Don't know where the time goes. I've been wanting to do something artistic for a while, but never seem to get around to it. I have several ideas for various things, but if I have the time I'm not in the mood, and if I'm in the mood I don't have the time. I did start work on a new avatar, fall based so I really need to either hurry it up or move on to a winter one. I also have a slew of old photos I could go through and upload. I just got back from a couple of days in Texas(went with my roommate to visit his girlfriend), and we went to the zoo. I'll try to get around to uploading a few shots. Speaking of the trip, I 'dropped'(the strap broke) my camera while there. Everything seems fine other than some scuff marks, but I might get it checked out before my trip to Australia. Speaking of which, since I don't think I've mentioned it on here, I'll be going to Australia in December. It's a place my sister has always wanted to go, and she made up her mind she was doing it. She didn't want to go by herself nor did anyone else want her to do so, I decided to take one for the team and go with her. I kind of want to get a tripod before the trip, but I'm not sure I'd actually use it. I'd feel kind of out of place setting up a tripod at a zoo. Also been wanting to get some filters. Hmm... might have to find stuff to sell on eBay to justify some cost expenditures.

In other news it's Fall, and October; my favourite season and month. I've gotten the impression though that it's going to be a quick autumn and jump quickly to winter. Normally I'm a fan of winter as well, but in addition to noticing a decline in my cold tolerance in the last few years, I've been trying to get in shape the last four months or so. Switching from going out in the day as opposed to night will help me for a while, and it's something I should be doing anyway. But between the increased precipitation and freezing temperatures making said precipitation slippery, I'll likely soon have some trouble jogging. But for now I'll enjoy my month.

Have more I can say, but I tend to ramble as it is and write too long of journals, so I think I'll cut it here.
