Hipstamatic El Train Waiting

Tina and I were on our way to the airport this afternoon waiting for the train to O’hare when this hipsta-chick walked onto the platform. I had to snap a shot of her.

Only seemed reasonable to get a hipstamatic shot.

Enjoy!

Good news or bad news first?

Tina and I are flying around getting things in order to leave our house for a couple days. Our hearts are breaking because we have to leave our animals.

I have tons to get in order, and we need to leave in an hour.

The bad news is that we will have to forego seeing regular-reader Luis V. while in NYC. I thought the shooting schedule was going to be more lenient, because the client has been screaming about their budget, but now they have me working two 10 hour days and one 4 hour. It doesn’t make sense. That’s double what the budgeted.

The good news is that we’ll make a little more money while there. It might add a little stress, but it’ll add some income. So there’s tradeoff right?

I gotta run. I’ll iPhone update as much as I can.

Cheers everybody.

Apropos to the Rob Bell conversation

I’ve posted a couple times about what’s now known as RobBellapapalooza™. It’s the controversy that is stemming from the publishing of his new book, and whether or not he thinks everybody goes to heaven or not.

I don’t have anything personal to add. I haven’t read the book yet, but I look forward to breezing through it if I get my hands on it.

But Hemant Mehta posted on it early this morning and I thought I might redirect you toward Mehta’s post (here). It’s solid.

I love it when “friendly” gets strong arm-ish.
