so, i am going to start trying to use this thing again. i mean, why not, you know?

why not?

for those of you who i don't really speak with, or who don't have tumblrs, i have started selling prints of things online. i quite like the photos i'm selling prints of - it's mostly old work right now, photos that i think are the best i've ever taken.

these are what's for sale:







the black and white ones will even be hand-printed by me at home! and there is free shipping till monday! i'd really appreciate it if you took the time to check it out: jameaterphotos.bigcartel.com

thanks!

i submitted a picture

i will be doing more of that now. i got a memory card reader and everything. you can't read my memories though, not whichever ones you want and whenever you want them. i'll share some though, i promise.

ps - i deleted all the deviations in my inbox cause i don't want to look through a bajillion but i want to see cool stuff from you cats and kittens so let me know.

so i kind of forgot that this existed. just a little bit.

i've also been without a cord for my camera. but on friday, i will be purchasing a memory card reader, and there will be a barrage of (hopefully) semi-decent photos that i can upload. i've also been going through loads of my old photos, so i have some things to upload in the meantime -  and i will probably do so tonight!

i am in winnipeg right now; i've been living here for the past few months. things are pretty okay.  it's hard to sum it all up quickly, so i'll just say i'm alive and surviving and that is a good thing.

i missed this site! i'm going to try not to forget about it again.

so for those of you who did not know, approximately 4 weeks ago, it was decided that i should relocate to the wonderful city of winnipeg, manitoba. you may have noticed that i've been scarce lately, and that's because the move was sudden, immediate.

i'm sitting in my new apartment, having been in this city for almost two weeks now.

i brought with me remarkably little, i think, seeing what my roommates have with them. i am homesick, a little bit, but not very much. it's mostly the kind of longing that settles in your stomach when you realize that you haven't talked to your best friend in two weeks, and you won't see her until you go home, which might not be for months - maybe even so long as a year. i also really want a cigarette. this will be my fifth day without one. i'm not quitting; i'm just broke. literally. there's about fifty cents in my bank account right now.

it's not all bad, though. in fact, it's pretty wonderful. our apartment is fairly photogenic, and i can't wait to have some posters mailed to me so i can tack them to the wall. i'm going to buy tape later, when i have some cash, so i can put some prints up around where i'm sleeping.

on top of that, i've already made a small handful of friends with similar interests, tastes in music, etc, and have been informed that there's a local microbrewery. i have high hopes for my year here, even if there are little dark spots in some aspects of things. i'm not going to let that bullshit ruin my fun.

right now, i'm stealing internet from the university of winnipeg. we should have our own internet soon, which will mean i'll be on the IRC and/or aim, and can use facebook. i miss you good folks. i'll be working through the two hundred some odd deviations in my inbox over the next couple days.

it's nearly 6 am, which means, i may or may not attempt sleep again sometime soon, so i'll leave you with that.  if you want to send me mail, which you knowwww you do, let me know and i will give you my new address!

all my love
