Jellyfish

Here's a fun fact for you.

Jellyfish have managed to survive on this Earth for 600 million years.

That isn't even the really cool part

They've survived this long without a brain, heart, or eyes.

If I didn't have a brain, heart, or eyes, I'd be dead.

Or at least really, really bored.

This isn't the post for today-- I'm cooking up a post later that focuses on postmodern female photographers. It's going to be awesome.

But I went to the Long Beach Aquarium over winter break with some of my friends from grad school, and I found out that crazy fact, and just thought of it again.

No brain, heart or eyes. There's a metaphor in there somewhere.

Back with a big-ass post later. For now will keep it short and sweet. I continue to be...

Affectionately,
