Sapid Existence at Successful Blog
I’ve submitted Sapid Existence to Liz Strauss’ Blog-to Show. That was the easy part. The hard part is waiting another few hours to see what comes out of that. I guess my expecting to see it when I woke up is another example to egocentric thinking.
I’m hoping that things go well with that. I’ve gotten some some responses that have made me very happy, most recently this one from SuRi:
I wonder if you are planning a future in professinal sports photography. I know you have been published in your school newspaper from previous posts, but your sports photos are good enough to be in sports magazines (not that I look at many of those, but my husband does and your shots are right up there with sports illustrated)
Every time I hear that, I start to wonder if it’s something I should persue more activly. So if anyone knows where I can tart to do that in a place other than with newspapers I would love to hear about it. I just don’t want newspapers because I like to have a few days to go over my stuff and get it ready.
Fun With Google
I was relatively bored, so I decided to search for my name in Google. The results were a bit surprising.
I don’t expect to beat people who have the name in the domain name. But I’m #3 and 5! How sweet is that?
Out of more curiosity, I tried the image search. Again, happiness. Nothing on Page 1 or anything like that, but I do have two on Page 2 (this post and this other post on Sapid Existence) and Page 4 had this one, although why it picked up on the archive for that day and not just the post itself is beyond me.
But not all is happy. I guess I need to start watching myself now. Potential employers can very easily look me up. And with those two other blogs of mine linking here, I’ll probably need to watch myself here too. Oh well, I think I can live with that.
