Big Days
.
Today, I shoot movie stills for the first time in my life. I'm a little nervous. I'm not worried about my photographic skills; I'm worried about negotiating my photography with everything else that's going on without getting in anyone's way. Wish me luck!

In other news, I got a new student named TK this week. TK's mom committed suicide when she was 7. Her dad went to jail. Her parents' friends adopted her, but then physically abused her. She got put into foster care. Her current foster mom packed up her backpack, through it out the front door, and then locked the door when TK went out to get it. She still came to school that day. I was the first person she ran into. She hadn't slept and she hadn't eaten.
Me? -- I wish I could have an orphanage staffed by clones of myself and/or like-minded people.
Fuck Shithead Foster Parents.
