Long time, no post

My dear readers,
I apologize for not posting for so long.  But here is something, at least, to slake your thirst.  I am currently in China on a short vacations, well-earned, if I may say so myself, and so I am not on my usual computer set-up.  I just got back from Xi'An, home of the Terracotta Warriors and Great Goose Pagoda, last night.

I have my brand new Canon EOS Rebel T2i camera with me--picked it up from the delivery address the afternoon before I left.  I went nuts with it.  I filled the 32GB card before the 48 hr trip-within-a-trip was over and had to go back and delete the duplicate photos I had so that I could keep rolling and snapping.  When my trip is over, I plan on cutting together a short documentary on day-to-day life in modern China, with an emphasis on the milieu--the sights, sounds, and smells of the cities.  Going back through my photos this evening as I dumped the card onto my hard drive, I think I've got some good stuff to work with.

Because I know you're all wanting something from the trip right now, here's a picture of me in front of the terracotta warriors:

PSYCH!  Blogger is not letting me upload a photo, or is but is moving exceptionally slowly, so I'll try again later.

Rock on!
