Does that sound like my cousin Vinnie? Lol! I crack myself up. A lot. I'm sure anyone reading this knows that about me or will soon. Anyway, my cousin called me. Unfortunately I literally had about 5 other things going on at the time and couldn't focus on her call and had to cut it short. I love my cousin. She absolutely brings out the best in me. I can't say that she and I go back a long time. It's been a while now, but not since little girls or high school like you so often here. See, I was friends with her ex. Over the course of their relationship, she and I became friends. Some how through the divorce, she ended up with me, and my "friend" fell off the face of the earth. So for those of you following along, she isn't even really my cousin. We are in this relationship by choice. She is one of the few people that has ever given me honest feedback. She also is not judgmental at all. She's also beautiful, and built.(bitch) I had an interesting reality check with that over New Years Eve in fact. I was looking at a collection of her ID's, D/L's, etc. I felt like I was looking at someone else's pictures. For whatever reason there was a disconnect between what I was seeing on those cards and the person I had in my head. I guess I just didn't look at her that way. She was always my friends partner and then one of my best friends, so I didn't even see her surface. No wonder she can always get so many hot dates. (again, bitch!) She's a great artist too. When I started trying to take myself seriously about being a photographer, I was getting hung up on artist vs photographer vs being good enough for either of those "titles." She was one of the two people I talked to about that whole subject. Her response was so damn on and right, I was floored. She has a way of seeing life that makes so much sense. I hope everyone has a cousin like mine.
