If I'm going to do these YTTs I really need to keep up with them. I'm trying to make time for them but, without fitting it into my routine it may continue to get neglected. Then again, I wonder if anyone else is reading them if it's just for my own sake that I write them. So, I ask you, should I continue doing these?

If I do continue, should I just keep doing it whenever I can, or should I try to set up a schedule for it?

Now, on the fun.
h2. Thursday
My photo session went very well. It was my first photo session with this girl, so, we spent most of the time getting used to one another. I think we got some great images but a second session is definitely in order. The second session is almost always better.
With this model, I decided to try a particular shot that I've been working towards for quite some time now but have never managed to get to it look just right. I want to take this concept one step further and really make it something incredible but it is difficult, time intensive, and a bit expensive to produce. So, I've been trying to find a model that I work well with to get a decent example of the shot in the studio. Once I find her, then we'll move it up to the next level. I haven't had a chance to look over the results just yet, but I'll let you know when I do.
h2. Friday
We went out for a birthday dinner with some friends and then out for coffee. Good times all around.
h2. Saturday
Tried to go hiking near Oklahoma that morning. By the time I managed to find the trail and get ready to go, it was so hot I didn't want to get out and walk alone, so I drove around a lot more, photographed a bit down near the lake and then headed home.
Later that day Jess and I worked on the book. It is now within 1 hour of completion. I hope I'll have time tonight to put on the finishing touches and send it to the printers to get a proof. If no corrections are needed to the proof, I'll place the order for the real thing.
Saturday night we had drinks, ate Chinese food, and played Taboo with a couple of friends.
h2. Sunday (Yesterday)
Jess and I decided head out to Cedar Hill State Park for some hiking. It was HOT! Too hot. I got within 15 feet of two very large vultures though, which was very impressive and a tiny bit scary. I saw tiny bird tracks in the sand under the shelter we were in, so I'm think we may have come a bit close to their nest.
Afterwards we went to my parents house to visit with them. The four of us went out for sushi then came back to visit with my nieces. Jess and I left around 8:30, stopped by "Sprouts":http://www.sprouts.com/ on the way home and then watched a little TV before heading off to bed around 11pm.

Work from home. I'm not sure what we're doing for "the show":http://gentlenews.com/theshow/. Live? Record it on Tuesday and then just post it? Not do it at all? I'm not sure. I need to talk to Justin still.

Possible photo adventure for father's day, possible dinner and cards with some friends one night, possible dinner with some other friends another night, photo session anyone?
