Why did you roll your dice, show your cards

Look at me actually doing an upload two days in a row! As busy as I am I want to try to keep uploading even if they arent super good photos.... well I have some exciting news. I waaas going to start saving for a new camera (Canon 60D) beginning with the 0 I just put in my savings but instead I am using that towards a flight to LAS VEGAS TO SEE BRANDON FLOWERS. Much thanks goes to Mackie though, one of my old Green Day friends who goes to school there and is letting me stay with her and coming with me to the show. If she wasnt there I probably wouldnt be going.
Yeah yeah judge me, but to me travel is such an important thing in my life. Nothing compares to the feeling of seeing a new city for the first time live in person, feeling the different vibes and comparing it to your own home. As much as I want a new camera, that will always be there and I figure that Las Vegas is a city I'd like to see eventually, so why not go when one of my favorite artists is going to be playing (a hometown) show! This was an impulse decision and I just bought the concert tickets (plane tickets are to come next week when I get paid) but I have the same excited feeling as I did when I bought my Green Day San Francisco tickets. I love to travel. Especially when its to see great friends and music.
57 days til Las Vegas! :D
Random fact of the day is obviously:
I LOVE TO TRAVEL. Always will, I will never stop. Whether it's monthly roadtrips to Dutchess county, spantaneous trips to Boston or other northeastern cities or annual trips to Florida to see my cousin or random spur of the moment decisions like this one, I love it. It keeps my life exciting and gives me new places to see and new experiences and nothing compares to that feeling of seeing new places.
Why did you roll your dice?
Show your cards?
Jilted lovers and broken hearts
You're flying away while I'm stuck here on the ground

This vintage Christmas greeting card illustration (circa 1910) was scanned from my personal collection and the color restored (digitally remastered). I also retouched it to remove scratches, cracks, smudges and age spots. This is typically about a 3 hour process.
