today I realized that there will be another major media for my children and grandchildren to see what I was like when I was young.
video.
think about all the videos on youtube, or facebook, or just on your camera. and think of your children watching them. I don't know it seems kinda weird and kinda cool at the same time. cause then they can see that I was just a regular kid like them (or a complete weirdo) but at the same time do I want them to see that?
I don't know. it's kinda hard to describe my apprehension toward the concept. I guess it just kinda feels like there's less for me to tell and more for me to show to my children. oh man - "show don't tell" great, thanks mr. mercer.
either way, it'll make a good family night someday to sit down and watch my old mr. millard west tapes. gosh that day is going to be so embarrassing.

i can't wait for your children to see you in your "running" outfit. i need a video camera so i can keep up with the times i suppose.
but it's okay, because then you can let your children know that it's okay to be embarrassed and embarrassing. it's not like they would stop looking up to you.
