I have neglected my poor blog frightfully for the past month or so. And then (this is even worse), it was the end-ish of August anyway, so I decided, what the heck? I should go all of August without ...
I admit it, I slacked off this summer when it same to shooting portraits. However - as it was bound to happen - I eventually got sick of shooting inanimate objects (and cats). It was time to move on ...
This morning, I was in a wickedly bad mood. I swiped red polish off my toes two days ago and yet they still look bloody. I never made my bed today. If I had, I could have (according to some...
Today I donned my frilly red apron (not really) and spent some quality time in the kitchen. Living in a 1900s something Victorian means that a. I dont have AC and b. it gets really really (no REALLY)...
I swiped a shirt from my sisters closet yesterday. I should specify...it came from my fourteen-year-old sisters closet. Is that just plain sad? Or is it, in fact, awesome? This means that a) I fit in...
The rings from a wedding I helped shoot at the end of June. Humongous rock or what?!This ones mine. I was so worried about the ring. I even suggested that hubby propose with a cracker jack ring, that...
Im tiiiiired. And yet I really cant complain since the reason for the lack of sleep was a wonderful night of red wine and some excellent conversation with a dear friend. But I digress...Im home from ...
I have had ridiculous amounts of free time these past few weeks and yet, I still have the hardest time convincing myself to sit in front of the computer and write. I think I may have caught some sort...
July 4th, 2008Gravel crunches loudly under our feet as we cross the sunlit parking lot. Ahead, stairs beckon into the dim forest. A wooden sign announces that this is the way up to Looking Glass...
Coffee dates with a girlfriend really are the bomb.Its an excuse to wear something slightly nicer (after all, Ill be out in the world. Its not just me and the cats anymore, so I should look semi-nice...
I went to bed wayyy too late last night (or rather, this morning), which meant I raced home between jobs today for a cat nap. Unfortunately, Trix took this to mean that a cat needed to be involved. O...
The train is shrilling loudly, its insistent blasts disturbing the wide sheet of inky darkness that surrounds my apartment. I think maybe the train is trying to get my attention. Of all the strange q...

My persnickety roommate I really wanted to pick up a pizza from Pizza Hut. But not just any old pizza. It would be a large, stuffed crust, cheesy pizza scattered with black olives. And mayb...
The groomsmen were pinning on their corsages, the bridesmaids were strolling across the field towards the ceremony site when it began to drizzle. "What happens when it starts to rain?" I aske...
Ive been feeling stressed lately. A lot. a. Crunch time has rolled around and Drews applying to the first batch of schools. b. So of course I start to worry about the future. c. The little blocks in ...
Feet are a little sore, my two CF cards ran home with someone else (sniff), and the back of my left ankle is sporting a sweet little red welt (my clumsy self getting caught up with an electrical cord...
Some photos I found floating around in Bridge. They were sad about never having seen the light of the computer screen, so I did some editing and posted away!a birthday present from hubspita pizzas!se...
My writing class ended in April…but then that class of fifteen or so morphed into a small writing group of five that meets every other week. I’ve heard of writing groups who share their stories with ...
Do you know how frustrating it is to do anything on an iPad (besides read a book)? Granted, the Internet connection IS slow, so thats not doing me any favors. But the screen is so small. My fingers a...
A shower first thing in the morning.That bright burst of juicy flavor that is Suaves Green Apple shampoo.Crunchy Cheerios inside a lemon yellow bowl, happily turning soggy.Orange juice housed in a De...
So Ive been thinking...I have friends who are married right now. I have friends who are married and pregnant. I have friends who are single. Everybody is in a different stage in their life and honest...
Im tellin ya, eggs are THE way to go. When too much time goes by, my sister and I require a long phone chat (try 1 hr, 38 minutes, and 33 seconds of long!). We had one of those today and one of the r...
Im prying my eyes open because the little pieces of plastic sticking to my pupils are slowly but surely drying up. The computer screen is turning blurry. *yawn* I was going to rhapsodize about how, e...
Wowzers. I was catching up on my blog reading and found my dream dinner. Love and Olive Oil featured red-wine spaghetti on her blog today and I tell ya, it looks dee-licious. Amazing. Like, Id love t...

We were eating cheese the other day, Drew and I. Mine was bundled snugly in my veggie wrap, he was eating a big, yellow and white flecked slice of the stuff. He starts talking about Gus (who? I wonde...
