Oh blog. When will life ever give me some time?! School is all consuming. Not to mention I am trying to decide, print and frame photos for our apartment (which is WAY more time consuming than you could imagine), keep up with the shows my husband and I watch (a bonding time of sorts if you'll believe it), stay on top of school, not completely lose touch with my little tiny social life, help my mom move to Chicago....

...oh hey, did I tell you blog that my mom is probably moving to Chicago in less than a month? I couldn't be more thrilled. November is already proving to be a busy month what with school and all this planning and some birthdays to celebrate and school ending and thanksgiving and and and...

let me take a breath.

My mom gave me a little early present- a flickr pro account once again so I am trying to organize in my mind what photographs to post on there. I am also conceiving a new website up in my noggin and hopefully Christopher will help see that to fruition soon. I am really excited about this. Turns out I'm not great at keeping up with the blog and I just kind of want a formal website again. Sooo add that to the list.

It's been wonderful hanging out with friends though and knowing how gratifying friendships are when the friendship isn't just being upheld by one person. Who wants to always be doing all of the work? I think keeping up with friendship is definitely a form of expressing love for someone.

Okay I'm getting all mushy. Does anyone understand Geology and reading maps, especially when we're talking about topography? I'm taking an online Geology course that is kicking my butt this semester. I hope it doesn't ruin the pretty good grade point average I've managed to wrangle up but at this point I'm feeling pretty hopeless. I just don't understand these ideas. The text I get but the labs my professor posts seem absurd to me. I literally have no idea what they mean. I think this is because they are both a little unorganized and also I just don't get maps. Okay. I have google earth and google maps and know how to use them, what more do I need?! I am NOT looking forward to taking two math classes next semester. Let's not even talk about that.

Happy thoughts. Happy thoughts. Oh yes, soon Peter and Sexy Nexy will endure Chicagos killer winter by my side. Soon I will be 28. Soon I will have some film developed and scan it in and post it on the world wide webbers for all to see.

This is a ranty little post, I know I know. My mind is overpouring with thoughts and ideas - it's just the time that I lack!

So much love blog.

birthday / christmas wishlist update.

i found some amazing deals on my birthday wish staples, which were the leica d-lux 4 and the frye boots that i've desired for an entire year. that was probably the best deal of my life, i got "like new" frye boots that originally cost $238 for $25 (!!!) off of craigslist. you don't know how elated i am. what i love more than these boots is a freaking bargain.

at any rate, i still want/need all those little animals and if the fifi lapin lesportsac bag still is for sale somewhere that is also a must...but here is a new addition:



the fuji instax mini. it makes pint sized polaroids. WHY ISN'T THIS SUPER POPULAR?!

i'd seen this before on the lomography site and had forgotten about it until now and boy oh boy am i glad i remembered it. this is a must have. for sure.

okay just a few hours before we start our journey out east!

pictured above are some of the items necessary when embarking on a two week trip/tour to the east coast. i am so excited and a little nervous! i can't wait to hopefully see some familiar faces!

here are the tour dates, please come out if you can! it would be lovely to see you!



i am afraid though that when we return home, winter will be here. already leaves are turning colors and jumping onto the ground. and it's raining. do you know what happens when it rains? seasons change...that's what! rain is like a privacy curtain for seasons while they change over...seasons are classy you know? at any rate, one day it's summer...then it rains for a few weeks and BOOM. fall. it happened. then it's nice fall weather, leaves are all over, you're wearing a hoodie and a jean jacket, an occasional scarf and then it starts raining for a week and BAM...winter is here and everything is white. just like that.

leaving and seeing friends is exciting but coming home is exciting as well. linn & kyle are getting married (again) and then xavier & kristin are getting married and i have a few weddings to shoot, amy and i will possibly go to the art institute together and my mom is coming for a visit!!! i can't wait!

i am going to try my very hardest to post on here regularly from the road, internet pending.
