A Moment of Pure Brilliance…
When I was recording the most recent podcast yesterday, I made the most brilliant statement…
“I have several friends that are about to have newborn babies.”
Because, you know, sometimes people give birth to older babies. Or toddlers. Or teenagers.
This is why my first few podcasts were done with a well written “script” in front [...]
Dream Big…
Dream big. Another photo taken for my photography class, and I snapped this with my cell phone camera before I turned the print in today. I love how the duck, front and center, looks like he just really wants to fit in with the flamingos.
I think this will be my picture [...]
I Shoot Film…
We worked on vignetting in Photo I class today, and this is my phonecam capture of the print that I turned in today. I call them the headless flamingos.
Socks!
Jaywalker 2 underway!
(I’m getting a new cell phone this weekend that doesn’t take craptastic photos. It will make the knitting posts *so* much easier. Yeah!)

Don’t Put All of Your Eggs in One Biscuit…
The Bushesque State of the Union 2006. Our children must be literized! [via Jay.]
Now I’m Curious…
How on earth does Katie Holmes go from looking rather pregnant on January 14th, to having a flat stomach on January 15th? [Via And Knitting.]
Seriously? That just doesn’t make sense at all. (Maybe this post should go under my “Abducted by Aliens” category too? *snark*)
Good Day.
The above photograph from our honeymoon; it is the view we had of the Pantheon every time we walked up the street in Paris to our hotel. This was from our first night in Paris, and the sun seemed to take forever to set, giving the sky the most amazing glow. It isn’t [...]

At the Butterfly Museum. Fancy photos tonight!
Perfect.
The first two years of my college career back in 1987-1989 were far from perfect. Picking a major that I ended up hating was probably a bad start. (Elementary education – I have no tolerance for ignorance, so what WAS I thinking?) My Mom & I still laugh sadly at the irony that [...]
As if I don’t have enough to worry about.

My parents got me a new lens for my camera for Christmas, so I had to go out and find photo subjects in the backyard to test it out!

I’ve had this ornament ever since I was a little girl. I think our neighbors gave it to me when I was about 3. I must have it on the tree every year – it just isn’t Christmas without it!
Happy Holidays to everyone! May Santa bring you everything on your list!

I miss having a thumb. I will get to see mine again on January 3rd, but until then, I am really limited. I can’t type, but my texting skills are definitely improving!

Beware of the club! (The “yes” is on the underside of my arm with the arrow pointing at my hand.)
Just to be safe.

The nurse and I really wanted to be sure that Dr. Hand knew where to cut, so she wrote “YES” on my arm at my request.
