Four Days ((the last post.))

Tuesday, October 24th, 2006

This is going to be my last post for a while. I am marrying my Nathanael, my Funnel, on Saturday.
The two things I am looking forward to most about our wedding day are seeing him for the first time as I walk down the aisle with my dad, and our first dance as together to “The [...]

Eight days.

“There are too many people, too angry at a world that isn’t in the least bit angry with them.”
Today, I was stopped at a stop light on my way to Wendy’s for lunch, and a truck behind me layed on his horn because I didn’t go fast enough for him after the light turned green.  [...]

Girls’ Night ((Twelve days)).

Monday, October 16th, 2006

On Friday, Ann, Jamie and Joanna threw me a girls’ night dinner with some of my favorite ladies!  It was really sweet and a lot of fun.

For dinner, we had angel-hair pasta, salad, garlic bread and miniature chocolate cupcakes (mmm…)
Ann, Jamie, Sarah and Lauren
Danielle, Amber and a drunk-looking me.
After dinner, [...]

When I first started my job seven weeks ago, I thought it was pretty good. It was easy, non-stressful, and it didn’t require a lot of intellect. Now, I’m starting to get to the point of frustration and boredom when I am here. I think that the part of my brain that does things like [...]

Artist of the week – Julian Beever

Tuesday, October 10th, 2006

Julian Beever is an English artist who’s famous for his sidewalk chalk art on the pavements of England, France, Germany, Australia and Belgium.  I’ve worked with chalk before and I know how messy it can get and how difficult it is to be precise.  It is unreal how he can transform a space.
Here are just a few [...]

Once the realization is accepted that even between the closest human beings infinite distances continue to exist, a wonderful living side by side can grow up, if they succeed in loving the distance between them which makes it possible for each to see each other whole against the sky.

Lomography. ((Twenty-two days)).

Friday, October 6th, 2006

I have found something that makes my heart swell and I really, really, really want it.
It is this camera, the Lomography Supersampler:

It’s only $34.95 on Amazon and kind of unpredictable (no viewfinder, zoom or flash) but that makes it fun, and it takes the sweetest pictures and action shots.  It has four little lenses, so it takes [...]

The Protected Post below.

Thursday, October 5th, 2006

I password-protected the post below, but anybody (EXCEPT FUNNEL) is allowed to read it.  I really want everything about how I will look on our wedding day to be a suprise for him.
Basically, I am trying to decide on a hairstyle, so I would appreciate if you could help me out and leave me a [...]

Protected: Wedding Hair.

Thursday, October 5th, 2006

Okay.  I need help choosing a hair-do.  I had a hair trial a couple of months ago and I felt very “ehhh” about it.  It was my fault.  I went in not knowing what I wanted, and I showed her a photo of my dress and told her that I wanted the sides twisted back, [...]

Twenty-four days.

What a lovely weekend this past one has been.
I have pictures (and stories) to share soon.
Probably this weekend, when I have access to a camera cord.
Last night Funnel and I went to see The Science of Sleep.  I loved it.  And I realized that the first movie we ever saw together (before it all began) [...]
