thus far..

So, life has been a wee bit busy. I just got done working 21 days in a row (sigh), but i think it was all worth it. I got confirmation today that my job is flying me to New Jersey to open a new store. It sucks that it took me a year to go to the east coast, but at least now i will be getting paid while i'm there. Also, today i bought a video camera (eeek!) so assuming i can get the hang of it, i'll probably start a vimeo. Until then, this is what my fall has been thus far... Puppy time!


And i learned how to do tilt-shift on photoshop. The idea is to make a picture look miniaturized. The really good tilt-shifts are done with actual tilt-shift lenses, but those are expensive & I'm poor. :D

Oh, Glorious summer.

I WENT SKYDIVING FOR THE FIRST TIME!!!
After getting rained out, we finally got to go. We had instructors on our backs, but it was still totally worth it. There's nothing like free-falling through the sky. I'd venture to say this was my biggest goal i accomplished this summer. Amazing.

I also got to spend lotsa time with my favorite fella, Jack. There's a dog park about 5 miles away from our new house, so he and his four legged roommate often get to go run around and play in a pond.



I have a really good habit of being where i'm not supposed to be. these pictures were taken in such a place. I finally found prettiness in kansas city!
Seriously, we couldnt have asked for the clouds to be prettier for sunset.


Overall, i'd say this was a damn good summer.
