You’ve all met Missy before. She’s the cuddliest one of my cats. Also, as evidenced by the photos, playing with her means you get cat hair all over your floors. It’s totally worth the sweep job though.  My red & brown shag rug is her favorite thing in my living room. Isn’t she...

I bought some beautiful resin earrings the other day from this wonderful store. This dreamy scriptacular amber pair will go with about half my work wardrobe. :) I’ve always had a thing for peacock feather-themed stuff and this pair was just begging me to buy them.  Now, this isn’t the...

It’s not often the forest invites you in to sample the secrets of a road past the bridge of...

I was out taking photos of pretty flowers… …and I accidentally took a picture of this little guy. Check out this 100% crop of the above photo. Man he’s like staring angrily at me and everything. Or posing. It’s hard to tell with spiders....

Take a walk through the park with me… Summer is...

What’s up buttecup?...

My deck houses two things. Some plants and some spiders. My chinese bellflower has grown so much and is ready to put out blooms! Here’s its first bud. I am super excited to see them bloom! I got to relax a bit last night but today’s been a whirlwind again. I’m not sure I’ll be...

I’ve been pretty terrible at posting this week.  You’ll have to forgive me. I have been getting destroyed at work, at boot camp, and at home trying to get things ready for a few events happening this weekend. Boot camp was so bad yesterday I had to hobble to my car to get home.  Worst...

A little lichen is growing alone on it’s own spacious branch. Love me some bokeh! Also should I start featuring more people posts on here? Believe it or not, most of my photography is of people and events but this blog feels like it’s more me-centric.  I have another site in the works, a...

Just ten minutes left in today but I did post! Window lurkers are wonderful little bits of dreaminess that always capture my mind when I glance over...

I have a confession. Friday Finds was meant to be a collection of cool items from throughout the week. What it evolved into was a collection of random stuff from Thursday night that I was specifically compiling for Friday Finds.  To avoid my overly large Thursday trawl though the internet I...

Triple whammy today. You all get a Friday Finds, a wallpaper & some photography! Lucky you. :) This is one of the funnier quotes I have heard before.  Multiple sources were quoted across the interwebs so I’m just leaving it unassigned. If I remember correctly, it’s an old...

It’s carnival...

I made a random wallpaper for fun with one of my favorite quotes. I like making art meaningful. How do you interpret the image? Resources: here, here and...

I don’t do a lot of self-portraits but I couldn’t help myself when I saw this mylar balloon. :) Something about big foil balloons that brings out a bit of the kid in us,...

This is an older song from Mike Posner’s latest album with vintage hints and visual shout outs to Duke University. It’s got a mellow sound with a shoulder bumpin’ beat.  Singing through his perfectly trimmed beard, his voice stirs memories and nostalgia for my...

I had a dream once....

This is my little batkitty. She goes out to eat grass and probably will barf in some undisclosed location in my home.  She turns six in August. :) I hope everyone had a good Mother’s day. This weekend was so busy it was ridiculous. I was out pretty much every night starting Thursday...

I found this tidbit on dav.d’s about page: No one asked Leonardo Da Vinci what brush he used on the Mona Lisa – we shouldn’t be occupied on the camera in the hand of a photographer. Oh truth, why must you destroy my reasons to get new toys?! Okay maybe I don’t need a pretty awesome...

Floating candles in glass jars are such a classic wedding decor piece. The fun part about them for me is how fun they make bokeh in pictures. This wine glass has a lot more magic to it with a little candlelit bokeh! I have a wedding coming up in July that I’m excited about. I’ve...

The beautiful ferns are all over the parks near my house. I’m going to start doing some running on my own. We only get out and run about once a week at boot camp. I’ve improved quite a lot over the last six weeks but I suspect I can do much better. Since I have such heavy exercise M-Th,...
