Random Lovely's from last week

One of the many reasons I love my job is the amount of completely random things I am able to take pictures of in a single day. These are just a few gems from the first week of summer camp:

(Exhibit A) Nothing says safety for your stuffed ferret like Jesus and Spiderman!

Staples with your morning coffee, anyone?




















And, my personal favorite:
Battery in the Crock Pot.

Long Time: No Post

Sorry for the utter lack of posts, life sometimes gets in the way. I am beginning to feel like I can't trust my brain to do anything with any consistency. However, after this weekend I am thinking the saying: "When it rains, it pours," is accurate.

First, my boyfriend and I have been in the process of buying a house for what seems like forever. We have had at least 5 different escrow closing dates since our offer was accepted for a condo down the street from where we live now. As a result, my house is an atrocious mess- complete with packed boxes lining the walls and camping under the dining room table. Not ideal for art-making. None-the-less, I have completed a few pieces, but have yet to do anything with them...should be able to post some pics soon.

Second, the last week of school is upon me...like a truck. Usually not too stressful, this last week is turning out to be an editing nightmare. Events at the school were pushed back and delayed this year, so now I am scrambling to film and edit multiple things at once with only a couple days to complete them and get them on air for the morning broadcast. The icing on the cake was a parent hunting me down last week and bullying me into making a copy of her children's acts in this years talent show...in my spare time. Sure thing, thanks.

In the midst of the obnoxiousness, we managed to score artists passes for the Live 105 BFD music fest last Sunday. It was like Christmas. I had originally purchased lawn seats and ended up being backstage for everything. The highlight was definitely Matt and Kim..they were amazing, blew me away with their energy on stage. Jamie was playing one of those basketball shooting games while I was taking pictures with Brian from the Silversun Pickups. After the picture was taken Brian stood and watched Jamie take shots with our friend Justin. Freaking unreal.

So that being said, I have been freaskishly stressed and awesomely amazed...now I need a nap.
