Today

Today:
I coughed up a lung..maybe even 2....
I tried to love my hair
I tried to love my brides maid dress...
I tried to reach Krystal.

Then:
I still was coughing up lungs
I didn't love my hair
I banished my dress to the closet
I asked Krystal if she was alive.

That's what she said:
Krystal said "No"

After:
I found puff, while still coughing up lungs
I didn't clean my room
I watched "Looney Toons"
I watched "Inception"

Inception:
Makes my head hurt...in a good way.
Makes me watch for strange things and then connect strange things,
until the strange things are normal.
Yet they aren't normal....
I'm not normal
I don't want to listen to country love songs.

Ponders:
How many times do we re-do something in life?
Do we come back again and again until we do it right?

Limbo:
I'm stuck in limbo when it comes to ANYTHING creative
I can't edit pictures.
I can't crochet
I can't even color a silly picture of a duck.
I wish I knew how to knit.

Wrong:
What did I do?

Song of the day:
Never Enough- Holiday Parade

You had better Shape up.

So ever since watching the second episode of GLEE!
I have had "You're the one that I want" stuck in my head.
After that, the Floodgates broke and now all these songs from musicals are flooding in.
There's no blizzard in Utah county, but there's a flood of musical numbers!

SONG OF THE DAY: I don't wanna to be in Love ( Anthem) - Good Charlotte

Wheezy

I seem to have caught something....

sadly it is not a duck:(

But a cold.

Mr. Cold has decided to awaken the monster inside me.

ASTHMA!

My not so pretty monster had been quietly slumbering deep inside since April.

Mr. Cold decided he had slept long enough.

So now I huff and puff and wheeze.

Stupid wheezy!

I sound like a chain smoker and I can't go 5 minutes with out coughing, choking and gasping.

This means that out comes my some what geeky sidekick

Puff. (inhaler)

Puff is like a socially awkward friend.

You love him so much!

but gosh he can be embarrassing!

But you can't just ditch your friend.

that's not nice.

On the side now....

* I don't have a picture of my and Puff, so stay tune.

* Tomorrow I am going to be a creeper.

I'm gonna go walk around the streets of SLC and take pictures of random people.

I am a bit scared and I am worried about storms :/

So you may have to stay tune for that too....

* Thoroughly Modern Millie is stuck in my head

P.S. It's closing night of FOOTLOOSE at Timpanogos High School.

*I believe that is all....

Music

We're caught in the Crossfire

A Heaven and Hell
Hours pass, and she still counts the Minutes

That I am not there
Cause none of us thought it was gonna end that way

I don't wanna be in love

And I don't understand all the things you've seen

You and your big dream

Crossfire

Around 3 AM
most people are asleep
I'm not most people....
I was awake and restless
My Kitty didn't want to cuddle
My feet were cold
and a strange light was glowing through the window.
Luckily my chair was soft and comfy
and I found the remote.
*click*
Oh my....
It's Brandon Flowers
On a Jay Leno re-run.

Brandon Flowers sung me to sleep.

ANYONE HAVE SUGGESTIONS FOR MOVIES/ TV SHOWS TO LOOK UP????????

Prideful as ever

It's a Pride and Prejudice day.

I'm currently ( Always have been...) in love with the Kira Knightly version.

Nothings better for pain, then a Jane Austen tale of "love"

I love how this story is not Sappy.

I really have no need for sap today

Then again I'm sure many of you could argue this is a very sappy movie...

But I find no sap in it today.

Sadly I must turn off my movie ( right as it's getting to the good part...), log of the computer and go pick up Aidan.

-Me

Ooops

I haven't blogged today.
and yet...
Now I have.

Goals

Apparently BLOGGER no longer will allow me to paste things....
I had a great quote from Elizabethtown (that had nothing to do with goals) that I wanted to share:(

Any Who,

Goal: Blog everyday ( Though my life is not that exciting people!)

Additional Goal: Add a picture or two for Carmen

Question: Dose this post count for the day?

Photoshop

Today is November 17th 2010
Two years ago EXACTLY I did my first "Photo shoot"
I had always had my camera with me and would take, to every ones GREAT annoyance, a million pictures of my friends, but this was the first time I took "posed" pictures.

Photo Shoot: Rock Stars
Models: Kam, Jose and Jason.

Jose was all for being a rock star, but Kam and Jason took some convincing...
Jason had burnt his finger that day and was cranky
Kam just hates pictures. period.
I think it helped that Katie needed these pictures for her photo class:)

"Ethnic Accident"

As you can see,

I took these pictures with a simple "point and shoot" digital camera and I forgot to take the date stamp off....Oops!

P.S. Katie is also a wonderful photographer! Check her out! http://katiechristinaphotography.blogspot.com/

Something We All Need

I need (really want...) to do a photo shoot that means something!
Don't get me wrong! I love my fun fantasy photo shoots with my friends...
But, I want to create a picture that some one can look at and draw strength or hope or power from it.
I want to touch someone's life. ( really I'd settle for touching a minute of their day)

Theme: Waiting for a Change

So as I sit here at my computer with photo editing mind block...

*I think of the exact people I would want to Shoot ( with a camera) if I was brave enough to ask them.

*I read Carman Thorley's blog (http://www.coffeeflavouredsatire.blogspot.com/) because her words in a strange way always make me feel brave.
p.s. You really should check out her blog :)

* I play the song "How to Save a Life" by: The Fray repeatedly through my head

* I also may ponder "Raise Your Glass" by: PINK

*I don't text

* I make lots and lots of grammar, spelling and punctuation mistakes

* I mostly just sit, think, dream and feel increasingly un-brave.

I really want to make a change, ya know?
