Bubble Head! 

I love playing with shadows. Neato speedo! 

My brother Justin.  

My mouth is big and pretty. Look at those chompers!! 

A brother Grimm perhaps? I do not know, but I found it at the cemetary in Duluth... and I thought it was a perfect name to have on a gravestone. 

How I felt when I was listening to Norah Jones... It's lyrics from one of her songs 

MDA telethon set up at my little local tv station I work for. This year's telethon is just a couple of weeks away!!! Ooooohhhh.... how exciting. I love the multitude of cords in this one! We do it in a car dealership and they have this GIANT window that we have to cover with a giant white tarp with a whole pull and levey system thing. :0 

just a little cartoon 

This is my favorite house that I pass on my walk home from work up Mesaba Ave. I thought it had a classic look to it so I snapped a photo. 

Beans, beans the magical fruit! 

I really wanted a picture of my legs and our tent. I tried 20 times unil I finally got this one! It feels good to reach your goals. Even if they are little ones.  

A picture I took on my camping trip last weekend. Kayakers just happened to be walking in my shot. Perfect timing! 

Creatively Constipated

I am blocked. I have no more creativity. Somehow I got sucked dry. I don't know what did it or who did it. Well, for the sake of those who read my blog... I hope it returns soon. I REALLY hope it returns soon, because I am trying to put out a publication with my writer's group and I need to scribble out a few more things, but I'm dry. Nothing comes out when I hold a pen over blank paper! NOTHING!

I can't babble anymore about this creative blockage. I must shower and sleep so I can get up early and work work work work! But I only have a week and a half at my summer job... and 3-4 weeks at the main job. YAY! Poverty sets in soon! But I shall enjoy my free time. Ya gotta do it every now and then. Once a job starts ruling your life you have to cut it out until you find another job that you can sustain yourself on until it takes over your life to... and so on... and so on!

I'm excited though, because my roommate showed me a secret ninja shortcut home from downtown. Now I don't have to walk up 3 blocks of extreme steep hillage. YAY! Plus, the short cut is going through the courthouse and today I saw two little kids getting escorted into the court. They were shackled at the feet and wrists! I wonder what they did. They were between the ages of 7-12. Babies. Exciting, anyways.

Squeeze-cramp-squeeze-cramp-sweaty cauldrons

I'm hot and sweaty. I'm sick of working every second and then doing laundry in hour that I have between jobs. :( I want to start school again now. :D School is fun. I learn things and do things and talk to people I want to talk to. I'm more excited this year than I was for past years. I am quitting both my jobs so I will actually have time to do the things college students are supposed to. I am going to work a work-study job, either be a computer lab consultant or the gender issues/women's studies' office assistant. I am also going to do freelance work for the TV station I work at now. I still get to work on the hockey broadcast crew. Yippee. Should be fun. My classes are a lot different than before. I have ceramics (YAY!!!), Development of Creative Functioning, 2D design, Film & Culture, and a senior projecty thingie.
I have the WHOLE day off tomorrow. I have a dentist's appointment. God bless 'em. I like the flouride treatment. Mmm.... strawberry. I want some of those mouth-shaped foam things to make weird art with.

NeRdIsM:
you know you're a nerd when you are walking with your boyfriend in the KMart parking lot and start speed walking so he can't catch up to you... so you keep looking at him to make sure he's not gaining on you and you trip on a speed bump and plumet to the pavement. ::shakes head::
