Cordillera Car Club

I took this picture at the Cordillera Car Club meeting on Saturday:



Pretty much the best photo shoot everrrrr. I'm going to miss it out there!

I'd "Wear" It...

While I was supposed to be working this morning, I made this fabulous bumper sticker instead:

Cleaning

Why is it that things are only ever dirty when I have a LOT of other things to do?

Jeanna: sitting in front of the computer, staring at a design she's been working on for way too long, wishing it would just finish itself.

Dirty Things: chirping, in their dirty little voices, 'Jeanna, clean me! You have nothing better to do! Wouldn't it be so much fun right now?'

And so, I get up from the computer, and suddenly I find a giant number of things to clean.
From my laundry that needs to be hand-washed (that pile thanks me for days like this; without them, I'd probably never wear those things again) to the little vase that some of my makeup brushes go in (yeah, I don't think that thing has EVER been cleaned), I have found countless things to clean today. All because I don't want to finish this "puzzling" project that's been looming over my head for a few weeks now.

Pretty soon, I'm going to run out of things to clean, and then I'll have to sit down and do my work. So far this weekend, I've vacuumed the carpet, swept/swiffered the tile floors, organized the closet, dusted artwork, microfibered the TV, swept the balcony and rearranged the plants... those are normal things, right? How about tooth-brush cleaning the balcony doors, hand-scrubbing Otto's litterbox and mat, lint-rolling the couch and chair, scoured the tub and toiled with bleachy stuff, tidied the bookshelves... not to mention the hand laundry and the brush vase.

Now, I'm looking for errands to run, things to cook, or people to hang out with. ANYTHING... to not have to get this project done.
Geez. How did I make it through college?!

One Of Those Days..

It's been one of those days...



And unfortunately, it's not getting any better!

Dodging Ducks

So I'm sitting at the Duck because I promised my fellow co-workers I'd have some content finished tomorrow. I should not have picked the Duck to try to accomplish this incredible feat of daring, for a few reasons if not more:

1. The beer here is way too good. I can get a mini-glass and tell myself that is all I'm going to have, and then that mini-glass turns into three mini-glasses and I'm not typing as quickly as I should...

2. There are people here that I know, and there are people here that I really like to talk to, and there are also people here that I want to "dodge"... and hide from. This poses a huge dilemma: smile and converse, or huddle in my shaded corner? Hmm...

3. It's freaking beautiful outside, and they're always playing good music, and the ducks like it too so they dance. What is better than watching dancing ducks in the afternoon sun? Certainly doing work just gets in the way of this.

4. It's the best place for overheard conversations. Right now, the nice table of ladies next to me is discussing one of the ladies' trip to the beach this weekend. Evidently her significant other bought her a new dress. And new shoes. And a ring. OR something. And they were all talking about someone that I know. Awkward.

5. I love the waitstaff, and I always want to invite them to sit down and have a beer with me. Keith, is that allowed?

Overall, my time at the Duck this afternoon was pretty productive and a nice change of pace. I definitely need to enjoy my afternoons like this more often...

10,000

Yesterday at Comanche Trace I took my 10,000th picture using my 40D. I remember when I took my 10,000th picture using my Rebel--it was at a Trinity Basketball game.

The picture, for your viewing pleasure:



Not too bad, huh?
