54] {Come here Muffin!}

Our German exchange student arrived last night. She's definitely a country girl, she told us that "CV is BIG". I don't know how big the town is from where she lives but this place is petite as far as I'm concerned. She also doesn't eat meat {like me} so my family is going to have to get a little creative in their cooking the next couple of weeks.
I don't care though! She's cute. And her name is (phonetically cause I have NO idea how you'd spell it in.. ya know.. German) Minnow.

I want a little girl named Minnow!

53] {where ARE you?}

Ok ok, I LOVE headstones and epitaphs- we get it. In this one there is supposed to be a statue of the Virgin Mary whose eyes glow red after midnight on a full moon. Um? I love haunted places or things. We couldn't find her- which is alright because the place is GARGANTuous and it will probably take a full week of hardcore looking around to find her. That's alright though, I'm totally up for the challenge.

It was a really nice day, breezy, sunny, wonderful!

52] {pushing daisies}

The last couple days have been spent in the skull duggery looking for someone. We CAN'T for the life of us find the guy anywhere. He isn't where it says on the directory that he should be. So how's that for a mystery? Walking around we saw this, and others. Pictures-sometimes in colour-of the person pushing daisies underneath.
I'm not sure how I feel about it. Part of the thrill of graveyards- for me- is imagining what the people below looked like or did with their lives. It was a little unnerving to see this trend. But I liked this one. They look so happy.

50] {morning texts}

Alright, now you have to know a little something about me and morning texts (I always want to say sex but... ahem). I LOVE them, and I'm not sure why but I always receive really really good ones. Ya know the kind I'm talking about? Someone texts you late in the middle of the night or TOO early in the morning for you get them UNTIL you wake up. I have a list where I'm writing them all down.
I'll share that with y'all later.

I only know a few tricks for getting the smell of peppers OUT of your clothes.
Rubbing them against a stainless steal surface.
Pouring salt in with the detergent.
Pouring MILK in with the detergent.
Or ya know.. Fabreeze.

Either way, when I woke up and read this, I giggled. I went to bed early the night before- and this was waiting when I opened my blurry eyes. Spesh.

49] {rose bush}

48] {driving}

Yeah, another landscape. What can I say, my home is rockin'.

47] {water color}

46] {curly slush}

Love this. Much.

Saturday= Best Night Ever

43] {clean}

42] {B. House}

41] {campaigning days}

I love campaign days! Such a blast, and the art definitely makes my stroll around campus THAT much more enjoyable. I wish they'd allow us to display these kinds of things all semester- maybe have a different theme every week or have some kind of contest.
Sound good?

40] {apple}

I hate this picture more than any other one I've taken.
That's why it's on here.
I can't explain the logic.

39] {the desire next to hot tubbing}

38] {the canines}

So cute I could kill both of them.
But I won't. :D

37] {Dane Cook}

I ate an empanada for the FIRST time. It was delicious.
Dang. We look good.

36] {needlessness}

35] {too cool}

This is a long story.....short story?
Plan: bowling
Shoes: flip flops
Socks: in purse
Car: breaks down
Toes: freezing
=
Camel feet.
I sometimes surprise myself by how awesome I am.

34] {flesh eating plants}

The book I'm absorbing currently. It's fantastic! Check it out.

33] {this morning}

And finally with this photo I am back up to date with this photo a day project. It's been crazy trying to upload every day. Lots of late nights, and then the nice long break in which I didn't want to get ON the computer at all. Loads of sunshine today to distract me- but this is what I saw this morning. I'm in love. My home is beautiful.

32] {silk}

Yes, this is a recycled photo. I have lots of pictures dangling all over my white walled room. This is one of my favorites. I can't explain why except that Thailand was another life changing experience that made me realize just how much a change for the better is worthy although continuous and difficult sometimes.

31] {Valentines}

I love Valentines Day.

30] {painting roses red}

29] {sea turtle}

"Operation Stealth"
We nailed it.

28] {gut busting}

Now I don't know if anyone will think this is as hilarious as I do, but let me just say that I laughed and cried for a good ten minutes after watching this. I even burst out in a chuckle during work out tonight. It was a good day.

27] {happy trash}

26] {ryan}

You can't see the whole picture- but there's a key in the upper right hand corner. His life was the inspiration.

25] {cords}

It'll straighten out eventually right?
HA! That's what she said.

24] {pin}

23] {prospects}

Seriously? Who knows?

22] {woosh}

So by the time I thought about uploading my picture for yesterday I was in bed, dozing off to Bones. But here it is. Oddly, because of the confession that took place last night this is a good representation of "perspective" and "PERspective".

21] {lamp}

22] {sunshine}

Today was full of creamy, legitimate, sunshine. I honestly snatched a colorful beach blanket and traipsed (more like SPRINTED!) outside to our perfect cement ramp to lay out and absorb the sweet delicious {{Vitamin D}} that I've been deplorably deprived of. Six weeks of winter left, and it simply cannot go quick enough. But with little bouts of heaven like today, I think I'll survive.. I mean, I look pretty content right?

21] {vent}

20] {alley}

My winning streak has lasted 6 years. And yes, I wrote that right.
It's just one of those things.

19] {dead plants}

It has been a really good Sunday.

18] {murdock}

17] {magazine art}

Camera status: FOUND! In between the couch cushions. Thank GOODNESS I found it.

OH NO

A monstrosity of INTERNATIONAL proportions has occured.
My camera is missing.

16] {red obsession}

15] {early to class}

I wonder how many people have sat in this very room, in these very chairs.
Gross.

14] {rocks}

So, because nothings happening I'm starting to feel restless again. I want to be backpacking along the west coast with Wisteria.. NOW.
Beam me up please.

13] {peace}

"You glowed till' the end"

12] {pavlova}

Behold: A Pavlova. It's Australia Day today and with that comes a chuck wagon full of amazing Aussie food. I felt like stuffing my face, but thank you very much I only ate until I was comfortable. 365 days left till' the next Australia Day. Oh, and the company was exceptional.

11] {alice}

Saw this up on some campus sidewalk. I named her Alice.
