Got to be to work by nine
And if I had an air-o-plane
I still couldn’t make it on time
Just another Manic Monday…

Using no more than 10 nouns, and ONLY nouns, describe yourself. female; photographer; daughter, sister, friend, ex-wife, cook, traveler, reader, questioner (thanks Stephanie!)

If you owned your own store, what would you sell? Photographs, of course! Maybe some handmade jewelry, too.

If you were to name the most comforting thing for you to hold in your hands, what would it be? My camera

Also, Happy Birthday to Lauren! We used to work together at the company I’m still at…and she’s probably the reason I resigned from certain aspects of my job (which was really a GOOD thing) and she’s definitely the reason I still have a job, as she resigned shortly thereafter, allowing me to stay on (I would’ve been unnecessary had she stayed). Funny how things work out!

That’s Lauren and her sweet dog, Gizmo, in the first shot; the yellow rose is a picture I promised I’d print for her and have been slacking on doing. The ring is her engagement ring and the salad shot will make her laugh; she used to go down to the cafe and get me salads at lunchtime. Since I’m VERY particular as to what goes in them…I’d give her a list She was so cool about that!

Happy Birthday, Lauren! I hope you have a GREAT day!!!
