Tomorrow is the last day of September, and the end of the 3rd Quarter of 2009. What does that mean? Why, it means I need to finish up my Quarterly Resolutions! Specifically, the one I’m hung up on reads something like, “Finish working on the house.” It’s a huge goal, and I’m well aware of [...]

Wow, three blogs to update now! I am feeling the pressure. Well, sorta, anyway. I’ve updated the new retro blog several times this week, and it might end up being something of a time suck, while I manage to ignore the photo blog for weeks on end. But they serve different purposes. I have an [...]

Project Updates & The Real Beginning of Autumn
September 22nd, 2009 · 1 Comment · Ongoing Projects, Photography, What I Did Last Weekend
Well, now it’s actually fall, even though everyone thinks fall begins over Labor Day weekend, and starts pretending it is fall when the kids in this area go back to school in mid-August. AND it’s been one of the coolest summers ever, according to this article in yesterday’s Columbia Tribune. The ninth coolest for Columbia [...]

Wedding with Silver Box: Brooke & Jeff
September 22nd, 2009 · No Comments · Weddings
Another wedding with Kim of Silver Box Photographers! This is a link to a wedding that we shot a few weeks ago, but I also shot another wedding last weekend. The wedding was in Carrollton, Missouri, in the bride’s grandfather’s backyard. Beautiful! But it started to drizzle right before the ceremony. Luckily, somebody put in [...]

Infectious!

So it turns out that I did have strep throat. The nurse called yesterday and was extremely confusing until I made her spell everything out for me (after she confirmed that, yes, she was talking to the right patient). What she was trying to tell me was that the results I got on Thursday were [...]

Plannnnnnnnnnns (Like a Zombie Would Say It, If a Zombie Made Plans)
September 11th, 2009 · No Comments · Endless Blathering
And… now I’m feeling better. I don’t even know what I had, actually, except lethargy and a sore throat. I feel like the lethargy doesn’t count, you know? Like, I shouldn’t call in sick just because I’m beyond tired and my brain isn’t functioning and I don’t want to get out of bed at all. [...]

Here’s What I Did Instead
September 8th, 2009 · No Comments · Holidays, What I Did Last Weekend
First day after Labor Day, a time when everybody pretends it’s getting close to autumn instead of continuing to celebrate summer, even though summer will last for another three weeks. Or maybe it won’t! This year’s super cool summer weather in our part of the world has resulted in some tinting of the trees around [...]

Nah, I’m Not Going to Nebraska
September 3rd, 2009 · No Comments · Endless Blathering, Ongoing Projects, Travel
Well, that didn’t take long, did it, that about-face? Somewhere between the making of half-a-dozen lists yesterday and stopping by the library to see if they had Springsteen’s Nebraska album (I mean, what would be better road music for Nebraska than that?), I started to get really unmotivated by the whole experience, and wishing that [...]

Oh, Yeah, I’m Supposed to Go To Nebraska Tomorrow
September 2nd, 2009 · No Comments · Ongoing Projects, Travel
All of a sudden, it’s Wednesday, September 2, and I’m supposed to leave for my trip to Nebraska tomorrow night. Or Friday. Or whenever I get around to it. I haven’t made any reservations. I just have a bit of a plan, but nothing to hold it in place except the goal of hitting certain [...]
