FGR asked for 13 things. Here they are.

1. I tend to leave drawers and cabinets open just slightly. Is it because of the noise they make upon closing or because I just can’t seem to find closure or want to cancel any possibilities? Yeah, it’s probably not that deep. Maybe I’m just lazy.

2. I can fit my fist into my mouth – and never realized there was anything porny about that until AFTER college. Wow. How many sleepless nights did that “innocent party trick” spawn?

3. If a book doesn’t grab me – forget it. Life is too short to read books I don’t enjoy. As a librarian (that makes me an expert, people), I give you permission to do the same.

4. Goofy things I love:

Cheesy romantic comedies that I will stop to watch again and again (The American President, Wimbledon, Ever After, That Thing You Do, etc.)

Guilty pleasure TV: Gilmore Girls, Beverly Hills 90210, West Wing, America’s Next Top Model. I can watch repeats of any season at any time.

I love chocolate, don’t get me wrong…but give me Smarties, SweetTarts, JuJubes or red licorice. Yum

Favorite color: red

Stranded on a deserted island: book Italo Calvino’s If on a winter’s night a traveler; cd Violent Femmes Violent Femmes; my Land’s End orange shirt and a pair of men’s Levi’s 501. Barefoot is good.

5. I wish I could open (or just find) a clothing store called “Normal Girl” with clothes to fit real women (over 5’7”, over 160 lbs, size 9+ shoes) and that don’t look like cross-dressing outfits or tents. Shoulder pads are not allowed.

6. My parents divorced when I was 9. I was raised by a strong, independent woman and my parents had an amicable divorce and stayed friends – but I have issues with being part of a pair. I can do it alone but I don’t know how to survive WITH someone else. I haven’t seen it done. It causes tension.

7. My dad still lives in my hometown with his second wife and their extended families. They are all very involved in each other’s lives and he gets to see my stepsister’s kids every day. My husband’s entire family lives there, too. Sometimes I want to move back home to be a part of a big intertwined crowd of people who know each other too well and take each other for granted. Then I realize that it is too late. We would always be the “out of towners” that came back and wouldn’t really fit in. Then before I get too sad, I realize that I know them all well enough from 1200 miles away, thank you.

8. I have little patience. Oh, I’m good with acquaintances but my family and strangers get the brunt of it. If it is any consolation – I am most impatient with myself.

(I realize that is no consolation and I am working on it.)

9. Despite 31 years of divorce, 3 step parents, 8 step siblings, 7 siblings-in-law, 7 nieces and nephews and 5 states separating us I still consider my mom, dad and two brothers my true immediate family second only to my husband and son. I would do just about anything for those people. Stay out of my way.

10. I couldn’t decide on a girl’s name when we were pregnant – despite everyone I am close to being named Elizabeth (and it being my middle name). She would still be “baby girl” if kiddo had been female.

11. I am still waiting to grow up and move into a 2-story frame house on a tree-lined suburban street with friendly neighbors and lots of kids. I will know all about wine and gourmet cooking and I will have the soft glow of the perfect fireplace and decorator lighting illuminating my reading of the collected Shakespeare.

12. I need to take a look around at what I already have and give up on the silly notion of #11 being the perfect life. Cause seriously, that only accounts for about 10 minutes of a life and I don’t particularly like the taste of wine. And Shakespeare is meant to be performed, not read.

13. I am really, really good at my job – being a children’s librarian. I love it and do it well. I make a positive difference in people’s lives and that fulfills me.

I am not as good at being a doctoral student in information studies, which is what I left my dream career to do full time.

I struggle with this hourly.

There were lots of shots from the beginning of FGR that I loved but this one really stuck in my mind. I managed to take it at ten to midnight after a night out - hence the crappy lighting and rather inebriated expression.

Happy Birthday FGR - I love you!

The Stare Down

UPDATE:So the BF is having a rough day today. He has a slight fever and in pain but is being cared for very well. They had him up walking and climbing stair on his own. I think that is amazing only 48 hours after having open heart surgery.

I hope the fever goes away and that he can sleep or at least rest for the rest of the day.

UPDATE: He has been coughing now for 3 hours trying to get up and out the natural Phlegm build up that occurs during surgery. To hear him literally wailing while coughing is an absolute horror.

UPDATE: The nurses and doctors worked to get the coughing to stop and he can now go to bed for the night. His fever has come and gone several times today.

Hopefully it will stay gone this time.

For FGR - I Crush Your Head!

I couldn't get a FUTAB in there, and I couldn't get it more along the lines of Mr. Tyzik, and I tried to subject some innocent people waiting at the bus stop to some head crushing, but they wouldn't sit still long enough. I did take some frustration out on their heads, but I couldn't capture the torture I was giving them.

B0lly got it instead. ;)

"Not everyone deserves to have their head crushed, just 99.99999% of them."

Happy Bench Monday :)

FGR - No rabbits here ;)

Luckily I am the one that was gone this weekend. Iraq can wait. But I think we will be feeling the same way when he gets back from Iraq. It's been pretty cool to hang out with Raleigh since his breaking news photo which started our flickr interaction. And then he stalked me on facebook, and I asked him if he wanted to go out shooting one Sunday and we really got along like we had known each other forever. And now we've started dating :)

But it's been cool because I am not obsessed to the point where I can think of nothing else, but yet I want to spend all my free-time with him. I know for me, I have to have a relationship with "God" or a power greater than myself before I can enter into any kind of successful relationship with another human being. And I want to do that, and if I keep my relationship with God right I can be what Raleigh needs and what I want to be :)

cutest song. Listen!

For FGR's Christmas Lights :D

Monday on Black:

the day didn't start well at all...i think it's friday no matter what the calendar says and there's been a quite a bit of arguing going on with my dad and i...

earlier today an older man called about the found ad on Dasher...he told me he was looking to get a free Chihuahua because he's legally blind and wants a playmate for one of his little dogs...now, okay i'm not a cold hearted person, but what the hell? how can anyone call a lot ad in order to try and get a free dog?? this is someone's pet, he's been lost and you want to claim him because you're cheap? and i'm sorry but saying you're legally blind doesn't get you any extra sympathy because one of my best friends was legally blind and he could still drive a car better than i can...

anyway, my dad was upset that i didn't tell him he could have the puppy...it's ridiculous...first off, it's horrible just to hand him over to just anyone especially to someone who would try and get a free dog like this...and secondly, i don't really believe the person who called...i mean, it just feels bad and i go by my feelings...

oh well, FGR gave me an excuse to play with sparkly lights, and it made my day a little better :D

Day 141

Today's group in Flickr Group Roulette, is Hindsight.

This is also the 2nd of 5 things that you will learn about me, for GTWL's theme for this week - 5 New Things.

I moved out here to the West Coast only a few years ago, after being born and raised in Central Canada. I grew up in a medium-sized city just outside of the biggest city in Canada. I met my husband-to-be (who was from out here) and eventually, after marrying and having our daughter, we decided to move out here. It is such a beautiful place.

It is the mildest city in Canada, we have gorgeous mountains and beautiful flowers almost all year long, there is skiing within 3 1/2 hours, beautiful ocean all around.

I love that the weather rarely gets below freezing and we usually get snow once a year, I love that my neighbours are 120 feet away from us, that we can see the ocean & the mountains from our house, that there is a beach 5 minutes away, and that we will often see deer wandering through our yard.

#11 in Explore

For FGR. & SOTM(Someone Once Told Me). One of my favorite things my father has told me over & over again.

Strobist info: SB800 CR bounced off of ceiling @ 1/4 power. SB800 CL & behind me, again bounced off of ceiling @ 1/4 power.

This image is featured on my blog.

Today TRP is invading FGR and FGR is invading TRP! Also for copycats.

I'm not the first to copy one of Boy_Wonder's photos - it's no wonder, he's very talented! Check out his photostream if you've somehow missed it - he's got an instantly recognisable style. Day after day he produces something incredible.

This is the photo that I copied. I was originally planning to copy a photo that was in both FGR and TRP, but I kept coming back to this one of Boy_Wonder's. I'd been wanting to do something like it as soon as I first saw it. I couldn't pass up the opportunity to do it now.

This one took me hours. Not only to take the pictures, but also to do the editing. I kept going back and taking new pictures, because I wasn't overly happy with any of them. Then when I was editing, photoshop would not stop freezing on me! Aaarrggghhh!!! But it's done - and I'm happy with it. As you can see, the background is very different - but I just couldn't get a similar texture - so I just went with something else. And I like it.

Oh - and happy birthday Amadika! Thanks for doing this - today was a fun day.

EDIT - Thanks for the explore everyone - #244!

Day one-hundred and forty-four of my 365 Days challenge.

Note me please! ♥

this is for FGR . the group today is "do you remember when?"

do you remember when you used to get to bring cupcakes for your birthday for your whole class? i used to get so excited to be able to do that when i was a kid. my mom always made my favorite, yellow cake with chocolate frosting.

these are for my coworkers going away party tomorrow. chocolate cupcakes with peanut butter icing and a wee reeses peanut butter cup for garnish.

this is day 170 of a year in pictures, 2008

For FGR - Vignette Sluts.

Heh, I love vignettes so much, and when the slut was added along, I thought I would give it a try... but, I suck at being a slut.

I have another entry for this, something a little less trashy looking. I wanted to submit this one also just because I'm practicing on letting go and just going for it.

I actually took this at work this morning, waiting to hear back on why I couldn't disarm the alarm system. Little did I know at the time, I may had already disarmed it, and found out about an hour and a half later. So, now, I'm back at work, procrastinating again. lol

I love having a remote too... :D

For Flickr Group Roulette and the Guilty Pleasures group.

This was more inspired by my Dad than FGR. We've just moved house and have been unpacking all our kitchen/dining room stuff. Heather (a great stuff eliminator) would pull an item out and say, "We haven't used this in two years, can I put it in the Goodwill pile?" Then came the punchbowl, an obvious staple of any Navy household. But we haven't used it in years, so Heather once again said, "Mom, you are no longer serving punch to your guests. They get wine or beer." As she moved to put it in the Goodwill pile though, Dad said, "It would make a great cereal bowl." And he thought he was kidding, ahaha. The clone happened to like the idea.

So the pleasure? Kid's cereal. Trix are for clones. The guilt? Spending $8 on a box of cereal and gallon of milk to make one dang photo. I tried to get my family to help me eat the cereal out of the punchbowl afterwards but Mom refused and took some from the cereal box instead. Heather wanted cereal but was too grossed out and ended up not eating any. Dad took a bowl and dipped it into the punchbowl to help me. Probably because he has a brilliant mind and knew that the punchbowl really did make a great cereal bowl. Go Dad. And then I dumped the leftovers down the disposal.

The FGR theme of the day was tributes to Weird Al songs. There are so many good old school ones (my favorite of all time is probably Yoda), but I couldn't think of any great photos to do for any of them. So I came across "Couch Potato" and got my idea.

Couch Potato - Weird Al

Look

If you had

One shot

To sit on your lazy butt

And watch all the TV you ever wanted

Until your brain turned to mush

Would you go for it?

Or just let it slip?

Yo

Remote is ready

Eyes wide, palms are sweaty

There's Flintstones on the TV already

Wilma 'n' Betty

No virgin to channel surfin'

And I'm HD-ready

So I flip

Garbage is all I'm getting

There's Simon Cowell

Who folks wanna disembowel

He opens his mouth

Always says something foul

They're dyin', wow

Wannabes are crying now

He votes them out

Time to throw in the towel

Shows based on reality

Oh, the humanity!

Oh, Ozzy's family

Sho' loves profanity

Whoa, the insanity

Oh, dogs that crap and pee

Home of depravity?

No, they live happily

Yo

Plus "Da Ali G Show"

And "Celebrity Mole"

Oh, and there's Anna Nicole

Well, she's scaring me

"Look ma, no cavities"

Oh, it's a station break

Better go out to the kitchen and microwave something

"You're gonna lose your mind watchin' TV" They told me, they'd scold me

But I'd still tune in every show (show)

My cable gets C-SPAN, TV-Land, and HBO

The Travel Channel, Discovery, and Lifetime (yo)

"You're gonna lose your mind watchin' TV"

They told me, cajoled me, "Turn off those music videos" (no)

I'm gonna watch C-SPAN, TV-Land, and HBO

The History Channel and QVC and Lifetime (yo)

(You're gonna)

My butt is aching

As I watch NASCAR racing

That show about undertaking

Larry King

To "24" to "Law And Order"

The Weather Channel's boring like "60 Minutes"'s ancient reporters

Next up on "E! True Hollywood Story"

The rise and decline of twelve actors named Corey

Shows for next fall, they've already been namin'

"CSI: Boise" and "Touched By An Uncle" both sound pretty lame 'n'

So does "Everybody Tolerates Raymond"

And "King of Queens" jumped the shark the first minute

I can't believe Richard Simmons ain't in it

I'll move right on to "8 Simple Rules For Dating My Teenaged Daughter"

Then I bet

I watch "The Bachelorette"

Followed by "Welcome Back, Kotter"

And "The Muppet Show" where they go 'Mahna Mahna'

"You're gonna lose your mind watching TV"

They told me, they'd scold me

But I'd still tune in every show (show)

My cable gets C-SPAN, TV-Land, and HBO

The Disney Channel and A&E and Lifetime (yo)

"You're gonna lose your mind watching TV"

They told me, cajoled me

But I still love Lisa Kudrow (drow)

I'm looking at C-SPAN, TV-Land, and HBO

The Playboy Channel and Court TV and Lifetime (yo)

(You're Gonna)

Never missed "Melrose Place" or "Lost In Space"

I've seen each "Amazing Race" and "Without A Trace"

But I only watched "Will And Grace" one time one day

Wish I hadn't 'cause TiVo now thinks I'm gay

Oh, and "Fear Factor" I watched maybe a half hour

After that, felt like I needed a long shower

Network execs with naked ambitions

"Next week on FOX, watch lions eat Christians"

Like to tie up those programming planners

Make 'em watch all of that junk 'til their heads explode just like "Scanners"

Leech-covered grub-eatin' fools on "Survivor"

Look there's James Lipton discussing the oeuvre of Mr. Rob Schneider

And there's "Gilligan" and "SpongeBob", plus there's "MacGyver"

And Jay Leno has got Madonna, hey there's Luke Perry on a

Special all Pig-Latin episode of "Drew Carey"

Wanna turn on "E.T." 'cause I'm a gossip freak

And I gotta know who J. Lo is marryin' this week

A 30 second spot

Then we come back to "Are You Hot?"

I was planning on recording "The Sopranos"

I forgot

I love shows with or without a plot

I'll stare 'til my legs are numb, my eyes bloodshot

Because I only have got

One brain to rot

I'm gonna spend my life watching television a lot

"You're gonna lose your mind watching TV"

They told me, they'd scold me

But I'd still tune in every show (show)

My cable gets C-SPAN, TV-Land, and HBO

The Sci-Fi Channel and AMC and Lifetime (yo)

"You're gonna lose your mind watching TV"

They told me, cajoled me, "Turn off that Oprah Winfrey show" (no)

I got it on C-SPAN, TV-Land, and HBO

The Learning Channel and MTV and Lifetime (yo)

(You're gonna)

You can watch anything you want to, man

For FGR - MIDDLE FINGERs and Work Bathroom Wednesdays.

Don't you hate it when you have people walk in on you while you're trying to use the toilet? Maybe it's my fault and I should check to make sure the door is locked before I start my personal business. ;)

I feel ill today. I've been fighting nausea for the past week, and today, I can't seem to get rid of it... maybe I'm coming down with the flu that everyone is passing around. So, I'm sorry I couldn't perform anything more artsy, but when you're feeling as if the only thing you want to do is sleep, everything takes the back burner. 4pm cannot come any faster it seems.

I can't believe that tomorrow is day 200... two-hundred days. I'm suprised I made it this far, and I'm kinda glad that I didn't give up yet.

Seems I've made it on reddit & Digg... LOL

A Special Exhibition:“GAME ON: Why are videogames so interesting?”

This special exhibition provides an overview of the evolution of computer games, which have been advancing along with information technology, such as computers and the Internet, changing entertainment across the globe. Since it was first held at the Barbican Centre, U.K., in 2002, this exhibition has toured the world and attracted over 2 million visitors across the globe.

For FGR 90's Pop Culture

Ok, im officially a nob. I have just realised that George Michael bought out Faith in 1988 and I thought it was 1990. But I dont have time to do another shot so im going to have to submit this anyway.

Bit alarming that some of my favourite items of clothing (leather biker jacket, ripped stonewash jeans, mirrored ray-ban aviators) are all straight out of the George Michael "Faith" video... Rest assured that I don't have the same taste in, erm, hobbies as Sir George though...

[Music theme "faith" by George Michael (see day 6/365 for more details)].

For 365 Days, FGR and TRP.

April 2nd - Caution Tape and Duct Tape and Your Favorite... [hi tharrin!]

"Get outta here. THIS area's restricted!"

This was the sweatiest, most outrageous thing I've done for Flickr and my 365 thus far. I could barely move with all this on and I don't have a remote, so I waddled back and forth from in front of the camera to behind it, checking my shots and adjusting my settings. It got to the point where my boobie fell out and the tape was starting to fall off so I had to stop and go with what I had.

One of my favorite things is to dress up and play with props. I would've loved being a drama major and making myself up into a different person with wardrobe and make-up, but the whole memorizing lines and having to speak in front of people thing isn't really my bag. But for Flickr - where I don't have to speak! - dressing up and looking dorky is so fun and I really have a blast with it!

TRF: Speaking of speaking in front of people, remember on day 70 when I told you all I found out I'm receiving an award from school? I found out that it is the Dean's award and I'm one of only 7 graduates receiving it at spring commencement. I'm being honored for the College of Education (department of Deaf Studies, my major), and I got an email today from the Office of Public Affairs about setting up a time to interview me and take pictures of me for the commencement program, and then a phone call from the office of my university's president about setting up an meeting with the president himself. He will be meeting individually with each of the 7 award winners and deciding which one of us will be receiving the President's Medallion for Spring 2009 graduation. And, to top it all off, as a Dean's award winner I have to give a speech at commencement! OMGGGGG!!!!!!!!!

...the best way to hide is to stick out in plain sight.

Come back to the streets.

For 365 Days, FGR, TRP, and TOTW.

April 8th - Flickr Punsters, Like Mike, If I Could Be Like Mike, and Cinematic Moments.

Although M i k e B and I just recently became contacts, he has a really great photostream and I dig his photos and videos. This photo is inspired by his What are the odds? shot from his 365. I squished some of the mustard, but this hot dog does in fact read "Bite Me".

Cinematic Moment: "Wait! But if you kill my dad, I'll never know where the treasure is buried!

What treasure?

Um, the treasure of Ima Wiener." - The Simpsons Movie

TRF: My birthday is one month from today!

Flickr Group Roulette: Pasta Pasta Pasta

I originally had visions or reenacting a solo version of Lady & The Tramp... complete with meatballs (great excuse to get cooking, right!?) But alas, I'm still sick... possibly more so. Luckily, mac&cheese is complete comfort food for me... now, this isn't quite the best kraft diner sp ever, but it'll do!

For FGR - My Favourite BODYPART

I don't think it will surprise anyone to hear that I don't really have a favorite body part. Which is not to say that I hate my body or anything drastic like that, just more that I like different things at different times. Picking a favorite has never been a thing for me. I suppose if pressed, I'd have to choose my hair, which is not so much a body part ... or is it? Anyway...

I picked this general vicinity of the neck, chest, and shoulders because it's where I like to be kissed and caressed the most. I immediately get chills and tingles and all that good stuff when I'm being visited in this area. It's my favorite.

So now you know.

So todays FGR was Hug it out! and for the 365 Men's club the challenge was perspective, I am one known to be multi-tasking. So here's the story behind the picture.... Today Emily and I went to the St Paul farmers market and bought a bunch of produce. I like spicey foods and Emily is slowly acquiring the taste. So I bought some thai firecracker peppers and had them sitting on the table. Emily wanted to make salsa today with the ingredients that we had purchased from the market, and wanted me to taste what she had made so far. She brought me a taste and asked what it was missing.... I said the heat. She didn't want the salsa to be too hot so she asked what would be the best to heat it up, and I told her the thai peppers would work perfect! She said that she didn't want to use them because they would be too hot! I made a bet with her, 30 dollars, that they were not too hot, and asked her to just bite out of one. Immediately after biting into it she started to tear up and almost go into a panic attack, she ran to the kitchen to drink milk and chew on bread. For the next few hours she was really mad at me, and I tried to do everything I could to cheer her up.... I guess nothing really worked so I gave her the $30 and gave her a hug.

Day 328 of 365

Another submission for Flickr Group Roulette. Today's group was Curl Up With A Good Book.

It just so happens that I am currently reading The Golden Compass by Philip Pullman. In general, I'm a bigger fan of books over their film versions so I typically read the book first. My sister mentioned that she was interested in seeing the movie and then mentioned that she had all three books so I snagged them now that she is done reading them. My interpretation of the book is a bit biased by the trailers I've seen for the movie and I'm picturing the characters as the actors and actresses that they've chosen for the film, but that isn't so bad. I'm liking the book and I'm now really looking forward to seeing the movie.

So far I really don't understand what the Catholic League has against the books, but last month they called for a boycott of the movie. Maybe later in the series I'll get why, but right now I don't get it, not that it matters anyway. I don't hold their opinions in high regard and I'll be seeing the movie regardless. It just seems a bit silly to me that a religion that has been around for so long feels so threatened by an implied opposing school of thought.

FGR asked today to commit fruit destruction. From the group:

"for everybody, who likes to kill, smash, destroy, burn or do something else bad to a fruit!"

You can see how the idea appealed to me. ;-)

For Flickr Group Roulette: 13 Things

13 things about me.

My second-to-last day on the 365 project seemed like a good time to be a little expository.

1. I am almost done writing my second novel. I'm still working on finding an agent. I write comedies, if anybody knows anybody.

2. I have no idea what we're going to name the baby.

3. I have a brother with whom I have almost nothing in common, but I love him anyway. He's an assistant coach for the strength and conditioning program for the Iowa Hawkeye football program.

4. When I was a little girl, I wanted to be a cowgirl-veteranarian. I have since lost interest in both sides of that hyphen.

5. I have extremely vivid dreams. I usually only tell my husband about them, because other people's dreams are rarely interesting, but I figure it's his duty to listen to them. I've dreamed about the ocean the last two nights, first that I was swimming in the dark and was afraid, and last night that a swordfish leaped onto shore and ran into a building. It's strange because I really like the ocean.

6. I am an extremely rapid (and high-intensity) typist. My office moved locations a while ago, and I now work in a cubicle. Other people from around the cube farm often come in and comment on how fast they can hear me typing.

7. I love to travel, especially internationally. I've been to many countries in Europe, North America, and the Caribbean. I'd really love to go to Asia, especially Japan, Thailand, and Turkey. Does Turkey count as Asia? Anyway. This is the first time in a really long time that I haven't known exactly what my next trip will be.

8. My house smells good right now because I'm caramelizing a big batch of onions for French onion soup. I've been cooking a lot lately and freezing things to make it easier to eat well after the baby comes.

9. In general, I like myself pretty well. I have my faults, but I think it's stupid to dwell on them. The world is harsh enough; don't be your own enemy.

10. My favorite book is Hemingway's The Sun Also Rises. I love that it is succinct, honest, brutal, funny, and devastatingly sad at the same time. My affection for northern Spain is partly because of that book.

11. I am very mentally organized but very physically disorganized. My desk at work is a mess, but I never miss deadlines.

12. I am 85% thrilled to be having a baby and 15% scared shitless. I'm afraid of SIDS, of birth defects, of giving my baby a stupid name that he/she will hate me for in the future (see #2). I am afraid of losing my identity and only being thought of as someone's mom.

13. I really admire a lot of people in the Flickr community, especially the many talented, kind, insightful women I've "met" through this project. More on that tomorrow.

For FGR "Monkey See.... Monkey Do" 1/4/09 over in the Imitations group.

what I was listening to~

~The Weeping Buddha~

"There once were two warriors who

confronted each other in numerous battles. Both of

them wore masks and never saw each other's face. After

many such encounters the older warrior killed the

younger one. Upon removing his mask he discovered he

had killed his own long lost son. The weeping buddha

is the warrior filled with sorrow. By touching the

back of the buddha one is supposed to pass all of his

sorrow on to the weeping buddha, thus making life a

little better."
