Depending on what color I wear, my eyes appear to change color.
They're just plain bluish grey though. My whole life I wanted green, hazel, or brown. Everyone in my family has blue eyes, and I wanted so desperately to be different.
I'm learning to love what I have.
Sometimes we need to stop and take a closer look at the simple things in life.
And then you need to drink it. :)

Sometimes you just need a hug. And that's what we call "normal". Like really - it's completely normal and what friends do for each other.
Having a child just makes you wanna cry. Look at her! What a wonder. This is probably the worst picture of me there is in the world, but I love how she looks here and how much she loves me and I like that all much better than I hate my picture. We are in Las Vegas here on our way back home from Idaho. We met up with a friend of ours who now works at the Mirage for Cirque du Soleil, Love (the Beatles one). He gave us a backstage, onstage, and under stage tour of the show. It was special and wonderful. Isabella loves to take these picture where we are together and we take our own picture. I hate how they make me look!
Sometimes known as "Christmas iguanas" because they are red and green (at certain times of the year)
First of all, Texas Aggie Ring asks you not to judge us!
The other night, I was up late and hungry. The only thing I had to eat at home were healthy options and as such, they didn’t seem that appealing. So, I called up Domino’s for delivery… Again, DON’T judge me or Aggie Ring!
I’ve measured the time it takes to drive from my place to the store. It’s just over two minutes and that’s if you hit the one red light between us. An hour after I placed my order, my pizza arrived. I tipped the driver well and took the pizza into the kitchen. Let’s just say that Aggie Ring was not happy with the order. The pizza was cold! Aggie Ring laughed at me and reminded me, “We didn’t even eat cold pizza when we were in college and poor!”
The next morning, before I took the whole pizza back to the Domino’s on the long TWO minute drive, Aggie Ring gave the pizza an inspection and thoroughly admonished me while saying, “What were you thinking Aggie? How could you ever call this food, or put it in your body? You’ve got two degrees from Texas A&M and your Aggie Ring still needs to do all of your thinking for you!” I have to admit, Aggie Ring was right. A Domino’s pizza looks like someone got sick on a sheet of cardboard.
When Aggie Ring and I took the inedible pizza back the following day, the manager said he was “sorry” but didn’t offer me a refund or even to remake my order. Aggie Ring told me, “This is why people with minimum wage skills don’t deserve a “living wage!”
Sometimes, we all should just listen to our Aggie Rings…
Aggie Ring says, "Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it!"
Sometimes I dream about the faces I capture on the street.
I wonder what their lives are like.
I wonder what their dreams are.
In my dreams they move... but they never speak... they just are... and their being begs the question of who they are...
This only happens when I don't stop to hear their stories... to get their name and grab something of the vibe that they give off.
The dreams are why I started pursuing their stories.
Knowing just a little bit seemed to keep the dreams at bay.
They're not bad dreams by any means...
The dreams just elude to the mystery of the person behind the image I've captured.
I don't know what it all means...
If it has any meaning at all.
It speaks to me of the power of these images on my psyche.

Sometimes you find home in the places you've never been and you look around and you could begin to question it all. If you should find yourself lost like me then, maybe you'll be like me then.
Sometimes being a friend means mastering the art of timing. There is a time for silence. A time to let go and allow people to hurl themselves into thier own destiny. And a time to prepare to pick up the pieces when it is over.
Gloria Naylor
If I could give everyone I know a gift it would be to give them a friend that had this kind of timing. Knew when to back off, when to go in with fists swinging, knew when to just wait it out. I hope I know how to be this friend.
Sometimes you can just go a bit to far with dressing up...
It is Halloween, Johny, Elsa and little Carl are "trick or treating". Dressed as a bunny, feary and somehow Carl managed to squish himself in a Gollum suit. You might think that Calr is the one who went to far, but now, just take a look inside...
When I went to the clinic, I felt putrid and sick. I loathed every inch of my being. I kept repeating to myself, "Christ forgives, He loves me, He knows me. He will see into my heart and know I am sorry". It's hypocritical, and so like a sinner.
A man shoved a sign in my face, as he stood outside the clinic walls, and told me I was a murderer.
And I agree with him.
But that doesn't mean this is black and white. I never thought I would be at that place, in that seat, with my boyfriend at my side and a doctor reading off a list of side affects from taking a deadly pill.
My throat was dry and constricted with tears as the doctor instructed me on what to do. I could see it in his eyes that he knew I loved this baby, and I his empathy was etched into his face.
I am consumed entirely with grief.
And as the days went on, I told my poor baby how much I loved him. Sickening, and devastating; but real. I dreamed of holding him in my arms, of cradling him at night, of bright blue eyes and curly chestnut hair.
First steps, first words, first birthdays and Christmas's. I wanted it all.
But I couldn't give him the life it would deserve. And I was to selfish to give him away and have my heart live outside my chest, without me to protect him.
Pro-lifers ask how pro-choicers can live with themselves after it's all said and done?
Well, first...we have to figure out how to live again.
Then rest will take awhile.

In mid-September, construction activities will move onto Lake Travis just below The Oasis. Three large temporary work platforms will each be secured in place by four piles (large support pipes) that are driven into the lake bed to hold the structures in place. As each pile is driven into the ground, it will create noise that sounds like a bell clanging for approximately 30 minutes. This work will take place on three to five days, sometime between mid-September and mid-October. All three structures will be built at 690 feet msl, or approximately 10 feet above full lake level.Another round of pile driving will occur in November to secure the permanent intake structure. The structure
should be in place by the end of December, when crews will begin to dismantle the equipment and move it
off the lake back to Keller Marina.
Throughout the course of the project, three large barges will be used to transport construction equipment,
cranes and the intake system from Keller Marina to the lake site. Security lighting on the barges and
construction platform will be provided. This portion of project construction should be complete by mid-
February, 2012.
