A little taste



Sorry this isn't the greatest thing you will ever see.
1. I'm no experienced video editor.
2. The compression quality sucks balls.
3. And for some reason, there's like an extra 4 minutes of nothingness at the end. Go figure.
But it should give you a good idea of our road trip :)

I hate the bus: Part 1

Too many people talk to me on the bus. It's official: I'm wearing a faux wedding ring to ward off the gentlemen and burying my nose in a book to further dissuade people from talking to me, period.
Trust me, I'm not trying to brag. The only guys who talk to me are super creepy 50-somethings who complain about their ex-wives. No bus hotties as of yet.

I love the bus: Part 3

I was pretty sleepy when I got on the bus this morning. And I was reading through Jeffrey Sachs' "The End of Poverty," a brilliant but rather textbook-like theory on economics. Needless to say, I was having trouble keeping my eyes open. Well, all of a sudden, 10 screaming 4 year-olds all in matching tye-dye shirts clamored onto the bus with three emotionally-drained teachers following behind them (it was not even 10am).

There were cries of "Sit with me, sit with me!" from small bodies seemingly overwhelmed by backpacks larger than their tiny beings.

It was a good start to the day :)

And, we're off.


Ally and I will be leaving bright and early Friday morning to drive out to Sedona, Arizona for our old boss/current friend Joanne's wedding. I'm doing the photography! I'll post some of the pictures next week, as well as the invitations I designed for them!
Grand canyon, grand adventures...here we come.

Something is wrong with the world when...

a mustache on a stick costs $40.

(However, Paisley, I can see you rocking this with a monacle)

What I do at work

I've made a big decision, everybody.


After getting inspired by my coworker Sloane (who collects all things owl-related) and this website, I decided I wanted/needed to start collecting something.

After much thought and deliberation (some of the rejected ideas were: dachsunds, mermaids and vintage scarves) I settled upon STARFISH.

I'm starting with these cards from Earmark's Etsy shop:
