an organic apple a day...

speaking of food, check out chris' blog. the growing season hasn't started yet this year so it's not up to date, but he's got awesome links & resources & videos that are certainly more thought provoking than the bachelor ;) he's also going to be taking the permaculture design certificate through verge & i'm excited to transform our backyard into a food forest! also worth checking is jon steinman's deconstructing dinner. although this show has taken a break off the air, it's still actively spreading the word & importance of sustainability in food production & responsible, healthy eating. because as we all know... we are what we eat.

ways to use (waste) your time

i'm trying not to become so particular about my photos. i find myself over analyzing every silly detail & could spend hours on just one photo (day 23 was ridiculous for me). i don't have that holga movement mentality yet of just shooting without thinking, but i long for the sense of freedom & absence of frustration in that process. maybe i'll find a good medium between the extremes...

anyway, a random & useless update. i don't own a tv, but my sister told me that the "reality" show, the bachelor, can also be found online. i'm amazed at how much dyed hair & plastic nails can fly over some lame narcissistic dude. all i have to say is: omg so awesome!!

day 25
the willow tree in the run-d.l.e.
day 24
bouncing bubble heart found near olympic plaza
day 23
fly away crazy paper cranes! fly away

photo entry for the day. but my mind is elsewhere. i am thinking of flailing arms & legs, a helpless mother's song, & tangled iv tubing...

i work in a unique environment where i am often witness to the lives of those when they can be at their most vulnerable. sometimes there are stories that break my heart in a way that will still hurt years after i'd learned of it. today i encountered of a kind of strength that can only be found through the harshest tragic reality. i am thinking of some very special people & hoping for the best.

last glow at dusk

feeling a big change coming... maybe it's just the day, maybe it's just the season, but there's a little part of me that's hoping it's something more... & a bigger part of me that's hoping it's something good! :)

take me with you
