some randoms.

So I feel like I need a good, hearty blog post. Yeah, I finally posted pictures last night from awhile ago... But let's catch up on the "now".

Project Runway last night. Was anyone else excited to see Terri go? Because I was. Sick of her 'tude, and she was a bit too full of herself for my taste. I was a bit sad to see the tan boy go, as he had started to grow on me like a bronzed tumor. I'll get over it. Now I'd just like to see Joe (who more often than not disgusts me with his designs) and Kenley. Now, don't get me wrong, I have a special place in my heart for Betty wannabes, but her emotional outbursts were getting a bit too much for my taste. Shut your mouth and listen, lady.

What else? Well this weekend is another venture up north, as my brother will be married on Saturday! Yay. I am going to be doing photography for the wedding, so I'm hopeful to get an actual photo portfolio website started... That way I can perhaps start a little side action photo stuff. We'll see.

Last weekend? Was perhaps in the category of excellence. Saturday was the good ole Saline fair, mini golf, sushi, a walk and a movie at home! It was a marathon date... Then Sunday we went kayaking for the first time... So fun! I am hooked and have even picked out a kayak to purchase when I actually have a home and income to waste. Night capped with a delicious chili dinner with everyone.

Books? Well, so glad you asked. I just finished a book called "The Road" by Cormac McCarthy. It took my about a day after completion to realize how good of a book it was. As I had finished it, I felt a little sad and just kind of... empty? But after I thought about it for awhile, and reevaluated the purpose of the book, I was pretty impressed. That said, this book is definitely not for everyone. It's about the journey a father and son take looking for an unknown salvation a few years after something catastrophic has happened to earth. The world is covered in ashes and there is no sunlight... There's "bad people" that will do anything to survive. Written in a different manner then I'm used to, it definitely left me enthralled with the connection between the father and son, and their will to survive...

Anyways, last thought. Have you seeeeeen Obama's website? As a designer, I think it is very impressive to see a Presidential candidate that puts some effort into good design. Especially on a website. Compared to McCain's, Obama's is just plain nicer to look at. Hats off to the Obama campaign for that one...
