I Bought a Dress
1) I tried to come up with a clever title since Vacation seemed boring, but my attempt at un-boring is mediocre. 2) The title I did come up with should come at no shock to you; dresses are my life these days. I love them. Moving on: I got home last night from my first … Read more
Nowhere Else
There are very few moments these days that aren’t filled with dreams. I’m not necessarily talking about dreams, hopes and aspirations; I mean daydreams. Most moments of my days have an underlying tone to them. A sense that I should be somewhere else, doing something else, communicating with someone else, etc. Sometimes these daydreams are … Read more
Stairway to Heaven: Part 2
In Part One, I described how I fell while rock climbing. The back story is well-worth the read, but here’s the summary: I free fell for 5-7 feet, then pendulum swung for another 10-15. By the time I made it to the impact zone, my back was against the wall. Essentially I belly flopped, but … Read more
Stairway to Heaven
Two Fridays ago (I know, I’m late in the game. This is old news by now. My wounds are almost healed. My apologies.) I got a phone call from a good friend and old climbing buddy. We’ll call him Pedro. Pedro called to confirm/discuss the details for a last minute endeavor: climbing at The Gunks. … Read more
I’m Wearing Your Mom’s Mascara
After Facebook statuses like this: Y’all are probably in stitches wanting to know the details. And also wondering why my phone-facebook-statusing-skills are sub-par in the spell-check category (hint: the answer lies within the status). However, today is not the day for a detailed rundown of what happened yesterday, fifty feet in the air. Today, I … Read more
What I did this weekend
I took this photo: Hung out with this girl: In an long-overdue endeavor, I drove to Philly for the day to see the BFF. Since the weather has been moderate ’round these parts, we beboped through the city all day: used bookstore in Old City, Liberty Bell, that one really random clothing store Center City … Read more
Camera Phones and Random Stops
On my way home from vacation, on a whim, I called a friend who lived along our route. Said friend is days away from moving to Texas, so I thought it would be fun to see him. Meg and I waited for a bit in a parking lot, had a 20 minute conversation, then headed … Read more

Things have been a bit quiet here. And for good reason; I went on vacation. A vacation from my “vacation”, if you will. I took a road trip up to Central New York for a bit of reunion. I spent four-ish days with dear friends. This is from just after a lovely overland hike, complete … Read more
I’m an Aunt. ish.
Do you remember this post? And this girl? The story: This is a first for me. Peers have had babies before, but they were just peers. Amy is a best bud. So, to be honest, I had no idea what to expect when it came to adding another to this family that I love so … Read more
Those Eyes
As a budding photographer, I glean as much information from other photogs as my little brain will allow. One of my favorite lifestyle photographers is Jasmine Star. Her eye for composition and methods for drawing personalities out of skin and bone are constantly blowing me away and challenging me. I particularly love her blog because … Read more
