These are random thoughts/daily observances that I come up with....

I would like to apologize for those contacts whom are unable to see my images updating on their contact page!! I have been in contact with Flickr and the problem is apparently being looked into.
Random Fact: I took classical violin lessons for 13 years but haven't played my violin in just as many years. I miss it and plan on picking it up again one of these days...
Not happy with this image...the noise level is wayy too high for my liking, but I am too lazy to retake my shot.
Someone told me yesterday that a lot of my photos were negative emotionally. It I had heard that a few months ago I would have been devastated, at this moment it hasn't effected me. I like my photography..he can suck eggs. meh!
I've just had a really, really long day. The end.
I hate Mondays.....
Random Fact: I don't believe in organized religion but consider myself to be a spiritual person.
I got these on a trip to Hong Kong in 2001.
It came as a surprise when I discovered last night that a friend of mine had passed away unexpectedly. He was an creative talent in the art of Slam Poetry and will be sadly missed by many. To quote the man himself: "Treat everyday like it was your first." R.I.P. Steve.
I apologize for this depressing post.
I have been tagged to share 9 things by the beautiful Revamp Tramp. So here I go:
1. I have a bashful bladder which means I am unable to go pee in the woods. Makes camping and long trips very uncomfortable. (TMI?)
2. I was "Tom Boy" growing up and would rather play with G.I.Joes then Barbie Dolls. I have now gotten in touch with my girlie side.
3. I mostly wear black.
4. I love dressing up but am just as comfortable in jeans and a T-shirt.
5. I have stopped searching for true love, if it is going to happen, it is going to happen.
6. I don't wear perfume but instead wear essential oil in my hair (just a little bit). My favourites are Sandalwood and Patchouli.
7. I have been a fingernail biter for as long as I can remember and only just stopped about 3 years ago. I sometimes relapse but only for a short time.
8. I don't get people who don't understand sarcastic wit although I have been told sarcasm is a form of anger. *eye roll* "whatever!"
9. I am a girl that needs carbs for fuel and 8 hours of sleep a night (although I rarely get that).
Today was a crap day at work but when I got home I discovered that I had come fifth in the weekly I Heart Faces photo contest!! I also won Photo of the Week over at a fantastic blog Photographywired!!! Yay!!
I was betrayed today at work. Someone that I foolishly trusted (even thought I new better) went behind my back. Fortunately I am not the only one that is aware of what happened.
I am wearing new wristies that my Mom knit for me! yay!
Random Fact: I foolishly believe that everyone is inherently a good person.
So -25 with a wind chill that makes it feel like -35? I am glad that I didn't ask to live here! sheesh!! It is not supposed to get warmer until next week sometime. Glorious winter!
Random Fact: I used to own a Vespa Scooter but sold it because I am afraid to drive in "big city" traffic, so I sold it. I miss it terribly.
Every woman SHOULD have a pair of red shoes!! I got my first pair yesterday!
The lighting on this was not what I had envisioned...but I got tired of fooling around with it. gah!
It is snowing like crazy outside and I am all comfy inside in my daytime pyjamas...I love days like this! Four more days of my holiday left...:(
Random Fact: I have a low tolerance for alcohol...3 beers and I am on my way to my happy place, 5 beers? On my way to the toilet.
My best friend bought me a pair of smashing red shoes!!! yay!!
Random thought: I am scared of riding on escalators. Mostly just the getting on them and getting off of them.
This idea grew out of a conversation with my best friend...we were discussing some ideas for a SP and we though putting myself in a snow globe would be something fun to do. Well since I don't have a snow globe this is what I was able to capture. I am not really wanting to come out of this spere at the moment. I feel sheltered in here.
My photoshop skills are quite elementary but I am sure I shall revisit this sphere thing again...in fact I am thinking of doing a series...*mind wanders*
RANDOM FACT: I worry that my cat is unhappy all the time and am thinking about getting her a friend.
This past year has been one of many challenges - but not one I want to take back. If I had the choice I would go through everything again....that is just the way I am. I am hoping for many things in 2009...but I am choosing to just allow the chips to fall where they may and roll with the punches.
Happy New Year everyone!
I have no idea why I felt the addition of pop-art flowers was necessary....??
