Springing in.

Today is Bike/Walk to Work Day. Lots of stuff going on in Minneapolis. Normally, I volunteer for these types of events, but this year I had to turn it down in order to get the last bit of work done in the office before my San Francisco trip. I did, however, ride to work... as I try to as often as possible. Restaurants and Bicycle Shops were doling out free coffee and breakfast, so I grabbed my favorite mug (from Birchwood/Peace Coffee) to take along.

(basking in the sun before more work.)

I decided that since it was such a nice day, and because after I officially finish my last hour of work from home I'd have nothing to do but laundry - that I definitely had time to snap a couple pictures of some of my latest finds.

Experiment in Color

Yesterday I was headed to a showing of my friend Jessi's dance troupe : Wicked Sister. Knowing I'd be sitting in a theater style chair for 2 hours, I had to think comfortable. I'm not extremely artistic in anyway, but I figured being around arty types, I could use some sort of bright obnoxious color that I wouldn't normally wear anywhere else and see if it worked.


I, of course, anchored it with something boring so I would feel more comfortable.




I might have been wise to cut my head off in this picture. That deer in the headlights thing isn't working for me. However, as an explanation, my camera was literally FALLING from it's perch as this picture was taken. I love my camera, and I would take a bullet for it.





This is a locket I found at a garage sale a million years ago. I'm guessing it was a watch at some point, but that piece is gone. Now, I can put things in there if I want. Like lifesavers.

I always need lifesavers.
