Blush My Soul

my corkscrew has done the most work it has done in years. opening a sweet bottle of Llanno Estacado Blush, i cant believe its finally happened. it took me a second to notice, the shrine pyramid of Budwieser in the sale isle of the grocery store. i literally stood there for minutes staring upon this foriegn red box, like my brain really needed that extra time to process what exactly was in front of me. and when i did realize what this distant object was, my mind awoke.
its happened, its finally happened. this great place of west texas has finally taken one step into the current melinium. i even saw my first wine and beer corner store on my drive home, its amazing how long people have been waiting for this.
so now i sit here, part in celebration, part in releasing some of my weeks stress, and sip on my favorite local pink wine.
its hard to recall how i got here, in this city if you will call it that, in the first place. i know i know, it had something to do with a boy, but what did i think i wanted here for myself? i dont think i was really thinking about it at all.
i try so hard to exhaust all my possibilities of life here. ive got a job i really enjoy for money, i love the major im in, i try as much as possible to utilize everything i have here at this school. besides that its still really hard to get through just a day. not only am i exhausted, but my mind drags the whole day.       
                  "why are you here, what are you doing...you could be so much happier somewhere else"
but, i must drag on. i remind myself 220 days...you can be out of here in 220 days...and not only out of here, but out of here with a degree..............its the only thing that keeps me around here these days. because with out that one paper i would be out of here, id be driving across the nation, trekking every inch of soil. or better yet in some country somewhere else, where i do not know anyone or anything. a life of a nomad, that's where id be. but its that one paper, that little, small, very very very expensive, little paper that keeps me chained to this city.....................at least for another 220 days.

Little Bit in Love with You

So quick update....if you haven't noticed, i think that "art on a string" is a clear winner for a web domain. Still some adjustments being made though and site pages are still coming together. Prob have more time to do some work during spring break tho. Thanks! to everyone for voting!

secondly, i want to congratulate Irby on getting accepted to one of his grad schools!(UNT) all his hard work will pay off, and I am sure he will make some great work, where ever he goes.

i promised a picture of the finished products of my photography lamps....i love the way they turned out and the produce the perfect amount of light over my bed!

Im so excited for the upcoming weeks, i got a lot planned next week is the last week of school and i finally get to go home again. I was thinking about it and I barely ever get to go home to see my family, not near enough. Just the few given holidays, if even that. Spring Break, Summer, Christmas....Thanksgiving (not this past year). So i am really excited!
The following week i have a HUGE photgraphy conference in Dallas (SPE).... should be fun, another excuse to get out of LBK.

If you havent been able to get a hold of me, my phones been broken...got dropped and stepped on my some big bouncer.....but everything is up and running now...Apple sent me a brand spanking new phone!!! doesnt get much better than that

:::::I LOVE APPLE!::::: :-D
