-Back to school-

Yes, today was the day.
I really wasn't into it at first but as the day progressed it was ok.
(finally showing off my RVA cozy that I purchased awhile back. ;))
school supplies..
***********************************************
And, here are the little terrors who drove me into a panic yesterday..
Attack of the geese!!!
Perhaps one of the best action shots I have taken.

~allergies, austin, & geese!~

so..i'm still drowning myself with hot tea & lemon with honey.
i hate
hate
hate
allergies.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Tomorrow is the first day back at school. I'm not really looking forward to it because I've been up in Austin (my favorite city♥) since yesterday. Lewis and I came up early on Monday so we could get him moved into his apartment. We had so much to do! Thank goodness we got everything done. I took some photos today but realized I left my camera cable at home so I can't upload tonight. :-( Dang it!

Ok--and let me just tell you that I was actually chased by a gaggle of geese earlier today! Yes, it is true.. We had just gotten out of the parking lot at Wal-mart when we noticed the group up ahead. I told Lewis to slow down so I can get out real quick and take a few shots with my camera. You know how I always have my camera on me, right? :) Well, I got out of the car and started approaching them. They stared at me at first while I took a blurry shot. As I got closer the ENTIRE gaggle started darting towards me. Fast! I was thinking, "oh crap". Then I just ran all the way back to the car. I barely made it in before they bit me in the butt! I saw their necks going back in forth like they wanted to attack. I swear that was the scariest thing that has happened to me in a long time. But nevertheless it was pretty hilarious. Lewis laughed a lot.

late friday~

I'm up late again. It's 2:31 a.m.
I never seem to get my blog posts out early anymore. Dang.
I'll get better about that!
Here's a few small art pieces I created earlier this week that I wanted to share. Not sure what I'm going to do with them just yet. They were made a couple of nights ago when I stayed up until 4 am and felt like creating something. ;)
I skipped out on thrifting today. Maybe tomorrow when we are out and about on errands.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We did see "Julie & Julia" tonight like I had hoped. =))
The movie was absolutely fantastic! I swear that Meryl Streep..she never ceases to amaze me. She is so versatile with her performances and that's why she is clearly one of my favorites.
cheers!*

oh how i wish for fall..

As far as Summer is concerned, I'm so over it. I've been over it.
I can't wait for the Fall...

I want to feel the cool breeze outside.
I want to wear long sleeves.
I want to sip hot tea and coffee or cocoa.
I want to take some Autumn-y photographs.
I want to lay in the leaves.

(this was in no way or shape a poem hehe)

~My absolute hands down favorite movie to watch during the Fall months is "You've Got Mail". I have seriously watched that movie ten thousand and one times and it never gets old. ;)
Ahhh.....
it's my comfort flick.

favorite quote:
"Don't you love New York in the fall? It makes me wanna buy school supplies. I would send you a bouquet of newly sharpened pencils if I knew your name and address. On the other hand, this not knowing has its charms." --Joe Foxcredit
