good things come to those who wait

The curtain, the swiveling stool, the mad dash to cram and maneuver bodies, the sudden bursts of light and anticipation of the photo strip sliding into your hands: it’s all photo booth magic! And it’s timeless. In an age of rapid-fire digital images, and a cell phone camera in everyone’s pocket, the allure of waiting—huh? waiting?—several minutes for that whoosh—aaaahhh!—of four little photos is inexplicably irresistible.

detour!

I’m off on a road trip today, with a friend who’s in search of a houseboat he can reno, and then launch his dreams upon. We’re going to check one out, and then spend the afternoon taking as many detours as possible! So, I’ll leave you with a little something sure to bring a smile.

Today promises to be better than yesterday’s terrible, horrible, no good, very bad, day—the kind of day that deserved a little something to turn it around and stop it (and me) from wobbling into a ditch. So, here’s to the plump, fresh blueberries that dot this morning’s pancakes, the always sweet, uplifting sound of my big girl’s voice over the telephone, and a mix of snaps—with no rhyme or reason—that will simply tease out a smile, and disarm even the most stubborn day.

crazy little thing called love

Today, while recovering in bed, I gathered books around me, remembered my greatest love affairs, and ate the hot, sour, salty, sweet food that friends brought over—it was every bit as epic.
