how i express myself with buttons and fabric.

Goals for the day: Make myself a birdcage veil and finish my bridesmaid's bouquets. I can proudly say, I can check both of those off my list.

The Button Bouquets

Rollin on dem 24s.

Okay. Let me throw this out there. I have the sweetest job EVER. not trying to brag or anything, but lets get serious now. I am paid to play with kids ALL day. That's not all. We go canoeing, rock climbing, archery, singing, arts & crafts!, gold diggin, rollin around in mud, running around in the woods, swinging ropes, shooting bee bee guns, CREEKING. But wait there is more...

I get to drive a short bus.

AH! Today was my first day of training, and now I know why buses drivers continue to drive buses. BECAUSE IT's AWESOME. I love it. I want to drive that thing EVERYWHERE. Now, don't tell me you aren't jealous.

Flying High.

There's something about it, flying a kite. You feel like a child, carefree and playful. There is some mystery behind the kite. Something intangible, similar to the wind supporting the beautiful kite, which in my case is a very large octopus. It just happened that last night was the perfect conditions for flying Olly the Octopus. The day was warm while the wind was strong. Olly went up easy, soaring with the birds. Curt's, on the other hand, struggled a bit. He had a honorary Batman kite. But he eventually got up there.

That was the beginning of an amazing night. 

What could top that besides an intense game of BOGGLE? Probably nothing. If anyone was interested, Boggle is one of my favoritest games ever invented. I love it. But what made it even better was the wonderful people I was with. James, Lindsay, and Curty. All very good at forming words in Boggle. Probably our best game involved the word POOP. priceless.

After several competitive games, it started raining. No, scratch that. It was pouring. It was thundering. It was perfect. I couldn't resist. Curt and I frolicked and splashed and ran and twirled and rolled down the hills. It was a perfect moment with a perfect man. Unforgettable.

Watch out.

Dang son. That's all I can say. Lady Ga Ga has some major competition. Holy cow.

Start your morning off right.

I arise at 10:00. Beautiful. But what really starts my morning off right is a beautifully sculpted omelet. I'm not a person to brag, but when it comes to omelets, I am the master. You wisk the eggs until bubbles form, add chives, and water. Once the eggs form a solid blanket,  vegtables and cheese is layered on top. Then, when settled, with much delicacy, bring the sides together. Vala!

My mouth is in heaven right now.

Radio Silence.

Dear World,

I write to you now, with an apologetic tone. I realize that to the world, I may be considered dead, but on the contrary, I have never been more alive. This has led to almost no time left for solitude, and thusly, blogging.  I succumb to the needs of distant friends and family wondering what exactly my days have been filled with. In short, my days have been filled completely by the most wonderful man known to Earth. If you were as lucky as I am, I would like to believe you would behave in a similar fashion to myself. Let give a synopsis.

1. Tuesday: Return home, after a long flight from the wonderful land of Utah (which I do miss terribly). We celebrate by hitting up the famous "Rice Cafe". If you, by chance, ever come to the land of Lafayette, IN, please promise me you will indulge yourself here.
2. Wednesday: Tackled, to a degree, the immense task of unpacking my many bags and boxes. I still have not finished completely. It's a daunting process.  I then randomly decided to go to Outback for dinner, which just happens to be Curt's place of employment. Weird. And it was even weirder that he was there. But I must say the food was delicious. 
3. Thursday: Cut Curt's hair. so fun.
4. Friday: DANCE PARTY. man that was great. it was 80s themed. 
5. Skip to Tuesday: It has been beautiful here. I love it. Curt and I decided to break out the ROLLER BLADES. While we were gliding, hand in hang, through the campus of Purdue, we happened to pass the large fountain, which happened to be on, full blast. We stripped our gear off and frolicked. It was slightly cold, but the weather was amazing! We couldnt help ourselves.

   6. Thursday: After work, Curt came over and we had a BBQ with my family. It was so much fun. My family loves him, almost as much as I do.



That is a quick update on the past week of silence. Hopeful I learn to adapt and communicate with the world soon. :)
