Leave sooner, drive slower, live longer

Saturday, March 6th, 2010

I gave Kory his first driving lesson today. Chip tagged along, even though there really aren’t supposed to be other people in the car, because we needed a pylon.

Just kidding. But, wow, that is one orange shirt.
Anyway, the day was perfect for the maiden voyage of the as-yet-unnamed Subaru. The sun was [...]

Snowpacolypse!

Tuesday, February 9th, 2010

Kory and I both get a snow day! Well, I did have to go work for a couple of hours, but now I’m home and cozy. Visibility is rather low ’round here.

Stay safe and warm, everyone!

Tattoos and Typos

Saturday, January 16th, 2010

It turns out my birthday celebration has extended well past the anniversary of my actual birth. Last night I collected on my everlasting gift from Chip: a new tattoo. Chip thoughtfully showed up right when it was really starting to smart and took some pictures.

Fair warning – don’t click around on those photos [...]

What’s a Little Weed Among Friends?

Tuesday, September 8th, 2009

Quite some time ago, maybe three or four years, Joe Lynch gave Kory a cute little book full of dog tricks.

Isn’t that a cute book?
Kory forgot about it for a while, but he recently picked it up while looking for some new things to teach Riley. Hello, Riley.

Kory was a little taken aback, and [...]

Digital Insanity

Thursday, August 20th, 2009

Do you remember when you had to wait for hours, even days, before you could see the results of your photographic efforts?  As someone who used to work with film, and with photographers, I can tell you that, on average, a very good photographer can get two to seven good shots for every twenty-four frame [...]

Primates and Progeny

Saturday, August 15th, 2009

So, Kory turned fifteen, and I didn’t post anything about it because I’m still coping. I have no idea why fifteen is such a big deal to me, but I am just amazed at how quickly he is growing up and I’ve been downright despondent about this birthday.
To celebrate, we met the Koch family [...]

Ode to the ‘Fro

Sunday, July 26th, 2009

I don’t think I spend enough time blogging about Kory’s hair.  Its color, its texture, its SHEER VOLUME.  And I did promise to post fabulous photos this summer.
This is how the ‘fro looks on an average day.  Kind of frizzy, a little out of control, and rarely symmetrical.  You would think that’d drive an OCD-affected [...]

Finals

Monday, June 8th, 2009

It’s Finals Week for me and for Kory. I have one, he has several. I’ve also started a new job and am still looking for freelance work, so we have a stress-filled household.
I’m committed to taking some fabulous photos this summer, though, so stay tuned!

Beast

Monday, May 25th, 2009

I promised to post this photo forever ago, and here it finally is! I hope to never see this look on my son’s face other than on a roller coaster.

Changes

Saturday, May 16th, 2009

I’ve been lax about posting photos lately because the upload process, frankly, sucks.  Unless I work from Chip’s house, the pics only halfway load and the process takes forfreakingever.  Therefore, these photos are a little old, but still worth posting.
Chip and Kory ran the Sugar Maple 5k … Chip went on to run the mini, [...]
