Day 19: Something Orange

Bet you thought it was gonna be a pumpkin :)

Sorry for the terrible photo quality. I'm still not feeling great. yesterday was fantastic, and today , well sucks!
this little guy is actually a beanbag dart board, Chris won it at wunderland the night of his bachelor party!
(we had clean parties :)) anyway, he lived above Chris' dresser for a while but I found he's much happier behind our bedroom door... or was that me who is happier.... oh well! ;)

Today

Chris took me to the fish hatchery / Bonneville dam!
we've been there before, but it was kind of a get-out-of-the-house
excursion because I've been sick since Tuesday night, so i've been cooped up all week
trying to unplug my nose, and at the same time, keep it from running clean off my face.
I'm still sick, but lots better than Wednesday, that's for sure.

whenever I take pictures of me and chris he always has to make silly faces. I tried to get him to just smile. he tried to pretend he was when I took this one, by sticking his cheek out, he thought he could fool me. he was wrong ;)

Day 18: Shoes

Okay, so these aren't my shoes, this is a gross spider. we seem to be having an epidemic of them lately; the other day I was fixing my hair and one crawled down from the ceiling and landed on my neck, I didn't see it until I turned my head and there was this nasty creature making its way down my neck! needless to say, its life was cut short that day by some lovely candles... I don't kill them when they are outside, this one in the picture, got to live on a technicality, he was outside on my door jam. as soon as they cross the threshold, they are mine for the killing.

These are my purple shoes. I think, actually, I may have one more pair of purple shoes in addition. apparently purple is my favorite color. I always thought it was turquoise but I seem to be drawn to all things purple these days.

Day 17: Technology

This is my laptop, cell phone, and mp3 headphones. I have to chuckle at all the wires i battle every day or so just to get my "luxuries" to work. haha.

Day 16: long Exposure.

I don't know if this really counts, all night time photos take a long time to take so i assumed that it would work. I know, I was being bad and using my phone to take pictures while driving, but if you look... my light was red. nobody was in danger :)

Sorry! I was very very sick

Plus yesterday, I didn't have internet. pretty much all I saw was the inside of my eyelids.
...
to make up for it, here is a tour of my apartment!
its teensy, but it'll be a good memory to tell grandkids someday..

This is our living room, pretty much everything in this room was free, the couch and chair were gifts from

my parents for our wedding [well..handmedowns] the table and red clock we got from IKEA with giftcards,

the hooks for our coats, the lamp and the tv and tv stand were things we had from christmas' past, as well as wedding gifts. and there's a quick panorama of that.

This is our deck, we actually use this door waaaay more than our front door. we have neighbors who congregate in front of our door [her front door faces ours] and they take up that whole side walk.

This is a look from the door we enter by.

This is my festive fall decorations.. elaborate, I know :)

here's a better shot of our living room

The clock is from IKEA, the turtle was a gift from my mom, the square i stole..um..borrowed.. from my sister. and the photos are from a graduation party
