A Day In The Life Of Me

This is the actual time I got up this morning. It's nice having days off. 4 out of the 7 days of the week I have off.

I get out of our IKEA framed bed. With Scott gone I take advantage of the whole bed.

Everyone morning I eat my cereal and check out what's new on Facebook.

By the looks of me in the mirror I see I am in need of a shower.

I go fast because I am afraid of the bathtub falling through the floor.

I stand pondering in my makeshift closet looking for something to wear. I always complain I have no dresses when my closet is obviously stuffed with them.

Being the good girlfriend that I am I quickly clean up the room before Scott gets home.

After all the hard work I relax with a game of Beautiful Katamari

Scott finally returns after his long weekend in Milwaukee. Kitty is happy too.

We go downstairs to make lunch. It turns out someone has eaten all our pizzas.

Instead we have cereal and toaster strudels.

Scott leaves me to go to school

Its cold out so he wears his hat

He leaves me laundry to put away

I help Cevonne look for an apartment

I become quite bored

I decide to do some knitting until Scott gets back

The kitchen is a disaster area we got out for dinner. Scott seems excited.

Mmmm Chipotle

I end the night by making the little brother a mix cd

Don't let the bed you saw earlier fool you. We each sleep with our own blankets on our sides.

All in all I'd say this day was pretty boring. I promise my life is a little more interesting than this. I like the idea of this photo diary, I might start making all my posts this way.

Why We Need a Freezer

We went out the night before to another party a few weeks back. This time Scott went out to a bar afterwards (I went home) and then decided soon after he got there to walk home. In his drunkenness he forgot to set his alarm and was almost late for work. While he was at work I did some cleaning. I did make it to work on time. The tweet above is the last of that night, thankfully. West Broadway was desolate at the late hour. Now that I've walked, nee stumbled, the entire North Minneapolis stretch of Broadway at that time, I have no fear of my side of town. I finally got around to washing all of our winter clothing after Scott went to work. Yup oatmeal again this week. Scott wanted big pancake, but neither of us got up on time. We finished planting our garden this past week too. It will be interesting to see how much it grows each week. I also planted sunflowers all along the edge of the fence. All but 10 squares have something growing in it. We also put in an he...

Freaster Sunday

We decided to stay home for Easter this year. We've missed the past few years and seem to be okay with it. We still celebrate in our own way. For breakfast I made oat bran. This time I sweetened it with a little agave. Scott seems to think I only like my oats bland, but that's not true. I make truly interesting oats. Agave, my friends, does not make oatmeal tasty. If you're looking for a quick, but complex variation try this recipe the next time you have a few extra minutes -- unless you like bland-meal. Steel-cut Oats w/ Apple Chips, Raisins and Cinnamon 1 C Water 2/3 C Steel Cut Oats Handful of Apple Chips 1/4 C Raisins 2 T Brown Sugar 1 t Cinnamon Pinch of Salt Cook the first two ingredients for a few minutes over medium heat. When water starts to simmer lower heat and add dried fruit. Cook until tender. While still on heat add a teaspoon of cinnamon, two tablespoons brown sugar and a pinch of salt. Eat. Scott looked for his Easter ba...

Solo Work Trip to Burlington, Vermont

My new favorite client sent me out to Burlington, Vermont for a shoot at Champlain College. With no rental cars anywhere nearby, I spent a few days walking around Burlington when I was shooting 360s. We tried to figure out a way for all of us to go, but for the short amount of time we'd be there it didn't seem worth it for how much it was going to cost. I'm not sure if you were aware, but as the largest city in Vermont, Burlington only has 44,000 residents. That's nuts. A small suburb in the Twin Cities. First meal at El Cortijo. Modern tex-mex in an old dinning car. The whole city is centered on Church Street, which was full of somewhat bougie stores and restaurants. At the end of the church street is the Unitarian Meeting House which the street is named for. I meandered my way down to the Lake Champlain waterfront. In the distance is New York State and the Adirondack Mountains. It's not a Great Lake by any means, but it's big. Twice the size of Mille Lacs in ...
