Raking the leaves makes for great photo ops :D

painting.. standstill :(

Sooo I'm at a standstill with painting until this Friday. I am needing more acrylics and well... clay too! I'm wanting to start sculpting again and w/out the $$ I can't do anything right now. Really frustrating. Oh well, at least there is Friday (aka payday). Soo until then, I have a green canvas (along with green on my pants lol) with a blank center waiting for the lotus to be finished. UGH! Pictures of paintings are very finicky :P the colors never come out the way they are in real life. Oh well I guess maybe you'll have to go see it at Adventures Underground in the Uptown Center when it's finished. :D

Ingrid Michaelson, David Ford and Newton Faulkner

David Ford, first act.

Newton Faulkner, second act.

And the amazing Ingrid Michaelson.

The concert for Ingrid Michaelson with opening acts David Ford and also Newton Faulkner was Monday night. It was such an incredible night!! I've been to a few concerts and shows and the opening acts are generally so so but man they were FANTASTIC monday!!! David Ford does this whole one man band thing that is just WOW! And Newton Faulkner is so incredibly talented and the songs he sings are just... well I'm guessing that they will reach/touch each person differently sooo check them out for yourself k? The greatest part was finally getting to meet Ingrid M. I had joined up in her street team so that I would get to and didn't get the email until Tuesday that the meet and greet had been changed to 7:30pm instead of 6:30pm which I was there and waiting for anxiously. So I had been talking to her friend and salesperson Marylynn (who is absolutely FANTASTIC!!!) and she said that she would talk to Ingrid for me. Well she did and so did her drummer Elliot Jacobson and to make a long story short Ingrid came up from her little hiding place twice to meet with us (B, Ruth and I). We missed the first time because we thought we were supposed to be outside, but she came up again when we went inside and talked with Marylynn and Elliot and Elliot went down and told Ingrid that we were upstairs. They are all so sweet!!! Words cannot express what a wonderful time I had!!! I very much recommend getting to one of their shows before their tour is over. Tickets are stinkin cheap and the show is better than any I've been to (including much higher priced shows), seriously get out there and get your tickets now to a show near you.

A Wedding Weekend

So this weekend I was in a wedding, my beautiful cousin Tammy. It was wonderful!! I had some fun and got even more frustrated with my camera :( I'm officially looking for a temp job to buy a new camera. I love some of the pictures I got but they are all gritty and have too much noise!!! ARGH! Well here is one of my favorites :D

Thanks Larae!!!
