So, I have a new bloggery deal going on. I've decided to have a picture blog, post all my favorite pictures with captions, and document some stuff that way. So... even if I don't write about something in particular, I almsot always have picture of stuff, so...

Anyway, the site is... Here. Boojyah! LoL

Mother's Day was nice- got together with the Mom-fam and had turkey (for mother's day?!). It was really good. I got to see my newest little cuz, Elizabeth something-or-other, when Gretchen stopped by to say hi. Nice surprise- they were in town, usually I only see them once or twice a year. I'm soblah these days.

College makes me horribly lazy. *sigh* Stupid little blah thing. I told Naomi last night that it seems like RP is pointless. Just... stupid pointless little people playing a stupid pointless little game. And she got mad at me. I think. I don't even know. I can't remember.

The cow picture kind of gave me a start, can i jsut tell you? I remember it so clearly, like it was yesterday and not 4 days short of a month ago. I was driving slow and careful on the highway, the speed limit down the backroads I usually tear down at 50 or so, risking everything on hairpin turns. I was so careful, because I was afraid if I let go for a minute, I'd never stop. I'd just go faster and faster until my tires left the ground and... Just as I was thinking about it, with this hairpin turn coming up- the worst on the road, I saw these cows. I screeched to a halt, pulled off the road, ripped out the camera I somehow remembered to bring, and crossed to street to lean over their fence to take pictures. It was so peaceful, so quiet and calm and beautiful, I couldn't help but sit there a few minutes and breathe it in- it was weird. There was no scent on the air except daffodils from the next farm over (also pictured), and it was getting twilight. It was Heaven to the Hell that was brewing in me. It was the peace I needed, the reminder to what could be, that allowed me to get home in one piece. *nod* That picture sure does say 1,000 words, though I doubt any of you can hear them.
