2.9.11

So. Sick. Of. Winter. Okay done.


I'm sitting at work right now, on my break, drinking an iced white mocha with some toffee nut thrown into the mix. It's pretty decent. Yesterday Elle and I met at the Panera by her house and hashed out an outline for her midterm. We went the route of writing about the protestant reformation in the 14th-16th centuries, something I'm vaguely familiar about. The Black Plague would've been more interesting, but as I am sick and because we were pressed for time, we went with something we knew. I saw my old co-worker Aubree there, and after Panera we went to the Fairfield Mall and saw another old co-worker, Chris, working at the Bux there. He hooked up Elle with a venti iced coffee and four shots of espresso to assist her in her all-nighter last night. Elle and I parted ways till Friday, and I gave Tanner a bone he fell head-over-heels for. It's become the definition of his life, he's wholly obsessed. He tried to climb a bookcase to get it, most adorable albeit stupid thing ever.

Life isn't too exciting right now. I mean, it's going good. Writing, drinking coffee, hanging out with friends, dating a wonderful girl, fabulous trips to Cincinnati, making good hours at work. I'm sure once spring comes around, there will be more thoughts to post, more adventures to write about; but for right now, my life consists of nothing invigorating. And because of this, I've decided to do on my blog what's called "The 30 Day Photo Challenge." Essentially for thirty days--although, in reality, there will be intermissions here-and-there when I decide I want to write about something else--I will post a picture in line with the subject and write about that subject and/or picture. Here's the schema (and we start tomorrow):

Day 01 - A picture of yourself with fifteen facts.
Day 02 - A picture of you and the person you have been close with for awhile.
Day 03 - A picture of the cast from your favorite show. 
Day 04 - A picture of your night. 
Day 05 - A picture of your favorite memory. 
Day 06 - A picture of a person you'd love to trade places with for a day. 
Day 07 - A picture of your most treasured item.
Day 08 - A picture that makes you laugh.
Day 09 - A picture of the person who has gotten you through the most.
Day 10 - A picture of the person you do the strangest things with.
Day 11 - A picture of something you hate.
Day 12 - A picture of something you love.
Day 13 - A picture of your favorite band or artist.
Day 14 - A picture of someone you could never imagine your life without.
Day 15 - A picture of something you want to do before you die.
Day 16 - A picture of someone who inspires you.
Day 17 - A picture of something that has made a huge impact on your life recently.
Day 18 - A picture of your biggest insecurity.
Day 19 - A picture of you when you were little.
Day 20 - A picture of somewhere you'd love to travel. 
Day 21 - A picture of something you wish you could forget.
Day 22 - A picture of something you wish you were better at.
Day 23 - A picture of your favorite book.
Day 24 - A picture of something you wish you could change.
Day 25 - A picture of your day.
Day 26 - A picture of something that means a lot to you.
Day 27 - A picture of yourself and a family member.
Day 28 - A picture of something you're afraid of.
Day 29 - A picture that can always make you smile.
Day 30 - A picture of someone you miss.
