So I stepped out of my comfort zone today.
My photography professor has assignments for us.
One of them is to take pictures of animals/livestock.
She said road kill was cool too.
There was a dead coon on the road to wal-mart.
It looked so sweet-
Almost like it was sleeping in the middle of the road.
I always hate seeing road kill-
cause it makes me sad.
I feel so bad for the dead creature.
After wal-mart I passed Ralph-
(that's what I named him)
And after I passed him I felt the need to turn back.
So I did.
I took some pictures.
And I realized Ralph's mouth was open.
His tongue was hanging out.
He didn't look like he was sleeping anymore.
But I did it.
I got up close to a coon.
Now all I have to do is wait until deer season.
The truckers can't help but splash through those poor, poor deer.
Last winter there were splatters of deer on the same road as Ralph.
You only knew it was deer because the skinless rib cage was so big.
"...I love you because I know no other way than this: where I does not exist, nor you, so close that your hand on my chest is my hand, so close that your eyes close as I fall asleep." -Pablo Neruda

I'm going back to school.
After being out for 2 years I felt it was about time.

That's not so exciting.

Family Trip... up to see us.
My mom and little sis are here this weekend.
So far it's been alright. I don't think we are all so used to being in such tight quarters but I think we'll all deal.

Hey fellas. Slow down, we're engaged.
Congratulations to my brother-in-law Brent who is officially engaged as of eight o'clock last night to his girlfriend of (almost) a year, Alyssa.
Technically it's not correct but I'm glad she'll be my sister-in-law.
I say I was here first so therefore I have rights to Bryan's brothers as my own and they are.
I love you boys. You're my favorite brothers in the world and I couldn't ask for better cause you're the best.
Congratulations again Brent and Alyssa.
You both deserve the best and you two are it.

BitterSweet
So today I put in my two weeks as a nanny for Josiah. I am officially going back to school to be an Art Major. I'm really pumped but after I got home and looked at the picture of Josiah from the day I realized just how much I've grown attatched to the little guy. So all in all it truly is bitter sweet.
Dearest Josiah,
My little love. How I will miss you and your sloppy kisses. The way you cringe when you eat peas and how you smell when you poop your diaper. Oh the fun we have had over the past seven months. All your crazy grunts and the mischevious grin you give me when you know you're doing something you shouldn't. And how you've grown, from a tiny baby that was swaddled in my arms to a crazed crawler. I still love you bud. And I will always be your Aunt Seppy.

Married on a Tuesday
It's our 2nd anniversary today! What a wonderful two years. And not to mention that I'm married to the most wonderful, sweetest, loving and most handsome man. I wouldn't trade him for the world.
And happy anniversary to our capoeira friend, Joseph and his wife.
We're not the only crazies to get married on a Tuesday.
On another note I'm going back to school to get a degree in Arts. If you know my last attempt at college then you know that I pretty well got screwed on the whole deal. So... I'm starting over. Basically. But frankly I don't mind and I'm excited and nervous all at the same time. But it's either be nervous at a new college or watch the baby for the rest of my life.
Not happening.
Anyway, I'm so happy! Yay.
Ok that's all.
...Yay!
