Pathetic

So it's almost the end of February, and I've been super slack on my postings.

In my defense, I've been busy.

Busy with school, and work, and of course, procrastination...

And this little tool does nothing to help at all!

It produces some awesome pictures, with a touch of the Polaroid magic.

It adds some 80s feel to beach pictures...

It makes snow in Central Park look even better...

And does really nothing for this picture...
just makes it look even more ridiculous!

So yes, I'm blaming my procrastination on my fondness for the look of Polaroid.


Try it, it's addictive!!

so exciting 'round these parts

I have a car.
She is red and cute.
And she is a 'she.'
When she was first purchased, she was given the name of Roxy 2.
Because the number at the end is just plain awful, she is called Roxy.
This name suits her well.

The other day, Roxy hit a car milestone.
It wasn't anything too big, but I was excited for it.


Roxy hit 100,000 miles.


I understand that for a car, this may not be big news,
But for Roxy, anything is a cause for celebration.

So, for a treat, we took Roxy to the Ashburner for some chicken sandwiches and beer.
She really enjoyed herself.

Right before the big milestone...

Roxy and I were shaking from the excitement!

Slow and steady wins the race....

Slowly but surely
(really, really, really slowly)
I am knocking items off of my to-do list.

The first item came with plenty of help from my parents
(because the gift was given with 'installation included')

So here's a before:


And an after!
My books have a home for now...
Hopefully, I will find a better way to organize them,
But right now, mid-semester, this is perfect.
