I love Mr. Picassohead.

This is really tough, trying to choose favorite blog posts. I'm just choosing the one.

postsecret

PostSecret is an ongoing community art project where people mail in their secrets anonymously on one side of a postcard. I like to post one that speaks to me each week. This week two spoke to me.

struggle...

Day 20, Monday: Get real. Share something you're struggling with right now.

To be honest, I'm so hyped up from the trip that I don't know what I'm struggling with now. I got to spend time with my family, the wedding and reception were a blast. I'm tired. And I don't want to go to school tomorrow.

here come the bride and groom...

Just getting home from The Wedding, in Pennsylvania. It was a whirlwind weekend, starting with traveling after school on Thursday. Here are the bride and groom. They are gorgeous and the wedding was a blast! I am so glad (almost) the whole family was there. And fortunately, the drive was uneventful.

Day 19, Sunday: Five of your favorite blogs and what you love about them

In no particular order:

1) Diana's Little Corner In The Nutmeg State. Diana is a trans-activist who continually teaches me to be empathetic and accepting.

2) Knitting At Large. Julie's teaching me how to knit. She doesn't know it.

3) TYWKIWDBI. You just never know what you'll learn here.

4) Alison's Book Marks. Almost every book she reviews becomes one of my Must Reads. We have similar taste.

5) 22 Words. Pure fun. Weird goodness.

childhood

Day 18, Saturday: Tell a story from your childhood. Dig deep and try to be descriptive about what you remember and how you felt.

My sisters used to tease me terribly. They would take books away from me, read the ending, then tell me all about the ending--ruining the book. I remember how frustrated, powerless, and angry I was. Just thinking about how awfully they teased me gives me a knot in the pit of my stomach.

Day 17, Friday: A favorite photo of yourself and why


This is my current favorite photo because it is a moment in time that means a lot to me.
