I'm sure doing a shitty job at this blogging thing as of lately.. I just need to make a better effort of it. Saying the good things more often and venting a little bit of the bad-ish stuff. Just find a happy medium.

I'm actually not sure what I mentioned last. But Emmit and I finally went to Oregon. It was such a wonderful trip holy crap. I took loads of photos including lots on my film camera.. Which resulted in 2 wasted rolls. Nothing came out. So that sucked. But you live and you learn.

Thankfully that's not all I used.

Here are some I enjoyed the most from my Nikon. I'll go further into detail hopefully soon. But I have to go to work. 

7:50pm

Tomorrow morning Em and I are driving to Oregon and I’m trying my best to contain my excitement..!!

We have been taking about this road trip for so long and now it’s finally here.

Going at it with hardly a plan and cameras near at all times.
Checking out schools and the area. Exploring. Familiarizing. Enjoying our time together most of all. Not being coworkers for a week will be so nice.

We will be there the 8th-14th.


(The 11th is our 1 year mark…….. Very much in shock) but oh so very happy.
Happy happy happy. That’s what he makes me. Just about all the time.
I’m thrilled to be in a town that 
s c r e a m s autumn when the season is just starting to peak through.

I’m rambling but it’s because I’m so excited. Yeah. I’m sure you’ll hear more as the adventure happens.

10:00pm

Had the day off. Got some shots on film and lots on digital of my nephew and sister and all that family. 4 generations and the lighting was grand.

Stayed for dinner and that was nice too.

I've been talking a lot to Charisse and I enjoy that a bunch.

-------------------------------------

I met up with Em for an hour or so. We were going to try and get some Oregon research done but he slept for the majority of the day and then we saw his mom and sister.

I always enjoy seeing them.

Lately I've been in the mood to draw, and I need to make that a priority.

I wake up early tomorrow for work (yay for seeing Sophie!) (seeing as how it's the weekend)..

And then after I'm taking photos of Juleia and her family. Going for a second round at the Empire Mine since I royally fucked up last time. 

(Still can't believe I lost an effing memory card.) so I won't let that happen ever again.

Anyways. It's been pretty mellow. But I'm still very tired. I find that these days are when I'm somehow even the most tired. I don't know..

So I'm gonna call it a night.

8:16pm

We have the 8th-15th off!! I can't even begin to describe my excitement. (Mainly because it hasn't hit me.) And most likely won't until we are on the road.

We will probably take my car and then stay with Dallas when we get there. But Em wants to camp a little bit on our way there. And I'm not opposed to that. I'm so looking forward to this.. I need a break from my 40 hour work weeks. I know I need to save up but I also need to live.

Can't wait to look at schools, take photos, explore shops and whatnot. Do things that I didn't get to when I went last year. This is all becoming real. Future stuff. It's happening.
