a two joel post.

i want very much to give you something funny to read, but i don't have anything funny to tell you. i'm working on it, but my brain is very tired. i spent way too much time in my car this weekend, breathing exhaust fumes and other gross highway/car smells. i drove myself to waukesha (which, incidentally, is my favorite city to say these days) to celebrate my good friend joel's thirtieth. i hung out with he and nicole the next day and finally got to meet sweet taylor. we did a shoot with her on sunday morning, which means i got to use my new camera. yes, friends... it's finally here. after two months of waiting, i have held in my hands the goodness that is the d200. amazing shots were gotten, thanks both to the fantastic camera and the beautiful child that is taylor. i'd love to show you a shot or two, but i didn't ask if that was okay with joel and nicole. so, you'll just have to trust me... they're good.

wait... i did think of something mildly funny...

last night, after hanging with halle and maggie, i made my way downstairs to watch a few johnny cash documentaries and sleep. i did not sleep well. a major part of it was that i slept the wrong direction, due entirely to wanting to lay down while watching tv. the other reason was that there was a noise, not super rhythmic, but fairly consistent that was present the entire night. i thought for sure it was one of joel's studio machines and i felt fairly certain that i would break something if i tried to turn it off. so, i dealt. i woke up a lot and listened to the noises, but as tired as i was, i fell back asleep quickly.

this morning, the first thing i did when i got up was to investigate. do you know what it was? the treadmill. it was the treadmill. i could have shut the treadmill off. indeed i could have. but the call of exercise was foreign to me... i didn't recognize the sound. how sad.

i agree, kristin, but the spam comments it prevents are even more annoying... :)

why the treadmill was on? do we ever know? in this case, yes, we do. it was left on by two lovely little girls who like to play on it...
