Okeyley doleley….
So, I finally got some pictures processed and posted, which I know excites you all….
Shut up. It excites you.
First, my 2 finals:
<–Mixed Media– you saw the preliminary sketch
The Final:
And my Typography final, which was the front an back of a 12×12 record album cover, which I chose to do for my fictional band, Mad at my Cat, with an autobiographical Alice in Wonderland theme:
Now, here is a photo of Mercury helping me unpack, once I finally got around to emptying some boxes:
And…some pictures from the day that H and I spent tooling around PGH:
<–at the Three Rivers Arts Festival
<– still at TRAF (it was hot. We found a lot of opportunities to chill in the shade that day) (It totally looks like that arrow is pointing at her boobs.)
<–some guy with fluffy hair playing his instrument at TRAF
<– H taking photos on the Smithfield St. Bridge
<–in her pretty new pearls on the SSBridge.
<–after she decided that she also needed a skinny red belt and a red headband and the awesome new shoes that you can’t see in this photo. (hey…you should have seen what I was wearing that day…)
Anyway, Sunday we all went to Briggs’ parents for Dad’s Day/Stepmom’s bday….and I didn’t really get any good photos from that (it was dim in their house) but I got pictures of shopping at Lowe’s for presents and the stop at the Giant Eagle Express on the way home…
<–Heather investigates Cacti
<–She continues to do so.
<–Briggs contemplates my choice of windchime.
<–relatively extreeeeeeeemmmm closeup.
Shortly after this, a Lowes employee walked up to me and asked, “Who are you, and why are you taking pictures?” I guess she thought I was stealing company secrets. When I tried to explain that I was documenting a day out with my friends, she didn’t seem to understand why I would want to do that. I guess she isn’t familiar with the technological revolution and how it has created a need in all young people to pictorally capture every moment of their day-to-day lives for later blogging…
I present as proof: Photos of Heather grocery shopping–
<–she looks stoned in this one, like the munchies hit and she managed to make it to the grocery store, but she is now overwhelmed by the options. (who hasn’t been there? I miss you, senior year of high school….)
<–This one just says, ‘hey, you! buy some vividly colored, healthy and delicous vegies!’. Or at least that’s what I get out of it. 
Then today, I forced Heather to go on a gentle, leisurely walk through the pretty countryside with me. Okay, so that’s kind of what I implied that we were doing. I didn’t mention that the path we were taking would be somewhat steeply downhill all the way to the train tracks, yet strangely, UPHILL all the way back. I’m a bastard. However, I took a picture of pretty butterflies while we were walking along the tracks.
However, we saw no trains. I think we were both a little dissapointed. Even more dissapointed when we learned that downhill had reversed itself while we were away.
Hey…remember that adorable kitten that Briggs and I almost adopted?
