She flirted with me from afar as the brightly colored leaves flickered sunlight upon her gown.
Without saying a word I approached her but her shy eyes never met mine. |

| Tonight, well very very early this morning, say about 4 a.m. I lay in bed trying to convince myself that I wasn't hungry. I wasn't hungry because there wasn't anything in the house that I cared to eat and I really didn't want to have to get dressed and go out into the cold to get anything that would satisfy. Well, the insistent stomach that I have told me I'd never be able to get back to sleep if I didn't in fact eat something.
What I decided I wanted I didn't have, so I pulled on yesterdays jeans and a wrinkled shirt. ( what do you want? I'm not going to pull out the clothing iron, it's 4 a.m.) I headed off to get breakfast cereal, a Special K generic that I rather enjoy. So I get home with the new box on the counter and a freshly opened milk container.
Well, it's about this time that my twelve year old self asks "Do you think you could eat this entire 12 oz box all in one setting"? Some how I had just let my childhood brain challenge the adult. It must be the lack of sleep the past few nights.
It is now 5:39 a.m. There is an empty box and half a gallon or so less milk. It's no wonder I'm having trouble sleeping. My lack of blogging lately isn't due to being lazy. I recently ran another 5K. I went to photograph a Fox Hunt complete with hound dogs and joined a racquetball league. I have enjoyed a day of selling my photos in the near by park, and I am preparing to do so again this weekend. This time it will be in our city's art gallery in conjunction with the annual "Fall Color Tour" of the county. Well, since I'm no longer hungry I think I will try to get some sleep. For the record: I may have exaggerated a little for dramatic effect. I actually only ate one bowl of cereal, not the whole box. Thus disappointing my twelve year old self. |

| Nathan and I had a wonderful unplanned eventful weekend. Saturday night we went to support a venue who was throwing an event to raise money. Both the food and the music were amazing. We had brunch at one of my favorite little places to dine on Sunday and had a lovely walk in a new park in a near by town. It was a beautiful day and it was pleasant to just kind of wander together, chatting, laughing, and watching others while drinking our coffee. We each shot some pictures so when I get them off the camera I will share them. But for now, it's late. I worked a twelve hour day (hence the moody matthew) and I need some sleep. BTW: my pulse is something I wrote some weeks ago and decided to make public today as it's been "that kind" of day. Rest well my xangan friends... tomorrow is another day.

| I over slept yesterday morning and instead of walking into work late I decided to just stay home. It turned out to be a very nice afternoon. I did a little shopping, a little wandering and I shot some pictures. A few of my favorite things 
This weekend we (Nathan and I) will be busy helping a friend paint her new apartment before then helping her to move in. Between the strokes of paint and the boxes carried I expect laughter will get us through. Happy Friday ... I hope the weekend treats you well. *~matthew~* |
