Tuesday: Part Dos

So we had ourselves a bit of a down-home hail storm last night. About 10:30 we were pounded with hail ranging from the size of golf balls up to some as big as baseballs! I thought surely one of our windows was going to shatter. It did wake Wyatt up but he did well. Can't say the same for one of our cars....yikes! Good thing its a company car and we don't gotta foot the repair bill.

I snapped a few bath shots tonight and can't decide if I like this in color or BW best. I don't do many BW conversions. Not sure why really. Just don't think about it I guess. Anyway, I am sure Wyatt will be mortified of all the tub shots I have when he gets older. Sounds like sweet justice to me.....fair payback for not letting me sleep through the night for the last 2 and a half years. HA!





P.S. I don't recommend Crayola Bath Crayons. I thought they'd be sticks of colored soap but no. They're actual crayons and it makes the water kind of ickie.

I*HEART*Faces {Pets}

I figured I'd be wild and crazy this week and post a pic for the Pets category too. This is Tiki but he is a beast of many other names: Tiki-Tiger, Fatty-Pants, Tiki Monster just to mention a few. He was adopted the weekend after we got back from our honeymoon. I batted a few eyelashes, asked pretty please and a-home he came. Ahhh, the good old days when it was so very easy to get my way! So here's a shout out for our furbaby...

Check out I*HEART*Faces to see all the other cute pets this week!

Just curious....

Did I miss the memo that says once you turn 30 grey hairs start multiplying like a herd of jack rabbits on your head?

So not cool....seriously.

I*HEART*Faces {Pouty-Face}

I knew exactly which photo I wanted to submit this week. This was taken almost a year ago one Staurday afternoon while Jason was at work. Wy-Guy got quite upset at Mommy for not handing over my camera....bad Mommy! I had not yet discovered the wonderfulness of shooting in RAW format and this turned out way under-exposed. I've tried to tweak it and its still far from perfect, but thats how I roll around here at Perfectly Imperfect. Although I get to see this same pouty expression all the time, this is still one of favorite shots of all time, tears, flaws and all!

Of course why stop here? Head over to I*HEART*Faces for pouty faces galore!

Ummm....yeah..

I got nothin.
To say that is.
Or rather, nothin to say that might even slightly interest you but I'll humor you anyway.

Wyatt's got a cough. I suppose a cold is in progess. I think I'd take a cough and a cold over an upchuck any day though, so I'm ok with it. Besides, I think we've already met our yearly puke quota here in the Erlanson household.

Today was my last day of physical therapy....YAY for me and the $30 a week I can waste on much more entertaining things now.

Work. Sucks. A. Lot.
Ya know, I do have a B.A. in Psychology which I had fully expected to never use, yet it has become quite the regular occurance that I find myself trying (unsuccessfully I fear) to assure people that no matter how dreadful the economy is, it's not the end of the world. Today I found myself sitting at my desk saying a prayer for a woman in Houston TX after she expressed how she wanted drive her car off a bridge into a river. Was she serious? I don't know but I can say with certainty it was not a moment of humor or jest. She sounded pretty desperate and hopeless and maybe I was supposed to take that call and as a result have the concern to say a few words in my heart on her behalf. Its just getting heavy to talk to so many people that I feel I can't help.

Wow, aren't I a downer tonight?
Well at least tomorrow is Friday. I think Jason and I will get to have a dinner date too! Jason's mom offered her services to keep Wyatt entertained for a couple hours. We've long since stopped trying to eat anywhere that has longer than a 45second wait and doesn't serve food on plastic trays so this will surely be a treat! But for now I have a date with the DVR to see who got sent packing this week on America's Next Top Model....*guilty pleasure*.

I*HEART*Faces {No Flash}

So this week's challenge is about taking photos without using the flash. I strive to do this most of the time anyhow. Natural light is the best light.... at least until I can convince Jason that simply must have the external flash of my dreams (for a mere $350). *Sigh* A girl can dream, right?
Anyway, here is my entry this week.
