Crazy Love

This one was hard for me, I haven't been able to photograph "crazed" well at all. I've seen some crazy things, for sure but it's been difficult to document. But things changed when the Van Morrison song, "Crazy Love" kept getting stuck in my head while I kept thinking about this idea of "crazed" and the many ways it's demonstrated in people. I kept seeing people in love, everywhere. And the benefit is that since lovers are so into each other, they oftentimes don't even notice that I'm snapping pictures of their public adulation for one another. Love, love, love, love, crazy love.

c-c-c-crazed

Habla Espanol? Ya, me neither. And yet, I am in this class. This weekend is all about reviewing all the Spanish I thought I had learned last year. It's been a year. And we're reading short stories. En sobre mi cabeza. Estoy loca, no?


School is not out for the summer.

Flabbergasted seems dramatic

Herrington girls aren't known for their subtlety. I may resent being labeled "dramatic" but I have to admit that I'm very reactionary. I respond with vivacity and excitement...and it's rarely quiet. I wouldn't claim to be truly flabbergasted here but, I was surprised (and since Rachel so kindly defined the word for us a few months back, I'm certain I've managed to photograph something that is at least close to "flabbergasting"). It's not often you walk around in a large city and are confronted by roaming and free chickens, that's surprising.

Let's give it another shot! Now that Rachel has an ETSY account, (she's like a real photographer) and I have regular Internet access...we can do this! Jen and Jessica won't, of course. But...Annie is loyal, Rachel's a bona fide blogger

And I'm just happy to participate! So I'm picking up where I left off...familiar. Falling is familiar to me. I have a propensity for disaster....here is the newest battle scar.





Let it be known, I ate dirt (literally, proper use of the word too) 6 minutes into my run and continued on because what's the point of a run that short? This is what I looked like afterward, B.A. I know ;).

words, words, words...

New word: (cause we're still doing this right?) Crazed.

Because we are sisters, and sisters do what their other sisters tell them to do. 

Defined

I originally thought that flabbergasted meant something else so for those of you who don't know here is the definition: to overwhelm with shock, surprise or wonder. I don't have a car right now so my super cute bike is how I get around. Fortunately it has never rained when I ride to work but the temperature did drop drastically last week. I bundled up in two shirts, a sweater, a peacoat, hand warmers and a scarf thinking I was well prepared. When I walk outside to get my bike, it's cold but I'm confident I can handle it. And then I get on the bike and start to ride. The cold air is confronting my face fast and hard, my exposed fingers are freezing into the shape of the handle bars, and people, warm in their cars, are staring in surprise at the girl who would ride her bike in this cold. 

Next word is.....flabbergasting:)
