I am not what most people would picture when they think of a Harry Potter fan. I have seen all the movies - I actually own them all, but seldom watch them. I've read all the books - I don't own any of them. Have never read them a second time, which is unusual for me. They're entertaining.

I took some shots of horsies today for my equine photography course. It was fun! The horses were amazingly cooperative. Chinny is 31 and didn't object at all to being ridden even though he is officially retired. ;)http://www.flickr.com/photos/sweet_light

That was pretty much the highlight of Green Lake for me (oh, and the whippets we saw) other than just ( Read more... )

One of the crappiest things about running a new business is the way sometimes you have NO MONEY AT ALL, and then sometimes you have money coming in at you from all angles and you can barely find the time to get to teh bank several times a week to deposit all the checks. WTF. I just spent the last two months with like $3.00 in my bank account, and ( Read more... )
