ACCORDING TO ZAC

This whole post is collection of the stuff that has happened in the last few days. You've been given fair warning as to how random all of this is. Firstly, remember when I posted the other day about how cold it was? Yeah, that was nothing. It got way colder than that. On Wednesday or Thursday, I checked the weather, and with windchill the temperature was 5 degrees. That doesn't happen here! Kelsey, I know you're scoffing again, but that's crazy business! At any rate, I got to wear my big coat with fur, my scarf, and a fun beanie! Also, our fountains froze over! It was totally nuts, but so dang cool to see. The weather has warmed up, but there's still ice out there. Also, remember when I posted about all of our lights that were trying to keep our plants warm? They didn't really work. Most of them are damaged now, and my dad isn't sure how well they'll come back. As he says it, frost-tolerant plants are rarely pretty. That's why we don't own any....

Kendle and I have been friends for a long time. We haven't gotten to see each other much lately, but the other day she said she had something for me and that I should pick it up. Well, I had commissioned a painting a while back, and it was done! It was based on a series of four I had seen at Z-Gallerie (camera, turn table, typewriter, headphones). I haven't decided which I'm going to have done next, but I'm thinking I could use one or two more. Kendle, you are truly fantastic. I love that we can talk about art and color and design, and it never gets old. You are a big reason I'm so invested in photography. :) ::  [Sunlight is coming through the back, creating the white streaks.] :: :: [For the record, Zacky Poo is an exclusive name only Kendle calls me. It is generally unwelcome, and always unstoppable. I accept it as a sign of her friendship. Haha] :: :: :: ::
