August, Part the First

Nectar

I could probably say many intelligent things about this butterfly at the Como Zoo, like what species it is, or perhaps a word or two about proboscises, but really, I mean, look at that rotten banana. Gross!




Academics

After five years I get these things in the mail telling me I’ve accomplished the American Dream. A college diploma and a teaching license! Look out world, here I come!

Or something.

In reality, college is a series of important conversations interrupted by sleep and class. 99% of what you learn, you learn outside the classroom.

For example, I can hit a man in the head with a nerf rocket from over 25 feet away.



Shadows on the Wall

This just illustrates the whole point of this little experiment…there are pictures everywhere. This one here is my silhouette as I brushed my teeth at night. You’ve got to keep a sharp eye out for these moments of art. Plus you can get a lot of thinking done when you’re brushing your teeth.



Subconscious

This is a shower curtain.

I stared at it a lot as a child, but now, coming home after half a year away, I think it’s kinda creepy.

Mostly because it is remarkably similar to this hallucination I had this one time.



Candle

I'm not a pyromaniac, I just like to burn things.



Hair

Each time I try to tame my hair, it only makes it stronger.



Lilies

Flowers from below.



Tomatoes

These smell like summer.



Wedding

Tracy got married on the 16th. It was one of those moments where you realize your friends are grown-ups, and maybe you should be too. And then you decide not to anyway.
