um, long time, blah

you know, sometimes a little facebook popularity can brighten up what might otherwise be a pretty boring day. :)


wow, i haven't updated my blog in so long! so much has happened. hmmm. the awesomeness of life in the midwest has subsided a little. it's great to be close to my family, and the boyfriend is still adorable, but i had to quit my job at SEIU because they're shady as hell and treat their workers like shit. so, yeah, i've been jobless for about 4 weeks now, and i just can't seem to find anything i really want to do. so now i'm going to have to start doing work i don't want to do. i guess millions of people do work they don't really want to do every day, so i should just get over myself.

anyway! here are some pictures of katie! she's 7 months old now.

here she is with her favorite toy, an empty 2-liter bottle of diet mountain dew:



reading the paper with my/her uncle jeff:


i also spent a week in huntsville, AL, helping tedi with her new baby, avin, who is freaking awesome and tiny as hell. i'll have some pictures of him in the next few days.
