I Will Never Ever Be The First To Say It

I am stuck at the airport, my plane is delayed.. so what do I do? Post photos, of course, soooo narcissistic, mais oui.

I love these particular photos. I believe B compared this tunic to something off of Dynasty (I mean, really, how would either of us know, really..? Have you ever seen Dynasty? I thought not.. and yes, she meant it as an insult, not a 'wow, you're bringing back the 80s in the most FABulous way' way). I don't care. This is one of my prouder ebay finds- one of those ones where the picture is awful and the description is essentially nonexistent and you buy the dirt-cheap (relatively) item out of some strange hope that it can't be as bad as it's presented. It wasn't. By a long shot. Not only is this the rare trophy shirt (or so I'm told they're called) that is small enough for me (I swear, they made most of these things for linebackers or something...), it's in great shape, and I love the length. Iiiiiit's pretty awesome, and I think it photographs rather nicely, especially in the falling light. Aaaahhhh, twilight, you were my favorite time of day until the vampires ruined you...

In addition to twilight, I love me some dilapidated building (ok, grammatically questionable, but whatever). This in particular was wonderful- run-down, raw wood, approximately 12 million loose bits ready to lodge themselves in your thighs as splinters, poison ivy... But the separation of the beams and the falling-down nature of the place were great for their light possibilities. 

And because what series of photos would be complete without a girl on a piece of machinery picture, I present you this:


Ah yes, so natural with my deer-caught-in-the-flashbulb look. Spent years perfecting that one. If only the gold and yellow didn't clash so badly, this is one photo that I think is going in the right direction with flash. Generally I'm wholly against it. This... well, it wants to work so badly, and it's on its way. I'll work on that.
