11:00 AM: Weekly conference call. (I wanted to take a picture of this, but my co-workers would have taken my camera away. :))

11:45 AM: Get the mail. This is usually the most exciting event of my morning.

12:00 PM: Wednesday lunch with Lawson, Stephanie, and Jeremy at Romeo's. Jeremy shows off his new watch. Stephanie and I exclaim over discrepancies in The Two Towers movie. :)

10:45 PM: We look at the finished product and are happy. (I tried to take a picture, but it's just too dark.)

11:25 PM: Exhaustion sets in. I collapse.

I seriously need to teach you how to hold the camera steady when you're taking a picture. I really liked that picture of me, and was going to possibly use it for an LJ image, but it came out all blurry...

BTW, who's that Indian chick in your LJ picture??? :P

[chestnutcurls.livejournal.com]

Well, it's not very easy to take pictures when you have to take them secretly half the time because no one wants their picture taken. And it's hard to hold the camera still. Sorry. :P

Oh well... I guess I'll get over it, given time. :P

Seriously, who's the Indian chick?

[chestnutcurls.livejournal.com]

The heiress to the throne of Gondor! :)

[sominfun.livejournal.com]

Very fun. Thanks for sharing. Makes me want a digital camera. :)

You are off your nut!

Heir to the throne of Gondor!

Snicker!

I have some crazy pictures of myself, but I don't have the time to do a website to put them up on.

This was so fun! Thanks. So did the starry sky turn out really well? Do you think it's worth the time/effort/cost?

[chestnutcurls.livejournal.com]

It's hard to tell yet, because it didn't get to "charge" for very long before I went to sleep. And I'm worried that I didn't use enough paint; Evan did one side for me, and his side looks better. :P It's pretty neat, though. It looks like a real sky.

How Fun! You did a wonderful job (don't let Lawson make fun of your photo taking ability!) It was a wonderful distraction for me during class. ;)
Love the Brens!

Eee! Such cuteness! Throne of Gondor! BWAH! You're so silly. I love it. :-)

I want a digital camera, wah! I have to do this!

[chestnutcurls.livejournal.com]

Just find someone who has one and borrow theirs! :)

[markis97.livejournal.com]

Very amusing, it makes me want to do one too. Though mine is far more boring :-D

[nancinator.livejournal.com]

This entry was great. :) And by the by, I love your "heiress" picture. You look maahvelous dahhling, simply maahvelous. :)

Queen Brenda

[nova-wylde.livejournal.com]

If you're gonna claim the throne of Gondor, I guess I'll call you "Queen Brenda", your highness. *bows humbly in the presence of royalty* Uhm, wait a sec...where exactly is Gondor, anyway? :P

Judging by the times you put by some of your pics and descriptions, the place where you work at must be pretty close by.

If you can get any good pics of your star stencil, I wanna see them, cuz when you showed the link to it from the site you ordered it from, it looked pretty neat! :)

Maybe you oughtta make a videography of A Day in The Life of Brendaas well, since you took pictures, hehe. :D
