Thirty Day Challenge: Day 9

Day 09 - A picture of the person who has gotten you through the most



This is my lovely boyfriend, Tom. I stole this photo from facebook--I wasn't actually there when this was taken, but I wanted to use it because it's so great (and better quality than most of my photos). He's giving the toast as best man at his brother's wedding reception. He's also holding champagne, which is ironic because he doesn't drink.

Anyway, Tom has certainly gotten me through a lot. He's a great listener and always has the best advice. Cheers to you, Tom.

Whoever created this picture needs a serious handshake.

Day 07 - A picture of your most treasured item




I try not to be too attached to "items," but I can't help it--I do still have a lot of sentimental value associated with some of my belongings. This is a sculpture my dad made from tree parts in the late '70s. The sombrero, leis, and other decorations are my own additions. When it was at my parents' house, it was used as a hat rack. My dad passed it on to me several years ago, and since then it has certainly been a point of interest for anyone who comes to visit.

Day 06 - A picture of a person you'd love to trade places with for a day



I would like to trade places with Zooey Deschanel as Trillian in the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy move. Not only would I get to travel through outer space in comfort, but I'd also get to do it while being adorable. Ha.

Thirty Day Challenge: Day 5

Day 05 - A picture of your favorite memory



It's hard to pick just one favorite memory; I feel like I have an abundance of good memories (bad memories too, but I like to think the good outweigh the bad). Also, I don't have many photos of early childhood memories, as most of those are at my parents' house.

Anyway, this is a photo from approximately 2003 or so. My friend and I liked to go exploring around a large park on the outskirts of town. One day we came across a big expanse of land with horses! We were probably trespassing, but we probably didn't care. They were friendly horses--they walked right up to us and we petted them. The day itself was gorgeous, with sunshine and bright blue skies. That is one thing I do miss about living pretty much in the middle of nowhere on the plains--the simple yet beautiful landscapes.

Day 04 - A picture of your night



My night: hanging out on the couch with Tom. As I am blogging, he is knitting his first scarf. He is getting so good at knitting! One of these days he'll have to teach me. I tried my hand at knitting for a while a few years back--and failed miserably.

Day 03 - A picture of the cast from your favorite show



The Office never fails to make me laugh. I don't care if it's silly and sometimes stupid--I'm always in a better mood after watching this show.
