Finally, the depression has let up… I feel like I just broke through the surface of the water and I’m gasping for breath.

I have a couple out-takes to show you from a toddler session I did.
Hey, you’re not the only one that can be funny. I’m pretty funny. And I know funny. I’m a clownfish*.
*I’m not a clownfish. I just play one on TV**.
**I don’t play a clownfish on TV.

Yay! and Boo.
An Amazon order came today!
I ordered “Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can’t Stop Talking” by Susan Cain. I’m pretty excited to tear into it; I think I’m going to get a lot out of it. I found out about this book when a link to a YouTube video of Susan Cain giving a TEDtalks presentation about how introverts kind of get the shaft in this extrovert-lovin’ world went around Google+.
I also ordered “Let’s Pretend This Never Happened: A Mostly True Memoir” by Jenny Lawson. Tom and I have been reading her blog since 2007. She’s also the matchmaker that hooked me and Louise up to get me a set of knitted genitalia.
Tom and I can’t wait to read Jenny’s book! Hi, Jenny!
Here’s links to get these books… (disclaimer: if you click this link and buy anything from Amazon, Amazon will give me a referral fee. I may be able to get that package of toilet paper I’ve had my eye on.)
Ahhhh, what else is going on around this joint?
I’m spending more time on Google+ than Facebook.
I set up my photography for sale on Zenfolio but I’m not quite ready to unveil it yet. I want to get more up there first.
I’ve sold stuff in my Zazzle store and I have $30 to spend there. :)
I’m incredibly frustrated that I’ve had two Passion Parties and one Thirty-one Party cancel at the last minute recently. I want more parties. I’ve tried email, text, Facebook… I can’t get people to respond, or they say they’ll have a party then postpone it and ignore me when I try to get them to pick a new date. I don’t get it; it’s two maybe three hours out of your life, you get free stuff, you support a small business, I get paid… it’s all a win-win-win situation for everyone. Why wouldn’t you want to have a party or at least hold your date? Imma keep at it though. Enough whining.
What’s up with you?
Advice from Ze Frank
This is so powerful. I will be coming back to watch it again and again.
p.s. Happy Friday the 13th!
I just got my first paid engagement and wedding portrait gig!
I’m on cloud nine right now… I’m SO stoked!
Do me a favor, will ya? Make a concerted effort to celebrate EVERY success you have. And with the same degree of enthusiasm, whether you just got hired or you managed to make it out into the world in the morning instead of staying cowered under the covers in bed, and everything in between. Then you take that feeling and you tuck it away for later, like a squirrel stores nuts in the winter. Because, winter comes, and you’ll need it.
