A tea candle whose flame escapes the lens.


These are weird red rock formations just west of Denver right along the front range.


I'm jealous of how much this cat can stretch: teach me your ways, master.


This is a goodbye photo of the girls at breakfast before we all part ways - sadly, not just for summer, but for indefinite.

I believe this is the first time I've ever seen silver-lined roses, which Gracie got for her 30th birthday.


A Greek-like structure, a sage of a tree coming alive for yet another spring, and a park bench underneath it. I like Cheesman Park.


Oh, and what a fresh blood orange it was!

Beauty

Oh my gosh, this is just the most mesmerizing, calming piece of art --

Thought of You.

Disturbing

Reports are that 50 women are raped each hour in the Democratic Republic of Congo.

Cali

I love Cali. No, no, not that Cali (been there, done that). I love this CALI.

And once it's all over (in two days!), I will be like this. Sort of, anyway. Maybe I'll be a less crude, more mature, girl version of it. In any event, it's keeping me amused during the studying. I really like the dance moves around 2:10. And, props to Bruno for working "snuggie" into the lyrics. My new goal: work "snuggie" into Evidence final exam.

No fight left

I am having such a hard time just finishing it up. Every day drags on, my studying is ever-more passive, and I'm sleeping (well, trying, anyway) more to avoid studying. It's not that I don't care. Believe me, I care. I care a whole lot whether I pass my last exam. I am even motivated to study. I understand it's my job and that's what should fill my day. I've cleared my schedule more than it has been since my bike trip. It seems I lack focus and, specifically, I just lack the energy to fight hard. The night before my exam a few days ago, I went for a walk and got ice cream. No studying. No dire need to sleep a lot. No extra tabbing or printed outline. No driving to school for silence and assured internet. I just don't have the energy for it anymore.

Back to my three days of studying. The exam is Thursday morning. After that, freedom/anxiety -- until grades come out.
