the theme to this week: tired, annoyed.

*next week i will be not tired and happy. i promise.

january 9th: "seriously?" oh my. crazy day. frustration with converting raw files to jpeg.
january 8th: i am rolling my eyes in this picture. had to go and have my annual gynocologist exam. not fun.
january 7th: this night i fell asleep at 8pm in my work clothes.

jan 4th and jan 5th

january 5th: so this is my new coat i got for christmas from evan. i am kind of addicted to coats. i've discovered i own quite a few, but this one takes the cake. i love it. it's got a fancy collar and skirt and when i wear it i sorta feel like queen elizabeth. this here below is my best impression.

janurary 4th: i am so tired this week. seriously.
