No sooner had I finished my last class when I needed to pack up and drive north to my mom’s house for the wedding of one of my best friends for the past 20+ years.

(I don’t know if anyone’s noticed, but I finally broke down and bought a “real” camera last month — a Nikon D40 digital SLR — and I just love it so much.)

And now, I’m back home again and suddenly, it’s almost summer! It’s only 60 degrees today but still!
