electric!

From august archive

i went to help with the MRTC walkers again this evening. i was sitting by myself waiting for them to finish and i kept hearing a humming type sound (not really the best description, but the best i can figure out right now). it took me a while to figure out what it was, but finally decided it was because i was sitting under these huge power lines. creepy!

river view

From august archive

we went down to the river again today and were lucky again to see some trains. thought the pic above was a neat view because of the background of the sky and thought the pic below was neat because it was a closer view of the train crossing the bridge on the other side of the river.

button mashing & new orleans style

From august archive

james’ ps3 rca cord wasnt working right so we got a new one today and finally were able to connect to the tv and button mash on super street fighter 4! it was frustrating at first for me because the ps3 controllers have too many buttons! im a nintendo girl…all you need is the up, down, left, right, a and b buttons…all those other buttons are just not necessary!!!!

this evening we went to a katrina anniversary party a lady at work held. she was displaced from new orleans after katrina. her whole family came up for the party and it was so much fun! plus it was great to have louisiana style food made by people who are actually from louisiana!!!

morning surprise

From august archive

was walking down my apt stairs this morning and saw this butterfly land on the steps below. it started with closed wings. as i walked down the stairs and one of the neighborhood cats walked up the stairs, the butterfly opened to show its wings. its not colorful, but still beautiful 🙂

new torture technique

From august archive

went to PT this afternoon and was “lucky” enough have a new torture technique performed on me…e-stim/ultrasound combo. once i got over the weirdness of my muscles moving “on their own” it was really neat

hungry fawn

From august archive

was so excited about getting so close to these hungry little ones today at work! the rest of the pics are here. mostly a whole lot of the same-ish picture, but didnt want to not get the shot in case they moved away as i got closer. even got a pic of one of them in a truly “natural” pose, see if you can figure out which pic im talking about 🙂 lol

different train views

From august archive

james and i went down to the river this evening just to walk around and as luck would have it a train was crossing near by. can you see the train going across the bridge? i know its kinda hard to see, but thought it was an amazing picture 🙂

the one below is of two locomotives up close and personal 🙂 always fun to train watch 🙂

play time

peek-a-boo! spike, like any cat, playing with packing paper. he loves packing paper and plastic…both of my cats like plastic…not sure what that’s all about but i have to be very careful what i leave around or they end up chewing on it.
