i'd like to take a moment to give a shout out to my main man, peefy.


mike sent me this really awesome email a week ago. i believe he was trying to cheer me up. he is really good at that; one of the best for sure. but i guess that's why we're BFF. these are some texts from this website he found (dont ask how...) of Nigerian love letter text messages:

1)
"When you see d sun shine, dats me smiling at u. When d bird chirps dats me singing softly to your ear. If d clouds should release a few drops those r my tears bcos I'm missing you &when u feel d wind blow, dats my sweet breath whispering I love you. please reply"

2)
"Hello my sweet luvn sugar coated choco mallow milky shaky honey dipped chiz meltin orange juicy mozzarella pepperoni spicy icy friend, how r U? "

and this quote comes straight from south dakota, from my old buddy "abdul alberta" as he would like to be called (my landlord):

"my cooking is OUT of this world! ... i just wish i could bring it into this one!!" (he was the one that spoke about tears being angels expressing what words cannot...)
this is peefy and his beautiful family. they have TWO babies now!! that means i'm an auntie times 2!!! (almost to be three...with my sister in law and brother jorma.!!!!):

for all you impatient readers:

are you sick of ryan and i yet? well, sorry if you are. but you are going to have to deal with it for like, atleast 60 more photos. hah. but maybe i'll try to break it up. yeah yeah yeah, my sister bitches and my brother bitch about how i dont post frequently enough these days. what can i say? there is just too damn much to do when you live in south dakota. who would have thought, eh?? sheesh! life continues to be grand. melinda and jorma (my sister in law and brother STILL haven't had their baby! she's 3 days overdue...i can only imagine how impatient they are, especially mommy mo (melinda)!! and the docs told her she'd be early! yeaouch! so i dedicate this post to her, may you have something to giggle at while you are simply waiting for that little angel love to enter this world...i know we're all excited!! woohoo!! i love you, mommy mo.

this goes in the same chapter as the earlier post. it falls under the chapter "ski masks".  the great technical skillz are all props to ryan lasher. the crazy, dark and twisted scenario ideas are yours truly. OH MY GOSH! WHO WOULD HAVE THOUGHT??? and you dont judge me. and that's why i love you, my two dear readers. 

this one is titled "THE BOUQUET THIEF":









note ry's feet above ^. below is the alternative ending...which do you prefer??

atleast i didn't leave my polaroid camera on the back of ryan's trunk.

R.I.P. my hot pink fisheye camera:
This hill was awesome. the wind was spectacular:
i have been fascinated by this place ever since i moved here to Rapid. it is this printing shop that reminds me of a wonder bread bag. it is the most bizarre place. and i was so eager to shoot ryan in front of it...i had been waiting for a buddy to come so that i could shoot their portrait there:




right after the beesting that ruined my day/week (below)--

it was taking me a while to set up this shot, cos i wanted to be able to see the badlands behind the church and also get ryan well framed...i was taking my time...THEN I GOT STUNG BY A BEE. i proceeded to scream over and over really loud, startling ryan. i hadn't been stung by a bee since i was 5 and found out that i am not allergic to them; my leg swelled up; the bite went from a little bump to being 6" long and 4" wide. it really sucked. i was so distracted by the beesting, that i left my fisheye camera on the trunk of the car and we drove off. we went back and it was gone. i cried:
this house was better than the badlands. we stayed here for about 70 minutes. there was actually a sign that said "home sweet home" in the entrance..and sweet it was:



p.s. in case you are as sad i was to lose my trusty hot pink fisheye, i have since replaced it. but as we all know -- film is never replaceable. boo hiss.

gosh, i really love marky mark. i am NOT lying! i really do!

so i was just going to post this on certain friends' facebook pages...but then i wanted to post it in almost everyone page, so i just thought i'd share it with EVERYONE! YAAAYYY FOR EVERYONE!! WE'RE ALL IN LOVE!! WE'RE ALL BFF'S!!! WOOHOO!!

anyhow, SNL is getting better. or atleast the youtube clips that are worth watching...i have a deep appreciation for marky mark, so watch "barky-bark":
