Whee, weekend. I was home sick on friday, slept in till 3, but much better yesterday and today.

On Saturday my husband and I went to the Olbrich gardens yesterday, especially to see the Thai
pavilion that has recently been constructed/opened to the public here in town.







It was amazing!
Pavilion Gallery:more pictures here



I took several more pictures of other flowers and statues around the park, but will have to edit/resize them for another gallery sometime soon. So many pictures though, because I finally, finally was able to pick up a digital camera. So happy. I now am the proud owner of a Canon Elph 330, it’s soo cool. 2mp, and has the same brushed metal bodytype that my aps elph has. I could have gone with more megapixels, but this was one third the cost of the top of the lines, and seems more solid. Plus, I don’t know how much printing I’ll really be doing. Most all of my film pictures were scanned to show up here on Quixotica anyway. Very happy, I picked up a 128mb card, so that means lotsa pics. (I took over 75 the last 2 days, and took around 80 the first couple days I had it too.) So nice to have them all in one place, and not have to wait for developing or scanning.


I was able to hang with Ace and Jess last week too, we went out for dinner on thursday, and then they showed me some Chobits, and .hack anime !!! Both series are way awesome, can’t wait to see more.


Other than that, not a whole lot going on, getting used to my new job, the people, ect. It’s so nice that it’s very close to home.

Also, I’m signed up for a drawing fundamentals class at MATC this fall, still trying to get into the design fundamentals class, or at least another course so I can qualify for part time student. It’s exciting and scary to be following my dream of being an artist. I can’t wait to see how my skills will change and grow. Very cool.


Ok, I’ve been on the computer most of the day, and I think my husband needs to do some free lancing now. Have a great week!
