So we didn't make the home page (lame) but we're practically famous for being so geeky.

The Abduction of the Sabine Women
I am currently enrolled in a course entitled "Saints Signs and Symbols: Reading Medieval and Renaissance Art"
So I'm writing a course paper about the classical story of the abduction of the Sabine women. And how that story has been politicized in modern art.
Here are the paintings I'm looking at:
(Primarily the first three, and just drawing a little comparison from the last two)
So yeah. I'm learning lots about Picasso. The paper is more interesting than I thought it would be, but at the same time I feel like I'm probably kind of butchering it with a deluge of quotes and facts. We'll see....

It's on Repeat
This group came to play for a benefit concert at my university, and they are my new jam. Seriously.
My roommate and I have them on repeat, ALL THE TIME.
The Hunts. (A family of seven kids.) They're on iTunes. You should buy their album.

They also have awesome covers. Just sayin'.

Baby Baby Baby
So my boss has a baby.
I think she's almost five months old?
But she's come to work meetings a few times, and tonight my boss had this little girl with him when he stopped by for a minute to see how things were going and sometimes...
I will catch this little baby just staring at me and smiling.
It kind of makes my day.
It makes me feel like THE coolest person, really.
I just want to grow up to be a baby whisperer. It's official.

Siblings Day!
I changed my Facebook profile picture to match Rebekah's in honor of National Siblings Day.
Happy National Siblings Day!
I know, my head is tilted the wrong direction.
But getting this photo was SO MUCH WORK that there was no way I was about to try again to fix it.
No one was home, my camera was dead...
So I had to wait around for my battery to charge enough to be functional, and then use the 10-second timer. And keep the camera balanced on a desk, angled correctly... there were some bloopers.

Happy National Siblings Day!
P.S. I'm only aware of the holiday because of my Facebook newsfeed. Honestly.
