which brings me to the futon in a messy, moving-out-moving-in-boxes-strewn-everywhere bedroom at my parents' house in wake forest, N.C., listening to the latest Iron and Wine CD and feeling the artistic urge to write/play piano/tinker with cameras.
Julianne and Emily came to play with me and catch up on life for a week...and it was so wonderful, albeit difficult at times. (apparently when you don't see your best friends for two whole years and then get together again, you are way different than you were the last time you saw each other). Our time together was so blessed, though, and I'm grieving their departure. :( We went to Asheville to play with goats, contra dance at warren wilson, drum at the friday night circle, hike up a mountain and enjoy the view at the top and eat dried berries, and talk talk talk.
pictures are forthcoming.
in the meanwhile, I will be hanging out with my future landlady, discussing the ukraine, where she might be taking me in november to photograph her missionary endeavors. (cross your fingers and say a prayer. this would be awesome!) other pressing concerns include visiting relatives and drinking tea, photographing a kick-ass wedding in hillsborough, and calling the leaders of an indigenous tribe in ecuador to discuss my upcoming documentary in the amazon. Does anyone know the best way to contact them? ehhhh...this will be an adventure. :)
oh, and if anyone wants to hire me next year to do photography, give me a call. seriously. :)
