13/365 In Your Bag — I stared at both my work bag and my camera bag for quite a while trying to figure out how to get an interesting shot. I finally decided to do something with the bag of Legos I carry with me.

GAH!! Where do I begin?!
It's like the beginning of the Snuggie Commercials only it's with book covers. "Book Covers they slip they slide they're nearly impossible to get a grip on!" I abhor them. Completely abhor them. I always have to take them off and then I forget where I put them. Then, they get bent, ripped, and wrinkled. This too infuriates me. Everything about the darn things just irk me to no end.
I recognize that if I publish a book one day it could possibly be in hard-cover with the book covers, but why would I ever want to put anyone through that kind of misery? I'm not that cruel! No matter what people have been telling you.

I had just started eating some grits after making the kids breakfast, when I dumped a spoonful of grits on my hoodie. I said, "Great! Really? Again!" Noah asked what was the problem. I told him I had already spilled pancake mix on myself. His sage advice (given in a prophetic voice) was:
"Maybe your time has come and your luck has run out."
Thanks, Noah. Give the Mayans my love.

9/365: Daily Routine — Ok, so this is a bit of a punt. I had originally taken some photos I took while I was making dinner, but as I was doing other things, they didn’t turn out as well as I had wanted, so I decided to go with something else I do as part of my daily routine, stopping to smell the roses.
