I have been super hatery on Lauren Greenfield since I met Rob and had any idea who any photographer was. Now I get it. Barrel of laughs.

A DANCE PARTY UNTIL THE WEE HOURS

AND THIS SONG SUNG OVER AND OVER AT THE TOP OF OUR LUNGS.

OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG

Me: shot so pretty!

Rob: Shot pretty, yes. Kind of seems like a movie that would be referenced in some parody of hollywood, though. THIS CHRISTMAS - NO PLOT - JUST BABIES!

Methinks Rob should write loglines

look what Rob did with his camera (*not* with his photoshop) it is cool. it also make me woozy.

While I’m singing Rob’s praises, I might as well post this amazing video he made on his Mark II. This was at his secluded mountain top home in NH last NYE.

Friends! Golden light! Pretty!

This video will make you want to light a fireplace.

a fellow who may or may not have been my gentleman caller for the better part of the last year happens to be a photographer (remember when my GPOYW pics were fancy?) two of his photo-grad-school besties got married to one another last night. rob describes it as “a wedding of a thousand photographers.” doesn’t that sound like a treat? rob took the firework pic above. nice work. (if you go to his blog you can see more of his work..it’s good and gets better and better every day!)

Discussion of Footwear between Amicable Exes

  1. Rob: ten dollars and free shipping: I'm buying these
  2. www.simpleshoes.com/clearancedetails.aspx?g=null&productid=2193&model=Retire-Texas
  3. Rob: wait a second no I'm not they're SUPER GAY
  4. I'm glad I thought about that for a second.
  5. I am buying the flip flop version, though, only eight bucks
  6. Me: Look, we are no longer in a relationship so I don't give a shit what your shoes are saying about ME.
  7. But do allow me to advise you against it.
  8. You are a grown up, not a frat boy. Don't do it.
  9. (Please also know that I recognize that my former neuroses about your foot apparel was at the same time shallow, ridiculous, and an early indicator that we should not date. God bless.)
  10. (But that still doesn't mean I'm wrong.)
  11. Rob: I bought the flip flops for $7.90, free shipping. Frankly I'm happy to
  12. have another pair of size-15 footwear in my life. Even if I only wear
  13. them while inside the Austin TX city limits, they will pay for
  14. themselves eventually.
  15. And while I knew your footwear neuroses were a little high-tension, I
  16. appreciated them, as it is only through the efforts of women that I
  17. ever look any better than I did the day before. God bless.
  18. Me: Ok, but please understand that a 28 year old man wearing hemp footwear with Texas Longhorns on them is akin to Michael Jackson wearing a Peter Pan tee.
  19. Go forth, and may you garner tons of college tail from these flops. I hope it ends better than Michael.
  20. ...
  21. Me: can I blog this?
  22. Rob: ok but don't blog about me being like Michael in a Peter Pan tee.

You Don’t Know Me - Ben Folds and Regina Spektor


This song is either giving me the giggles or an anxiety attack. But I love it!

Last one for now… driving through New Hampshire So far this summer we have lazily roadtripped around Vermont, New Hampshire, and the Hudson River Valley. We are doing coastal Maine this weekend. Boston in August. And then I’m going to Austin with m.a.d. and Sidecar in September. Then Boston again. Rob has endured many New England antique stores and flea markets. Busy bees.
