Tidbit Tuesday #14

Tuesday’s come and go so fast these days! Here we go, Internet!

My sleeping patterns have been pretty nuts lately. Actually, I’ve been pretty good at getting to bed at a decent, consistent time this semester. But I’ve been waking up a handful of times every night. Do you want to know the strangest part, though? I actually love it. Seriously, if you think about it, why do we all like sleep so much? It’s not like we’re laying there, unconscious, and then consciously thinking, “Man, I LOVE THIS!!” Maybe we don’t like sleep as much as the promise of sleep. (Woah, was that deep or what?!) Waking up in the middle of the night brings me great happiness, as I know I’ll be able to fall asleep a handful of times more. Sometimes I even contemplate setting alarms to go off throughout the night. Am I odd?

Speaking of sleep, WEIRDEST thing happened Sunday night. I woke up (of course) and couldn’t see straight at all! Everything was double. I panicked. “CRAP! My eyes are permanently crossed now!” (Which is seriously one of my greatest fears and has been for forever.) I paced around for a little, looked into two different mirrors, and then splashed water in my eyes, and finally things felt normal again. Not a fun experience, but definitely funny looking back!

Oh, and one more thing… Why do my teeth ALWAYS fall out in my dreams? (Another one of my greatest fears.)

I’m getting so antsy for wedding season, I can’t even tell you! And I don’t just mean my own. :) My upcoming brides are absolutely GORGEOUS, I kid you not. And some pretty different weddings are in store for this summer. LOVE the way my shoot sched is looking!

Artist of the week: Swell Season. Strict Joy is the album. And Low Rising is the song. Check it. And fall in love.

Yesterday was my dad’s 49th birthday! Happy birthday to him! (And not that this has ANY correlation whatsoever.. ;) But when I was little, I used to cry myself to sleep thinking of how my parents would get old and wrinkly one day. My mom eventually figured out that if she gave me a quarter, I’d forget all about it and go to bed already.)

The Facebook fan page has reached some massive proportions lately (for me anyway!). Become a fan by going HERE.

So I recently (as of last week) revamped my website to match the branding of my blog! (Looong overdue!) But now it is complete. I’ve also switched some pages and images up a bit, so be sure to check it out if you’d like!

I use exclamation points too much!!

Now for a little Olympic nostalgia. Ya’ll remember Nagano? And Tara Lipinski? Yeah, she was pretty much my favorite human on the planet when I was 10 years old. I used to pretend to skate backwards and do triple salchows in my bedroom, which was pretty hard considering I had a really thick rug. Sure, the spins would burn the soles of my bare feet, but I was a star, skating along to Celine Dion playing on my mini boom-box, with just one lamp spotlighting me in all my glory! (Come on, I’m a girl. I watch the Olympics for the figure skating!)

I’ll end Tidbit Tuesday with a small peek from Melissa and Dan‘s album design, simply because I failed to blog it before, and it’s pretty. :) If you’re interested in having a custom album assembled, head to the contact tab!

Happy Tuesday!! :)
