Saturday AND Sunday since my Internet was out

I have had the best weekend! I won't indulge on mushy things about how awesome Zach is, but he is. I'll keep with the blog themes.

Saturday-Serendipitous: I think it's awesome how things just work out. There have been a few things this week that fate just works out for me. I am thinking of writing some childrens books, but I need an illustrator. So I asked a girl I work with that is an artist, and she is totally up for it. Also, a guy I know told me he knows a publisher and to let him know when I get my first draft done! How awesome is that? It also happened that Zach and I had our 8 month anniversary on Valentine's Day. I am not a huge Valentine's Day fan just because so many people make it an excuse to love someone, or an obligatory day to show affection. I agree with many people that EVERYDAY should be treated like Valentine's day. Anyhow, Zach and I went on a great date this weekend in honor of our 8 month/Valentines. Funny how that worked out I suppose. Last thing that happened was I hurt my knee this week while running. I ran into a friend of mine who is also a runner today and told him what happened. Just so happens that has happened to him before too. He knew what it most likely was and gave me the remedies. So that was all the serendipitous things that happened to me this week.

For Serene Sunday: There are so many things that bring me peace, but I will try to focus on just one here. Let's see...picking up my camera. There is something that sweeps over me when I touch the old SLR. I like putting a roll of film in and letting it go for a few months. Taking pictures here and there when I see something and then developing it later. It's like a mini-surprise to see the prints. It's neat to stop time with a strip of film. It just feels warm and fuzzy when I have my camera in hand. My dad is the one who sparked my interest in photography so that is a very special link for me. I don't know if I will ever do anything with photography other than have a degree in it, but it will remain a sanctuary of mine forever.
