    Hey nice to see you both. I like this picture, though that first one is a really good one too. Minneapolis is a great city. I've been there many times for buisness. I know exactly where that falls is. A little further down is the bridge that collapsed last year. Idril I bet your blonde hair fit in very well with all the scandinvian people there.

    You both look lovely! Congratulations on meeting up,that is so cool!
    I declare after all there is no enjoyment like reading! How much sooner one tires of anything than of a book! When I have a house of my own, I shall be miserable if I have not an excellent library.

    You really need to thank Riesa, she was the one that had to be convinced.

    We had a really great time, it's a great city and we had great company.

    Oh yeah, but that's no different from where I live, blondes are definitely the majority up here in "north country". It wasn't until I moved to Boston that I realized that wasn't the case everywhere. What once made me a part of the crowd, set me a part and it took some getting used to, not the fact that I was no longer in the majority anymore, just that other people were constantly commenting on the color of my hair...I just never could see what the big deal was.

    I am lazy, so I'm not going to post the same pictures twice, but here is a link to the blog post where they are:

    Minneapolis is a well kept secret. They have the world-class http://www.artsmia.org/
    the amazing http://www.guthrietheater.org/ and so, so much more. I arrived there thinking.."oh, it's a nice little town, probably only needs a weekend to see it." and left feeling deprived that I had only discovered it's shell. Fabulous, fabulous town....at least in the SUMMER!

    as for meeting Idril, it was as just as she said, like old friends catching up. I arrived nervous, but it took only moments for the odd 'internet' nebulousless to gain form and solidify our friendship into one I have no doubts will be lifelong.

    My only regret now is that we can't now zip out for a pint at the "Local" http://www.the-local.com/home.html.

    so my dear friend, where to next? There is only the world left.

    That really was a great place. Mallory and I have decided that has to be a regular stop whenever I go there and we also decided that we would have to have a drink to you every time we go. Speaking of Mal do you realize that we didn't get one picture of the 3 of us? You, me and Mallory? That's almost criminal.

    so my dear friend, where to next? There is only the world left.
    Vegas, Baby! And maybe you'll be able to get the tattoo then.

    Great pictures, everyone!

    Idril and Riesa got to meet? Woot!! Niamh and I might have, if I had made arrangements in advance (but I didn't know that I was going to wind up in Dublin!!) -- Next time, Niamh!!

    was looking through my camp photos etc. and thought these ones show my personality quite well.


    I couldn't hula hoop very well


    I dove after the hoop I lost and ended up on the floor. Again.


    Tried (unsuccessfully) to spin the hoop on my leg


    So I tried to spin them on my arm!!

    I used to love the hula hoop when I was little. Not sure if I can do it now.

    I tried... I really did . I think I was just so aware that I was being judged by a group of girls that hate me... Otherwise I'd have tried harder

    I do miss being able to hula hoop properly though

    I love the background Sprinks. I think I stopped hula hooping by the time I was in high school
