I hated getting put in timeout when I was a little girl. Then again, I’ve never met a child that enjoys timeouts, so I guess I’m stating the obvious. I just remember loathing it. A five minute timeout seemed like hours. A ten minute timeout was the worst! It was the same way with movies. I’d watch a Disney movie- probably the Lion King- and feel like it took the entire afternoon. Or family road trips. A day or two in the car felt like weeks…
It’s been two Friday’s since my first Friday Fun Facts post. Ummm what?!? I feel like I blinked and all of sudden it’s been two weeks. So much for a five minute timeout. There’s hardly ever enough time in a day anymore! Slightly rehdiculous. That’s right. Rehdiculous. With an accent. Bam.
Anyways. Considering I missed last week’s Fun Facts, I will make up for it by having lots this week :) Brace yourself!
Fact #1: You know it’s cold if you walk outside and your nose hairs freeze when you breath in. And it feels weird.
Fact #2: 94.8% of men write in all caps. (I’m still trying to determine why this is…)
Fact #3: Robert Pattinson is a brilliant actor. (Don’t hate)
Fact #4: Drinking a Peppermint White Mocha = Christmas in your mouth. Try it. I dare you.
Fact #5: Whoever thought of the heated car seat is a genius. So is the person that made it happen. Both geniuses.
Fact #6: Little dogs are much less obedient than big dogs. True story.
Fact #7: Down comforters are so much better than any other type of comforter.
Fact #8: Pandora makes the world go round.
Fact #9: Raspberry makes the best fruit flavored lemonade. Strawberry comes in a close second.
Fact #10: Unpacking after a trip is the worst. (Yes, of course I’ve unpacked my suitcase after getting back to school on monday… Ok. No. I haven’t.)
Fact #11: Nalgene’s rock.
Fact #12: Nail polish is overrated.
Fact #13: My brain is out of facts.
These pictures are from my last documentary project. The assignment was to shoot an organization, and I chose a breakfast restaurant (yeah I just love breakfast) in Deerfield, IL. These were all taken with 35mm TMAX 400 film. Please forgive the quality. They didn’t scan very well…

Pandora rocks, I don’t write in ALL CAPS except when I’m excited or angry, I honestly didn’t know who Robert Pattison was until I clicked your link, and I dunno about finger nails being polished, but I think toe nails, when polished, are really cute. :)
I like your film pictures. They have a very interesting quality to them that makes me wonder … if you took the same picture, side by side, with your digital camera, which would you like more??? Perhaps a worth experiment?
