Well... hallo, all.
First, there are a few things you need to see (all of these are safe for work...):

best way to waste my time.
And while you're wandering around YouTube, be sure to check out both the Twilight musical and the Harry Potter musical. If you were a fan or not a fan of either series, the pieces are still hilarious and the people who put all the work in deserve major props. Well done, all.
Second, download this:

Baby Teeth is the EP of a band at Syracuse University called Mouth's Cradle... pretty much the most fun thing I've heard in years. Kevin Hegedus is brilliant and Brandon Linn is solid with beats. All together it sounds great and I can't stop listening to it :)
Third, this is my most recent project.
I made this when I was a senior in high school. It was just a fun "letters" project but my mom really liked it.

(in case you can't tell, it spells laugh)
So I decided to finish the project and do "Live" and "Love" for her for Christmas and her birthday. I'm super excited. This is one of the first Christmases where I'm more excited for what I'm giving than what I'm getting (but potentially more on that later).
Sidenote: for my photog xangans, where do you get your lenses? Prices are killing me, and I recognize that's going to happen my whole life, but I didn't know if there were better places to go...
