home at last

everything in the past week has been falling into place. i'm moved into the new apartment, which is fabulous. i'm really looking forward to classes starting back up, and going back to work. okay, that's a lie. it's the paycheck i miss, not the job.
if anyone is still plan-free for new year's ever, we are having a cocktail party, 611 innes ne. if nothing else, stop by and say hi!

it's about that time

time flies.
also, this is a stunning display of dutch beaurocracy. (i'm pretty sure i spelled that wrong.) we applied for residency permits as soon as we got here in august. the actual cards finally came in monday. cards that, technically, we are supposed to return before we leave the country. but upon asking the woman from the offices what would happen if we kept them, she laughed and said, "nothing." i said to someone else, "well, hell. i paid 500 euro for this shiny piece of plastic. i'm keeping it."

eurocents

handy trick: if you take the lens off of an SLR and turn it around, it makes a really wicked macro lens.

sketching

i haven't been photographing lately, working on other artistic endeavours instead. practicing drawing faces, it's always been my downfall.
nor have i left the building since sunday. oops. but i did kill the past 3 hours slightly redesigning my webpage. that must count for something.
