Hosty Duo & Friends

Mike Hosty is one of my favorite live performers of all time.  I try to see his show whenever he’s in Stillwater.  He puts on a fun (and funny) show that’s perfect for a night of beer-drinking at the bar.  He played Eskimo Joe’s for the first time on Wednesday night of anniversary week, and it was awesome!  Here’s some photos of the show & some friends I ran into at the bar. Enjoy!

photos from after the May 19 tornado

Stillwater (along with the rest of Oklahoma) was hit by a pretty big storm on May 19. I had planned to go to Jackie and Janelle’s apartment for dinner that night, but once we realized the severity of the storm I made the girls come over to our house (it’s a lot more secure than Campus Park!). There was a tornado on the ground crossing I-35 and coming essentially straight up Highway 51, so Tanner and I decided to move the family to the safety of the OSU Student Union basement. We were certainly not alone; there were hundreds of other families and students there. Luckily, the storm veered to the North on its way in to Stillwater and after an hour or so we felt safe heading home. It was still raining, thundering and even lightening, but the sun was shining brightly as it went down in the West. I thought it was really beautiful, so I took the photos below from my front door. Hope you enjoy!

Some Favorite Things

This week has been a little busy & stressful, and I thought I’d share some of this week’s favorite things that are helping me get through it:

1) Wine.  Dr. Loosen’s Riesling, to be exact.

"Really Loosen's You Up" ahaha

note: I can’t find the original source to credit this photo.

2) This awesome promo for the NBA playoffs.  I’ve been trying to come up with a way to use my “I Am T-Pain” auto-tune app constructively for a while now, and this promo demonstrates how auto-tune can be used for more than just bad rap songs and Gregory Brothers videos.  This promo made me want to watch the playoffs, and I don’t even like the NBA.

3) Feeling all grown-up with this new cookware set I got for my 5 year service award from SCC.  Woot!

note: I can’t find the original source to credit this photo.

4) Knowing that most of my friends and family will be able to make our graduation celebration in two weeks.

5) Free FCP plug-ins and garbage mattes.  I’m having fun figuring out more about mattes.

6) All the flowers that are starting to bloom around my house!

7) My “guilty pleasure” TV shows: House, Glee, and Justified.

8) These great quotes I found via Design Crush.  So incredibly true.

9) Soundboards.  Particularly from The Room and Instant Fun!

10) And the best for last – Tanner and Ein. Enough said!
