color processors, cats, and cupcakes

the title of the post might sound like a random list but it is what this week has consisted of so far. very simply put...

1. i walked into the photo lab on tuesday as i usually do for work and went straight in to mix chems...however i had to come back out and look around again because something seemed fishy. and there it was...out of the corner of my eye i saw it. a new color processor! and it is seriously so sexy! ha..it's much smaller and cleaner then the old one. long story short this saint of an alumni dropped it off for us without any compensation. how wonderful is he! the sad news is by the time it's set up I may only have a week to print...good news, leigh says i'm always welcome back and asked if i was sticking around for a little cause she would love me to do the artist in residency program :)

2. so on tuesday night i attempted to leave my apartment but was frightened back into it by a crying screaming cat who i thought was going to attack me. another long story short...this cat is now sleeping in my bed. turns out the cat was just hungry and is a super sweetheart. she is very well trained so she obviously came from someones home. she such a lover and even though we put up lost cat signs i'm kind of hoping no one calls because i'm a little attached already. p.s we named her sassy.

3. i spent most of my afternoon today making pumpkin cupcakes with cream cheese frosting and a bit of cinnamon sprinkled on top. i made some for stephens family, my family, and for us to have here. this is kind of silly to say but i feel like such an adult showing up to thanksgiving meal with something to contribute lol.

looking forward to the next couple of days with family and friends!!

happy thanksgiving everyone!!
