Soo...it is now coming close to 10pm Thursday...and I still haven't slept yet. Crazy, yes, I know. Especially when you consider that this is actually the 2nd time this week that I've done this--gone all day w/o sleeping that is--but at least the other day I napped for 3 hours! Last nite I sooo regretted knowing that *if* I went to sleep, I would sleep through a beautiful day, and I just really did not want that to happen. So, I took action.
I decided I would stay awake, all thru the pre-dawn hours, right thru the morning, into the afternoon, and that I would even go out and spend a few hours in the sunshine and warm air before the sun set. And that's just what I did. Brad Frank called me on his way home from school and we decided to venture to a park in Washington called Mingo. We hiked for 2 hours--1 hour on a path and 1 hour creating our own path thru the woods. We discovered ruined foundations to some old house, some nice yellow and black bird feathers, a really deep well with no cover(!) hidden in the middle of the woods, and some nice fish in a creek. We also jogged up a hill. After we were sufficiently achey and winded, we decided to call it a day.
As we were driving home, Brad popped in some random cd, and I commented that it reminded me of Django Reinhardt. Turns out it was him! Who knew Brad was a fan??! haha I then asked Brad if he'd ever watched "Sweet and Lowdown" (a movie I have been *craving* recently!)--he hadn't, so we decided to come back here and watch it. However, we then got distracted by another beautiful spot and we just had to stop the car. It was this really pretty lake/pond sorta close to my house, but I never knew it existed! It actually is very near to where Naked Bob's house is/was!!! Strange. So, yeah, we never watched "Sweet and Lowdown", but soon...yes, soon.
Anyways, since my last post was ugly, I will now post some beauty to balance things out. "Beauty" as defined by me tonite are some black and whites wherein I compare Brad Yoder (yep, that top one is him) to Ralph Fiennes (bottom, of course). I see some similarities...anyone else agree? Admittedly I could have posted a better picture of Yoder, one where he's actually posing very similar to Ralph and you can see both of their faces, but the problem was it was too small and I like how these two are the same size. Whatever...I haven't slept in yeeears!!!

Fine.
And now it is most *definately* time for bed...it's 10:03pm...this may just be the best sleep of my life.

I do see the similarity.
