can it be?!

Sun Apr 24, 2005, 8:38 PM
it has been a great many days since i updated this journal.  or since i updated anything online, really.  ive been trying to focus more on whats going on in my life.  and even so, there are a great many of my friends who ive neglected.  (`liquify, ~speaker, and `musicinmyhead immediately jump to mind!)  i dont really draw much anymore - except for designs to execute in metalsmithing - which is going quite wonderfully, and i couldnt have chosen a better major.


school has quieted down enough that right now, im able to openly offer commissions, so please email me ( meredith @ black-elephant . com ) if youre interested.

i hope everyone is doing well, and is happy, healthy and in a continual search for improvement!
life is pleasant.   these beautiful spring days in texas wont last long.  im continually taking advantage of the good weather with a happy heart and open eyes.

i will marry a cowboy.

howdy there fellow texan! ive only seen a few of us on line, and here I read down and see so many at once! :giggle: Had to butt in.

weather gets so nutty this time of year! its was so nice and warm this morning, i put on my flowy new skirt. but when i get outa class its suddenly it 15 degrees cooler and the wind is blowing so hard im forced into a very bad impression of marilyn monroe!! lol

its true what they say, "if you dont like the weather in texas, wait 5 mins"

*will be emailing about a comish if thats ok!*
good weather and good week!

The springs in Texas don't last long, and the summers last forever. It kinda sucks that I'll be home for the hottest part of the year, but I'll get to see everyone I missed AND my sister's getting married! So it's all good.

I'm from Abilene, do you know where that is?

hahah abilene. actually there are some good camping grounds out there, and ive been trying to get people to go out there with me.
"its in the middle of no where, reds. were not going."

youre not TOO far west of us! im sure yalls summers are way hotter, though.

you know what area of texas is absolutely GORGEOUS? the hill country - near san antonio. if youve never been.. oh my gosh. its like youre not even in texas. its so crazy.

Abilene is SO not in the middle of nowhere lol! You want nowhere go to Sweetwater or Buffalo Gap! One of my favorites spots to go camping is at Hordes Creek Lake in Coleman, especially in like September when it's almost fall but not quite...it's icky lake water and kinda smells like dead fish but I love it. ^_^

Ya know what's really crazy? Everyone thinks Texas is so flat and treeless, but there's a stretch between here and St Louis MO that is flatter than anything I've ever seen- almost 75 miles without any hills and almost no trees. THATS crazy. And everyone thinks all Texans are cowboys or divas w/ big hair...so not true. It's like they can't understand that Texas doesnt automatically make you a redneck. They were amazed that I don't have an accent at all.

And someone actually asked me, dead serious, if I live on a ranch. O_o

hahah ive had that happen a lot. i went to san diego for the comic-con last summer... and when id say i was from texas... hahaha well, im sure you know what thats like. but im sure it didnt help that ive gained so many of those southern sayings (ex: as happy as two dead pigs in the sun.. type of sayings) and they are heavy in my vocabulary ... so people just assumed that id left my cowboy boots at home. hahahah with some people, i have to admit, i did lay it on thick and run with it. southern belle accent and all. :devilish:

i do have to say though.... i like trucks. and cowboys. and i like the southern accent when an old lady has it. ;D
