When the nice lady on the boat offers to take your picture, don’t assume she’s paying any attention to details like backlighting.
On the other hand, this kind of fabulous light forgives all kinds of skin blemishes and double chins
on second thought, the lighting was perfect

Most days, the fact that Mr. H and I go to different schools with different schedules is not an issue. This week has been a different story. As I mentioned earlier, Mr. H graduated from UW on Saturday which has had him in party mode since he turned in his final paper on Friday. I, on the other hand, still have finals and papers due this week.
The party/not to party debate has been raging for the past five days.
Aside from the fact that I still have a serious amount of studying and writing to do, there is also the fact that Mr. H is a good five years younger than me and much less of a lightweight when it comes to partying.
Don’t get me wrong, I love a good party. It’s just so much easier to enjoy when I’m not stressing out about whether or not I will be able get my #$%& together and finish this quarter with adequate grades.
Obviously I lost that battle, because this is just one quarter for me and its Graduation for him. The last, and coolest, party we attended this weekend was on Sunday night and it was thrown by one of the students in Mr. H’s Persian program.
Those students in the Persian Studies program know how to throw a party.
I’ve been busy this week.
I have one final final and I’m done for the quarter. Then I can breath, sleep, party…
Today was a big day.
A very big day.
As with most very big days, it involved a lot of waiting.
And people herded like animals into areas where they can do some more waiting.
There were some important people, like Quincy Jones and Bill Gates.
There were speeches.
And more speeches.
And more speeches.
And then there was more waiting in line (Mr. H is in the beard and sunglasses)
There were hands raised in celebration
And there was a memento/documentation.
Today Mr. H graduated from the University of Washington with a Bachelor of Arts, Near Eastern Languages and Civilizations, Persian.
I am so blessed and proud to be this man’s wife.
