Day 279: Unexpected Treat

My day did not start off well. I woke up late, got flustered by a snippy email on my blackberry and, since the parking lot was full by the time I arrived at work, had to park on the fifth floor of the garage. Needless to say, by the time I walked in the door, I was not myself. And then one little email turned my morning around. I received an email from my CEO telling me that since he would be out of town for the next few days, he wanted to let me park in his primo front-row parking spot as a thank you for all of my recent hard work!  I was shocked! Such a small gesture, but it meant so much!

Day 193: Summer Storm

Although I didn't set a new record, it was still a late night at the office as I prepare to travel for the rest of the week. As usual, my car was the last one in the parking lot.  Thankfully, I made it to the car before the bottom fell out of the sky. I was very grateful for my big, blue umbrella as I ran a few last-minute errands on my way home.

Day 187: Start Your Engine...

I knocked today's photo out early when I went to leave for work and found that my car battery was dead. My sweet friend Jessie not only came to my rescue with jumper cables, but also suggested that I capture the moment for the blog. I love knowing that I have other people looking at life in terms of what photo I can take next. Anyway, many thanks to Jessie for both the jump and the inspiration!

Day 180: Baby, You Can Drive My Car

I wouldn't say that I'm much of a car enthusiast, but this fantastic old Bentley parked down my street has just been screaming for me to photograph it...  I love all the details.

Day 25: Happy Early Birthday to Me...

Today I got an early birthday present... from the Memphis Police.  Yep, I got a speeding ticket... for going 42 in a 35.  (Seriously?!?)  And you guessed it - my court date is March 12.  How wonderful!  I'll always worried that something would land me at 201 Poplar on my birthday (i.e. excessive celebration), but I never imagined it would be a measly 7-miles-over speeding ticket.  Cheers to me!
