142pm = Hoof-beats on the sill

Right, so, I missed 142pm yesterday due to an acute case of studenteous unconsciousnesity. ( I was napping.) However, I jumped right back on the band wagon today. The only problem I am having is the severe lack of a life I have been experimenting lately. I am usually in the exact same place every afternoon: On campus, in my apt, sitting cross-legged on my bed, cramming homework into my overcrowded brain. So finding something unusual or new or picture worthy is somewhat challenging. Although, I guess that is kind of the point of the whole exercise.
This is what struck my fancy today. It is a horse figurine on my window sill. One of my favorite of all of the ones in my room. It always makes me smile.
I'll post the pick of the pics above and a few more of the ones I captured below.

1:42pm= Fleeting prints

Ok, So I was taking a bit of a walkabout the world wide web and ran across this site through someone by way of another place from here and there. *cough, cough* (Yes that's a shout-out. No, you don't need to know who to.)
The premise is this (quoted from the site)

Have you ever stopped and noted where you are, at the same time every day?
How did you get there? Why are you there? Where will you be tomorrow?
This minute is the one minute of the day to do this.

1:42pm

Take the time to capture a moment of your life every day and share it.

The basic idea is how often do you stop to find something beautiful, interesting or amazing about the place you are in. This project is to remind you to take the time out of your life to try. Once a day. Every day. At exactly the same time. 1:42pm. When you find that something that strikes you, take a picture of it. I'm going to start trying. Should be an interesting exercise.

The footprints is mine for today. And me being me and 1:42 being a full minute long, I of course had more than one. More than a few, actually, but we'll just post the two.

I just created an incredible snack. Slightly odd, but awesome none the less.
I think the original idea came from craving burrito roll-ups. However, not having any tortillas, I improvised. Here's the recipe, such as it is...
Take one slice of real cheddar cheese
Spread it with cream cheese
Place on a thin slice of deli turkey
Lay a leaf of fresh lettuce on top
Cover with another slice of turkey
Tuck in the edges
Eat with fingers or wrap a paper towel around them

I'm completely addicted.
