Fight! Fight to the death!
So… I’ve been super MIA from blogging in the past month (or two). You might say I’ve been a little… preoccupied.
Back in August, during the last pool crashing day of the summer, Ashley, Carly and I threw around the idea of starting our own Wichita-focused online magazine. We knew lots of talented writers and photographers. We knew we could design something useful, attractive, fun and well-written.
So… we did.
After months of hard work, putting together an awesome, unstoppable team of writers, designers, photographers and web nerds, we launched verb [ICT] this morning.
As the comments and compliments keep rolling in, I’m sort of in disbelief. We did it. We made something that I am so insanely proud of. Something that is going to make a difference in Wichita’s new media scene. The timing was right and we went for it.
To everyone who has supported us, to everyone who has doubted us, to everyone who has given us their time and energy, thank you. I am so excited to be a part of this and so excited for verb [ICT] to continue to grow and thrive and become a significant part of the local community.
Good things happen while pool crashing.
I wasn’t there for the pool crashing, but I’ve been along for the ride for the past month or so. Check it out, y’all.
We were mountain men.
There’s nothing sexy about wearing a big ass beard. Aaron obviously wears it much better than I do.
Also, real men don’t smile in pictures.
Note to self: it’s really hard to drink beer with a giant, fuzzy beard. Do not attempt again.
My creepy cat centerpiece is totally crashing this photo.
These are the muffies I made for Steph’s party, if anyone is interested. I just used chocolate chips and whole wheat flour instead of suggested items.
These were the best. I had three for breakfast this morning. Thanks, Al!
Cats in Costume ~ Now That’s Nifty
Um…Kitty Madonna? Something’s wrong here…
Haha! Love it. But it’d probably be less creepy without the cone bra.
Happy Halloween/day-before-my-birthday, y’all.
I wore some variation of this outfit all weekend. I was projecting films for the Tallgrass Film Festival. I like the green of the jacket with the bright colors of my new scarf (which I got for 30% off). Made me feel artsy.

- Jacket: Maurice’s
- Hoodie: Old Navy
- Tee shirt: Tallgrass Film Fest
- Corduroys: Target

GPOYW “So…I have this other blog” edition.
As one who’s been privy to Amy’s secret blog for awhile, I say: yay! Also, would you look at those trees! (The girl in the photo’s not too bad either.)
Yes, it’s been awhile. I won’t give excuses, though I do have them.
Mainly, I just wanted to show off this top I got for 50% off at Target yesterday. (Because 50% off is all I can afford lately, even at Target.) I’d had my eye on it forever and I’m glad I found it on sale.


I’m glad I wore a cardigan over it for most of the day, because I just discovered I haven’t yet cut off the tag. Way to go, Steph.
Me: It was “dress like a geek” day today (at the school I worked at).
Luke: That’s kind of offensive!
Me: I know, right?!

Sunday in Wichita (Don’t Spend it in Jail) - Ben Folds
Ben Folds went to Egg Cetera today for breakfast because everything else downtown was closed. And so this song exists now. Awesome. (And such good advice….)
It begins “Sunday in Wichita…everything is closed…”
Instead of hearing this live, I was on a plane. Sad times.
Come back to ICT, Ben! I’ll take you out to the Beacon.
