SISTERS, OUTLAWS, AND OTHER BANDITOS.

One of the most annoying things is being around people who lead well-balanced lives and make common-sense decisions and avoid things like coffee ice cream before bedtime. I try hard to keep my distance from them. Fortunately, one of my favourite people in the states of Washington, Oregon, and Finland is also off-kilter enough to recognize the importance of excess, particularly on a birthday weekend, and manages to casually merge primacy and gracefulness in the same frame (pictured). Wicked Brit wit, kind heart, freeflowing wildflower soul; my awesome sis-in-law(lessness). Happy 29th, or whatever. As Yoda often said: live long and prosper.
