So at the last minute, I have been re-routed to Charlotte for the week. I asked Matt if he’d blog all week long in my stead, and he replied with a punch to my ribcage that not only knocked the wind out of me but also made me wonder why, after five years, this is the first I’ve seen of the ribcage punch?

But I don’t want to stand you guys up, NO WAY JOSE! I’m just not that kinda girl. Actually, I totally am, but it’s my guilt complex that stops me from doing that. So this evening I have cranked out 5 great posts for you to nosh on throughout the week. Maybe not so great, but quantity has always been more appealing to me than quality. Reference the 10 guys that I dated before Matt.

Yes, they’re all based around Daily Daguerreotypes because my mom just found a tripod in her basement, and I’m the lucky recipient. I think it used to be my Aunt Lynne’s (thanks, Auntie Lynne!!!) and let me tell you, tripod photography is FUN!

Ok, enough about that and now on to the photo. My sister picked these up for me and sent them in the mail one day because she loves me THAT much. She knows how much I love letterpressed papergoods and the whole world knows (or SHOULD know) how much I love lobsters. So much so that I collected a whole family of stuffed lobsters as a child and named them all L names. The father lobster’s name was Lester because at the time my father would play an Earl Scruggs and Lester Flatt LP over and over again, and I think I had a crush on Lester Flatt’s finger-picking way back then.
