I really want to come out and see such a great show! And I want to meet you for reals...it's weird when you know someone but you don't know them face-to-face. Dani and I met face to face and we had a great time. She swears I am totally the same in-person as I am online. Don't know if that's a selling feature.

You are the same but better in person (and of course better still now you have a pooch :)

I wish we lived closer to each other. (I just went through and read an old post you wrote & thought, yep, Rachel gets it....I'll spare you the snarky comment you responded to, but thank you for it long after the fact...)

What a wonderful experience!!!!! Cassie of Synthetic Shadows was such a pleasure to shoot with. She's cool as hell with a fabulous sense of humor and is sooo amazing at getting you comfortable.
