			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center; ">It&#8217;s Friday! For most people it&#8217;s the start of the weekend and for me it usually feels like the beginning of the work week.<br />
Don&#8217;t feel sorry for me  - I love what I do! I get to hang out with happy people daily and negotiate my own schedule and<br />
take photographs. (My favorite part.) I get to do what I love and that&#8217;s pretty special.<br />
Tomorrow I get to photograph what I know is going to be an epically beautiful prairie wedding. I <em>cannot</em> wait. T minus 16 hrs to go time.</p>
<p style="text-align: center; ">I&#8217;ve been up to my eyeballs in editing and have also been doing a lot of photography and trying to get as much done as possible before New York.<br />
While I was editing I suddenly found myself be-bopping to a re-mixed and re-imagined Nina Simone song. It has beats and grooves and then all of a<br />
sudden I was having a serious dance party in my office chair. Limbs were in the air!  &#8221;Funkier than a Mosquitos Tweeter&#8221; was the song.<br />
Nina is by far, hands down, 100%  my most favorite singer on the planet. Probably because she was my aunts favorite and I&#8217;m inheriting it from her.<br />
I absorbed her appreciation into my own. I am grateful for this. You gotta download this tune and do the chair dance with me people, it feels soooo good.</p>
<p style="text-align: center; "><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-230" title="Picture 4" src="http://blog.rachelboekel.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/Picture-4.jpg" alt="Picture 4" width="572" height="522" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center; ">Today I received a nice email from a blog reader about the <a href="http://www.boldbeautifulbiathlon.com/" target="_blank">Bold Beautiful Biathlon</a> Calendar that <a href="http://adrianmarcouxphotography.squarespace.com/" target="_blank">Adrian Marcoux</a> and I did<br />
for the National Biathlon Team <a href="http://rachelboekelphotography.blogspot.com/2008/10/bold-beautiful-biathlon.html" target="_blank">last year</a>. He pointed me to a recent <a href="http://slam.canoe.ca/Slam/Olympics/2010Vancouver/News/2009/10/23/11500451-sun.html" target="_blank">article</a> written about the girls. I&#8217;m proud of what they do<br />
and so glad that they are still getting so much support.</p>
<p style="text-align: center; ">Sorry &#8211; the calendars are all sold out.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-226" title="kocher_imrie_tandy_keith_crawford_4065" src="http://blog.rachelboekel.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/kocher_imrie_tandy_keith_crawford_4065.jpg" alt="kocher_imrie_tandy_keith_crawford_4065" width="367" height="550" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">In my randomness today I want to talk about this book I am reading and break frequently from to<br />
pass on information I have just read to Geordie.  It goes something like this; &#8220;Geordie, do you know how much <em>corn</em> we consume&#8221;?<br />
Geordie raises his eyebrows &#8220;?&#8221;<br />
Seriously, I&#8217;m stunned. Corn.  The Omnivores Dilemma, by Michael Polan.<br />
My good friend Connie who runs with me most days is probably so so so tiered of me saying &#8220;seriously though&#8230; corn&#8230; who knew!&#8221;<br />
She still shows up. That&#8217;s a good friend! I&#8217;m grateful for that.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">A mixed bag of nuts today. Just thought I&#8217;d share.<br />
I&#8217;ll be back on Monday with our regular programming. Happy Friday. </p>
