So, in Oklahoma there’s a train museum; part of the centennial celebrations or something, but now it’s the sort of place you “take your kids for their 2nd birthday”:http://katality.com/augusts-2nd-birthday-a-vintage-train-party/. I was hungover as hell, so I sort of wandred off, as I do… Lots of interesting shapes and textures. Small museums have this quirkyness about them that’s super endearing. There’s at least one person that cares enough about trains to devote their life to preserving them. The museum itself is a work of art, an arrangement of forms and objects to convey a message. Really cool. Also Maeghan was there.

Tim and Katie got hitched the day after I proposed to Sophie, and I was privileged to be their witness, along with Soph (natch). They’re having a real ceremony eventually, plus there’s my wedding, plus I know several other people getting hitched. It’s the thing to do now. <div class=”center”> <img src=’https://images.matt.pictures/the_first_of_several_weddings/593/0001.jpg’ /> </div>

A couple of random images, because I don’t ever stop looking, not really. <div class=”center”> <img src=’https://images.matt.pictures/random_again/594/0001.jpg’ /> <img src=’https://images.matt.pictures/random_again/594/0002.jpg’ /> </div>

So, we left the venue only to find that two of the cars in our party were towed. On a sunday. From the lot of an office that was closed. Some people just hate fun. So that’s why the first pic below is people standing around in a parking lot. Then there were drinks at Saint’s, cards against humanity, and more drinks. <div class=”center”> <img src=’https://images.matt.pictures/in_which_things_are_complicated/595/0001.jpg’ /> <img src=’https://images.matt.pictures/in_which_things_are_complicated/595/0002.jpg’ /> <img src=’https://images.matt.pictures/in_which_things_are_complicated/595/0003.jpg’ /> <img src=’https://images.matt.pictures/in_which_things_are_complicated/595/0004.jpg’ /> </div>

I can’t talk about “that thing that happened today”:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2013_Boston_Marathon_bombings. I wasn’t there, don’t know anything other than what I’ve heard, and even though it’s from real news sources, it’s still not terribly reliable. I can give my condolences to the families, and tell you that my thoughts are with them, however little that means. What I would like to do, instead, is put a little good out into the world. So here: a very fun morning several months ago. This is the Gospel Brunch at the Boom, where two queens make fun of the audience and we all laugh at ourselves. Not pictured: me up on stage, “although that did happen”:http://photounrelated.com/2013/03/17/the-boom.html (that’s Sophia’s blog, of course). <div class=”center”> <img src=’https://images.matt.pictures/gospel_brunch_part_one/596/0001.jpg’ /> <img src=’https://images.matt.pictures/gospel_brunch_part_one/596/0002.jpg’ /> <img src=’https://images.matt.pictures/gospel_brunch_part_one/596/0003.jpg’ /> <img src=’https://images.matt.pictures/gospel_brunch_part_one/596/0004.jpg’ /> <img src=’https://images.matt.pictures/gospel_brunch_part_one/596/0005.jpg’ /> <img src=’https://images.matt.pictures/gospel_brunch_part_one/596/0006.jpg’ /> </div>
