Self-portrait late at night in my bathroom, after semi-stumling home from a very raucous and enjoyable Rakes concert.

At 27 years old I am starting to go through the challenges that we all do around this time, figuring out what being an adult means and embracing that brave new world.

The look on my face is one of a girl who has a lot on her mind--what this one came down to is that I hope I NEVER feel too "adult" to indulge in my passion for live music shows. =)

Oh--and if you don't know The Rakes, look them up. I promise that they are really fantastic! :D
