This is Jack. This is an old picture of Jack, really. He is my sister and brother-in-law's dog. And sometimes, he is my dog. He is gi-normous! Also, he is one of those beings that cheers me up when I am at my saddest.
I am a mopey-mo. I'm sick again, even though I was just sick, and it stinks. I'm a Stinky McLoserpants, and cannot help but mopey-mo all over the place. Bad fake allergies. Bad back. Bad saddies. It's the worst (except, really, in the scheme of the world, it's not so bad).
In the words of Sean Meagher: "Gar!"
The Play-doh Fun Factory!
Yeah. Carter didn't really care. I guess she forgot about the rainbow t-shirt. She did, however, remember about the "trowing up". She was super cute. Gail and I got to decorate tiaras, while Grandpa and Uncle Joe received pens with feather plumes and heart-shaped sunglasses, respectively.
Also, there was some feather-boa-wearing.
And Pops took us to Friendly's for lunch, where I took what could possibly be the CUTEST PICTURE EVER!
At the end of the day, we played a little play-doh, we saw a little dancing (Cass knows how to cut a rug), and then we went home:
Thank you for your votes. Since Gail and I both received tiaras today, along with feathers, you may picture us waving grateful and graceful waves to you from a balcony with long sparkly dresses.
You like me, you really really like me.

 For you, authenticity and honesty are very important... both in others and yourself. You are grounded and secure. It takes a lot to shake you. People see you as dependable, probably the most dependable person they know. |
It was Colleen's big birthday. We went to El Mariachi.
Tacos+moustaches (moo-sta-shes)+margaritas=SUPERFUN!
This week I was very sick. Well, I guess it was last week actually, seeing as this is now Sunday. So, from Tuesday until yesterday, I didn't really get out of bed. Yesterday I missed a lot of fun things, including the awesome Wii Baby Shower of our forthcoming baby White Chocolate. For that I am very sad.
My lovely sister Flail gave me these tiny parade roses in a tiny little tin. They are quite tiny, and she thinks I did not properly thank her, since I was without fever at the time we talked. So, here's to you, my Sweet Potato! I loveys you and your presents. Always!
Gail and I disagree over what this picture says. She thinks it says "Don't tell, I'm swiping some icing." I think it says "I may vomit." Take from this what you will.
Picture taken at Tatter's wedding.
We went and hung out with Rich, Cass and Carter for T-giving!
Carter and I ran and ran and ran around kicking the leaves. Cass makes SUPERIOR stuffing.
Excellent.
It is born of the earth.
Gail and I were discussing how we still eat it color by color, trying to discern the contrasting flavors (if they exist).
So, Seanie gets Second place.
Second place?
Dude. Let me tell you. This picture is cute. There is no cuter picture on the face of the earth. Not now, not ever.
More eloquent? Maybe.
Sweeter? No way, Jose.
Burnsie's scarf. Looks a little uneven, but that is, in fact, part of it's charm. Actually, it's handspun wool, which is thick and then thin and then thick again. Blech. I no likey. But I didn't pick it out, Burnsie did. So she'll have to live with it.
Well, kids, get your jealous hats on!
I have knit myself a purse! Could it be a knurse? Or a yurse (yarn purse)? I do not know what the name will be, but I do know that it's the cutest darn thing I ever did see.
and I made it.
Take your hats off now. They're making your head sweat.
The top is Seanie, on his first time to Squam Lake. I watched him eat for half an hour, straight. When Bean started to pack up the food, Seanie started to pump his arms and say "Gar!" like a displeased pirate. He got one more cracker. Seanie's favorite thing was to eat--the cheese, the crackers, the lake bottom--it didn't much matter.
Below is Loch, at Squam Lake for the first time a couple of years ago. He was younger than Seanie at the time, so though he did enjoy playing in the water, he pretty much sat and then fell asleep.
One thing in common? Chubby arms.
Shannon wants some pictures of orange things to put in her brand new room in her brand new apartment. So, I get to find things that are orange and take pictures of them. It's been super fun for me.
This may be a gummy orgy, but I perfer to think of them as performing modern dance.
