I Paint My House Red

I like wobbly guitar (pronouced GHEE-taar)


and a little Stars Ep from north th' lakes

Light Confusion



weird-O

Swinging: You're Doing It Wrong

This is what I believe the cool kids call "FAIL" these days.



She finally made it, despite my refusal to lend a helping hand

 But no promise that the swing would go straight...


DOUBLE FAIL!!

Resistentialism

Obsolete Words, Volume 4


- the seemingly spiteful and hostile behavior shown by inanimate objects toward us

Which Color Ya Gonna Walk On?

You Can Wear My Cardigan

songs of the day


I like this album, but this wasn't my favorite song


this embodies all that is right with 90's indie, 120 Minutes embodied lovely mess

One Last Grounder, One Last Fly

I'm a Mets fan, but I;m not necessarily a Yankee hater. I'm indifferent towards them actually. Almost as if they were involved in a different activity, which some seasons, is not far from reality.

But this kind of stuff will get me every time.



Also, this is the most baseball I've watched all year.

With Squirrel

Obsolete Words, Volume 3


- pregnant, with child, circa 1953

Belly, In Fall Colors

Lending A Ride And Some Fries


Went out to Scranton with Suzie on Wednesday to visit Eileen. I think we gave her some peace of mind, or at least some company. Things are stabilized(ing) so the mood was lite. We didn't get in to see Eileen, but hopefully she could hear Yuula giggling from the waiting room. 

Next time.
 

And there will be a next time, because the hospital gift shop is the only place to get this little gem.

Teenage Angst Has Paid Off Well

Nirvana's In Utero, one of the first records I recall blowing my mind, has been re-issued today. So I listened to it, and I was 15 again, and I did air guitar. Don't judge me. Yuula helped. Judge her.

songs of the day

We all know the "hits", but...

best album-opening chord... ever


I hear this song at least once a month for about 20 years


why not?


{sigh}

And You Can Whale That?

putting this aside, filed under future projects

Good Eggs


I've started making some killer eggs lately. Gotta have the feta cheese tho, and Laura can no eat that, so.....

this blog has just achieved a new low..

quick cuteness...

Testing The Tensile Strength

Crisp Air, We'll Be There

 Hoodies and cardigans galore, even Yuula took some photos with her cellphone

These are the favorite nights already

(I think it's a compliment)

Cardigans Survive Hibernation


Broke out the cardigans today and lost another button.

Time for a sew up or time for new cardigans?

They All Look The Same To Me Now

song of the day



I am minimalizing the playlists, too many to sift thru

Under The Tent Inside The Stars


Bringing together gifts, sleeping in her tent, with her stars alight, with her dolphin... happy as a clam

Real Road Ready



I think she's ready for the highway

Would You Like A Wetnap?

this is pretty funny



for a Sunday

So Totally Totally Very Big And Bigger

She's caught on to our home improvement routines

She's under the impression that restaurant booths have tires, and for some reason they're always flat

She's overwhelmed by fresh produce

She's taken to back alley shady surgeries

Pizza is a good cure for peeing on the dance floor

Version 12.0 of how to make grocery shopping more insane

Little Repertory Moviehouse Or Something

song of the day



crap video, but Harvey Danger was great

The Bag Will Find You



apparently it's a process

Consider The Squalor

We considered the squalor we were living in and decided it was time to act. When it started to rain yesterday we locked ourselves inside and, for maybe the 15th time since we've owned the home, we re-worked our bedroom. It was probably the only way we could motivate ourselves to actually clean the place up.

It worked.

 the bed is here

and the office is here.


Flip

Flop

The Sock Bun Survives


Dance class, take two.


We took it up a notch by adding her pink track suit, new dance bag and sock bun.


She showed us her first position. (needs a little work)

Just Take It

I Was Covered By Mace

songs of the day




I listened to two very good, very different albums today, back to back, but it worked.

Back Attitude At The Arbor Mess


Our arbor is out of control...

but so is that back attitude, so

Música Da Lagoa

Weird or Wonderful?



you decide

It's A Line That's Always Running


Tyler and Dylan came up, one to help me do a brake job, the other to run in the backyard and scream. 

Guess which did which. 

Wrong.


Yuula, as usual, was a bad example

This Time With Gusto

nailed it



we should be so lucky

The Brown Death Stinks


The cupboards are low, so the other night I got a little creative, and threw some curry paste, black beans, turmeric, stewed tomatoes, and a few other mystery ingredients (I can't give away my culinary secrets) in with the chicken and Yuula and I ate it up. I called it the Brown Death. It was a little spicy but she scarfed it right down and chased it with some milk. No problem, right?


Fast forward an hour later to storytime, where she tried to gas me out of the place. She thought it was hilarious so.... beans.

Logos I Go For


This dude Max O'Brien redesigned all the NFL team logos, and I gotta say, some of them are way better than the ones they're using now. I will take that Giants logo any day, and the I really like Jets, Browns, and the 49ers too. Classy.

While The Roads Are Open

The weather started to change this week. And fast. It was 34 the other night. The days aren't as bad but, I'm aware that our outdoorsy days are limited. better make the best of it while we're mot under siege.


She did quite well, performing numerous successful K-turns and un-stucking herself with minimal interference. Her biggest issue is that she gets bored with the whole "what where you're going" thing. She can't be bothered really.


We took it all the way around the block and back again.
