You Bat Your Eyes And I Close Mine

song of the day





aye

Repping For Homie Lil Bub


Hint #15

Who he be, and what he be doin'

Happy Time!



this song should be playing there, constantly

In The Days Of Aquarius


Well, looks like we're gonna make it to February after all. Laura gave it one more go, trying to coax him out at the jump zone, but no dice. A little back pain, but nothing to write home about. Now we just have to hold off for another 12 hours so we can go to Yuula's open house uninterrupted. Nothing like coming into the world with your mother mad at you already. How is it that we barely have two kids and are already experiencing scheduling conflicts?


Oh and Yuula is on skype now, so you all have that nonsense to look forward. Last night I caught my parents watching her eat apples in silence. That can't be what it was intended for, can it?

So Wrap Me Up With Water

Amplification At The Infirmary


Not Everyone Was Happy About This


Hint #14

Now I'm just cutting a cake with a shovel

Done On The Roof



My favorite part: no cellphones taking instagrams

Enjoying Her Final Days As An Only

The Pubs And The Clubs And The Drugs And The Tubs

song of the day





brought to you by the letter 'C'

Fruit Takes Shape


Encouraging her to play with her food. So what. Why be dull? She'd eat it anyway, but might as well make a game where there wasn't a game before, right?


Food artist...

Impostor Monkey Porpoise Ride


Hint #12

If you had no idea up to now, this won't help you any

She's Gone Xtreme


We found a place with bounce houses today, just down the road. Never knew it was there, and apparently neither did anyone else. About 8 kids all together came in during the 3 hours we were there. That's right. I said three hours. Yuula is a maniac. 


Apparently being pregnant makes you good at basketball


And being pregnant makes you deem even the most inappropriate place to sit down and kick back acceptable


I wonder how she plans on getting back up

Trapped We Are Inside This Place

song of the day







it's like a folktronica soft bread sandwich

I Dig Your Tour Jeté

I was reminded of this today...



as if I could ever forget

Can Only Laugh At Such False Starts


Hint #11

I'm gonna fight the good fight...

I'ts The Taandori Talking


 Apparently Laura dreams of Indian food. And upon waking from said curry dreams, she must fulfill the hole left in her belly with as much basmati as she can fit on her plate. So, just like we did on Friday, today we headed out to Scranton after her appointment to knosh on samosas and makhani. But you won't hear me complaining.


In other news, she' 3cm dilated. Seven to go. The midwife used the term "silent birth". I said, "let's hope so". At this point it looks like this guy will not be a January baby, but I say that with a no intelligent basis on fact or academia. It's the tandoori talking.

Hint #10

I think the game has ended
I will push on
Maybe come Monday I will start to get more obvious

Macaroni Murder

Hibernation/Relaxation/Incubation


Another day of hibernation
Another day of relaxation
Another day of incubation
I'm already halfway thru my work week and it's Sunday
Appointment tomorrow to get an update
I've stopped counting down
Kinda hard when you don't know exactly where the countdown ends
Sunday
It snowed

Putting Up With Your Constant Whine

song of the day



reaching back just a little

Red Feathered-Hat And Cloak

So, this happened

and then to take it up the strange scale a notch or two, she strapped on her guitar

and then if that wasn't enough for ya, to achieve maximum weirdness, she sang lullabies to an empty bassinet.

I don't wear it quite as well

But Judee looked stunning

525,575 Minues Didn't Matter

We compiled the whole year of 4 second clips and put them all together. Takes about 25 minutes to get thru the whole thing. But I also did a triple time version that ges by in only 12, so pick your poison or move along.





hehe

Did They Switch Legs Too?

First morning after Sweden changed from driving on the left side to driving on the right, 1967


I understand the confusion of the drivers, but why do the walked seem lost as well?

A Sunny Walk In The Park


Slush And Slurry


On any other occasion, we would stay and snug in our beds, take in a few movies, take a few naps, and eat junkfood. But not today. Yuula had dance class, and if she stands any chance of making lead swan, she can never ever miss one. So we suited up and braved the snow.


None of our roads were plowed. The main roads were not plowed. The dance studio heating system had gone out, but we (just happened to) have space heaters in our van. Kiss asses. 

Then, after, we had a brief stopover to wear the girls down at the combination Taco Bell/Survival Course. It works every time. And good thing, because it took us an hour to get home from there, when it normally takes about 15 minutes.

Slow and steady.

Slush and slurry.

A Tomb For All The Incompatible Cells

song of the day


There's not a second of this song that is not perfect








I gotta say, my playlists are 472,926 for 472,926...

Butter Chicken Better Check In

 Favorite Indian restaurant in the whole Poconos. You really can't miss the place.

 Laura has been craving the New Amber butter chicken for about two weeks now

 Here's the recipe

 This is her inhaling her third plate

 I went for more variety

 At a break in the buffet, Yuula asked Mommy why she's always wearing Daddy's clothes these days. Mommy said "Because yours don't fit me". Clever. Yuula thought she'd see for herself.

 The only bad thing (if there is one) about the rose ice cream at New Amber is it melts wicked fast.

Problem Solved

Lovingly Ordered Implements


Hint #9

I think I may have lost some of you
I get it, I'm making this really hard
So I went and wrote it down for you
Just read it

Even Wartime Waits


There's this place called Buck Hills by us. It's a private resort community, but we break in and coast thru every once in a while. No one seems to mind. Today we got out of the car. Picked a warm and lovely day to do it too. The couple of shots we took happened within the 7 minutes we could withstand the chilly temperature. Maybe we try again in the springtime...

Mesmerizing Hot Squirts

We will watch anything huh?



The page I found this on called this video "mesmerizing".

Not so much.

Free(3[Fri])Day

 Those are beard-cicles, and they are gross
 
 That is a bitchin' sweater, and she wears it like a champ
 
 3°? What 3°?

Found this beauty laying in an empty lot, sooooo, OURS!

That and I sold all my DVDs for $125, cash money, to the record store on Main Street. All but the ones we may actually watch someday that is.
