Vacation Season????? That is one of the big fibs ever told. Who "goes away" for 6-months and calls it "Vacation"? In some circles they call that "doing a stint"
Did Eric get sent up the river? Did I? Not bloody likely. Besides, the records are sealed. So much shit happened, where to start. How about backwards.
1. sweN xoF htiw no dengis nilaP haraS
Yes, I am still obsessed with Miss "Your book made me throw up in my mouth" ex-Gov. of Putin, I mean Alaska. But she's back (thank you Fox News for ensuring that Jon Stewart gets a contract extension), so I am back. and hopefully Eric will be back as well.
2. Jude is addicted to puzzles. Have you ever seen a 2-yr-old do a 100-piece puzzle by himself? I have. Mr. No-Attn.-Span actually has an attention span. who knew? I guess this either means he'll end up in the FBI's Behavioral Analysis Unit or guessing your weight when the carnival rolls through town. either way I'm a proud papa.
3. Scarlett can bloody read. She doesn't think she can, but she can. She says, "Is it reading if I just know the word, instead of sounding it out?" She thinkgs that's "guessing"--I told her that if everyone sounded out every word all of the time, then no one would ever read books (ooops - that's already happening. Can't wait to have my news and literature administered by intervenous drip).
4. Stef is stef - she's a rock, plugging along, fighting the good fight, burning both ends of the candle, working for the love of it (and I am a cliche machine it seems). She has been helping the world one patient at a time (or sometimes in groups) and keeping me in check as well.
5. I still live half my life in one city and half in another. nothing new there. Shameless plug: I've started keeping another blog. It's like a blog mistress I guess (Eric, forgive me for my blog-infidelity). Surprise, another blogger with multiple blogs cloggering up the inter-web. It's basically a place where I can post my inane thoughts (oh wait, that's what this is for). Actually it's more of an outlet for my artictic endeavors (look for some critical pieces posted to it, some poems (print and audio) and I'll be posting saome of my music there soon too. It's called The Novice Is Apprentice. Check it out @ thenoviceisapprentice.wordpress.com
So, yeah, that's a start. I'll leave you with the best Daily Show clip I've seen in awhile. It'll take 6 minutes from your life--but hey, so will those Ziggy cartoons you get sent to your email every day
