Extinction, According to a Three Year Old

Last week I read to my class a book about dinosaurs. At the end of the book, it talks about how the dinosaurs don't exist anymore. The following conversation occurred:

Me: "So, can anyone tell me what the word 'extinct' means?"
Kid #1: "It means you don't live anymore."
Me: "That's right, good job! Can anyone think of other animals that are extinct."
Kid #2: (raises hand) "Um yes, unicorns."

Funny, I thought I saw one on the highway just yesterday. :)

Things That Make You Go...

"AAAARGH!"

That's the sound I made when I discovered the following lurking under the oven of my (former) apartment:





This, my friends, seems to be years worth of former tenants' useless crap and nastiness. So next time you lose that bouncy ball of yours or your favorite hanger, check under the stove. Odds are it's sitting there, waiting for you to find it.

(P.S. This solidifies my resolve to make the best of this current move. I've checked under the oven. It's all good!)

Guest Blog

Following the wedding, Sir Garrett Gilkey will be commencing a guest blog once a month (or once a week depending on how interesting things get) telling everyone the in's and out's of living with a newlywed couple.

Name of his new posting: The Third Wheel

Wedding in t-minus six days... guest blog soon to follow.

4th Time's A...?

If third time's a charm, fourth time's a b!%$&. Well really, that's how I feel. I am currently moving into my fourth living quarters in the past year:

1. Duffy Street
2. Arbor Lane
3. Apt B8
4. Apt A7

A7 is Dusty's current resident, Garrett's current resident, and me you ask? Homeless. Bumming a bed at my grandparent's house. Boo-yah!

Happy Derby Day!

Hope everyone enjoys this year's derby race! Eat some derby pie, swig a mint julep, and wear a wacky hat!

Tides of Change

So, I get married in two weeks and one day... and counting! I've grown my hair out for what seems like forever for this special event but I'm starting to look for a change. Now, don't worry I'm not getting my hair cut in the next two weeks and one day (boy don't I wish!) but I am starting to look at my options. By this time next month I will have short(er) hair! Here are the options that I'm looking at (and no, i'm not a celebrity stalker):

Any opinions?
