Home is behind, the world ahead, |
Nite folks.
Nite!
heheeheee.. now *that* is funny. Funny enough that I think I'll change my tagline to suit.
Niters!
Ugh, now I won't be able to sleep for ages from fear...
Sorry... didn't mean to impart fear... :-) Hopefully, those folk are somewhat few and far between. at least... I hope so.
Ugh, I'd hope so.
Am not going to ask what the trapeze was actually for...
I didn't stick around to find out. :-)
Wise, very wise.
Gah, I need a book to read.
Oookay...
And on that note...I'm off to do a bit of writing before bed. Morning is gonna come awfully early tomorrow. I don't wanna go back to work! *grumble grumble*
At least it's a short week. I have Friday off.
Good night!
What a darlin' picture! I have a precious picture of your children on my fridge as I type! I love it.
Well, you know how grouchy Steve can be about things he don't like...I thought it was best that he fall for the game! LOL!!
That is one gross lookin' toy. My jedis would LOVE it!
I've just finished my cholesterol medicine.
I'm going to bed.
Might as well funkle...
X Boxes are 'cubey' either. Must have been Game Cube. There are lots of fun games for it.
What a perfect gift for a Dwarf kid!
Amen, Master Dwarf. Hair grows, gets cut, gets funny colors, gets cut...
We didn't have to worry about it when the boys were in high school because they were in a Catholic Boys school that had a dress code; suit coat, 'dockers' style pants, no sneakers, tie (though they could wear any kind that wasn't obscene), and hair no longer than the collar. BOTH boys grew their hair long as soon as they graduated. Paul recently cut his when he went interviewing for law firm jobs for the summer. He got one in Boston! David is letting his grow; it's almost to his waist.
Paul graduated high school in '98' and we let him stay home the week that summer while we went to the family reunion because he had a job at that time. He'd seen everyone earlier that summer cause SSQ's Daddy had died, so the family was all together then. We got home from the reunion about 2 am on a Sunday morning, and immediately went to bed, so we didn't see Paul. We rolled out around noon and SSQ was sitting at the kitchen table reading the accumulated mail when he saw out of the corner of his eye, a figure with orange hair come in and say 'Hi', Paul had bleached his almost black hair while we were gone and it was truly ORANGE!! He was teased mercilessly by Clare and Joseph as you can imagine, but the funniest reaction to it was later that day when we went to Mass. We usually sit up front and there was Paul with his 6'2" frame topped by blazing orange. Father Paul processed in with the opening song, went up onto the altar and looked around as he gave his greeting to everyone. He saw Paul and actually did a double take!! LOL! Then he looked at me and kind of raised his eyebrows as if asking, "What do YOU think of that"? I just kind of grinned and shrugged.
Yep, in the grand scheme of things, hair is a nit. Within two years, he'd tired of the color, but decided to grow it long, and now, 6 years later, his hair looks like it did when he was in high school. ;o)
LOL! The incomparable Mr. Barry. His son will be a convenient source of comedy for us for several years.
They're contributing to a totally different 'crack problem'!
