Yes...TGIF...

(never meddle in the affairs of well-armed dwarves!)

My cousin finally got round to burning a disk of the pix he took on our FL truip in March (yes, I'm still waiting on the fargin' wedding pix from 12/31). Found this (and traded quality for size):

That should strike fear in the hearts of Ewoks everywhere!

"Look out! it might sit on us!"

And so it begins...the official waitin' up fer the youngun'. I figger I've got plenty of time, so I put in themovies. FOTR just started. We'll see how long it takes me to fall asleep. I'll never see Helms Deep.

Buildin's lookin' good g'nad.

Hair/Ruthy - I didn't go to my prom either. Long story that I still regret. Not so much missin' the prom. But the reason. I'll share it someday over adult entertainment beverages...or Pilon. ;-)
