Am I alone in thinking "red eye" is the most awesome aspect of photography? Why would anyone take it out? |

| For Lia. |

Wow, Lia, you've shed some light on my subconscious. Maybe I'm trippin' about social roles, peer support, and observation of my life by people who's opinion I care about. And fear of failing to measure up. You can't please all of the people all of the time.
You have a gift for dream analysis. A second sight. You nailed it with your example. My successes don't matter to the peanut gallery, only the failures. I take this too hard. |

Dude, I was digging through the diaperwear bag, and this green M&M fell on the floor. Then this kid ran between my legs and pushed the stroller out of the way to get it, and he popped it in his mouth. |

lapig93 has sponsored my night with Leonard Cohen. Thank you so much, dear brother.
I am going to take myself on a date, and get all dressed up sharp. I am so excited. I could jump out of my skin. |

OK. This is not a joke, it's not funny, and it is dire.
I am so poor right now, I can't even pay attention.
Leonard Cohen is coming to town April 3rd 2009, and I don't have a ticket. Unless one of my peeps takes me, I can not go. That would be a tragedy I will never recover from, as he is in his 70s, and it is not likely that I will ever have the chance to see him again. He is my ultimate favorite poet and musician, and I have memories of my mother singing "Suzanne" to me when I was a baby.
It would mean the world to me to see him in person.
This is my 3rd cry for help, and not my final. I will wail and moan and cry until someone decides to take me.
I will be the prettiest date you ever had. I will wear either my 1950s see through lace dress, or my 1930s dragon lady dress (once owned by the famous dancer "Mimi"), your choice. And I will cook for you, make you some jewelry, and a hat. Or make you a another piece of art.
I am seriously begging, and I am desperate. If you love Leonard Cohen as much as I do, then you understand why I have been reduced to begging.
I know the tickets are expensive, but if you are going anyways, what's one more ticket? Really, I will clean your house, and do your chores. I will organize your messy computer.
Let me know your terms.
Love, Amanda |

Do I have any Houston contacts willing to courtier two visas to Dallas in the morning? I pay round trip ticket and owe big favor.
*EDIT*: David found a passport/visa guy (at 10:30 at night) who will make the impossible happen (including dealing with bureaucrats, politicians, professors, clerks, and the evil flight attendent [waitress]). If you need a good passport/visa guy, let me know. |

We're on the road back to San diego from L.A. and listening to a 70s radio station. This one song comes on and David turns down the music saying "some 70s music gives me a migraine". So I'm like "what did you get a spanking while that song was on?", and he's like " no, it's like someone blowing cigarette smoke I'm my face!"
I can't stop laughing |

Here's the truth about the freezer light: you know how the fridge light is on when you open the door? Well, the freezer light is only on when you shut the door! How 'bout that?! |

day two of Disneyland. So far there has been only one meltdown. They tried to measure Zeno for the flying over California ride and he was like a centameter short. Other than that David has been better about balancing time for the whole family and time with me. |
