9346 – 3rd of July

Alan, JC, Denise, Tina, Matt, Chris, Larry – visited briefly by Adam, Joey, Jimmy, Amanda and Adam’s School roommate next year (Mike? – No, Matt!) whose name I forget.

Special Guest was Chae-pooch! 10 year old chihuahua, looks like a little doll, but is feisty!

Fireworks were excellent – not as crowded as we expected.

Lunch at Tina’s was good, despite the lateness – we can be a collective of procrastination… fortunately it is a known variable.

BHK has learned about expelling anal ducts in dogs… her desire for a puppy isn’t as great as it was.. but that only redoubles the want for ducks, llamas and more kitties.

A good time was had by all.

9059 – mon

Several women on the metro look like ninja / secret agents today. Black turtleneck sweaters and slacks, longish hair pulled back into a bun, small briefcase or carry-bag, and occasionally even a pair of Clark Kent style Spex.

How many La Femme Niktas / Diana Prince / Spy Girls are out there in “secret agent garb”?


Even though I don’t eat it, I am still composed mostly of meat. Apparently Gordon Ramsay feels that vegetarians have no palate. I’d like to see some documentation on that. I’d think that most have a very sensitive palate, save for other flavor blockers like booze and smoking.


Dinner out tonight with in-laws, east cafe. They’re pretty good… sauces are a bit sweeter, but I think that I like the way the tofu is prepared more than Panda’s. After, Larry came by and fixed the commodes – no longer running past the flow line. We got a Call from Jimmy – Amanda bought him a PS3 – he’ll be coming over sometime this weekend to play the simpsons game with us, and to see the Wii. I can’t believe he hasn’t been over since august!


We’re hitting the sack early, so a brief one today, dear journal!

8968 – sunday funday!

Still too hot to do much of anything out and about in the Crisco soup-like atmosphere, so we opted to take in lunch at the Sbarro’s in the Annapolis Mall and then hit a movie. Who knows why we woke up at 7:30 on a Sunday, but it gave us a solid head start.

We finally caught the Simpsons Movie on the big screen… I was surprised – it was a lot better than I was expecting… pretty solid TV episode from back when it was funny. We only saw 3 bits that would make it warrant a PG-13 rating – an instance of nudity, a curse word (or two) and some drinking / drug use. I could see them showing all of it after 10pm on network tv unedited, or without those three instances any time at all.

On the way home, we noticed that ATW has changed the sign again, as the search for “the man” continues. (atw is now a tag just for my ease of searching the story thread and pictures, now.)

BHK Birthday Part II: Electric boogaloo!
allisonbdaycake

Party at Tina’s place… Mexican food! Both Meat and veggie protein varieties – Tina’s not a big carnivore, either. Matt (her new boy) seems like a nice enough fellow and I hope they have maximum fun / minimum glum together. He’s certainly more social and generally conversational than DR or W. Dessert was yellow birthday cake with chocolate icing, compared favorably to yesterday’s lemon cake with lemon icing. Added bonus, BHK’s mom didn’t absent-mindedly start slurping the frosting off of the removed candles like last night, rather than giving them to the b’day girl to taste.

Aside from Tina and Matt, Adam, Jimmy, Louise, Chris and Larry all made it to celebrate. We fit pretty comfortably at Tina’s townhouse… I wasn’t sure if we’d all be able to manage, but it worked out quite well.

BHK’s Loot received:

from Louise : Necklace and bracelet of multi-colored pearls.
from Tina : A pair of Peridot Earrings / Hello Kitty purse (which looks like ms. kitty is making a gesture I’m sure wasn’t intentional)
from Larry & Chris – Red Coral necklace and Earrings / and some lovely crockery
from Danny – A swell looking green-stoned ring in gold. (and he got Tina some yellow-stoned earrings, too!)
from my Mom and Wilt – Turquoise and silver necklace, Halloween Snow globe, a little cornucopia and a really lovely card.
from me – a lot of knickknacks – Grease & Grease 2, a pair of pink pseudo-crocks, some stripy socks that mismatch/match, a pink headband with little jolly rogers, bath scrubbie, black cat bowl, a green wire basket, some fuzzy slippers and a gift cert to scalped.

I’m the only person that didn’t get her any jewelry… she told me specifically *not* to get her any. Now, I understand why.

May’ve recruited Adam and Jimmy into a parlor game night. Who knows, maybe they’ll lure Kendall and Amanda into it, too, and we’ll have a big night of it sometime!

I don’t know if Matt is into parlor games… I do know he digs the Redskins and is willing to put up with chick flicks. come to think of it, I don’t know for sure if Tina is interested in boardgames or not… I suspect that she, like the in-laws aren’t really into abstract games. Louise is a good candidate, but is harder to reel in to a date or time than the teens. The last time we saw her was her birthday, about 6 weeks ago.

Poor Danny has students in his classes now – he’s back to running the Sci-fi club, and is incorporating Pirates into the after school program. I should send him a bucket of heroclix or mage knight commons/doubles as a donation. He really liked the Superhero stamps and Lord of the Rings Risk game we shot off to him a little while back.

1 year ago – back from an all too brief visit, nose buttering, bunny suicides, events of the day, liberty city psp homebrew hack, jojo the cannibal kid, maple cookies, folks, met Adam / Future In-laws

8923 – Saturday – Adam’s 18th!

Guests – Adam, Kendall, Jimmy, Adam’s Mom and Step-pop, Mr. King, Mr. Nelson, us. (Joey, Amanda, Sammy, Louise, et al., couldn’t make it for one reason or another.)

Food du jour was good stuff… bhk made a cake with red Swedish fish and blue gummi sharks on it – celebrating little fish in a big pond transition for Adam and Jimmy away from high school, and on to the environs beyond. I got to do my standard grilling of the hot dogs, while BHK made some awesome mac & cheese, baked beans, chips & dip – Instead of ice cream scoops, folks that wanted ’em got Klondike bars of assorted types with the cake. (confetti-style sprinkles inside with a layer of red. I feel a bit bad that I didn’t get many good pictures this go ’round.) My Klondike of choice was strawberry cheesecake… yum.

We were a little disappointed at Mr. Nelson bringing alcohol with under agers in the batch, but aside from that, I think we all had a nice time… got a chance to set of fireworks left over form the 4th, and maybe created a little bit of peacemaking with Adam’s mom. Kendall was the most mature of the kids- even given that she’s going to be a Junior in high school, and everyone else has graduated.

I’m feeling really good lately. Not too creaky, and happy where I am mentally, emotionally, financially and spiritually. All things can improve, of course, but I’m doing AOK.

Sent my letter off to bro, with a pic of BHK and I on honeymoon at South of the Border – I think I’ll include one a letter, just to add 2000 words worth.
Moment of Lyric – America – Lonely People

This is for all the lonely people
Thinking that life has passed them by
Don’t give up until you drink from the silver cup
And ride that highway in the sky

This is for all the single people
Thinking that love has left them dry
Don’t give up until you drink from the silver cup
You never know until you try

Well, I’m on my way
Yes, I’m back to stay
Well, I’m on my way back home (hit it)

This is for all the lonely people
Thinking that life has passed them by
Don’t give up until you drink from the silver cup
And never take you down or never give you up
You never know until you try

8801 – Saturday!

shackshack2
Shacks seen in SOMd while road tripping with BHK.


More karaoke – I came in last, then jimmy and bhk – Tina barely lost to Adam by the narrowest of margins. We played on random… you had to sing whatever song was pulled out of a hat and I got 2 really hard ones in a row… both were songs I’d never heard before or at least was unfamiliar with – one was rap, and the other had a Spanish bit in the middle. For what it’s worth, everyone had some serious challenges. I was impressed that Tina’s singing skill was that well-honed. BHK now wants to get other Karaoke CDs with a broader selection of tunes. We drove around and saw the most ridiculously over-decorated house by one of the many historical graveyards nearby – if I had to seek shelter somewhere, I suspect I’d opt for the graveyard first. Also shown is an example of some abandoned shacks not far from the graves and bunny-fest.

easter wonderland, with graves.


pretty interesting model testing the eternal question of “do you get wetter walking or running to your destination in the rain?”
