miniature minor makes major mess

AP
CLINTON, NJ - reports are in of a toddler who discovered a cannister of spackling on the shelf in his home. at this point, details are still unknown, but it appears that the youngster managed to acquire the spackling, open the cannister, and begin spreading all over the floor, himself, etc. realizing that he had made a mess, the troublesome toddler apparantly decided to try and pull a chair to the kitchen sink (covering the chair in spackling) and wash his own hands. it was there at the sink that authorities finally caught him.

"i just wanted to wash my hands of the whole thing," the diminutive dabbler quipped. authorities are not releasing the name of the spackling-spreading son, but have described him as unbearably cute and, while a pain in the butt at times, simply adorable.


in a related story, this image has been sent to the associated press of the mischievous mess-maker. apparantly, the suspect has been photographed watching a recorded image of himself standing in a bucket. authorities are requesting that if you spot this amateur home-repair contracter, please give him a hug and a kiss and see if you can get the spackling out from under his cuticles.

rachel showed me your blog last night. wow. you either get NO sleep or you watch NO tv except the villianous Gators and probably antiques roadshow. I just saw an entry that said your dad just turned 50. you're kidding, right? Now i'll just go hang myself. wish i had time today to checkout more on your blog, but i'll take time over the weekend.

it's getting closer to another gator(puke) buckeye(God's alma mater) matchup i'm going to need you to shoot me with a tranquilizer gun if that happens. call Sandy and tell her to fasten her seat belt.

by the way, love the poem, but too late you are very cool (even by the official standards of the early and mid 70's)

Love in Christ - Juli

PS - thanks for helping Rachel with her paper - the subject makes me cry and want to MAKE God fix it already

i do sleep and i do watch tv (gilmore girls, lost, the office, scrubs, and yankees/steelers/gators games). i have always found that you make time for what you want to make time for...

it would be cool to have another bigtime matchup between the gators and the buckeyes. and even cooler to watch the gators chomp them up again.

billy,

good to hear from you! have you been flying overhead at all? i keep hearing planes as the weather warms up, and i keep thinking you are flying one of them. when are you going to 'drop in' for a visit?

bad haircuts (for a laugh)

everybody needs to laugh.  one good way i have found to make that happen is to do a simple google image search for 'bad haircut.'  when you do so, some of the following gems show up.  thankfully, my 9th grade school picture does NOT show up.  otherwise, it would certianly make this list!  please laugh freely and without inhibition.  thank you and have a nice day.

happiness is dry underwear

we started potty training jack on thursday. we followed a program called POTTY TRAIN IN ONE DAY, which, by the way, i think is kind of crazy. i mean, if someone were to offer you a book called, "ACHIEVE WORLD PEACE IN ONE DAY" i don't think you would take it seriously. and yet here we are, trying to accomplish an equally daunting task in one 24-hour period. it is intense. the day is shrouded in a lie because as soon as your happily diapered child wakes up you tell him that it is a big party. we had balloons and streamers and noisemakers and silly string - all the trappings of a legitimate party. but it is most certainly not a party. it is a hellishly exhausting day. as soon as jack got out of bed, we gave him a present: an anatomically correct doll that wets himself. jack named him quincy. several times quincy successfully peed in the potty and even had an accident or two in his "big boy underwear." he also dropped a deuce that looked and smelled sus...

i'm giving away the swamp

so this is a collage called swamp. i made it in february of last year. it is currently framed in a homemade, hand-painted frame. it is paper collage on a book binding panel. it is 7" x 10". and i am giving it away. i've been wanting to have a blog giveaway for some time, and the time has finally arrived. here's how it works. all you need to do is leave a comment on this post. by leaving a comment you are automatically entered into the contest (as long as your comment offers a way for me to get in touch with you, or you know that i know you). the contest will be open until next wednesday at noon, eastern standard time. at that time the contest will officially be closed and i will pick a random number. the person whose comment matches that number wins! for example, if i happen to pick the number 33, the thirty-third comment will win. oh, and one more rule: you can only post ONCE. if you win, i will send you the collage, signed by me, the artist, free of c...
