The Fiery Furnaces - Tropical Iceland

This has nothing really to do with anything...I just wanted to contribute a post.

People of Walmart

Here are the costumes we wore for the halloween party. There was another couple at the party dressed as white trash, but they were the upper-class trash. She had bleach-blond hair and a miniskirt with heels. Dan and I were the west side of the trailer park trash. I had the 3wm shirt and I was prego and smoking. I had tweety bird socks (not as good as taz) and my house arrest anklet. Is it sacrilegious to wear a g-string over your g's? My wig was ugly and I had no make-up. And tattoos. I looked so ugly. Dan suggested that I choose a sexy costume for next year. Which I will never do but I'll try to not be so ugly.

QUICK! Help!

Dan and I have a Halloween party to go to this weekend. Yeah! I love halloween. I had a really good idea for Dan's costume but there's no way i can get it together in time. So i think he'll just wear last year's since nobody at this party saw him last year.

I thought i would dress white trash to match him (not that original, i know). but everything that i think of as white trash is not something i would want to wear--really short cutoffs with my g-string showing with a sports bra/bikini top (basically, britney spears).

dan suggested i browse People of Wal-Mart to get some inspiration. I really like this one. the arrest ankle bracelet would be a nice touch. I also have a 3wm shirt (though have yet to review it). Smoking while prego is trashy. Tattoos. How do i do my hair?

ANY OTHER IDEAS?

Kickin' off the Halloween season, if there is such a thing.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KATIE!

You are incredibly coordinated, efficient, and great at everything you attempt. I also think you make a really cool mother.

spark recipes

I thought this website was kinda cool. You can enter in your recipes and it will give you the nutritional information. This is the nutritional information for my favorite cookies. Whenever I make them I eat approximately 200 in one sitting so I started wondering how many calories they were. So I entered it into this website and Voila'. I now know I have consumed roughly 4,571 calories in the past two hours. Yay me.

Speaking More of Music...

...and Death.

I just got word that one of my favorite uncles passed away this morning. He and my Dad are only a couple of years apart. As I morn I'm listening to the Wilco radio on Pandora. A bunch of really good songs are playing that I haven't heard forever. Remember the Lemonheads, Dire Straits, Pixies...

A few years ago I was hunting with my uncle and dad. My uncle spotted a dear, turned to shot but my dad was blocking his shot, so he yells "duck!". He totally took the shot. There are so many stories, buckets and buckets, of similar situations. Wayne has gone on to be with his beloved wife. She died in a horrible car crash 6 years ago.
The car caught on fire. My uncle had to watch.
I'm really going to miss him.
