A Matrimonial Hayride

Last weekend, these two people got married.

After the wedding, before dinner,
they took some folks on a hayride.
A real hayride, complete with real hay.

Awhhh....

These two smiling faces were there.
Seeeee, other people had fun too.


A guy named Sam showed us around.
He was really rugged and supremely awesome.
Fun times.

Cheeks McGee

On Friday afternoon, I got the saddest/happiest text ever.

"Susia: Guess who lost her lisp overnight?"

First reaction: Yay!!!

Second reaction: Oh... wait....but...already? (tears)

"She" is my neice Cheeks McGee. She is beautiful and smart and tough. Up until Friday morning, she had a lisp.

One of my favorite memories of her lisp was at Christmas just a few years ago. Cheeks was one and a half. She was in her mother's arms in footie pajamas. And she was pointing in the general direction of the family room. Every time she would see an image of Santa Claus, her sweet little baby face would light up as she pointed and exclaimed, "Thanta Clauth! Thanta Clauth!"

Good-bye baby lisp. Aunt Carolyn mitheth you already.

Chronicle of a bad day.

Woke up late. Everything took longer than it should have.Smacked my head HARD. Wrestled with new boots. Bag of ice for the knot on my forehead. Got out the door. Ran back to get phone. Lonely train ride. Work. Boring work. Hours convincing people to agree with me. Talked in circles for hours. Argued (and eventually won). Funny vibes. Way too hot. New boots hurt my toes. Headache from the head smacking. Hungry. Frustrated. Took it out on undeserving friend. Cried.

Harumph.

Coffee break...

I am at work.
I was walking down the hall,
when my skirt fell down.
I am embarassed.
My cheeks are still red.
My stomach is sore from laughing so hard.
The end.

Where did it go?

Seriously, it hasn't been a week since I've posted something! Where is the time going? It's flying by. Way too fast. It's all going too quickly. Seasons change. TV shows come and go. I refer to something as not that long ago and really it was a really really long time ago. In honor of time passing unnoticed, I thought I'd post some fun facts.

Are you even mildly aware that...

- It's been 19 years since the Fresh Prince of Bell Air premiered on network television.
- People born in 1991 can legally purchase tobacco and adult reading material.
- Mary Lou Retton won her gold medal in 1984, 25 years ago.
- Olympic champion Michael Phelps didn't witness Mary Lou's win becuase he was not born until1985.
- Fraggle Rock is "retro".
- Three MC's: Ad-Rock is 42 years old. Mike D is 43 years old. MCA is 45 is years old.
- And, one DJ: Mix Master Mike is a mere 39 years old.
- If Punky Brewster were a real human, she would have had 32 candles on her birthday cake this year.

Sweet.
