lisah, that's so cool!

If there were comics, hopefully the neighbors I give the paper to at least find them. Too late for me.

Time to grocery shop.

Art Crawl!!!

lisah - what excellent news! Congratulations on future local niece!

Suela - GSD's do have lovely ears. And I agree that a class would be good and doing something like agilty might give her overall more confidence about stuff.

Happy Birthdays!

Nilly, thanks so much for the card!

lisah, congratulations on the impending aunt-hood!

Kat, I can make no promises, but my now-11-year-old niece in Culver City, but I doubt she'll want her American Girl dolls forever and I can tell my sister I know someone who would want them. It's a pretty good collection, although most of the books she has are in Spanish.

Oh, yeah, there's a beginner obedience class that starts on Sep 20, so we'll be doing that. If she likes it, I may try her in some agility, which looks like great fun.

Punishingly Intricate

So of course I got all excited walking through Target yesterday seeing all the awesome cuteness to be bought.

Seriously!!! Also, my younger brother & his wife are expecting a boy at the end of December. It's Harbin Babypalooza!!!

Okay, *real* evocative title: Blood and Chocolate. (The album.)

I was just listening to this the other night! It's one of my favorites of all time.

My evocative title is The Fire Next Time

Have you guys seen the Football Mom Walmart ad? The way it looks, the music it uses? Totally from FNL!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

The other hilarious thing walking through Target with my friend was trying to get her not to buy some TV character battery operated toy for the child of her friends who she described as Waldorf/hippie types. We settled on Lincoln Logs.

Always Anti-fascist!

Nilly, got the card. Thanks. I don't know about the evocative title thing. "Rush Limbaugh is a Big, Fat Idiot?" It totally made me buy the book.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

(But! *Dick*! In a BOX!)

Very evocative. It makes me think of, well, you know, a dick in a box.
