Funny thing about black and white. You mix it together and you get gray. And it doesn't matter how much white you try and put back in, you're never gonna get anything but gray.

McCain was a bomber pilot. I guess it doesn't make any difference, but I've seen the "McCain was a fighter pilot" thing a lot, so it bugs me.

Frankly, pilot is even stretching it, given that the one that landed him as a POW was the fifth one he'd driven into the ground.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

yes, it involves me going to an office with 2 forms of ID, my mortgage papers and then getting a bill for 6 years of gas use. I am hopeful that I can work out some sort of payment plan.

OMG, that's crazy. Sorry.

Now my boss has the 101 fever, so I may end up going to a fancy meeting tomorrow instead of her.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I had one of those cakes, Kat! Except my mother painted the doll with browning (which from googling might be a Jamaican product--it's used in cooking to brown stuff). Because that's my mom.

It's hilarious how much Noah looks like you, Kat!

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

ita, it's kinda been one of those weeks for me, so I doubt I could swing batting eyes - I am closer to a women on the verge and will likely laugh like a look and/or cry. But yes, once they see my home ownership started 6 years ago, they will want me to pay up.

I know! Poor baby, right?

Not poor baby! You're both adorable, and I'm sure Noah will grow up to look like a man.

Just call me "Siouxsie Shunshine".

Stupid list. I suspect fraud in Florida and Ohio, ita.

Blaming Florida is ALWAYS a fair assumption.

Buffista photos are made of teh awesomeness! Looking at these has been a total pleasure. Guess I need to scan some of mine and post as well.

Anyone for a revisit of family photo fun over the weekend?

I look more rad than Lutheranism

The *most* amusing picture out of all of them - 1991: [link]

juliana, you were a cheerleader???

Loving the family photos. My sister scanned a bunch of ours, I should find the disc.

PS--How y'all posting them from work?

I came home sick today. So posting them from home.

Me with a strong resemblance to Cindy Lou Who.

I don't mean to be egotistical, but this may be the most darling picture EVER. (My mom says that 5 minutes after the picture was taken, I was climbing a tree. In that dress, veil and all.)

Oh 1985, how you scare me. (Note the attempt at asymmetrical hair and the 2 watches [no, I have NO idea why I thought 2 watches was cool] and the add-a-bead necklace.)
