(I do completely agree that a court summons for violating a parks & rec regulation is absurd - a simple "You can't be in here without a kid, go sit over there instead" would have done just fine.)
Jeez, don't get all Movie of the Week. I was just too cheap to buy you a real present.

(I should interject here that in Michigan and in LA, park and playground were interchangeable.Parks were the playgrounds and vice verse.)
NSM anymore. Lots of the parks have fenced in playgrounds. I don't know if there are rules for no-admittance-without-a-kid (and I wouldn't be surprised if there were). I've generally assumed the fencing was designed to pen the kids in.

On a completely other topic, how awesome is this lemon-powered alarm clock???

Going back a bit, I just want to be amazed at the dog-climbing video that Consuela linked. I wonder how it figured that out, or if the owner helped at first?

OMFG, I have to own that!
A friend is picking me up and we're gonna go to the Farmer's Market for a hour or so at 8:30, before it starts to get really hot.
Then I must write to race the wind. Or something.

Wow, that dog can chimney better than I can. Semi-related note, I threw out my old climbing harness last night and the attached belayer's tags. It was 15 years old. Kept the shoes and chalk bag, though.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
The Groupon offer I got this morning was for a place called Cuffs and Collars. How surprised was I to open the email and see a picture of men's dress shirts?? I blame you people.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Why do I want to get boudoir pictures taken? There's a very appealing relevant Groupon today.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Why do I want to get boudoir pictures taken?
Because it's 87% off!

But I wanted the pictures before. In todays climate of photos leaking, plus I have no other to share them with, it's sort of odd. But I am jealous of people who have a good set and I don't. Often have been.
