la mantina

the weather stinks so much, that we are forcing summer activities in the chill. michael's "mantina" is the perfect spot for fish tacos and beer pong, wooot!

pretend you see kim, she's hiding

the reason for the season, beer, and pong

ha! take that vietnamese coriander

you thought you could trick me by dying, vile plant, all of your brethren withering to a slow and crinkly death. but nay, i have discovered how to make you happy, by sheer perseverance, trial and much error. you like a glass cover, indoors, facing south, in a terra pot with every-other-day waterings. you shall succumb to my will, and my springrolls.

cranberry

recently i went through memorabilia I'd never seen before. nearly all images of me included a pet of some sort; a dog, a deer, a donkey... those made me giggle. reminders of my cat cranberry, however, made me sad. a true blue companion if ever there was one, toted and included, much against his will. he suffered sledding, horse riding, and motorcycles, and of course had to wear doll clothes. a damn good cat, and i miss him.
