good times, good times

it's naptime for one child, and break time for another. it's only 10am and i feel like we've had a full day already. am i the only one that feels like this? i guess when the day starts at 5:30am, and i fumble to my coffee pot, beseeching it to make it all right...i suppose that when 10am rolls around, it already has kinda been a day.

so what to do but make some corn muffins and plop my fanny down on the couch for a little break? because we've got lots on our agenda for later today, including me getting a tooth drilled and bonded without novocaine, and doing a little collage action, thanks to mindspiration.

yesterday we found ourselves at the bread and roses festival, along with some of our favorite people. we ate some crazy food, and then all played on a blanket, listening to folk songs and spoken word. then there were wagon rides and colorful costumes. and dirty feet. can't forget the dirty feet. the perfect day, i say.



in other news, gray's quote of the morning was:

"hey! i just tooted...in spanish".

even the farts are bilingual here, i guess.

on other, other news, here's a reminder that all parties must come to an end, usually ending in blood and tears:


keep the good times comin', universe.

YAY! Comments are back on! For keeps? Grace is hillarious - what a comedian! I also love your t shirts on cafepress - I may just have to pull a few ducats together and get one. I'm sorry I haven't e-mailed in a while but I always read your blog. Glad to see you're doing well. BTW- my fellow pumpkin lover, did you know there is a pumpkin flavored beer? It's called Harvest Moon - not too strongly flavored but just enough so that you think of autumn. Take care! XO
