And now I will ramble once again




Just found the phone in the fridge. Yep.



Did you know that dragonfly larvae travel by anal jet propulsion? Yep. They fart through the water. How awesome is THAT? One of my fave science facts I thought I'd share with you. I tried to find a picture of it for you but alas the sphincter of a small aquatic invertebrate is either hard to capture on film or there is no demand for it. I can hardly imagine that there is no demand.






I have professed my love of Mr. Rogers already in a post. Since then, Caroline and I have made it a part of our routine when we aren't painting the town red. 10:30 on PBS right after Teletubbies ( which I love and think is absolute genius and only wish was more acceptable for adults to watch by themselves and squeal in delight by themselves). Today, Mr. Roger's phone rang. It was that crazy sideburned mailman, Mr. McNeely, calling and the conversation went like this:



" Hello?"



" Oh, just singin' and shellin' peas."



" Egg rolls and Eva Kwon? She's at the market?"



"We'll be right there."






You can only imagine my excitement at that phone call. Is there purer bliss than singin' and shellin' peas? I think not.






Charlane sent me this pic today.


It's an Egpytian statue circa 2 A.D. . Look like anyone??? I'd like to think that was the first appearance of The King. He gyrated back to us in the 20th century and I would like to believe that he will come a third time, bringing peace and harmony to the masses. A hunka, hunka, hunka burnin' love for each of us.



We were watching the news today and they announced that Safeco stadium would have peanut free zones at two of their baseball games in August. I got real fired up. Perhaps you think I am an activist for the peanut allergy laden. Perhaps you think I thought it was really ridiculous and went on a tirade about it. Either thought is a bit embarassing. Anyways, afterwards, Bing said " you gonna blog about it?" Hahaha.



Caroline is very sleepy today. I can really feel her little bottom tooth poking out. She continues to love deep voice singing. Bing has taken to singing " Ol Man River" & " Swing Low, Sweet Chariot" to her in his deepest voice. She gets beside herself. It is so cute. Apparently, deep voices are also very, very loud according to Bing. I can only imagine what the neighbors think about us. Haha.

We three idiots of Washington are.

I am guessing that Steve doesn't get the need to blog. Eric seems to be continuously embarrassed by the things I put on it. He will live. Did you find something that worked for Caroline's teething? Other than the tooth popping through that is!
