could this be then end?!

well for the year at least.

so we are making a super awesome cubano sandwich for our last dnd episode of the year. awesome how? like try adding bacon awesome. pork loin + ham + bacon = trifecta! no doubt that will help me with some infernally awesome rolling for Exaybachay. it's possible we might try remote gaming next sunday depending on availability, fatigue level, etc.

um, what else. have to work on getting heidi's etsy shop back up and running. hairpins and gnomes and such.

oh and so as not to give you the impression that as a 13 year old i only had awesome taste in music, i was also really into this song (and video):



and it was this version, not the fancy 'cool' video they did after they got famous. not that i care or anything. :)

proceeding as if there were no lapse

hey look! i'm ticking off the first item on my punchlist for the day: 'blog'. that was easy.

what is next? 'flickr'. ok... not as easy as one would think. that means editing and uploading two months of images. but then again not that difficult. it just takes a little time and a little effort.

then we have 'etsy'. that entails documenting some of the recent critters by the missus, getting them up on her etsy store. also not that difficult, just time and energy.

this is followed by 'cards'. this one is entirely dependent on the fickle printer. what could this possible entail, you ask? hah! printing power cards for heidi's lvl 7 wizard Lumiere. or wait... are we lvl 8. i can't remember.

and finally, we have 'dickerdoodles'. fortunately heidi is taking care of the baking aspect of this, and then it's up to me to photograph them and submit them for the contest. bwah hahaaaah! we shall be victorious i tell you!

and now i shall leave you kind readers with a couple of choice videos. this first one is a song that always makes me happy to hear it:



and finally, an addendum to my 'early crush' blog entry... ladies and gentlemen, i give you Canada's finest:

oh right

i have a blog. i keep forgetting

omg omg omg

can not wait!!!

Textual Fun

just passing time, in an ominous manner:

will shaves beard, hilarity ensues

yes. once again i grew a beard for heidi's birthday. this time, rather than shave it all off, i decided, 'what the hell...' and did a google for vintage beard styles, et voila... the 'franz-josef'. slightly more groomed than the 'friendly mutton chop'. i initially thought this would be a grave error, but you know what? i kinda like it. looks like i should be tending bar in a late 19th century saloon or something. for those of you who were unable to view The Beard in it's entirety, observe:



exciting, isn't it.

and now for a master-stroke of digression. for whatever reason, i've been feeling slightly nostalgic, which i am not generally wont to do and am of the belief that nostalgia is a disease (look toward the future!). nostalgic for what? adolescent crushes. cast your mind back to when you were, oh say... fourteen. you know, back in the early 80s. ok, it wasn't really all that awesome. but i present to you my top 3 adolescent crushes (with a bonus selection):


chrissie


annabella


clare!

and this one you'll have to visit yourself.

bwahahaaaa. ok, i'm done being nostalgic.

those of you who enjoy our pictures will be pleased to know that 2 whole new sets have been uploaded with at least 2 more on the way. enjoy!

fun in the sun

feasts and such
