Sarah Palin’s views and values in NO WAY represent us as American women. We ask that our song ‘Barracuda’ no longer be used to promote her image.

Nom Nom Nom

Freakniece #2 says "nom nom nom" when she’s eating something she likes. We couldn’t catch it naturally, but she was happy to re-enact it for us. Read the rest of this entry »

And a Chill Went Down My Spine

Friday, September 05, 2008 at 07:49am

Last night, we were in bed watching the news. The geekboy nudged me and pointed at Meena. She was lying on the bed, with her full attention on the television…watching John McCain and purring contentedly. It was like the Big Bad was calling his minions home.
I KNEW she was Republican.

Back

Thursday, September 04, 2008 at 09:42am

We’re back from vacation — it was a whirlwind of screaming kids, swimming, wine and beer, junk food, and potential hurricanes. It all worked out, though. Photos and video to come soon.

Happy Anniversary, Geek!

Today is our fourth anniversary. Every year, I share a wedding photo with you all. This is the geekboy making a speech during the reception, but I like it because it looks like he’s singing an aria. And I am off to the side, scratching mosquito bites and drinking wine. Pretty much us.

On Vacation

Wednesday, August 27, 2008 at 06:00am

So, we should be well on our way to Florida by the time you read this. We’ll be gone for a week — first visiting the Geek Mom & Dad, then off to visit FreakSis and her family. I’m quite looking forward to a week where I don’t have to write about crab fishing or snake bites or jamming your hand down a catfish’s throat (stay tuned!). I want sun, I want sleep, I want two little blonde girls fighting over me. Send us some good weather vibes. I’ll blog if I can…you can also follow me on Twitter, if that’s what you’re into.

Dear Mr. Potential Horribly Terrible Hurricane,

Please STAY THE HELL AWAY FROM FLORIDA.

Crawling Out of My Skin

Tuesday, August 26, 2008 at 10:16am

I’m writing an article about snakebite right now and you would not even believe the google images that keep coming up on my screen. OH MY GOD. I wasn’t afraid of snakes before, but I sure as fuck am now.
Chuck, this is all your fault.

Clintons 4 McCain - Bringing The Crazy to Denver

Tuesday, August 26, 2008 at 08:33am

Yes, this is an excellent way to support Hillary. I’m sure she’s pleased as punch. As obnoxious as I find Chris Matthews, props to him for giving these people a center stage to show America that they’re complete crackpots. I do wish that someone would point out to these idiots that Muslim does not equal terrorist.

Find Toto

Monday, August 25, 2008 at 08:55am

While we were visiting with my parents this weekend, they got a call from a company called Find Toto. I’d never heard of them; have you? It’s a service that, if your pet goes missing, will call all your neighbors to alert them. Sort of like an Amber Alert for pets. We checked the website yesterday and were happy to see the missing dog was found. You have to pay for the service, which kind of sucks, but it’s pretty neat. You can also just go on the website and check to see if there are any missing pets in your area.

Pretty Flowers for Your Monday

Monday, August 25, 2008 at 07:59am

On Saturday morning, Lisa and I biked over to a local park. It was perfect bike weather and the ride was lovely. We stopped and had coffee in the picnic area, then continued over to the rose gardens. The rose season is mostly over, but we were surprised at how many were still blooming. Photos after the jump — you can click through to get to larger versions on Flickr.

Joe Biden’s Speech

Sunday, August 24, 2008 at 06:51pm

Ladies and gentlemen, you can’t change America, you can’t change America when you know your first four years as president will look exactly like the last eight years of George Bush’s presidency.
