WHAT'S IN A SIGN?

THIS MUG SITS ON MY BATHROOM COUNTER AND SERVES AS THE TOOTHBRUSH HOLDER...

COOL TAURUS BODY ART...

BUMPER STICKER HUMOUR

WHILE WAITING IN LINE TO GET AN OIL CHANGE, I NOTICED THIS BUMPER STICKER ON THE CAR AHEAD OF ME...

Milo-Bear would be jealous...

Stole this from Ben...too Funny!

USS Lincoln

This is the transcript of the actual radio conversation of a U.S. Naval ship with Canadian authorities off the coast of Newfoundland.

Canadian: Please divert your course 15 degrees to the south to avoid acollision.

Americans: Recommend you divert your course 15 degrees to the north toavoid a collision.

Canadians: Negative. You will have to divert your course 15 degrees tothe south to avoid a collision.

Americans: This is the captain of a U.S. Navy ship. I say again, divert your course.

Canadians: No. I say again, you divert your course.

Americans: This is the aircraft carrier USS Lincoln, the second largest ship in the United States Atlantic fleet. We are accompanied by three destroyers, three cruisers and numerous support vessels. I demand that you change your course 15 degrees north, I say again, that's one five degrees north, or counter-measures will be undertaken to ensure the safety of this ship.

Canadians: This is a lighthouse. Your call.

Do you remember your first kiss?

So, it's your first kiss and several questions might come to mind:

Is it the right time? Is anyone watching? Does your partner even want to? Is your breath fresh?

And the big question... Should you use some tongue?

Then you lean in and just go for it!

Ah, Merritt!

Next year will be a plan-ahead-and-stay-longer year. Merritt was sweet. Here's the only evidence of attendance...as it should be:

***
Sunburn now looks like a case of Leprosy, post looking like human bubble wrap for a day. I learned my lesson. I wear sunscreen now.

***
I have been bumped. NO longer The Niece!'s favorite person. Bennett is the almighty cousin god that deserves her every devotion...

Auntie: "Where's Auntie?"

The Niece!: (scans the room for cousin god) "Bennett!" (points at him and scampers in his direction as fast as she can avoid eye contact with said Auntie)

Turkey Liver!

Happy 52nd Birthday to Nana!
Happy 21 Months to The Niece!

Day Two Hurts Soooo Much More!

Umm, Ouch x2. That's my story. Advil killed the pain yesterday. Advil AND Tylenol just took the edge off today. I am whining now...

And Matt...despite my insensitivity of yesterday, I'm feeling for you today! We are two people of a different colour...and not the nice brown colour that either of us had hoped for...a nice fire engine red colour that does not look good with chocolate!

Ouch!

Monday morning. I am painfully reminded that I am one of those human beings with a melanin deficiency...also known as Caucasian...nothing like having skin that resembles that of a boiled lobster and the accompanying burning sensation to take the edge off of a sweet weekend!

My Toes at the Beach

I had no hand in the building of this castle. My sister, however, was a lot more willing to get dirty today...which the kiddies appreciated ;-)

Low Tech Thermometer: It's Hot Out!

Left some crayons in the car...ooops!

Gardening: Something I'll Leave to My Mother

I yelled at her, assuming that she was rolling in something foul, turned out she was just loving her bone in the same way that she greets bear poop...

Prettiest Darn Sprinkler I Ever Did See

Plant Growing out of a Log

My Mother's Day Plant from Bennett...when he presented me with the seedling he had planted in a little styrofoam cup at school, I b-lined it for my mom's house, knowing that it would just die if I took it home...I have that effect on plants...turned out to be a good idea, as it is still alive! & has taken over the pot it was placed in...orange flowers below:

Helping out with the construction of Nana's new Veggie Garden

Ooops!

I guess it is time to take it up a notch?

I took a lot of crappy pictures of nothing in particular today...so lolcats it is!

The opposite is true in my case...I am anything but pained when drinking (if you saw Canada day pics...no laughing you!) Damn if that isn't a great caption on this pic...Poor kitty...

Yep, more of that snappage... One of my Favorite Shots from the Weekend...
