the guru or described as randy for eternity
For most of the first two years that he knew me, my father-in-law pretended not to be able to remember my name.  Of course, I was obligated to return the favor and that is how he picked up the nickname, “Randy.”

bakugan ultimate battle tour
Within a span of about five minutes last week (timeshifted, drafted and queued, actual chronological location unknown), we saw the Bakugan Ultimate Battle Tour caravan and then a plumber with a Mr. Natural mural painted on the back of his truck. I am uncomfortable contemplating what Mr. Natural would do to those Bakugan kids if he was ever left alone with them.

finn will soon be ten
It was a cold, wet day on Sunday, but we entertained ourselves inside with playdates, projects, couch forts, cameras, soup, and grilled cheese sandwiches. Finn took a bunch of pictures of me, and she even let me take one picture of her.

Somebody is using big pink spots to slash lame tags.  It could get out of hand, but for now I am enjoying it.

train ride with finn
We saw a green girl on the train, but she didn’t want us to take her picture even though we asked nicely.  She never actually said no.  She never said anything at all. We saw a mute green girl on the train, but maybe she just didn’t want to talk to us.

burning bridges in the park (cameraphone)
Last fall I burned the remaining corporate swag from my last ten years of employment. Awards, logoed golf shirts, anniversary pins, etc. I get rid of most of that stuff as it arrives or I would have had to head out to the country for a bonfire.
