Mountain with windchime

Moxie,
You’re right. The photo reminds me of the Sandias. I wasn’t always from NJ… did a stint in NM. Boy, do we ever miss the west. Especially when we see shots like today’s.

Oh man, I miss the west. The West is the best.

Awsome pic, those mountians are incredible.

You know the conversation yesterday about it’s not the camera, it’s the person taking the pictures…well, I think it’s also not the dooce effect that makes these pictures great, it’s still the person taking the pictures. I take a ton of pics and found Heather’s explanation of the Dooce Effect and tried it out on a bunch of my photos last night – from faces to landscapes, to objects – and none of mine even came close to comparing to hers.

If you want to try it Bekah, just google “Dooce Effect” and one of the first that pop up is from Heather.

It looks cold…. icy cold.

In addition to categories A, B, and C, there needs to be the following:

D. a request for something

So, today I’m doing D.
I second the motion put forth by Mrs. Stray (#24 at 8:23); we’ve definitely got to see some of these Santas.

By the way, doesn’t checking the photo update feel a bit like checking your stocking for presents during December? or was my family the only one that put little things in stockings on the days during Advent (candy, stickers, simple stuff)? It was always a big thrill to notice the lump or feel something that crackled before we headed off to school. This is a bit how I feel looking for new pics or blog posts. treats!

denver, eh?

hellooooooo jon! (echo echo)

do you think he heard me?

I live in central Illinois – also known as the asshole of the midwest. When we go over a bump in the road my two year old says “whee – a hill!”. It’s so sad. How I long to see something even remotely mountain like. Here we’ve got all the conservative republicanism of Utah, but without the scenery.

Asshole of the Midwest, huh?

I used to live in The Armpit of Massachusetts, which I thought was the best geographical designation ever, until I heard someone refer to Florida as “America’s Wang”

So what’s Utah, I wonder?

The Cabbagey Boobs of The West?

…and again with more cow bell!

I just had to comment to say that NO ONE ever understand when I say ‘span time’ and I love that you do it, too!

— Mom, who gave you that Santa?

Cool pic. always a good one!

i won’t say it. i won’t say it. i won’t say it.

Well, here’s how *I* do it–I watch the Egg Song until the pain goes away…

Oh, and vodka.

PEOPLE!
Stop counting off like schoolgirls lining up for free candy.
“I’m first!”
“Yay, I’m 6th!”
Who gives a rat’s ass?

Here, have a rat’s ass! It’s on me!

This is what I imagine a cold planet Mars might look like.

That’s beautiful.

grinch, i thought you were funny. i’m totally sick of the “whoo, i’m first!” crap. sheryl, i have no issues with road rage, before you ask.

leta’s in double-digits! yay! happy 10 months, oh most coveted and adored child of the blurbodoocery.

Savannah– Oh the irony. Hehe

with regard to single moms – i say it all the time, these women, these remarkable women who parent their kids on their own (and sometimes single dads) inspire a sense of awe and wonder in me because i do not see myself surviving the weekend of single parenthood. there needs to be far greater social regard for parenting in general and especially for the single moms out there.

let’s hear it for the single moms.

Wait. When did you go to Tibet?
