Just Saying Yes

I thought to myself one day, "why is 'no' my default answer to everything? I need to just start saying yes more." Amazingly, it works - you live life much more fully when you stop thinking that no is always the safest, "best" way to answer.

**Disclaimer: the foregoing statement in no way implies that the judicious use of "no" on certain select occasions is to be avoided**

Halloween in Orlando

Cristina got power back on Saturday, October 29. So what did we do? The only logical thing, of course - drove to Orlando in Phil's brand new Mustang. Once we got there, we met up with Christian and Holly and headed downtown to Church Street to shake off the no power doldrums. Pictures below. Cristina and I stayed with my aunt and uncle and they made us breakfast (chocolate chip pancakes...yum!) in the morning. Then we drove back to Boynton. When we got back to Brian and Phil's, they had power. Everyone was happy. Yay!

A punk comic - is such a thing possible?

I submit to you that it is. This blog will not turn into a stupid links page. But this guy's comic is brilliant. And oh, he has pithy things to say about Hot Topic. I just may give him money.

Nothing Nice to Say

Click on "first" underneath the comic and it will take you back to 2003. Then keep reading. If we melded my reaction with something Sharill and Jason might say, it would sound like this:

"effin' brilliant!"

An email time capsule

Some brilliant, innovative freethinkers at Forbes.com have decided to make an email time capsule. Write yourself an email now, and get it sent to you up to 20 years later. I'm going to do several. Don't just do it, though, read the explanation too.

Islands of Adventure/Universal Studios pictures - part 2

I just realized that in my haste to post the IoA/US pictures, I inadvertently neglected to upload a few pictures that complete the story of the day. So, let me remedy that now.


Me and Cristina at Shrek 4D

Seussland

A whozit, I think

Truffle trees

Because I keep a bag to put my spare leg in...

...and the baby, for that matter

Kathleen and Phil on the merry-go-round

Because I was too cheap to buy the picture of us on Jurassic Park. I got yelled at for taking a picture instead.

Kathleen and Phil again

Kathleen and me - milkshake galore!

Dueling Dragons; I refused to go on this

Me, Cristina, Kathleen and Phil.
1) Cristina and I look like midgets.
2) This was a timed picture.
