Go nuts people, crazy, crazy. Bigger version of map, here. Hi Res, and more detailed here. The discussion is here. Really good stuff people.

Forbidden Fruit

Wednesday, March 29th, 2006

Rhen has a lot of toys that hold his attention anywhere from 0 to 45 seconds. When I need a little time for myself and the DVDs aren't working, we go off in search of "Forbidden Fruit", an item that isn't intended as a toy. Ideally, the item can't be ...

Jack and Diane

Thursday, March 23rd, 2006

Is it just me? I think Jack and Locke are like, the bitchiest married couple ever on television. Lost pretty much ruled, but I'd have to say the previews for next week's episode kicked the shit out of tonight's show. Anytime hatches start going fully automated and locking down I'm hooked. ...

"Watching you perform is like watching a bunch of puppies play." C_ and I cackled at Cowell's comment to American Idol contestant, Kevin Covais. He is a doughy rosey-cheeked boy of 16 who looks more like 10. He sang an old timey love ballad. It was really sweet. We repeated ...

Rhen Approaches One Year

Monday, March 6th, 2006

In a week's time Rhen will be one year old. I'd like to say that it went by so quickly but it didn't--that's not to say it wasn't the most enjoyable and challenging year I've experienced, it's just that life is simply more plodding and tedious. No seriously, changing a ...
