Gettin' Hitched

Here's to Brian and Heather, who got engaged last night. Brian sprung the question on Heather's 30th birthday. They're obviously thrilled, and we're so excited for them. Now they just have to tell us when the trip to Vegas is, so that they can be married by Elvis.

I told her that your 30s are better than your 20s, but she didn't believe me. Silly girl. ;)

Congratulations to you both! We love you guys!

Some People Just Know Me

I came into the office today to come across a pleasant birthday surprise. I telecommuted yesterday, so that The Boy could take me out for a fancy dinner. My friend Ken came into my office looking guilty, holding a canvas bag. I, of course was suspicious... He reaches in and pulls out a nicely wrapped gift. I open it up to see a Roy, The Toxic Boy squishy doll (pictured at left).

For those of you who don't know, Roy is a character from the Tim Burton book, The Melancholy Death of Oyster Boy: and Other Stories, and contains a poem all about him.

Ken told me that he chose Roy to go along with my office decor... Nightmare Before Christmas, of course! He said that Roy can also protect me from nasty, toxic people, here in the office and elsewhere. Let me tell you, that is something I could use in my life!

The gift came with a card that had pictures of dogs drinking out of toilets on the front of it. I didn't think that Ken was inside my head like he is, but he did a great job. I guess it doesn't hurt that he holds a PhD in Neuroscience from Yale, specializing in psychiatrics.

Thanks, Ken!!

Happy Birthday to Me!!

Yes, today is my birthday. And true to my narcissistic self, I celebrate by presenting pictures of myself as a tyke.

Ahhh... 70s Fashion (who am I kidding? I'd totally wear that jacket today!)

Another Birthday (I think maybe 6?)

Nuggets from the All Mighty Interweb

Some stuff I found recently surfing around:

Apparently, Keith Richards has admitted to mixing the cremated remains of his father with coke and snorting it. Ummm... wtf?? I mean, I'm all for having a close relationship with one's parents, but come on!

A Year Ago Today

Was the one year anniversary of my engagement to The Boy. I can't believe that we've been married almost a whole year already!
