You Gotta Have Art

miles and miles and miles of art…

or at least a couple 6×6 inch tiles!

Mary

I’ve broken out the Mod Podge, stamps, and tissue paper and have been creating. It feels good to get out from behind the camera for awhile and make something with my hands.   ”I cooking.”

Mmm, pudding…

or – Why I’m demanding a DNA test.

Ah yes, I was going to tell you my theory on why I believe Erin was switched with another baby at the hospital. But the proof is in the pudding and a picture is worth a thousand words. Behold:

Domestic Diva
Busy in the kitchen
More coffee Daddy?

She did NOT get that from me! She was all “I cooking” for hours Christmas morning with the sound of those “dancing shoes” clicking on the tiles. I swear I broke out in a rash just watching her!

But maybe these things skip a generation. Because later Christmas evening there was this:

Motherhood is hard

Oh yeah, that’s my girl.

Here Comes a Regular

I went to the grocery store Tuesday morning and stopped by the pharmacy to pick up a prescription for myself and one for Chris. After finishing up with a customer, the pharmacist smiles at me and walks over to the A-B drawer and says “Just one today Dawn?”

damn

Where am I known by name? the camera store? local coffee shop? no. The pharmacy. Well, that just kinda sucks. There was a time when I paid the “regular” price for beers at Paycheck’s. And my “pharmacist” was an old black man named Woody. aah youth…

But I got to relive a little bit of that youth that very same day when I went downtown Tuesday night. I went to a club. I saw a band. I saw X at Harlows! and they were fanfuckintastic! Suddenly all was right with my world again. And as soon as my ears stop ringing and my hip heals, I’ll think about doing it again!

 

Video taken with my cellphone. Sweet. Too bad it doesn’t pick up that thumpin’ bass!

PHP MySQL A 4 Xmas

Wha? Oh no, she’s speaking in tongues again!

According to the Geek-to-English translator, that means: My semester finished the week of Christmas and I received an A in my PHP and MySQL Programming class!

Woot!

That means I am “quite pleased”.

And my gift to my family this Christmas was my decision to not take a Computer Science class next semester. Not because this was a hard class, in fact it was surprisingly easy compared to that evil JavaScript, but I’ve got a couple projects in the hopper that I need to be working on. And yes, those projects will involve PHP and MySQL. It’s all about the if/else statements people!

Chris would say that I’ve finally come over to the dark side. I would tell him to “byte me!”

Next up: Why I think they switched babies on me at the hospital…

Merry Christmas!
