This is what I get for posting about good weather: The skies just opened up and it is now alternating between a torrential downpour and a violent hailstorm, with the constant rumble of thunder in the background. I think I’ll hold off on sneaking out to do some planting this afternoon.

Guppy Guppy

Time passes quickly when you’re having fun. Or when you’re bogged down in work and can’t see daylight. Yes, it’s been almost two months since my last post and all I can think of is that I am exhausted. I am also fifteen pounds lighter, but that’s just because I forget to get up sometimes.

Spring may finally be here; it hasn’t snowed in a week now and the weather’s been quite pleasant. Also, things are blooming everywhere. Especially the algae in the pool. What else is new? Well, I am 40, we have chickens and the guppies moved out today. I hope they like their new home outdoors.

  • The Dark Side by Nathan

    My conversion to the Dark Side is complete. I watched my wife go over and scoffed at her, how easily-led she was, how willing to lock herself in to a predetermined path. Then came Vally, showing me the power and ease of using the dark side. I liked my freedom, [...]

  • Vally Took The Summer With Her by Nathan

    I went to sleep last night with the warmth of August and awoke to a cold house and a day of bright skies and bitter winds. That, and the piles of freshly-fallen redwood leaves tells me that summer left with Vally and fall is upon us. Goodbye, summer. Goodbye, Vally. [...]

    the wedding party’s gone and all that remains is an arch, a tent and a billion tiny grains of sandy beach and footprints fading in the wind

  • Big Questions by Nathan

    Saturday is my day for quiet reflection and self-aggrandizing pomposity. Saturday is the day I ask the Big Questions. Why am I here?* Have I led a good life?** Where the hell did I leave my book? Seriously, where is my book?

  • Freaky by Nathan

    This is but one of several heads mounted along the walls of my grandfather’s house. They used to scare the hell out of me when I was younger.

  • Busted by Mutton by Nathan

    Poor Aaron has a love/hate relationship with sheep: He loves the way they taste, but hates the way they always want to trample him into dust. So with that in mind, here is his exciting 2006 Mutton Bustin’ ride. All 5 seconds or so of it.

  • Doom and Gloom by Nathan

    The goldfish is dying. He quit eating on Friday, and has been swimming sideways since Saturday. I can see him gasping, but beyond providing a quick and (hopefully) painless death, have nothing I could do for him. Poor little guy. It would be kinder to end his life now, but [...]

  • Rapture by Nathan

    Okay, twenty more minutes to the Rapture. Have you made arrangements for your pets yet? I think I’m going to sit this one out, thanks. The kids and I have decided that watching Dr. Who is more exciting.

    Okay, I’m hiding this image before it gives my viewer (viewers?) siezures.
