We live in an ever eventful world, where events ever happen to persons such as ourselves. These events, ever happening as they are, have happened in an especially ever-eventful way since last I updated such dignified personages as yourselves. In short, I have much to say; in long, re-read the first two sentences five times.The series of events that have made up the last 13 days are these (pictures included to increase your visualization).
Two Sundays ago, my car finally began to look its age. This was not due to my driving, but rather my parking. As notoriously bad as my parking is, this is probably the worst parking job in my infamous history (yes even worse than the five tries during my driving test). I parked in front of barn, harmless enough, or so it was until the barn burnt down. The front of my car is now melted, looking much like an old man with his dentures out. Ironically it still drives the same, even the headlight bulbs work. However, now that my car looks elderly, it decided to act that way and cripple itself the following Saturday by blowing a tire. Alas and forsooth, the wonders of a 13 year old Saturn.
Honestly though, I would almost prefer this happenstance if in some way it allowed Whitney and I to find ourselves where currently we are. House sitting, for pay, at a spanking nice house with netflix, a huge tv, remodeled kitchen, and crazy cute yorky named (don't hold your breath), "Princess Jasmine Topaz" (who i fondly call jazzy, or jozadech). We have made much use of the tv and little of the kitchen as both of us worked five days this week and were sick for each of them. You win some, you lose some, and some you scrape off the floor with a putty knife.
Other notable events this week include: Making home-made salsa (the art is now a pic), finding the absolute best pizza place in all of oklahoma (yes!), going on a Dr. Who binge, and saying goodbye to a dear friend on his way to China. We love and miss each of you regardless of your relation to China, and or putty knives.
You are too funny, Son, and reading this makes me miss you bunches!I can tell you are very tired by how witty and flowery your writing is. So sorry to hear that you and Whitney have been sick all week. Did Papa tell you to take Sudafed and Mucinex to get rid of the fluid in your brain, I mean ears, which might be causing your dizziness(that might help your writing too :-). Love you both and that adorable dog! Your car looks sad, but thankfully it works. Keep up the blogging. Did I tell you lately that you are very talented and I am very proud of you? xoxo
