Karma

How To Tell If You Are Karma’s Bitch:

Step One: Tempt Karma, Fate, the Universe et al.

Example: Forget to go pick up your kid in carpool and don’t realize you’ve forgotten him until he calls you. Immediately rush to the school and pick him up. Feel bad that you lost track of time, but also a little smug that he’s not the last kid to get picked up.

Step Two: Give Karma, Fate, the Universe et al. a chance to retaliate.

Example: The very next day your kid goes on a field trip. Two hours away.

Step Three: [...]

Starting My Countdown

This August will be B’s and my 5th wedding anniversary. It’s special for both of us because it’ll be the longest either of us have ever been married to anyone (we’re both second timers) AND everyone knows that the 5th wedding anniversary is the Vegas Anniversary! I would say this is payback for B “updating” the anniversary presents for our first anniversary gift (the PS3), but this will also be a mutually beneficial anniversary gift. Plus, he’s my favoritest husband, EVER. And I KNOW I’m the best wife he’s ever had.

The Gift That Keeps on Giving

Charlie

Not that kind of gift, you perv! The best Christmas present I’ve gotten in a very long time has been my new DSLR camera. And it’s kind of like the gift that keeps on giving in that I keep getting things for it. Last night, my MIL gifted me with a new lens. She got me the EF 50mm F/1.8 II. I’ve been playing with it all morning and I really get why it’s so popular.

Here are some of my favorite shots so far.

I still have LOADS to learn about white balance and capturing [...]

In Which B Makes Me Laugh

Meme

That’s what significant others are for, right? Entertainment. And also bringing me coffee. I love that I have a partner with a great sense of humor. In the immortal words of Jessica Rabbit: He makes me laugh.

On Watching TV

I am constantly  being accused of “sucking him into a show.” What can I say? I have good taste. And he may complain about watching Ghost Whisperer, but I know he has a crush on Jennifer Love Hewitt‘s boobs. Plus, he doesn’t leave the room. I like watching Ion Channel because they’ll play 2 episodes of a show back to [...]

Pegasus Reborn

Pegasus Hat Front

BAD Boy is learning about Greek mythology in school and next week is Greek Week. And on this coming Friday, he has to wear a costume. They drew costume choices out of a hat. His costume? Pegasus.

That’s right. PEGASUS.

In case you were wondering, the only pegasus costumes you can buy are for babies and/or sluts.

So we improvised. We ordered some angel wings from Costume Express. And I made him this hat.
