Best CNN Poll EVER

Who would win a debate on world issues between President Bush and Iranian President Ahmadinejad? YUP that's right, Bush is flat out losing! In case you can't see the picture, our fair Bush is running at 38% (or 29,700 votes) and President Ahmadinejad is at 62% of the votes (49,411).

P-A-R-T-Y

Allright, so when you turn thirty (Paula), you realize how wild the party can get. Ok- so all your friends have kids. You have a kid and well, it just ain't that wild. This was a great party and here are the pics for those of you who attended and those of you who didn't (your loss btw... ). You will see the limbs of a dead tree in several pictures, but "Monkeyman" trimmed the entire tree away (guess it was so dead he just lifted it up and it came out of the ground). One picture is of Xander before anyone else came to the party. Apparently it is not that he hates the kiddie pools, he just hates when the other kiddies are in them. Pure joy before other kids, longing looks outside the pool when other kids are there.

Also, an after photo of the unused jello shots in the sink.

new floor

Paula and I laid the floor ourselves. A great savings in money and cost in frustration. Well worth it though.

What were they thinking?

I was just thinking about my... well about my prom night. I took this wine glass off my shelf, because my toddler has been dwindling my stock of wine glasses (something about the delicate stems not holding up to the handle of the broom he is swinging). Anyway...it's hard to see, but there is a label on the wine glass that says "Mardi Gras '90." Yep, that was the year of my senior prom. So really, my question is... WHAT THE HELL WERE THEY DOING GIVING 17 and 18 year olds WINE GLASSES as souvenirs. I am NOT so old that I could legally drink at my prom. As a matter of fact, I was a big enough nerd to have had an alcohol free party after the alcohol free prom. But...sitting here in the dark at age 34, I am drinking red wine (yes... from the box) out of my prom wine glass. Hmm?!
