How do you title a blog entry that describes a day you can barely wrap your brain around?
Yesterday was one of those days.  We started by heading out to the Orlando Science Center with the girls.  I think that it is intended for an audience a tiny bit younger than my girls, but they didn’t [...]

F-F-Friday, On Vacation

I had the presence of mind to remember that it’s Friday.  I’m sorry that I’ve missed the last few F-F-Fridays; I’ve felt a little out of sorts lately, but I think I’m better now.
This was one of the first flower pictures I took on the way in to Univeral Studios Islands of Adventure, and I [...]

Wowie!

Are WE having fun!  Seriously?  We could leave tomorrow and I’d consider it an entirely successful vacation, and we’ve still got three and a half days to go!

2. Have you ever smoked? No.  My parents smoked for the entire time I lived with [...]

Upside the Head with a Sledgehammer

Seriously.  The Universe is NOT subtle.
I was driving to O’Mama’s the morning to pick Punkin’ Pie up after her sleepover with MonkeyFace.  As I’m driving, I got a message – loud, clear, and entirely apropos of nothing – that the lock on the front door needed to be replaced before we leave for vacation tomorrow.

Only in New England

Mr. Chili and I went out for ice cream after dinner. It’s 30 degrees
outside. Mr. Chili ate his with his gloves on, and we ordered a hot
cocoa chaser.
