Meanwhile...Jak-El Turns 6

Yeah, I haven't updated the blog in a while. What have I been up to? Oh, y'know. Stuff. Like celebrating Jak-El's sixth birthday.


Here's the boy.


He requested Bakugan cupcakes, so I did my best. At first, I was really trying. Then I got bored. And he stopped helping so I began improvising.


Here's one for the comic book nerds in the crowd. No one else at the party got it.


He also wanted himself on the cake, along with bear. Yes, I am aware this looks like Mr. Bill. Oh noooooo!

Happy Weekend!

The Phrase That's Sweeping the Nation

Last week, I remarked on Sparkle's blog
that I liked her use of "Magoo" as a verb, as in (I paraphrase, because I'm too lazy to search for the post with the exact wording) "Magooin' around more than usual."

On Sunday, the boys and I went to a birthday party for one of Jak-El's school chums. As Dan-El ran into the path of a child on the swings and miraculously missed being kicked in the head and knocked over, another mom remarked: "Wow. He really Mr. Magooed that one, didn't he?"

To sum up:


Magoo. Love it. Use it.

Drugs Are a Wonderful Thing

Whee! Off to take more medication and find my tiara to wear in honor of Sparkle's birthday!!!


Happy weekend, everyone!
