Vacation, all I ever wanted

Ignoring all feelings of pointlessness aside, I'll persist in updating here for the moment.

March was all about the vaca--as in vacashun, not a Spanish speaking cow. The fam, meaning Maya, Jeremy and I, went to Mexico for a lovely nine days and had a fabulous time. Nevermind the fact that the six weeks preceeding our arrival in sunny, warm ( Read more... )

What fun, dude! Sounds like a wonderful trip. That's great that you got to see your family and have Maya meet them.

I'm thinkin I'd really like the idea of eating a big meal at 3p.m and then another little something later in the night. That sounds like a great plan. Maybe I should adopt it.

I love you, too, Bon. The child will have to do with riding around in my ford taurus station wagon (aka: the mechanical bull). Woo! for fuddy duddys!

Is the youngling talking now?

Yup. She's a regular motor mouth, repeating all the bad words that come out of mama's mouth. The other day she was walking around saying, "Fucking cats!" after I got pissed that the neighbor cats had sprayed out door. Nice. She's a charmer, just like me.

So, a family vacation with cute baby pictures...And you thought that *I* was a settled-down fuddy duddy when I was 28! Hehe. But seriously, good to see the grandparents are in good spirits, despite the diabetes issues with your grandfather. Your grandma doesn't look like she's aged a day in however long since I've seen her.

Oh yeah, well there's really no escaping fuddy duddyism once there's a kid in the picture. I won't be doing much in the way of rocking a radical lifestyle until Maya starts school. Luckily, I'll still be a spry young thing at that point. Besides 40 is the new 30, right?
