Picture Dump

Hey everyone, here are some pictures from the past month-and-a-half or so. Most of the drawing pictures are older. I just felt like sharing...

Mom doesn't like having her picture taken.


Snow so deep it buries a picnic table.

I Statements

I love my family, New Hampshire, my wife, and my God. Life is good right now despite the prevailing winds of doubt and disaster swirling about this place. I pray for continued blessings.

I've been drawing a bit recently.

I'm wearing a new hoodie that my Dad sent me for my birthday.

I have been to the gym everyday for the past six days. My goal is to make it there everyday for the rest of the month. I bench-pressed 220lbs twice last night.

I need to start reading some books about having babies. I probably don't just want to try and wing it once the thing gets here.

I will probably eat oatmeal for breakfast tomorrow. Maybe with cinnamon and sugar on top.

I enjoy David Letterman more now than I enjoy Jay Leno. This is a change of tastes for me.

I guess I don't really have a lot to say tonight.

AND...thanks to our brother joseph, we were able to cover the mattress in a rather cute baby sheet!

dead puppies.

my friend kelly just wrote a blog pertaining to a dream she had about pregnancy. she currently isn't pregnant, but if i remember correctly...i am one of 12(!) friends who is expecting a little one!

in regards to dreams, i had my first dream dealing with pregnancy since i have been in baby-carrying-land.

my dream WAS NOT what most would probably considered common. i did not dream about seeing my beautiful little blank for the first time, or experiencing a natural and normal birth, or even just looking down to see a rather large belly.

my dream was about puppies. yep, puppies.

i went into the hospital expecting to give birth to one human being and ended up having two puppies. i don't remember if my dream actually involved me pushing the puppies out of my body, but i do recall the doctor holding them up to show me how cute and healthy they were. (i'll also note, at this point i should have been alarmed...but i was perfectly content...with puppies.)

then my dream shifted and the hospital somehow misplaced one of my pups, leaving me with one pup. i was distraught and deeply saddened.

i woke up...and really, what else can you do but laugh?!

thank god for ultrasounds, or i might be a little worried i have friendly animal growing inside of me! ha!

The cult of celebrity has been bothering me this morning. I guess I just don't get it.

"Beauty is the god of our times and celebrity is our most noble virtue;
the opiate that keeps the zombies blind and in line and hypnotized in worship of the pantheon of sex and shine ... But I refuse to suck at the tit of distraction,
and I refuse to worship the human face." - Ramallah, "Kill a Celebrity"

In other news, I should get back to work. Have a good day, everyone.

Stay Gold!
