Blogging- The New Floor Wax

I've spent an inordinate amount of time online today. What with Jenny in Seattle, my new job not starting until Monday, and, most telling of all- I have a final early next week, I find myself drawn to the computer. Once upon a time, as Jared pointed out, I used to wax floors whenever I had a major paper due or test to take the next day. I guess I have that spark within me of being a procrastinator- not just a procrastinator, but a procrastinator's procrastinator- I mean here I am trying to procrastinate studying for my final by blogging and I find myself procrastinating writing anything substantive and just end up writing about procrastinating instead.

So in the true spirit of procrastination, I am now going to do google picture searches for random things that pop into my mind, and see if anything catches my eye:

Exhibit A. An old woman, apparently a Gypsy, sitting in a small doorway, smoking a cigar. Those are some smashing earings if you ask me. Notice that booze and cigarettes are ready to step in when the cigar runs out. This brings me back to the mission when people like this would call out to us as we walked down the Argentine streets. Their calls were usually accompanied by proclamations of being a prophet interspersed with hiccups.

Which of the three kingdoms do snowmen go to when they melt? If they make a child happy, have they fulfilled the measure of their creation, and thus attain the celestial? I guess he would have to be married to a Mrs. Frosta, or else he'll just be a snow angel. HA!

This picture almost made me cry when I saw it. Then laugh. You can almost see the look of concern on this poor duck's face. I think the duck is one of the funnier animals, along with the llama (oh no, I have llama face!!), and poop flinging chimps. Jenny and I have a friend named Erin (not you, Erin) who goes into contortions whenever she hears the word 'llama'. She just loves the word so much that brings her arms in like a chicken, and starts repeating the word 'llama': "Llaaaaaammmmaaaaa! Llama llama llama llama llaaaaammmmaaa!"

This is a picture of Mars that will be taken by the Mars rover in about 4 years.

It is a little known fact by people not of my immediate family that Jenny and I had brownies instead of a wedding cake at our wedding reception, stacked neatly in wedding cake formation, alongside a bowl full of cartons of milk.

Well, I think that's enough procrastinating for now. It's bed time.
