I could pass for 21 when I was 16 or 17 or so. But I don't drink, and I turn 21 in a month, so meh.  :)

why go to the US to drink?

They're pussies when it comes to drinking.  Ever had any of their beer?  Flavoured water, I'm telling ya.

Go to Ireland or any hispanic country for some real drinking!

Whatever, I'll drink whomever you find under the table.  Just because I live in the US doesn't mean I drink Budweiser.  Around where I live we have some local breweries that brew 12% and higher ABV beer.

And yes, your daughter is really astonishingly beautiful. Not surprising, given the way genetics works.  :D

aw!  Thank you!  I think Lexi is adorable too.   ;D 8)  She will be turning 2 in about a week and a half. 
This one is more recent of her...the day after her little sister was born.  As you can see, she doesn't know what to think of the red-faced thing making all the ruckus.   :D


ok.  sorry.  I'll stop.  What is it with mothers that they can't stop showing their children off?  I don't even want to know how bad I'll be when I have grandkids! scary.

so, you just had a baby!  congratuations!  keep playing the piano when you can.  don't make it a high priority right now though.  in a few months you'll be back at it.  my husband used to watch the kids every other night after work - so i could practice.  he never really knew if i went to practice or walked around the side of the house and drank a beer.  but, i normally practiced at the local uni which was quiet.  it kept me sane and happy.  babies are a lot of work!

if, on that day, it really was 35.098 kelvin, that would have been -238.052 degrees celsius -> you would have been an iceblock.

it is impossible to mow the lawn with ice on it.

believe it or not, i once made my husband a calendar after buying a bunch of swimsuits on sale in january.  but, after looking at it - i realized i should have waited for summer as i was too white.  being from alaska, i never understood how one got a tan - until about 4 summers into marriage.  #1 don't put any form of sunblock on.  #2 put cocoa butter all over yourself so you can't even touchthe doorknobs of your house to get out (open the door ahead of time).  #3 don't be bothered if you look like greased lightening...go sit under the sun from 10 to 12  or 3 to 5.  let the lotion go into the skin and keep pouring it on. 

a friend of mine here that freqents the ymca stopped putting on sunblock and is now just getting a little tinge of tan.  i asked her -what did you do?  she said the same.  she puts on sunblock 4 or the lowest possible sunblock and then a load of this dark tanning lotion.

koji said 35,098 kelvin, which would make that day extremely hot.

Thank you!  Yes, Treya was born  3-1/2 months ago.  I wish I could say that she and Alexis have a great appreciation for my playing, but one of them will tend to start feeling ignored after too much practice and starts fussing (ok, so maybe the practicing is hard on the ears  :P). 
And hey--nothing wrong with grabbing a beer and vegging while the man tries to cope with the kiddies!  My main thing lately has been getting him to watch them so I can go running or blading...if I don't get my exercise I get grumpy!   :D

yes.  pianowolfi,  that is me.  i have a sort of look of shock because she was my third child and it was only 11 minutes in delivery.  i even walked up the stairs.  as soon as i got there, they said 'oop.  she's in labor.'  then, i had an ambulance gurney to the delivery room where she came in 11 minutes.  (because i'd been in labor before, i tried to ignore as much pain as possible at home - but this time it wasn't bad and i didn't even know i had serious labor).  my husband apologized profusely for making me walk up the stairs.  i told him it probably  helped delivery.  anyhow,  who's going to carry a pregnant woman up stairs (i know, elevator).

glad that everything is going well with your new family, klicker.  never give away the crib.  that's what i learned (or the other stuff).  don't want to buy it all over again.  we were so sure we were only having two children.  we had a boy and a girl - so it was like - this is a complete family.  but, now - i can't imagine not having a second girl.  lots of girlie stuff.  she's the only one that cries a lot though.  she might be a little spoiled.  but, she laughs a lot too. 

we bought her a new barbie with dog to walk.  the moment it was opened she was in awe that the dog actually pooped after you fed it - and that it came with a pooper scooper.  yuk.  if i'd have known that.  we just thought the dog was cute.  you laugh a lot with kids.  if it weren't for them, i'd have never gone in toys-r-us. 

why do i go on like this.  well, because it was hot out there.  just went for a bike ride (agreed about exercise and mood) but it was so hot i came back in a worse mood.  i started blaming everyone for taking my keys - but they were in my pocket after all.  heat can give you alzheimers.  now, my hubby wants to go bicycling again.  i said, give me five minutes on the computer.  (he's probably asleep by now and i'll get 1/2 an hour).

It's nice to see a house that has real stones.  So often now we have so much faux decorating.  Seems like designers are in Operation: Fake It mode, while real stuff is Mission: Impossible (or just way out of budget).

I thought that both Nanabush and Lau were girls...


I think that when I still used my old name some people also thought I was a girl. Though this may have been somewhere else.


Anyway, there is no reason for males to have masculine names. Just as they don't have to limit themselves to masculine posts or even personalities. I mean, I don't act like the average male.

I guess that in the society where I live males have a bit more room deriving from the stereotype than females.

but- he's also a chef

those look very cool!  you've grown skinnier and taller don juan.  remember the pic of you near your mom.  you're probably a lot taller than her now, right.   my brother kept growing till he was like 24.

he used to also live in prescott.  the canyon is so amazing.  must be hot this summer, though.  all the wildfires they used to have kinda made my brother move back to alaska.  they lived at the edge of a national forest in prescott before moving.
