Smoking Chimpmama!

Hey dudes. Believe it or not, I'm going to update this thing soon. I want to tell you all about my trip to ASU, Halloween, my brother Jason's visit, and all the rest. I'll probably get some of those up tonight or tomorrow.

In the meantime, here's a picture of a chimpanzee with little regard for the effects of second hand smoke.

d'ja ever notice?

What is this thing? I have a blog?

Oh yeah. I do.

Let's make this more interactive. Chicago people, chime in if you feel it. Seriously.

I run into people downtown all the time. I come down to the loop about once or twice a week, and it seems like every single time I do I see someone I know. It's weird.

Sure, there are lots more people downtown, but that means lots more people I know AND lots more people I don't. And yet. Lots of random street convos.

Anybody else notice this? I really want to know.

And yes, this is half interesting observation, and half confirmation that I am still alive and still have my blogger password.

Some Bailey Shots

Amber (my sister-in-law) sent me some great shots of Bailey from her 2nd birthday extravaganza.

I thought I'd share.



She looks thrilled with this gift. My two-year-old niece is a jaded rocker.


She graduated from the crib. Sweet bed, yo.


It breaks your heart, don't it?
