Jeff and my anniversary is in a couple weeks. When I got my Bag of Holding, I also got the birthday shirt from ThinkGeek. Their slogan: 13 years of chaotic awesome.

And thus, we find we have a slogan for our anniversary and the coming year. Rock on. :)

I can say that I've been there, done that and have the t-shirt. *grin*

Sam has inherited my mother and my dislike of having "official" pictures taken. Just as Charlie's fine with it, Sam hates it. *SIGH* *Grin*




This is my hands-down favorite.


This is *Very* them.


And they just look so great here. We'll never forget when it was taken, either. *Grin*



They're all here. I can't recommend Picture People highly enough. The photographer was *so* good with the girls. I don't think I could sustain that level of chirpy, but I totally admire her for it. *And* they print the pictures then and there. So we got four sheets and the cd. Very, very pleased. It was a little more than K'mart and a little less than Target.

FINALLY, H'ween costumes are settled. Sam is going as Delirium from Sandman and Charlie is going to be Batgirl Bat Charlie. We need to get the clothes for Sam's and I need to make her some felt fishies. Charlie just needs a long sleeved yellow shirt and black leggings.

She was going to be hundreds of things, but it came down to DJ Lance (of Yo Gabba Gabba fame) or Bat Charlie. The bat won by a cape. :)

I'm also going to do the bags again this year...C's will be yellow (visibility for the win!) with a sparkly Bat log on on one side and a C on the other.

I'm going to let S pick out the felt for hers. I think it'll have a butterfly on one side and a fishie on the other.

Moore told Blomquist that managers "communicated to our workforce that the attendance at the Romney event was mandatory, but no one was forced to attend."

Ah. I see *someone* doesn't know what the word mandatory means.

I feel like I've been saying stuff like this all year, but seriously, how is it already September? Damn.

The Accidental History of the @ symbol.

Sure, it isn't as cool as the ampersand, but it's still a pretty good symbol.

Neil Gaiman won a Hugo for The Doctor's Wife and seems to be writing a new episode.

Squee! The Doctor's Wife is in my top five all time favorite eps.

I could not tell you why I like this Avengers height chart so much. I like it enough to forgive the heals/heels error. But not enough to not mention it.

I should post this, now that the power's back, before it gets any longer.
