  • meet husband!!

    after bunches of persuading, husband is getting back on xanga!

    soooooo, go give him a fabulous xanga welcome at amnkydem0n.

    seriously, he’s uber-cool and worth being friends with.

  • totally gratuitous kitty pics.

    enjoy!! (especially samspeeps, who requested even more milo)

    (haha, you can see husband in the background … we’re such nerds!)

    **NEW**

  • can’t. look. away.

    what am i doing on a friday night?

    sitting in the office, surfing between cnn, usatoday and dallasnews; watching larry king’s hurricane coverage; answering husband’s questions about the hurricane and flipping through this.

    knowledge is power, but this may be too much.

    i just want it to get here already. the speculation of what might happen is freaking me out.

    category one by the time it gets to me tomorrow. fun.



    learn more about the category four hurricane that hit galveston in 1900. it is the most devastating hurricane in HISTORY, killing THOUSANDS of people and erasing an entire city.

  • the fatty takeover.

    this is what i came home to:



    you can’t tell, but his fat butt is covering my scanner.



    “i just wanted to color!”



    crazy hoarder.

    i heart my baby boy!

    ** in other news **

    i got gas before i came home. definitely not as bad i thought.

    time to just hunker down to wait out ike. bleh.

  • so this is what “mandatory” looks like …

    yes, all of these were taken today from mandatory evacuation areas. why are you still there?!?

    it is estimated that 37 THOUSAND people may need to be rescued when it’s all said and done.

    galveston and surrounding areas were told they HAD to evacuate (many didn’t); houston was told to hunker down and ride it out … only time will tell if that was the best decision.

    prayers, people.

  • palin on abc news.

    part one of the two-part interview.

    it was interesting to watch her dodge some of the questions … at one point, charles gibson said what we were all thinking: “i got lost in a blizzard of words there. is that a yes?”

    we’re at a fork in the road, and i still don’t like this particular path …

  • should i worry about ike YET?



    be strong, texas. we can get through this.

  • sticky note madness!

    happy friday everyone — enjoy!
