Just got around to uploading pics of J's bite-sized chihuahua, Oreo.

She always looks kinda freaked out. Here's Oreo hangin' out in her homemade bed.

When her owner isn't around, she sometimes starts to get testy.

She has a love-hate relationship with Andy. Here, it's love, I think. :)

Hey friends! I have a friend (who makes cool clothing and other stuff all by hand) participating in this fair up in Austin, so I thought I'd spread the word.

[ Hoang's online shop "hodgepodge design" with photos of her work ]

[ her handmade baby booties are super popular, get 'em while they're hot ]

Some real live shots of her work ... at play (thanks to our lovely model c):

Dang Wendy, your fingers be scary, yo. :)

I love it when I get fan mail. Or in this case, ARCH ENEMY MAIL!!!

Oh my eyes!!!

Where do I even begin.

2 flat tires within half an hour (not mine, but I can now confidently say I can swap a flat with a spare all by myself) (Thanks Eddy, thanks Brian!).

Lunch @ M's. Got to see Happy. :) [ see all 12 pics ]

Happy Hour where some people got uh, a little too happy. :)

Saw Mamma Mia - I laughed, cried, then laughed again. I'm not even a "musicals" person.

Got sealed into two parking lots within 12 hours.

Forging new friendships, strengthening present ones.

Sincerely happy for people doing what they need to be doing.

Japanese food and karaoke for J's bday - good times. [ see the full set o' pics ]

Digital camera was misplaced when I most needed it. (Recovered safely, thank goodness. But nearly went insane.)

Hung out with cousin's fiancee's cousins and their cousins. And the coolest grandma that ever lived.

Bumped into Claire (as I seem to do once a year) and re-met King (found out he's soon to be remotely related to me).

Movie night. And oh, the wisdom of mothers. Profoundly and soundly blown away and humbled.

"A real fighter doesn't need to fight."

Don't be a playa-hata, now ...

HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAA. Karen rocks so hard.

So, I was like all ready to be all productive and stuff tonight. Instead, I allowed myself to get distracted by this lil' lady.

Click through for more pics and some semi smart-aleck comments.

I can now tell time and by a cool pink display too:

I have reason to believe this gift card (feelin' da love!) is an intentional mockery of iHaTePiNk, knowing the bestower of the gift's humorous personality:

And ... blatant iHaTePiNk love, even from a hospital bed:

I couldn't see the blue sky from where I was at, but I could see it was just around the corner. :)
