Uke, Uke, Uke

I’m still pregnant so you get another ukulele video.  This one’s for Grandpa.  I don’t have much else to say about that.

Oh wait, yes I do.  You people are adorable.  Thanks for all the love and support and emails and wall posts and tweets and…  You make my heart all squishy.

That’s my excuse for being so [...]

NPH Saves the Day Again

What happens when you mix a singing NPH with ponies, unicorns, rainbows and glitter?  Only the best possible thing ever.

Also?  SQUEE!
Right, I’m not making any sense, am I?  Here, this will help.

Oh shit, multiple people have done it. DOUBLE SQUEE!

Heh. That pony said “balls.”

Ok, one more. Because you can’t possibly have enough [...]

Grandpa

Grandpa Lonon

My grandpa died yesterday afternoon – a nice, quiet, painless death at the age of 88.  Now his body will go to Duke where they can collect what they need, then he’ll be transported back to Marion, NC where he can join his wives.

I don’t usually do re-posts, but today it just seems appropriate.  I wrote [...]

October

So it’s almost October – which used to signal apple cider, birthday cake, and Halloween for me.  Now it’s the month where I dread the arrival of pink-themed merchandise and magazines filled with heart-wrenching tales of loss to breast cancer.

And this year it’s especially hard because there’s been an awful lot of breast cancer awful close [...]

And Then I Knew Everything Would Be Alright with the World

BFF

With each pre-baby project we finish, I lose one more distraction to keep me from obsessing about the impending obliteration of my bits and that whole feeding-and-care-of-your-killer-newborn-overlord thing.  Not that I obsess.  Ever.  That’s totally not my personality.

*pauses to adjust welding goggles hanging from life-sized cardboard cutout of NPH*

But I’d be lying if I denied that [...]

This Week’s Tweets

Does anyone else confuse Pat Robertson with Rob Pattinson when reading headlines quickly? #PatSparklesTooRight #
Crafty friends rock. http://t.co/jdpt9l9e #
I watched this on Sunday and I still can't stop thinking about it. I'm not ready for another election. http://t.co/9edft07C #
It's time to re-zone this body as single occupancy, already. I can't even talk about what's happening [...]

The Uke of the Tiger

We interrupt today’s uke-age with a brief bout of self promotion – seeing as how I just sent over the official book proposal to Shawna the Wonder Agent, I have to beg you (at least) one more time to become a fan of the Lymphomania Facebook page before she starts pounding the proverbial streets.  Yes, I [...]

The Wisdom of Waitresses

So I’m officially done leaving the house until I’m on my way to the place with the epidurals.

I can’t even take a walk around the block without getting stopped by someone who wants to talk about the weather balloon I’m smuggling under my shirt.  “When are you due?  Do you know what you’re having?  Is this [...]

Falling

There’s something magnificent and piercing about the sunlight in Fall.  Maybe it’s due to there being fewer clouds.  Without those clouds racing across the sky, as they would on a windy Summer day, the constant movement of the air seems somehow like a surprise.

Not that many Summer days are windy.  But there doesn’t seem to be [...]

The Cute, the Funny, and the I CAN’T WAIT TO DEVOUR THIS BOOK!

Zombie vs Unicorns

My attention span is getting shorter than my length of time between pees, so I’m going to distract you with the fantastic-ness that people send me.

First, the cute.  Patty Punker gave me this.  I was going to originally wait and snap a pic with Paul in it, but based on those latest photos of THE OVERLORD, [...]
