Milk Gone Off Big Time Styleeeee

When discussed with a 10 year-old brother on what element I could be a bender of...

After much consideration, he deemed that I would have to be the avatar because I have characteristics of water and fire (earth and air, notwithstanding) . Fire is when I bite people and "eat" his Legos (my two favorite techniques of bothering him. I don't actually eat his tiny Lego pieces, I just maybe somehow cause their disappearance for a few minutes. Well now. There's no reasonable way of explaining myself without sounding like a semi-crazy person). Water is "everything else" - I'm assuming when I prepare his grilled cheese sandwiches (American cheese, black forest ham, with mustard - added baby spinach leaves to make it feel healthier), drive him around to all of his over-achieving-kid-things, and talk to him until he's sleepy so that he won't have nightmares.

My god, I'm such a homebody.

But I do love it at home.

Hammurabi's Code

And other things. Hammurabi's for my etymology paper. The other things are for my friends. It's my genius fault, really. I REALLY want to make a parallel between the hit show Friends and my, well, friends. But we soon realized that the pool of characters wasn't enough to cover all of our friends. So, we started collecting more characters from TV show, cartoons, movies, books. Maybe what we need is our own original series. Too bad we don't have an objective third person to use as a narration device.

Let's start off with the easy ones... _____________________________________________________________________________ Coach Coach - Nick Kent if you're well-versed in the world of sports blogs - as I like to call him, has been a class...

So the conversation with my middle-aged, Chinese father went like so: "I remember the movies that impacted me the most when I first came to America" "Titanic" "No, Charlie " "Dad, what the hell is Charlie? I've never heard of it before?" a low-budget, 90s film perhaps? "nononono...You know the one with the 娃娃(doll) with the scar. Scary" "A doll? You mean Chuckie?" "Yeah. That's what I said. Scary doll, scared the shit out of me" "Really? Did you understand english then?" "哎呀(onomatopoeia of exasperation- aiyah! ) I didn't need to. So. Scary. At first, I watched by myself, but then I was too scared so I convinced your mother to watch it with me. She was pregnant with you at the time, I think. She thought the movie would influence your birth, but I was scared so there were no other options" "...So you risked your firstborn's birth to watch Chuckie?" "...Yes" ...

30 Day Drawing Challenge - Day 2: Favorite Animal

My darling Bonbon the Chihuahua. Who is more bark than bite. Who hates small children. Who is my favorite 跟屁虫. Who is a small dog in the land of giants. Who does not shiver or have weird body proportions because she has more dignity than your average Chihuahua. Love of my life.
