No, We're Not Dead Just Yet...

"Lolly, Lolly, Lolly, Get your adverbs here!"

To steal (and mangle) a line from 'Game of Thrones':

"There is only one fate of blogs and his name is Death, and there is only one thing we say to Death: "Not today".

Maybe tomorrow.

At any rate, I had a few days of staycation coming to me, and for the last few days I've avoided most forms of digital media.  Little or no Facebook, and reduced time in Blogville in favor of binging on some DVDs and books.

But, all things must resume, so here we are.


Some news has bubbled up from the Tar Pits of Life!

The Cisco Kid and wife have hatched their first sprog.  All seem to be doing well, and little Eleanor Rosalie is the most beautiful little turnip you ever did see!


Poodles are more fun than you'd give them credit for.  Little Coco has this habit of jumping up in the air and doing a 360 before she lands that never fails to crack me up.  Also, if you happen to decide to water a tree in the backyard at 2 AM while waiting for the dog to pee, expect the dog to gaze in astonishment at the disparity in bladder sizes.
