Funny:
Flashers, prepare to do your worst! You're on in 5!

Are you fucking kidding me? The name no longer accurately describes what the product will be used for: this is what happens when pretentious nitwits name stuff to try and sound sophisticated.


Touching:
Yasine hadn't seen me since May (with a brief 5-minute stop in mid-June) and everyone else was gone to Paris, Kentucky for the weekend so she'd been all alone for around 12 hours. At ease, and not wanting me to go (taken right before I did leave for good that day).

Stories:
these guys are one of the many different reasons I can't go outside on my own porch in the summer to do BBQ or some other stuff. There are other species, too, this happens to be the blue one. There's a black one, there are black-and-yellow ones, there are bees, there's the whole gamut. Fuckin' hate it. The one draw back of living on the third floor is that these guys make their nests right up under the roof. Otherwise for a bug-hater like me the third floor tends to be very good; optimally I'd live on a 6th or 7th floor.

$5.99 Turtle Sundae, this was the best sundae I've had in years and it was the best bargain (I was so full I felt I was going to puke and I'd only finished half of what you see there)

These next four photos are from when I cooked some cubed beef according to Dr. Walker's wife's amazing-tasting amazingly-simple marinade recipe:
onions to accompany the meat
ze marinade (one [large] can pineapple juice, 1/4 cup soy sauce, 8 cloves of garlic)
cooking
done

Wallpaper:
Rainbow umbrella; this came out really well. Anyone interested need only ask for the full-size one.
