Brown Teletubby. No wait, a monkey
As promised:
More from the Halloween Rock’n’Romp are here.
I may dress him up again tomorrow for more pictures, if it’s sunny. I didn’t quite get my fill of monkey-baby.
Revenge is a dish best served cold, vengeance style, like my pizza
Mega props to Mrs Kennedy at fussy.org for creating such kickass T-shirts, which read, and I quote, verbatim-like, “Writing well is the best revenge.”
Amen to that, motherfuckers.
Some notes:
- Because I am Flickr’s bitch, I took several pictures. Here I am being both vengeful and motherly, and here I am with the super close-up on the words and, consequently, the bosomses.
- And. For you ladies, I would like to point out that these black shirts create a slimming effect ‘round about the baby paunch area while simultaneously enhancing the bosomses. I know, it must be magic, right? But it’s affordable magic. $15 til Nov. 1! and then only $20! Three colors! I think you should get one.]
That is all.
I’m so psyched for Halloween
There’s a Rock’n’Romp in D.C. on Saturday. You know Owen’s gonna be wearing a costume. A monkey costume, complete with squishy felt banana and quasi-prehensile tail. I made him try it on today because I’m sadistic like that and Christ, I could not stop laughing.
He cried, though. So I felt kind of bad. But if the camera had not died at the precise moment I finished fastening the velcro you’d be seeing pictures of a little brown Teletubby-looking thing right here, holding a banana.
A baby in a monkey costume lends itself to all sorts of potential costumes for the parents, nearly all of which involve Darwin, baboons, the HMS Beagle, or the Flying Spaghetti Monster. Stay tuned for details.
High gloss
It starts with you brushing your teeth, tweezing your eyebrows. You stare into the mirror. You find the eyeliner you forgot you even owned. Within minutes you’ve got Cleopatra eyes and burgundy red lips, a sad cross between 13 and 45, vaguely nostalgic and very sheepish.
This is why you never wear make-up.
Like I need one more reason to be obsessed with Flickr
Say, Mom and Dad, you might want to look into this. Think of the *counting* 1,090 photos available to you on my Flickr account, 524 of which are of Owen! Have fun.

Tuesday TV Blogging: I wish I reported to Cmdr. Geena Davis
1. Commander in Chief, last 15 minutes: I think I would really, really like this show if I ever watched it. I would be interested to see some analysis of it. Very, very sad that I would rather live in that show with her as my president than in the stupid real life Bush-o-rama I currently inhabit.
2. The Office: Why the FUCK isn’t this on tonight?!? Do not toy with me. I need this.
3. Boston Legal, first 38 minutes … ish: Can’t get past the shitty camerawork and bizarre editing. And was that Monica Potter?
4. My Wife and Kids: You know, the vehicle for that one Wayans guy. It’s the funniest thing in syndication at 6:30.
5. South Park, first 27 minutes, broadcast-television version: Actually, I have no idea. I taped it because I thought it was going to be another episode of SATC. Wasn’t. Getting really bad reception on FOX anyway.
6. Seinfeld, five minutes near the end: Hey! Catherine Keener! But wait. Still Seinfeld.
OK. And remember, kids: VCRs? Are TIVO for the rest of us. Thank you and good night.
