Patty and I had a conversation...

and this came up...

very funny

Slacker numero trois

and now it's my turn to offer my sincere apologies to our small but dedicated blogging community. I have been knee deep in work, mourning (fucking eagles), writing a new screenplay (animated musical about a little bird named Flop)and planning the trip to AFRICA!!!!!!! That's right, it's all happening. Kevin and I leave on November 11th for Tanzania and then, after a 7-day safari in the Serengeti, hit the road for Rwanda where we'll spend a couple weeks at the orphanage shooting photos and videos of the kids. in case I failed to tell everyone, Kev and I got involved with this foundation that supports the orphans of the genocide. we're going to redesign their website and help with the fundraising effort by doing a documentary of sorts. we're REALLY excited. and, don't worry, in Rwanda we'll be traveling with people from the foundation and when we're in Tanzania we're safari-ing in very safe areas. Erin, I'll bring you back a black orphan for your kid collection. let me know if you'd like a boy or a girl.

in digestive news...in order to fix my f'ing stomach, I am going to try the Master Cleanse. pretty much I'm not gonna eat for 10 days. only pepper, lemon juice and maple syrup. yes!

what else? sara palin scares the bejesus out of me. if obama doesn't win I may stay in Rwanda forever.

go birds. please.

Sausage

Hey all-
Like my brotha, apologies for my absence from the blog---but how bout them Iggles??? Da Bears--(don't even care for them, really, but gee whizz!)
My Justin wanted to watch the football game on TV, but I had to cover his eyes so as not to derail any of his natural talent...the kid's got a mean spiral on him---must get that from A. Pat. So Slob--thanks so much for the B-day wishes, and reminding me that I am no longer young--no fear brotha, Mother Nature reminds me EVERY DAY!!! I am also VERY concerned about your broken hand sweetie, and the splint/brace that you're wearing...not an ortho nurse by any means, but I hope that Billy-Jo-Ray-Bob knows what he's doing??? If you let a fracture heal improperly, you may not be able to get full range of motion back in your lil' paw, kitten.....just puttin it out there---don't want you to be all cripped up is all----how will you prepare X Mas dinner for the family??? And just FYI---my 6 year old son can NOT score you any "meth" on the bus---it's Collin you need to talk to-- he is "the man" at preschool, and I know he's got connections, yo! God I am old--I can't even pretend to sound cool anymore...COME HOME SIBLINGS!!!!!! RIGHT NOW!!!!! We all miss you and love you guys!!!!

I'm still here

Hey everybody!

Sorry about the absence from the blog. I broke my hand last week and have been doing the "no insurance" cha-cha to get it fixed. No worries though, our training room and orthapedic surgeon have got me all fixed up for a grand total of $72 (the cost of the X-ray). I have a sweet thing called a gutter splint on it for the next four weeks and I am learning to write left-handed. Also, typing's a bitch. I'll try to post the X-ray for those medical personnel in our family. Also, I'm getting insurance. Anyhoo, a couple of things. Nice photoshopped tan P-ster. Suck it, Wayne. WELCOME TO THE BLOG, POP!!! Erin, can you ask Justin to score me some meth on the bus?

I'll try to post as much as I can. I don't get any days off this season, but I shall do my best.

Love you all.

The cripple

E-A-G-L-E-S!!!!

Hey all-
I heard there may be a lil' football competition on TV tonight----anyone watch it? I dunno, but it sure would be a darn shame if McNabb and Westbrook had a fumblina---but EVEN WORSE--- wouldn't it SUCK if you could actually execute lateral passes that resulted in NO yards at all whatsoever??? Golly, what a dang shame that would be.....that would really hurt to watch.....a lot.......anyway--love to all---oh yeah- fly eagles fly----HAHAHAHA!!!!!!! Put that in your pipes and smoke the shit out of it!!!!!!!!!

Going to Hell

Hey all-
Just wanted to let the fam know that AJ has moved out of her apartment and into a nursing home--Saint Martha's Manor in Downingtown,PA. She's had many a fall, and has lost so much weight that her Doctor has diagnosed her with "Failure to Thrive"--a common diagnosis for elderly people that don't eat much. I spoke to her yesterday, and she was SOOO confused---she didn't know it was me on the phone for a good couple of minutes, and that's really not like her at all....but as confused as she is, she still managed to send me a beautiful bouquet of flowers for my birthday----gotta love AJ, yeah? Just want to ask that we all make an effort to make sure we go and see her at this joint when everyone's home--we can take her out for like lunch and stuff---also, really need to help Aunt Maura as much as we can--she got this whole thing done without any help from anyone---mighty impressive--I'm gonna try to help her clean out AJ's apt., but if anyone talks to AJ on the phone--remember, she is a wee bit confused, and she really thinks that she can leave the nursing home and go back to her apartment...just need to remind her that it is not safe for her to be on her own like that anymore, and that St Martha's has mass twice a day--she really liked that idea! Anyway, thanks all--just wanted to let everyone know what's going on!
