Carnage and a memememe
♥ Comments (9) ♥
Nothing like some CARNAGE! to let you know it’s spring. My mom likes to say that when my sister’s knee’s were covered in scabs and bleeding she always knew summer was on it’s way. This is my nephew yes poor thing...fell off his bike one too many times
yes i know that’s one sad face..but he’s a drama queen. tells you it hurts 47865398465873653 times. Limps around for days. I think i need to find the machete paper cutter and just hack it off for him
here’s the gross close up
apparently when you put neosporin and then spray “magic band-aid” a.k.a. spray adhesive bandage..it makes for weird looking yellow stuff that is covered in adhesive bandage. ew.
anyways my sister and i thought it would be fun to post his carnage. I’m not sure why we thought this would be fun. *shrug* Then again my sister likes telling the stories about how i dragged her knee on a rusty bumper..or when i got her ankle caught int he bike spokes of my mom’s old 3 speed bike from sears…
ok so i was tagged, by apparently a rampant meme out there...i’m seeing it everywhere. I’m not going tot ag 7 people but i hope at least 7 people read this here blog..so maybe 7 of you will steal it!
So i was tagged by Carrie and Nell. Man you guys are fast.
The meme:
Each person tagged gives 7 random facts about themselves. Those tagged need to write in their blogs the 7 facts, as well as the rules of the game. You need to tag seven others and list their names on your blog. You have to leave those you plan on tagging a note in their comments so they know that they have been tagged and to read your blog.
ok:
totally random go!
1. I was a strict vegetarian for 26 years. Out of the 26 years i was vegan for 6 years.
2. When i was six i was on the bozo show. The waiting list was 6 years. When my mom was pregnant with me she signed up. I got to go when i was six.
3. I often eat popcorn for brakfast or dinner, and cake or ice cream for dinner. I do not agree with “those people” (you know who you are) who say dessert foods aren’t real food. yeah right. want some of my cupcake for breakfast?..thought you did.
4. I seem to (like my boyfriend) have a “thing” for buying notebooks. Sketch books, field notes, graph paper, lined paper, journals...you name it. I have piles of them. None of them are filled.
5. I am an avid type nerd. There is nothing prettier than a beautiful letterform. My favorite type faces are: futura, clarendon, and sabon
6. When i take pictures with my camera...most of the time i never look at the screen. actually 95% of the time i don’t look. I once had a professor in photography (back before digital photography) who forced us to shoot over 15 weeks tons of film “from the hip” while 90% of those pictures were nothing great 10% of them rocked. I’ve learned to get great pictures you have to look at the thing/s you are shooting instead. this is indeed a gamble so take many...you will never know until you upload.
7. At age 19 i had magenta hair. I wanted to be like Mikki from the band lush. So i dyed my blond hair with manic panic..which then STAINED my hair. It was eletric pink 8 months later. I also used to listen to hardcore, louisville hardcore, some karishna-core, and some old screamo. I think i still have some band shirts in my closet from back in the day. I still like to listen to some of it today.

ooh, I agree with the dessert foods thing and the notebooks thing. Except, if you were to look in all my notebooks, you could see where I used the first few pages and then got distracted. :)

Very interesting…
The meme, not the kneeknee. The kneeknee is just tragic. Poor Zander…

I actually ate my left over birthday cake last night for dinner! And, I can’t even begin to count how many notebooks, journals, pads of paper, etc I have. I think I buy a new one every time I’m out, even though I save them because they’re pretty and don’t want to use them up. How goofy is that?!

Alton Brown is with you on the popcorn (with sugar and milk) for breakfast. I haven’t tried it yet but I do plan on trying soon. I need to buy more lunch bags as I like to put 1/4 cup of corn in a bag a nuke it for I think @40 sec.
I didn’t know they made spray on bandaide stuff...cool!

Eat what you want, when you want! That’s my motto. Although, I did have to buy bigger jeans. HAHA!
In a week, Zander will be showing off his scab with pride.

I love a new, empty notebook. Always have good intentions to fill it up with....something. Rarely happens though!
I went to see Bozo too! My friend’s dad got tickets that they’d signed up for a zillion years back.
Poor little guy with his scrapes. My middle son is the drama queen. I always tell him we’ll just have to amputate.
