The Day No One Thought Would Come

Tomorrow is my first day of work... it is scheduled to begin at the unhealthy hour of 8:00am.

Goodbye summer, goodbye fun times of wonderful joy and laughter! I shall only see you on evenings and weekends from now on...

Fam and Jams

Cousin Shawn was visiting from Arizona so we had a gathering last night with lots of food, beer, and cousins.

Uncle Moose read from his gospel, a biography of Ronald Reagan:

Cousins Maggie and Meg:

Then I went to see Bat For Lashes, a band that's shortlisted for the Mercury Prize:

Rock Show

Last night Dustin and I went to see his roommate's band, Vampire Hands, and another band called Thunder in the Valley. There was a guy dancing wildly right up by the stage the whole time, it was very funny/scary/mind-boggling. I was like "where's the rave, man? Not here dude, not here."


Thunder "don't call us old-timey" in the Valley:

Nate is Now a Lawyer

Yesterday Nate finished the bar exam and we helped him celebrate!

Going Pro

Last night Ben, Dustin and I went bowling to celebrate my new job, and because bowling is super awesome. I won the second game with a score of 142!!!

Turns out if you whistle, Fozzie gets wicked confused and turns his head as if to say "wtf?!":

The Foz, Day 1

Today I had a lunchtime party with Fozzie, Brielle's new pug - it was a blast!

Fozzie's middle name is spelled t-r-o-u-b-l-e.



Fozzie buried his toy in the couch crack and then he wiggled head first into the darkness to get it back:

Fozzie and I watched a little Montel:

Hipster Kickball

Tuns Plus Bubbles Equals Hilarity

Tundra was baffled by the magical, disappearing floating orbs of insanity! Despite their soapy taste they must be destroyed!




Tuns is like "I'M SO CONFUUUUUUSED!"

Shopping and Hopping

Here Nora contemplates which bike seat would be most comfortable:

Nora seems happy with her choice:

Then we went fabric shopping:


Nora says "they don't have Jersey knit fabric here" and I say "You gotta be knittin me!"

Later, Megan and I went to a BBQ, where Stef, Patrick and Jan were chillin:


Megan and I ended up in several Uptown establishments and did some dancing, which we take this seriously:
