I like music, long walks on the beach, and poking dead things with a stick.

 Piccies!

It’s time for another picture-alicious post. First, my uber-adorable godson in an extreme closeup taken by the eldest demonspawn (which may explain why he looks so alarmed):

Next, the crib blanket I crocheted for Molly & Fred’s daughter Elizabeth (coming soon to a crib near you…that is, if you live in Portland):

I haven’t seen Angst looking so happy in ages. Maybe the family curse of the woes of Gemini men has skipped a generation. (And I can’t help liking him, even if he is too damned tall, and does set off metal detectors.) Check out the matching spectacles. And the eye-glasses, too. *smirk*

Molly cooked an utterly amazing Thanksgiving dinner — for the first time in my entire life, I had second helpings of turkey! And it was just really nice to hang out with her & Fred. We’ve got to see each other outside of work more often, which won’t be difficult once I start my new shift on the 17th and we both have weekends off! My youngest appeared rather intimidating with one of Fred’s toys…

And next…something kinda scary — for me, anyway. When I look at old pics of myself, I usually think, “Damn, I absolutely did not appreciate how good I looked at that age.” Every time I realize I’m not that far from 40, I try to comfort myself with the thought that most people seem genuinely surprised to find out how old I am. I’m not photogenic in the least (which is one of the reasons I got those naked art pics done 10 years ago, in the hopes of having at least 1 or 2 really lovely photos of myself!), but I haven’t done anything scary in a long time, so…

Here’s a pic of me wearing absolutely no makeup, completely bare-faced from the shower…


Yeah, this is what 38 looks like!

    Sweetie, you really need to have a “spoil yourself rotten in girlie stuff” day. You and Molly both.
