Seen on a t-shirt (by a friend) at the Texas Trophy Hunters Show:
Shopping with a husband is like hunting with a game warden.

Thank you! My stylist was quite pleased with it as well. I hope to go back to him in a few months or so. What's not to love about a dude who can give a good cut and has a black pedi? 
I also hope to have a "photo shoot" tonight for better pics to share in the pictures thread.

I've totalled my car. But this makes me happy. I've survived. I don't take life for granted anymore. Everything material kind of pales into insignificance. It's the greatest feeling in the world.

I finally got my saxophone repaired. The difference is so huge I jumped from joy!
Imagine you're in the shower and you discover you sing like Andrea Bocelli. That's how I feel right now.

I finally found a mortar and pestle. The only one in a little store in Bar Harbor Maine. I think it's made of green marble.

My day has been made by non-latex gloves being filled with water and used as water balloons... and watching my hubby destroy them in various creative ways. Heh heh...

I'm serious Ben. Thanks for asking. The little guy is more than okay.
He was looking at the ducks and swans, running and squealing (as 18mths old do). I was shadowing him, about 3 feet away and he stopped at the edge of the water, and rocked forward on his foot, lost his balance and he went in head first.
I pulled him out by his leg, upside down, dumped him on the bank while I got myself into a safe position. Really don't remember how I managed to get into the water to rescue him - I didn't think, I just did it.
All I remember thinking was that I wasn't getting out of that river without Babybat.
Thank goodness I have a cool head when it comes to stuff like this, must have inherited it off my Dad.

omgosh, so glad he's okay!
I know what you mean by just doing it though, its just instinct! I'm as squeamish as a person can get but if someone needs first aid I just do it, and then I get sick when its okay to get sick XD Like once when I was living in the dorms my then roommate was packing up to go home for the weekend, and you know those cheapy disposable razors with only two blades that will slice your legs up if you're not careful? Yeah, she put on in her bag without putting the plastic guard over the blades. Then later she stuck her hand in the bag and sliced her finger open, and it cut really deep. Immediately I rushed her to the bathroom so we could get toilet paper and put pressure on the finger, and then rush to the RA's room because the first aid kit, as a product of GENIUS by the dorm administrators, was locked up and only our RA had the key. Of course she was in bed so it took me a while to wake her up by banging on her door, and after asking for gauze, putting emphasis on how much blood my roommate was loosing (she was by this time half passed out in the bathroom), she gave me a few bandaids. -_-*
Anyway, after we stopped the bleeding, and everything was groovy, I threw up and then passed out. The end!

Saya I couldn't have done that. I would have just passed out! I can't even watch those medical TV shows.
...Maybe I could do it, if I didn't think about it.... Maybe...
I remember when they were doing prenatal classes. One of the midwifes brought in a placenta. I was in the bathroom in seconds. Mr Bat was like "Cool, can I put some gloves on and hold it"

what didn't make my day? It wasn't busy, so I got to goof off with all my coworkers, they absolutely adored my cupcakes (yes I base my self worth on my baking skillz), I tried out this new Thai take out place and it was amazing and delicious, and I even made more friends with the cashiers  Was the best last day of work I could ask for. Did that make sense? I'm too happy to form proper sentences.

Haha.
I love saxophone.
In a related, I learned that I can play piano really well, and I never really tried.

Apple-cinnamon waffles (yummy wonderful deliciousness covered with maple syrup) and the proximate completion of rabbit stew. My male makes a fabulous rabbit stew. We'll have lots of leftovers too since it's a 1.5 kg rabbit. The grocery store across the parking lot from my place of employment sells rabbits. I was rather surprised the first time I bought a rabbit (March) that they were shaped like rabbits, and then I thought "Why am I surprised? Chickens are kind of shaped like chickens..." I guess I'm used to buying cuts of meat, rather than whole animals.
They also had tiny quail (9 or 12 to a package, and halal-qualified, too), which I would like to try some time, but they're apparently a pain in the ass to prepare because of their tiny tiny bones.
