But if that’s boring, I’ve chronicled my adventures in three illustrated chapters (1. Oblivious, 2. Realization, 3. Giving Up), attached for your viewing pleasure.

p.s. And yes, I did in fact post this on facebook, but Ben posted that extra adorable lunch video on facebook too, so I think I have the right… even though this is not half as cute.

Sorry I called you a loser, Bill.

I meow’d this meow meow and meow meows and meowed them to meow the ultimate Meow Meow Meow!!!

Ouch.

Chance looks like Sheep. Sheep looks like Chance.

p.s. i feel the same way about kate.

p.p.s. do you guys still watch lost? if not, sorry.

Do you know about moomie? She is a sort of alter ego/mini me that I created for funsies. She always wears her hood up, loves her silly sock boot slippers, and has a cat named Schmoomie. A lot of situations involving moomie come from real life, like the following….

(yes, i once whispered this question to bryan right before we were going to fall asleep. no i don’t know why i whispered it.)

So whenever you hear me say something that doesn’t quite make sense, or when I run around real fast making silly sounds with my hood up, or when I get a little tippy and give a speech that doesn’t really make any sense at space themed parties just know that it’s really moomie you’re listening to.

DO YOU HAVE AN ALTER EGO?

Oh, hello. I didn’t see you there Shambot. I was just thinking about my friend Chance. Oh, you don’t know him? He’s okay I guess. Although… come closer, I don’t want anyone to hear us… I think he has a problem. An internet problem. See, every time I talk to him on the internet and have to step away to, say, take the kettle off the stove or answer the telephone and THIS happens:

11:04:31 AM Chance: hello

11:12:23 AM Chance: me
11:12:27 AM Chance: me me me me

And, well, you get the picture. To tell you the truth, Shamby, I think he needs help. REAL HELP. So I’ve started a little log of all the times this happens in order to show the doctors. Please help, won’t you? If you see a case of this terrible affliction, send it to me. This way we can help our friend in his time of need. Joel’s already done his part. Won’t you?

Don’t you wish we had the “rotate the crime scene” option in photoshop?

my shambot.

Do you remember me? I serenaded you with my top two hit songs from the Billboard Charts, “We Belong Together” by Mariah Carey and “Since U Been Gone” (sorry about the grammar/spelling, I was going through a phase) by Kelly Clarkson? I took you to go see top grossing movie Revenge of the Sith and cheered with you as the New England Patriots won the Superbowl. I even held your hand while you squealed with joy when you found out that Nicolas Cage had a son, and he named him Kal-El! So why haven’t you called? Why haven’t you sent me an e-mail or a text? I MISS YOU.

Love,
2005

p.s. to remind you, here are some valentines you made for me….

bill, my, and joel’s submission for the mcad 2005 valentines day contest. oh how the times have changed. i love my blatant ripoff of R2-D2…

“They’re ads for a website, Jaran, which helps you make reservations for hotels I think, for various activities such as business trips, summer vacation, and…hotel…trips. Believe it or not, it’s even more awesome and adorable if you know Japanese. For example, in the first one in the background they keep saying “Shuccho, shuccho, shuccho” which means “Business trip, business trip business trip,” AND every thing the cat says is in adorable cat Japanese where he says “nyan” all the time instead of real words.”

LALAM CHA LAM!

“He couldn’t stand another night with that smug hookah.”

Unhappy Hipsters simply takes images from old issues of Dwell captions them appropriately.

Selleck Waterfall Sandwich is so difficult to explain, you may just have to head on over and pick your favorite combo (I also like Veggie and Meatball).

some of you may have seen this totally redonk picture of my parents and myself. Well, get prepared for MORE pictures of my parents after the break!

If you have never seen it, My Parents Were Awesome is this amazing collection of sweet parent pictures (generally pre-parental phase) sent in by the children they reared. Some of them are silly, some of them are downright sassy! The discovery of this sweet site, combined with an amazing picture I found of my Uncle last year encouraged me to find some awesome images of my own.

SO I DID.

Let me introduce my parents. Jim is on the left with his unrelated prom date. That is one massive corsage. Carey is on the right, raising the roof.

Um, I know you think your dad was the badass Katie, but it was actually my mom. Carey knows how to do the “yeah, I’m awesome” smile. On the right is a sweet photo she took of a tropical hotel room! exciting.

I wish so dearly my mom had held onto this sweet t-shirt, because I love it.

Carey and Jim on yet another tropical vacation. LOOKIN GOOD, GUYS!

and, finally:

tiny Jim. SO TINY!

some of my favorites were not available for download. They are here, here, here, & here (THAT ONE IS MY ABSOLUTE FAVE!!).
