bloggin' aint so tough

the last rain we had teddy and i were outside most of the time soaking it in..(teddy's favorite things: puddles and splashing, oh the joys of seasonal fun)..it feels like a long dry summer is nigh.

our new kitten found a cozy place to sleep after he wore himself out prancing and leaping around. we still cant decide on a name, but carl and i are partial to black beard...everyone else wants to call him zorro. i thought i'd be an awesome mom and let teddy pick out a new kitty (for kittens were/are a joy beyond measure for me). i could just imagine his excitement. we went to my friend anthony's who practically has a kitten farm, (he's got something like four more pregnant cats...he lets nature take its course obviously). i even brought my video camera to capture this happy occasion. teddy was mildly impressed, he didnt flap his arms or squeal or anything. i was like "c'mon teddy! are you kidding me? there's baby kitties everywhere!!!" i think the only things that get him excited is yellow school buses and rubber ducks. i cant find a correlation.
(and so much for all of my "nature appreciation moments." every kid is different, i guess.)

sometimes carl comes unto the computer and leaves weird traces of his artistic binging/therapy behind. he's got a crazy brain. he is a whiz with 'paint,' though.

more hidden jewels that the computer contains. i think matt and willy were working at rubicon and wanting to die. memories.

a fir and a dramatic sky.

people at carls high school have been hiring carl to do t-shirts. he's pretty crafty. this is a giraffe.

he just gives them what he feels like drawing...apparently this is the "emerald weapon" from final fantasy 7.

it's morphin' time!!!!
zordon? zurg? i dont remember his name.
