This morning we glued corkboard along the lengths of the ends of our bookshelves to make a good place to put all of Nefarious’s school stuff, and then spent the afternoon on a long bikeride… It took us down to the castle in High Park, on which a tree fell several weeks ago destroying half of it, as well as causing some minor injuries. On the way back we stopped off at Nefarious’s summer camp to say hi, and her friends made fun of me for riding a girl’s bike (I ride Caitlin’s bike). Then a big spaghetti dinner and a dip in the pool before bedtime stories. Pretty nice day on the whole. I’m sort of out of order here, but one of my favorite things to do is to bike to the park and hope that the ice cream truck comes… I had a wonderful childhood, but growing up rural, the music of the ice cream truck is a pleasure I never had, and I make the most of it now.
I have the world’s cheapest phone so my photo — which I’ve gone out of my way to enhance — of the trashed castle is completely useless… I saw a guy in the elevator of our building a few days ago playing with his iPhone, and it’s pretty slick looking, but I’m way past the point in my life where I have any interest in expensive gadgets. Unless it’s in the form of a boat or a car.
And now to catch up on my emails about various sorts of body modification for the upcoming books.

i love this photo!
It is very amusing envisioning you riding along merrily, pink tassles streaming. Makes me smike. :D
*smile! :D
pink tassles on the handle-bars FTW!!!!
That photo is the most hilarious thing I’ve ever seen.
I have only recently ordered a phone with all of the bells and whistles, and despite my age (30) I can’t wait to try it out. You may be surprised at what you could do with one, considering it can replace your mp3 player, phone, camera, address book, etc.
Jajaja, I don’t have an mp3 player or address book or even a camera (other than SLR) — but I would probably use a phone with a good camera in it because I miss having a portable camera.
I would call it a stroke in the favor of versatility, then: I know that once I get my phone set up I will never have to explain how cool “Der Hölle Rache kocht in meinem Herzen” again. I’ll just play it and make people leave the room so I can listen to it in peace ;)
i actually just got an iphone. i wasn’t going to do that, considering my age and not really thinking i have a need. but it’s amazing just how handy this thing really is. i can do so much on it that used to take me hours or even just the process of having to wait until i could get to something in order to do whatever.. i can do it from my phone, from wherever i want. i’d have to say they’re worth the money. they are super handy.
I have a nice phone too.

Caitlin: HAHAHAHHAHA!
PS. We have the same phone, except mine comes in b/w only.
caitlin, I think I almost peed my pants. That was entirely ridiculous in all the right ways.
I have no idea how I ever got through life without my iPhone! I’m typing this on my iPhone right now, in fact. :)
