ho-diddy-ho-ho

ain't nothin' like your own mock-ho-ho from one of the finest all-vegan bakeries in the land, watercourseif makes your mouth water just looking at it, don't it?

at the recent veg fest, they had a booth with mini versions of this glycemic monster. i gobbled all i could get my paws on and proceeded to slump in a chair with watery-eyes and a cockeyed grin for a good time afterwards.

irrational emotions

i'm not sure how we wound up there, however i do suppose that it could be called good olde 'surfing the web.'

we were catching up on some news items and then there was a google consultation and after a few random clicks we wound up parousing the phobia list.

it seems after some careful self-diagnosis, that i suffer from phobophobia, mixed with a little hobophobia--that is a phobia of phobias and a fear of becoming a bum on the street. what is your phobia?

largest memorial day event in the whirrledddd


over 53,000 participants took over the streets on monday for the 30th annual bolder boulder 10K. i was plagued with a hip injury the week previous to the event, but the time off seemed to allow the tweak in my right leg to mend as it didn't even peep during the race. 51minutes and change later, i rejoiced with my lovey-dovey and our pals in a sweaty pant before going out for a hearty meal.

fore!

in such a humane gesture, our friend gee-dub
decided to
quit playing golf
because of the iraq occupation.

in such a saintly vow, i am not sure why we don't exonerate him for such a chaste act of nobility.

texas high school football

i never woulda thunk it, but we have been seriously geeking on the show, friday night lights. we finished season one in just over a week and a half.

the show is about a small texas town high school football team and all the excitement and drama that ensues for being a part of all three of those descriptors.

there is love, anger, insecurity, drug-use, violence, infidelity, youth naivety, leadership, regret, racism, teamwork, physical disabilities, perseverance, doubt, dysfunction, mental instability, drinking, stealing, cheating, bribery, and innocence.

the rich irony is that i have never really cared for texas or football--high school was alright and i thoroughly enjoy a good high school movie here and there--but both we're beside ourselves with the genuine enjoyment that has come from being entranced by this series. season 2 is on dvd and has quickly found itself to the front of our queue.

fermentation

we stopped in for a beer at a brewery recently and entertained ourselves by watching the kinesics of the fermentation process.
