benchilada | Let me dust off my blogospheres...then put on some underwear...

I told you I'd be back.

Now put down that fucking soldering iron, you don't have any idea what you're doing.

A) Due to a combination of stress, medication, and general shittiness since the first of the year, I weigh more right now than I ever have. I'm fighting it and it sucks and I don't feel like myself and then I hear about how Amanda Palmer of the Dresden Dolls just left her record label after she refused to let them cut shots of her "unmarketable" belly from a recent video,

B) Seriously, Japan, keep that motherfucking throttle WIDE-GODDAMNED-OPEN.

C) Went to Florida over Thanksgiving to see a Goodly Portion of my family. This was the first time this group had been together since Sara and I got married over four years ago.

I love that I have a family where, when one person says "Everybody put your arms across your chest like the carving on a sarcophagus" and everybody else thinks it's a perfectly sensible idea.

LEFT TO RIGHT:

Brother Jason, Stepfather Nathan, Mother Annet, Brother Nathan, Sister Kate (nee Ajay pre-nee Annet, Jr.), dumbheadface, Sara, Todd, partner of Brother Matthew.
