We went and looked at an old farm house last week that had been completely overhauled and done up in the latest decorator colors. The kitchen was mustard orange, the dining room was baby poop brown, and the living room was the same color as that dishwasher of yours.Birrdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06982501810291219741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7570298073511349932.post-69066467142990940792009-02-20T19:30:00.000-07:002009-02-20T19:30:00.000-07:00Happy day Robert, I have a condo on 12 acres mysel...Happy day Robert, I have a condo on 12 acres myself with fields of unfinished buildings and ripening HOA fees.<BR/><BR/>Babies babies everywhere<BR/>Babies babies have no hair<BR/><BR/>That poem is free to Carly's, Carrie's, and Taliatha's babies as well, only to be given on their five year anniversaries of life.Mr. Glasshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15681295059565187123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7570298073511349932.post-2840601949185003192009-02-19T13:03:00.000-07:002009-02-19T13:03:00.000-07:00Yeah, Rob, don't you remember?

You chased me into the kitchen for some (perceived, obviously) slight, and I grabbed a (dirty, obviously) fork off the table and turned around and held it up in some mock defense. I'm not sure what you were trying to do next, but you ended up bringing your hand down right on the business end of the fork. It went into your hand a little bit. Just enough to draw blood and to convince me that I probably had to throw that fork away. Which was a shame, 'cause I only had two forks, and that was the good one.<BR/><BR/>I remember these things. It's all I have.aaronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14331910699086583768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7570298073511349932.post-51123990017004745862009-02-19T09:42:00.000-07:002009-02-19T09:42:00.000-07:00I also have to admit to some trepidation about com...I also have to admit to some trepidation about commenting after all that, but CONGRATULATIONS!!!
