I need this

Need a spare chair? Just take down the Mona Lisa from the wall and unfold it. Party over? Re-hang it! Brilliant!

Le sigh

Don't you hate it when you have a crush on a friend and there's nothing to be done about it?

1922 Telegraph

Found telegraph from 1922 announcing the birth of my grandfather!

The inside reads:
Received in Hilversum (a Dutch down near Bussum) on June 24 1922 7:24
(sent from Amsterdam 7:15)

A sturdy son, everything very good - Tonny (my great-grandfather)

The outside is addressed to a Father Egbertus (my grandfather's side of the family is very Catholic) at a school called Ludgerusweek in Hilversum, Netherlands.

How cool is that?!?

Beautiful Day in North Georgia

Sun is shining, not too hot, not too cold.
Had a great boot camp workout this morning. Shay is the best.
Now for some organic strawberry picking. $8 per gallon - not bad, considering the fact that you KNOW they are fresh, because you're the one pulling them from the plant!
I'm thinking this afternoon I'll lay out a little, but it always makes me so homesick for Florida, wishing there was a pool or and ocean to go to. (Lake Lanier is pretty enough when the water levels are up, but the water is so murky and muddy it ruins the whole experience for me.)

Meet Frank.the.tank.
He's the coolest chihuahua in the history of ever.
Also, he thinks he's a supermodel. (Shhh, don't tell him otherwise, you might break his wee chihuahua heart.)
