The fall is coming and soon winter will be here. Right now I am looking at my thermometer and it says 42.
Yesterday I had a family reunion. It was so boring. I was one of the youngest people there. The next youngest person was in 1st grade. I think the person right above me in age was my mom. It was held at a retired couple's summer home. I got my food and sat on a couch and ate. Then I tried to fall asleep but it was so boring. My dad left for work and I wanted to go with him so bad just to get out of that place. Once everyone was done eating they all came in by me and wanted photographs. I was the designated photographer of the day. "Let's get first cousins." "Let's get first and second cousins." "How about aunts and nieces?" AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! After the photo session they pulled out the old photobooks to admire pictures from ages past. The first grader said what I was thinking, "I'm bored!" His great-grandmother replied, "No you're not. Listen to the older people talk and maybe you'll learn something." I learned who was in which picture. Then the hostess started complaining about how cold it was. Of course she is used to Arizona weather so the 65 degrees we had yesterday was chilly. She cranked up the heat. I am sweating now. Then people started to leave because they wanted to get home before it got dark. I think my mom decided to leave at 4:30. When I walked out in the rain it felt so good to cool down. I think there was steam coming off me. It was family so I shouldn't complain but then I have had dentist appointments that were more exciting and more pleasurable.
Time for some pics.
Would you take your kids here?
Pretty clever anti-smoking ad. I remember havign a roommate in college that once said that he would break up with a girl if she smoked and he wouldn't want to kiss a tailpipe.
I think those are the hardest nipples I have ever seen.
I think stuff like this is what deters people from using public transportation.
These are some pretty clever bags. If I had them at the store I managed years ago I could just see tourists coming in and asking for bags and my foreign employees would have just given them away.
That's a cheap nose job.
Yet another reason not to drink at Starbucks.
This folks is the definition of irony.Well I have an electrician coming tomorrow because I know little about electricity and am not the type of person that wants to work with something like that. The light switch in my bathroom doesn't turn on the light. Yes, I checked the circuit and the bulb, neither need changing. I sort of brushed the switch panel and it blinked and then I brushed it again and it cam on. Then I put my hand on the wall above the switch and it went off and then I let go and it started blinking like a strobe light. I guess it is better to have it checked out by a pro than risk having the house burn down. I am also going to have another outlet put in my kitchen. Hope everyone has a good day

Thats one crazy get together, as always love the pictures. Hope you get you light fixed!
The Starbucks pic didn't open so I don't see why we shouldn't go there....probably will after I post this comment.
A boring family reunion? Wow, I didn't know family reunions could be boring. Those are some crazy ads and what not. At first, I thought the place was called kid sex change, I'm not sure why, but if they just separated it to make kids exchange, sure! Creepy Starbucks cups.

Thanks. I sometimes have too much time on my hands to go looking for pics but as long as they make people happy, I'll continue to look.
The guy came and put in a new switch and will be back on Thursday to do a new outlet all for the low price of $150

I think it was boring for me because the majority of people there were retired and busy talking about all the new joints they have had installed in their bodies over the past few years. That is boring to me.
Yeah that was my point about that first place. If I had kids I would be fearful of taking them to that place. Maybe I would have to give them a unisex name. Even Kids Exchange sounds strange sort of like if you don't like the kid you have then you can exchange him or her for a brand new model sort of like a car lot.

I'm sorry it didn't load for you. It was some creepy teeth at the bottom of the Starbucks cup. I wouldn't go to that place because first and foremost the jacked up prices. Then there is the whole controversy of where Starbucks gets their coffee from but I'm not much into that because I think most coffee is just coffee.

Oh wow, I would have been bored too, but we have lots of young people in my family too. Well some people would like to exchange their kids at times. I'd just look at it like you take my kid for awhile in exchange for some cash.
Family - you can't live with them, you can't shoot 'em. Loved the pix.
Nothing like riveted steel nipples!

They present too many problems. I think your teeth would get shattered.
