Boy in Black has a very limited wardrobe, consisting almost entirely of black band t-shirts and a few pairs of black or grey zip-off pants, teamed sometimes with a black hoodie and often a black bandana. Most of his clothes will stay crumpled in the bottom of a duffle bag for the whole month he's home. But not his Ultimate Frisbee jerseys. He has two team jerseys, one black and one white, and he is always careful to hang them up in an appropriate place of honor. The shirts are the first thing I saw yesterday when I walked into the house.
Yes, it's good to have him home.
If that chandelier was in my house it would be a part-time clothes dryer.

I see a Christmas chain - who made that? Makes me smile.
ReplyDelete(it's in the background0
FA: You and Boy in Black think alike ....
ReplyDeleteCathy: My daughter and With-a-Why have been working on a Christmas chain. It's a tradition! (I come from a family BIG on traditions.)
My guess is there may have been an elementary school teacher in your family somewhere :)

ReplyDeleteI was teaching sixth grade the year I was pregnant with my daughter ....
Is that all one cat?
ReplyDeleteYes, she is a pretty large cat.
ReplyDeleteThat is not a cat. That is a puddle of cattitude.
ReplyDeleteOMG, that cat....reminds me of boykitty (RIP). How much does she weigh (if she doesn't mind my intrusion)?
ReplyDeletePS: you're my best friend for installing the blogger comment thingy that allows us ne'er do well typepad users to sign in!
ReplyDeletePPB: Oh, I'm glad it's working!
ReplyDeleteI don't know how much the cat weighs. We have no scale in the house ....
what is the blogger comment thingy that PPB is talking about? I want to install it too!
ReplyDeleteIanqui explains it here.
ReplyDeleteOh hallelujah! The blogger comment thingy! I'm this close to leaving people links asking them to change. It has blocked me from leaving so many comments I'm leaving one here just to enjoy it.
ReplyDeleteSarah, here's one link.
My cheapo chandelier installed in my cookie-cutter apartment also doubles as a clothes dryer. Loved the puddle of cattitude phrase.
Seems like a prefectly reasonable place to hang laundry. I imagine we would do the same if we had a chandelier. It would certainly be easier than having to move things from the shower rod.
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love the big cat on the table!
ReplyDeleteI want to be a teenager again and live in your house, 'kay?
ReplyDeleteThe puddle of cattitude is probably just big boned.
