Father's day love

I snapped these shots a few weeks ago.
I love that they are just hanging out.  In the sink. 


I had gone to grab a towel, and they were just being so sweet together that I had to sneak back for the camera.

Right now they are both napping. 

I really love these guys!
Happy Father's day Babe, we are lucky to have you.

Fionavar

I first read this book when I was 16 years old.  I worked at The Mall (back when it was called Canwest... if you grew up in Langford you know what I'm talking about) 
I will never refer to it as West Shore Town Center!  NEVER!

Ahem, anyway.
I worked at the Mall and there was this really cool older girl who worked at the book store and basically  shaped my taste in books by recommending practically Every Single Book I have EVER loved.  (I exaggerate, but not much)
I discovered Terry Pratchett, Neil Gaiman, Laurell K Hamilton and Guy Gavriel Kay through her suggestions.
There are more, because I was basically DEVOURING books then, easily finishing a book or two a week.

And Fionavar, oh Fionavar, How I love you!  I have passed this book on to pretty much anyone who asks me about finding a new book to read.

And I have managed a coup!  My bookclub is now reading it as our summer book!
YES!
Yesyesyes!

So I just plowed through the first book (The Fionavar Tapestry is actually three books in one compendium, The Summer Tree, The Wandering Fire, and The Darkest Road) and have happily skipped into the second book, easily and (with some serious guilt) ignoring all of my extra child-ular activities, you know, anything that doesn't involve The Kid.  LIKE MY JOB. Jobs I should say.  As I have a couple.

I recognize that this is a bad idea, BUT I CAN'T STOP READING IT!

Yes I am forever pegged as a Sci-Fi/Fantasy nerd, andIdon'tcare!
I revel in it.

I would l.a.r.p.

Yeah I would.

Get a copy of this book and read it.
It's so wonderful.

Sneaky Peeks


Now that I am back at work my blogging time (you know I try to be a good blogger right??  SO HARD I try!!) has been cut a tad short as most of my extra time is now spent preparing myself, the Kid and whoever lucky bugger it is that gets to hang out with time that day for while I am away.

WHY is this so tricky??  It's only three days a week!  But MAN ALIVE it's a new juggle.

Anyway.
I am working on a couple of side projects, TO BE ANNOUNCED, and here are a couple little teasers for you to peek at.

Also, just in case you were wondering.. The Kid Walks.

Sweet Cheeses it's a whole new ball game people! 
(Although I will happily admit that he is super content to walk lap after lap of the apartment, so it's not always a Looney Tune style chase scene over here)
