Vacation <3

Calvin takes his big brother role seriously - and obviously doesn't want Graham to be left out of anything.

My sister just posted this pic - and it's definitely one to be framed! #nephewlove

Calvin and I could almost be the same person #samelikes #targetpopcornisdelicious #targetslushiesarealsodeliciois

They started off as bare, 1pt each, weight watchers chicken strips...and then I got ahold of them. #dinnertonightlunchtomorrow #friedchicken

Someone thinks all my hard work this morning in my nephews' room was done specifically for her...

Panda researchers in China wear panda costumes to give mother-like feeling to a lonely baby panda who lost her mother [x]

Is panda carrier a job? Because I want that job. I’ll wear the suit, seriously.

Sometimes, Sassy likes to rock out looking like a haphazardly discarded stuffed animal. #roughlife #prettykitty #highmaintenance

Sasszilla thinks she's helping me research my work project...by staring at me incessantly. #notreallyhelping

Because I (can't believe) I haven't done it yet - here's an outside picture of my #newhouse !

The Problem with Miley

One side of the argument is that "it's the VMAs!  Outrageous shit happens here all the time!  Madonna!  Madonna and Britney!  She's just living up to the hype!"

But the other side of the argument, outside of the fact that her entire performance was appalling, is the simple fact that there are ways to be a compelling, artist that matters in this industry without parading yourself about in a degrading fashion. 

People with high self esteem do not put on a display - if that's what you can even call it - on national television.

They also don't pierce their face, light things on fire in driveways, and shave half their head (Amanda Bynes).

They also don't shave their entire head and then get parental conservatorship over their actions, belongings, and money (Britney Spears). 

Miley Cyrus actually has talent - but no one would know that based on recent events - and that's what makes the entire episode sad.

Being A Good Neighbor Has Limits

I was totally ok with sucking it up and mowing the grass behind my privacy fence. Or, I was ok with it until I saw a squirrel head without a body. It was game over after that.

Sassy is ready to snuggle with Grammy Deedle tonight!
