Swine Flu!

Me: Paul I'm really concerned about swine flu.

Paul: Remember that time when you were really sick in high school and I'd only talk to you through the window?

Me: Yeah.

Paul: That's how it is now. We can only talk through the window.

Oh even better. So basically you won't event get within a towns distance of me.

I love you too.

That came across wrong. I didn't mean real window in NYC. I meant video chat on your screen. Sorry for the confusion.

I love Zooey Deschanel! She has the 40's kind of singing voice that makes me smile.

Disturbingly Awesome

This past weekend was glorious and summery. In celebration of the warm weather the gang and I headed out to the Chelsea art galleries. My favorite piece was a video installation by Adel Abdessemed. It was a short film of all these disgusting creatures (scorpions, snakes, pit bulls, spiders, fighting cocks and one toad) all in some sort of pit. Kinda like animal death match.

Ew. Did you have to post that? I can see where you and (e:Paul) share a common thread.

Easter Basket

Remember this:

?

Well turns out that I had to actually make my own Easter Basket. I was fine with this because it ensured that it turned out perfect. I also made Sarah one because she was Ms. Cranky Pants from having to work all weekend. After they were done my mom was so proud of me and remarked "Jessica you are just a kindergarden teacher waiting to happen!". I had never though of myself like this. She may be on to something..

Sarah's had the pink bunny, mine had the blue bunny.

I am still enjoying mine!

Mike- My Favorite Visco

A few days ago I picked up my mail (it's not something I do on a regular basis) and in the regular pile of bills and junk was a small package from Mike. I literally squealed in delight as I opened the package and saw what was inside:

Anything involving stickers I love

"Maxin' and relaxing thinking about my girl"

Sweet note from Mikey

Fuzzy pink Hello Kitty Diary with stickers AND glitter pen. Thankfully it's for ages 3 and up so it's safe for me to use.

THANK YOU MIKE I TOTES LOVE MY GIFT!!!

you're welcome!

Josh- I'm not sure how thinly that is even veiled.

It's all payback for when Paul told me he traded up for the new better model of Ho (Sarah). He will pay for the comment until the end of time.

I love how Jessica posts this both as a thank you to Mike and a thinly veiled slight to Paul. Why I enjoy that, I don't know.

hodown - 04/20/09 13:05
It's a lolipop and its the envelope. Don't hate because Mike is so awesome.

What is the girl with the face mask on the front of the box and why does she have a chord coming out of her.
