Last look in nonna's hand mirror
Category: cleaning
I went on another throw out rampage yesterday. I got rid of so much stuff. I am really not a horder but I held onto Nonna's mirror way past its usefulness. It had smashed so many times. The one side just gave out and lost the glass but I always felt bad throwing it out as it was a reminder of her. I decided that I needed to just let go, so I took some pictures of it and said goodbye. In a way its sad because I would see it each morning in the bathroom and think about her. Maybe I should just print the photo and hang it up in there.

When my grandfather dies, I want a poster that they had in their cupboard all my life on how to do the Heimlich Maneuver. It is so out of date and strange to want but it will always make me think of my Grammy.

That's really sweet, Paul. I still have my grandmother's car visor mirror in my truck. It's moved from vehicle to vehicle with me over the years.

Basra The Dirty Tortoise
Category: pets
He is so filthy from digging in mud. I think he likes it for the humidity at night but its got to suck being that dirty and gritty afterwards. His face was so covered in dry caked on mud.

kissing your own ass
Category: shopping
I found some clothes at H&M. Every time I think its a bad idea and I still come back for some reason. Hopefully I can at least wear these clothes once unlike the last batch where I foolishly assumed all colors of the same exact design and size by tag, fit the same

Octopus at Kostas
Category: lunch
Kostas still remains one of the few places where I know I can get octopus. I think its probably my favorite food. Does anyone know of any other restaurants?

Kuni's has octopus there. I can't remember if it was a regular menu item or a special though

Busy boy basra
Category: pets
B is gone and Basra has to dig his own holes. Who knew he could dig like this? I mean he dug a small tunnel in 2006 but this is full on brick moving and mountain building. He seriously must be bored or angry now that he can't rape all day.
