The Flickr White House photostream and other things I'm presently enamored of
I'm completely captivated by The Official White House Photostream - especially as this photo appears to be President Obama fist-bumping my Uncle B! There are dozens of terrific photos in the stream and I love the shots of movement behind the scenes.
I'm also busy pondering/imagining/contemplating lots of other things....
Middle requires a backpack for his new laptop (Happy Impending Graduation, Middle!) and camera equipment. As you no doubt know, from previous posts, Middle enjoys the hunt. So, will it be this one?
Because, if it IS this one, we have to do something about that label.
Glasses. Have been thinking about glasses. Need to walk down the street and look at some.
I'm totally talking through my hat? Out my hat? How does that go? Anyway - I would absolutely love to ditch our dining room table and get something narrower. I like our table just fine but it's a little wobbly, kind of munged up and is slightly ungainly. I'd get this one, which extends to seat 8 (I think) and open up some space in the room. Of course, I have no business doing this. Hence the hat.
Especially in light of this -
Our dear friend W is going to be married here. I think we need to plan a trip to a place we might never have considered visiting. Imagine.
Hey, it's Cinco De Mayo. Pass me a Corona.

And I have always heard it as "talking out your/my ASS", but then my people are not known for elegance and refinement.
Do you have Dania? Our neighbors have a fantastic expandable dining room table from there that I am currently coveting.
I love your posts.

Oh, and Badger, Dos Equis Amber, seriously? Try Bohemia or Negra Modelo. Bohemia is made by the same company that makes Dos Equis and Negra Modelo is made by the same company that makes Corona. Why drink a beer that you have to fix - slice of lemon or lime and salt? I'm just saying. And, yes, I was a bartender. That's how I put myself through college.
And I happened to be in Tuvalu once for Cinco de Mayo. The fun! I was trying to go for Mexican food that night (I am a FAN of) but who was I kidding! Couldn't go anywhere. And BOY was there a lot of beer that night...we had a burger instead...

Thank you for that.
Happy belated CINCO!
Damn.
I'm also thinking about graduation presents. The cap and gown came home today. I nearly cried.
And why are you messing with beer? Just skip to the tequila. Don Julio at the very minimum, no salt or lime.
You would like New Orleans. Casually avoid Bourbon Street, and you'll find it is much more interesting. The people are the best.
