it’s a double scarf day

Posted in the ones about hungryman, the ones about the cold on December 8, 2008 | 11 Comments »

I believe in the goodness of layers. Layers of color. Layers of cotton. Layers of wool. Layers of warmth.
The temperature has dropped about ten degrees below freezing and nearly fifty degrees below comfort. This means that a scarf is fixed permanently around my neck and another one is added anytime I’m required to confront the [...]

black out

Posted in the ones about friends, the ones about hungryman, the ones about merriment on August 8, 2008 | 6 Comments »

Remember when I told you about how HungryMan was flinging our friend, Johnny through the water like Indiana’s bull whip. I witnessed this harrowing event through the lens of our video camera. The jetski-dragging-tubing-fool footage has been hiding out our computer for weeks due to the very poor camera work (me).
What can I say? I [...]

his needs, her needs

HungryMan and I have been supporting Netflix since 2001. It single-handedly eliminated the video rental battles that were characteristic of movie dates in the early stages of our relationship.
Previous to 2001, we would arrive at the video store with a fairly good idea of what we were going to rent that night. However, once HungryMan [...]

if you give your daddy a mouse play ticket

Posted in the ones about ava, the ones about hungryman on July 30, 2008 | 6 Comments »

If you give a daddy a mouse play ticket, he’ll probably drive you to the theater. When he gets there he’ll see all the other mice and want you to look like a mouse too. So he’ll paint some whiskers on your face and help you make some ears.

If you glue fur on the ears, [...]

you can learn a lot from a dummy, buckle up

It should be apparent by this point in the life of this blog that safety is not high on the list of traits packed into one man known as HungryMan.
Whether it is sledding, log riding or jumping on a trampoline flinging his three-year-old girl like a ragdoll with a spring coil neck, my husband likes [...]

emergency vehicles call for emergency posts

Remember when little Rapunzel was locked in the bathroom tower?

Thankfully, the Great Knight was on hand to scale the ladder and rescue the frightened princess.
Today, the nefarious bathroom captured another young victim and there was no Great Knight or even a ladder to help the poor, distressed child.
So, I did what any good mama would [...]

his fresh caught fairy

Posted in the ones about ava, the ones about hungryman on May 26, 2008 | 12 Comments »

Here is some solid evidence that Ava’s daddy was indeed a part of the fairy festivities. He took the afternoon off a work so he could watch his little lady blow our four candles on a flower cake and run around in pink tulle and glitter wings.

He didn’t make it into the little birthday story [...]

epilogue

Posted in the ones about hungryman on April 24, 2008 | 10 Comments »

On Tuesday night after my long day on set I put my weary, happy self to bed. Right as my dreams were beginning to wisp over eyes, I was startled by a great deal of moaning in the kitchen.
Hungryman: Oh man, I’m starving. I need a hamburger. Ahh, I’m sooo hungry. [Opens and closes several [...]

extreme daddy

The following contains photographs of a potentially disturbing nature. Please be assured that no small children were seriously harmed during the taking of these photographs.
Here is HungryMan doing his pre-sledding warm-up, primarily comprised of decapitating today’s snowman.

Once properly stretched, he loaded the family in our car and drove to the hill of his sledding legends.
