What I Did the Last Few Days

• Took care of kids with weird infections.
• Spent way too much time in doctor's offices.
• Became grandmother to a hamster named Naomi.
• Went to an amusement park where half the roller coasters were not working....
• ...so I got hoisted up in the air 15 stories before getting dropped on a cable so I could do the most awesome jungle vine swing ever.
• Did NOT break any bones...just to calm the nerves of those who worry about my bodily integrity being maintained when I indulge my thrill-seeking side.
• Discovered my camera is now completely unusable after months of it being incredibly temperamental.
• Ran away from home.
• Ate Thai food, Italian food, and ice cream.
• Played with Sweet Pea and her mommy.
• Explored a groovy bookstore.
• Bid a sad farewell to my grandfish Nigel (after less than a week of his membership in our family)...may he rest in peace in Potty Heaven. 
• Enjoyed the smell of recently fertilized fields (fertilized with good, organic cow manure...Yeah, I like that smell.  I'm not alone in that.  Trust me.)
• Walked around my favorite farmer's market.  (Really, check it out.  It's a a place for all sorts of oddities, human and otherwise.)
• Stayed up late.
• Slept late.
• Visited my own mommy.
• Used her superior technology to scan a bunch of slides from Trinidad and Bolivia.

So there's lots of blog fodder in the past weekend and hopefully I can get around to churning out some posts sooner rather than later.
