My friends and family = wonderful
Dad and I were watching telly this afternoon, and a commercial came on for a compilation album of 70s rock - The Mamas & the Papas, Jefferson Airplane, Jimi Hendrix, all that good stuff. About halfway through the ad, Dad said, "The music they made back then was a lot better." When I told him that, on the whole, I agreed, he continued, "You know why? Because they had better drugs back then."
...This is the same dad who was a Naval officer for 22 years and who hardly ever even touches alcohol...the same dad who, when he heard "Another Postcard" for the first time, said, "They still do a lot of drugs up in Canada."
Anyway, that was not the point of this posting, just something humourous that happened before I managed to get online to show everyone I know just how fantasticly awesome bizarreoptimism is. Even though her birthday was a couple of weeks before mine and I'm still a long way from ready to send her gift to her, she sent me mine (with an apology for how long it took... no worries there, mate [rolls eyes at self]). Among other things, it included this:
Now, if that isn't the most adorable thing you've ever seen in your life, you must live on a bunny farm or something.
I was watching Colbert last night and realized that, as perfect as the littly guy* is, he was missing one thing. So, between me and the miniature Michaels Mum keeps in the guest room closet, I fixed the problem:
(I was talking about the glasses, by the way, not the book. I just thought the book would be an appropriate prop.)
And, you know, I actually did sleep better last night ^_^
* The Dogtor**, not Colbert.
** I am so sorry about that one, but it was unavoidable.
