The Post I Should've Written Yesterday

Allright. This was the post I was supposed to put up last night. But then the fish fiasco happened, and it took precedence over everything else. I do feel the need to clarify that I did not let Mr. Nibbles go down the garbage disposal just so I could have something to write about. (That was just a side benefit). I let him go down because I could not bring myself to pick up his slippery wet disgusting thin little body and feel it flopping against my hands. I'm telling you, even if I tried I would have panicked and dropped him, thus leaving Princess G to witness the slow death of her beloved Mr. Nibbles right there on our kitchen floor. So really, death by drain was the more humane choice, peeps. Do not judge me (even though I totally deserve it).

Back to business.

What I was going to write about last night was our trip to Disneyland this last Saturday. We had a blast. It was J's first time, and he loved it. Though you would never know this by looking at the pictures. What's up with his expression here?

And here?

And here as well?

By the way, Mr. C hates it when I put up pics that are not high quality. Apparently, it goes against his professional ethics. However, these grainy pics from his iPhone will have to suffice since we (smartly) chose not to drag around his multi-thousand dollar "my lens is bigger than your lens" camera.

Anyway, while the rest of the family may look back at these pictures in a few years and mistakenly think that we had to drag J around the park against his will, I myself will always have this one particular memory of his first trip to Disneyland: You know those trash cans that have the circle cut out to throw bottles and cups through? Yeah? Well I turned around in line for Nemo to find my son pressing his cheeks and mouth into said circle. For all I know he was running his tongue left, right, and around the inside of it. So I guess it goes without saying that I'm raising that kid. We all knew one when we were younger. At Roosevelt Elementary it was the little boy who drank out of a 3 day old rain puddle on a dare. I'm feeling compelled to look him up and see how he's faring today so that I can at least have a glimpse at what's in the cards for J.

Hope you all have a great day!
