Yesterday I got a birthday card from Todd's sister in the mail and another from Marlboro. In addition to the birthday greeting there was a coupon for $5 off a carton of Marlboros. No need to fear. Christopher and his friend ripped the card and the coupon from my hands and made a very dramatic point of ripping it all into tiny pieces and throwing it in the trash. They are drama queens I tell ya. Anyway, no smokes for me but damn that's frustrating to have a bad week, a very strong desire to smoke and some marketing bastards trying to lure you right back in. Thank God for kids who know better than we do sometimes.

Can I go back to bed?

Guitarist Mick Mars may have hobbled around the stage with a noticeable limp, the result of hip-replacement surgery last year, but his trademark guitar solos never missed the mark.

Yesterday justlisa.com turned six and no one brought cake. No one brought cake for my birthday either but we did have pizza and the company of good friends and family.

This is my friend Lisa and her new puppy.

He's so cute. And sharp little teeth as evidenced below. Todd always wanted his eyebrow pierced. ha!

Hard to believe Dozer used to be that small. Here he is almost four years ago when he was just a little guy. Puppies are just so sweet.
