in late 2006, relocated my angst, business, and social life to NoCal from SoCal ... just a 40-something chick in the 'burbs of the SF bay area who randomly posts about random topics ... the occasional quirky stories of dating (or not) at 40-ish, work-week cubeopolis frivolity, rambling musings on nostalgika, and the occasional introspective moments in life.(thanks for visiting! >p, b)
stick me! happy b-day l'il nephew


happy b-day! ... my l'il nephew turned 10 yrs old last week.
back in april, he told me what he wanted for his b-day. and meanwhile, he wouldn't let me play with his nintendo ds (but that's another story).
eventually, i coaxed him into letting me draw some pics on his nintendo ds (hoping i could run away with his nintendo without doing him bodily harm play one of his games) - and i ended up just drawing a kinda 
shitty but amusing 'knock-off' of a gary larson panel (stick figures playing volleyball).
nephew laughed and THEN nephew had many other ideas of other sports-related concepts. those sports? ...
memorialized right then and there ...
as a good tía, i obeyed nephew's wishes, and despite my limited "artistic" abilities, part of my b-day gift to nephew was a pad of paper with the opening page of the larson volleyball knock-off.
and after this pic ... i've yet to finish up nine more stick-figure, sports-related, body-part injury pics. some of the sketches to date ... 
so many reasons why i love my nephew!!!

would it be safe to say you two share the same sense of humor?
simply put - INDEED!!! (kinda cool for a 10-yr old kid, eh? ... errr? uh, well, y'know what i mean?) btw, my niece thinks it's funny, also!
So do I......and I love homemade b-day cards......
