I needed to post this photo

December 19th, 2006 | by Vinny |


There are a number of reasons this photo needed posting:

  1. There is a wacky weather pattern in the Northeastern US, and it is not any season here. If I can’t ski, at least I can recall the summer.
  2. I’m printing out photo’s to send family at holiday time, and this one made the list.
  3. Skippy and Wanda have been going out of their way (it seems) to make us all CRAZY, and I thought if I went to my happy place it might keep me from killing them both.
  4. If not, this would be a good “when they were happy” photo to put on NBC News before they show my mugshot.

The good news is I was so busy at the dentist tonight I ran out of time to kill them. They’ve earned a reprieve, courtesy of a soon-to-be-pulled tooth. They missed out on tree trimming because they were determined to make sure no one was in a holiday mood, but they get to die another day.

Where exactly does one get coal during the winter? Where exactly does one get coal ever?

    Sure… NOW they look adorable.

    Actually they always LOOK adorable. It’s when you get to know them that they make you crazy.

    Well, they don’t make YOU crazy- they reserve that for their parents, when you in the outside world are not around.

    Say- could I use ANOTHER ellipsis… or word in all CAPS- or a dash in this comment?

    In retrospect, Skippy and Wanda are pretty good kids. I wouldn’t trade them for some of the others I’ve met.
