He was so intent on learning. I think he's a little young to pick it up, but he sat with me at least half an hour trying.

Thanks for posting this amazing photograph.

Quality uncle.

So, are you two back then?

Helen stayed in the basement pretty much the entire time I was there. (I closed off the all the rooms upstairs so she could walk around, but I think my lumbering gait scared her.)

[fuzzyjay.livejournal.com]

She's not used to the lumbering, but I really stomp around (I'm very heavy of foot) so she's used to that.

We're still in Atlanta. I'm coming back today, and Paco and I are sharing the Atlanta-to-Chicago leg, but then we part. Paco is going to Iowa to work for a few days.

Thank you for taking care of Helen. (And for those who are wondering, Helen is a cat.)

I have a free pass to an advance screening of Over the Hedge tomorrow (Thurs) night, if you'd like to go.

It's at a theater out (way out) on Division, so I'll passing right by your area.

Yeah!

Let's go. I have a job interview Thursday afternoon at 2:30, but other than that, I'm free for the rest of the afternoon/evening.

Re: Yeah!

[iamthequarry.livejournal.com]

Awesome!

I'll call you tomorrow once I take my nap, and we can go from there.

Good luck with your interview.
Or Break a Leg.
Whichever is more appropriate.

Re: Yeah!

I meant I'll call you Thursday.
I've been operating on 'Wednesday' all day today for some reason.


Of course, by the time you read this it will be Wednesday, and this entire thing shall be moot.

what a wonderful picture...that's frame worthy!

[theoctothorpe.livejournal.com]

aaaw =)

So how are you guys doing in your new digs?

I was going to call you the other day, but got side-tracked.

[bearfuz.livejournal.com]

I wish I'd had an uncle like you when I was his age. I'd have probably come out *much* sooner.

(drool)

Thats so cute!

This must have been before your beard-shaping a few weeks ago, because I would be udderly envious of your facial regrowth then...

[fuzzyjay.livejournal.com]

Oh no, it's regrowth, bébé! Super-follicles I got. Except on top, of course.

[vernnyc.livejournal.com]

that's soooooo cute.

and kind of explains the yarnover thingy

[fingertrouble.livejournal.com]

Very cute and (probably slightly strangely) WOOF!

This is because I find this picture more masculine and more what a 'daddy' or 'bear' is about than a 1,000 dour leatherman or profile pictures...it's not about posturing for me, it's about caring and love.

(And paradoxically those who are not obsessed about being 'butch' and just are themselves come off the most natural, and masculine, at least for me...)

[bearfuz.livejournal.com]

Yeah, what *you* said.

[trulygrateful.livejournal.com]

Adorable - on so many levels!

What a positive role model you are for not only your nephew, but others.

You go, Jay!

XOXOXOXO
