quack.

i had big plans today friends
big plans
oh good ones
a good post
full of ideas
& what i'm working on
& my trip to the farmers market
where i ran into a friend that i was a camp counselor with
(hi lisa!)
& about how i went to a few yard sales
by myself
& found a treasure or two
& how our beloved ducks are playing tonight
at autzen stadium
(where it never rains)
& how it's the first game of the season
& how they are playing the huskies
(& how by total coincidence
i am making a quilt for my dear friend's baby who shall arrive soon
& how my friend
(let's call her dawn
cause that's her name)
already has four girls
& now she's having a boy
& her husband is so over the moon about it
that he made the nursery into a football field
with a big giant W
for washington huskies
on the wall...
& how the quilt is husky colors
& has a big W on it
& wondering if i should feel guilty
that as i am sewing i am chanting
'lose. lose. lose.'?
after the game i promise i will only chant nice things
like
'love.
joy.
peanut m&m's.
the new season of the office starts on september 25.'
you know
things that sooth babies
& how none of this would even be relevant if
we were playing ucla or someone like that...
of course the larger question is:
is it even relevant today?)
& how we have season tix
& how we sold said tix to tonight's game
(by the way when we refer to them
in real life
we always say tickets
because we are not cool enough to pull off saying tix
but i thought that typing tix would be a nice time saver
here on the blog...
cause i'm always here when you need to save time
or was that i'm always here when you need to waste time
either way
i'm always here
that is the magic of the internet
thank you al gore)
anyway
we are not going to the game
& brian is shooting a wedding
& i am doing what i always do
hanging out with the kids
& making stuff
& complaining...
(hey, i don't make the rules...)
anyway
so, too bad i'm not going to tell you about
all of that stuff
but i will tell you
that we are rooting for our duckies
no matter where we are
no matter what we are doing
no matter how cute we are
& there are a few of us
who are just too cute for words...

:)

ps we have no idea who #12 is or was
but apparently they were popular to some family
whose garage sale i went to...
& yes Q is wearing his shirt backwards
because he is cool enough to pull it off...
