i lied.

ok...remember when i said i'd stewed the last of the tomatoes? well, i was lying. i went down to the garden yesterday (since it was nearly 70 degrees out) and harvested the remaining green ones. afterwards, i uprooted the withering plants and found a home in the basement for the cages.

looks like they'll be more stewin' to do.

i might fry some green ones up, though...yum.

sometimes my cat thinks she's a model.

the fate of the tomatoes.

before:



after:




so earlier-than-usual fall temperatures ( along with a later planting) conspired to thwart our tomatoes this year, so a delayed harvest forced me to bring a bunch of green tomatoes inside to ripen on our radiator (see "before" pic). and ripen they did, amazingly, and i stewed the lot of them today ("after"). they are heading for the freezer packed tightly in gladware. all is right with the world.

in other news, my dearie has left for a long tripventure and i hope to use this solo time as an opportunity to catch up on some meaningful blogging (which doesn't usually get done when i'm busy spending time with my favorite person in the world).

right now, however, i am tired. i drove b to the airport at 7am and have been stewing and such since then...i'm gonna nap.

otis = family

here is a sweet video that joe has been working on for a long while...enjoy it!

have you seen this man?

hi.

i'm in another show and we open tomorrow night!

please come and see!

is this your car?

it IS?!?!?














are you ok?

really.

are you?







please contact me if you need to...ummm...get a cup of coffee...chat...anything.

anything at all.

come see!

omg, dudes...i am forever apologizing on my blog! is there anything sadder?

don't answer that.

instead, think about all that wasted time i used to spend surfing the net! now that i'm away from my daily dose of computer, i have fallen almost completely out of touch with online gossip, news items and youtube shenanigans...mon dieu!

in lieu of those things, i've been busy teaching toddlers how to transition. free play to art project, art project to the gym, the gym to snack time, snack time to story time, story time to circle time...it's been a great couple of weeks getting settled into a new groove, it's sort of different everyday and i'm liking that a bunch.

right now, i'm watching "the lake house." i'm watching this movie because i'm in it. well, not me moving around or anything, but a picture of me is in it...throwing man-made snowballs around with sandy bullock. ha! (p.s. she was nice.)

also, "roustabout: the great circus train wreck!" has been extended for a couple of weeks and if you've not seen it, i encourage you to do so...i love doing it and i think it shows.

and after that, come see sketchcore do another radical show. we're calling it "deep inside your box" and we'll be performing at the apollo studio theater starting october 21st (saturdays at 10:30). please come. i guarantee you another great time.















an addendum:

here is a pic of the tv which is playing the movie that i'm in a picture in. can you find me?
