Happy, happy Friday! The other day K grabbed me and said “Mommy, Mommy, you have to come! Bumble and Slimey died and we’re having a funeral!” Apparently a poor bee and snail met an untimely demise (something about tripping and stepping – the details were fuzzy but they assured me it was all an accident). K and her friends had set up a little tombstone for each bug, and though it didn’t look like my illustration, that was what popped into my head. After an elaborate ceremony involving a plastic watering can, long drawn out and faux tear-filled soliloquies, we all intoned “We love you, Bumble and Slimey”. Then the kids scattered to go play. Ah, innocence.<\/p>\n

Yesterday I finally got a chance to start catching up on my hundreds and hundreds of blogs I normally browse — I’ve been feeling terribly neglectful of my favorite pastime. I know I’ve been a slacker commenter, and because I’m well aware of the effort it takes to leave even a few words (am I the only one who has trouble adding comments with an ipad? I usually have to try multiple times), I can’t thank you enough for leaving such wonderful comments here – and I also appreciate the folks who don’t comment but take the time to visit. Google Analytics tells me that we may be a smidgen above secret society status, though I’m wondering if that’s just spammers because I get a disturbing amount of those, particularly in Japanese. Anyway, spammer or no, thank you!<\/p>\n

I hope today’s been a lucky Friday for you and I wish you a lovely weekend, friends!<\/p>\n

Hasta la vista<\/em>
\n My schedule has been nuts-o<\/em>
\n I need to slow down*…<\/em><\/p>\n
