Sick Dogs
Internet – we are sick. Sick, sick doggies. Joe is horking up things from his chest that no one, NO ONE should hear or see. Poor puppy, it’s not his fault. But, still! Stop horking! I seem to be a couple of days behind him, so I guess I better be nice so when I have disgusting matter oozing out my orifices he’ll be nice to me. Wow, that got gross fast. I’ll see you in a minute when you come back from honoring the porcelain king.
There I go. Talking about puke. Still gross. Like being twelve years old and just learning what 69 means. I can’t stop talking about it. I better go to bed, now, and hope that tomorrow is mucus-free.
(sorry)
Two Things
Kate from BitchBuzz.com interviewed me and you can read it here. You can also see the picture of me singing Karaoke there.
Prescott, AZ post up at Reboot.
SIX DAYS!
Ohmygodyouguys! Our house is a DISASTER area. We’ve gutted every room and strewn the entrails around all the floors. It’s become an obstacle course. We’ve learned new dance steps to get from room to room.
Things I’ve Learned About Stuff
1. When I can’t find something, I go out and buy another one. This results in about 20 tubes of white acrylic paint, triple versions of every watercolor pencil and five staplers.
2. If you have boxes in the garage that you have moved four times and never opened, you probably don’t need that stuff.
3. 34 EXTRA pairs of shoes is too many. If ALL your shoes but one pair hurt your feet after 5 minutes, you might want to just have one pair of shoes.
4. If the kids say they don’t want anything saved from their room, they don’t want anything from their room. Unless they do. Then, save that stuff. Or don’t and feel like a heel.
Internet! Only SIX DAYS until we shove off!
Take care, my friends. When the new Reboot site is ready, I hope you’ll come along with us as we travel.

Eco-Friendly Driving
I’m collecting ideas on how to be eco-conscious while driving around the country. Our van is not a small, fuel efficient vehicle and if we had the means to do it, we’d probably trade it in. Although, the van affords us space to sleep if we want/need to for a few nights here and there.
Besides trying to conserve gas by not speeding and not running the AC (easy since it’s winter right now), getting out to eat instead of idling at the drive-thru, recycling all our trash and using our own containers for water and coffee when we stop – what are we missing?
Other things we’re trying to do – not buy any consumer plastic crap goods, only buy things for give-aways that are handmade by local vendors, take fast showers and wear everything twice to save on laundry washing impact.
Please leave your ideas in the comments. We’d like to do everything we can to offset our impact on the environment.
Stimulating Conversation and Some Photos
Joe – I’m turning it off.
Leah – I guess we’ll never know what a Pelican Brief is now.
Joe – I guess not.
Leah – It could be a whole bunch of pelicans, like a whole passel of them.
Joe – And they are wearing briefs.
Leah – And then they fly into the Senate building and tell all the senators that if they don’t dance RIGHT NOW they are going to take off their briefs!! So, the senators all start doing this jig…….
Joe – …..
Leah – It stopped being funny about 30 seconds ago, huh?
And here are some pretty photos from our drive leaving Santa Cruz going to Moorpark.
Plus a sunset photo at Reboot.
