octolilly [through the years]

It feels like I’ve been off the Internet/blogging/Facebook/Twitter forever.

We’ve been traveling back and forth to Baltimore, Maryland quite a bit lately (we’ve seen the Bergey’s and Tim & Dani and Steve & Cassidy three times within 7 days!) and I’ve just slowly slipped out of my online habits. I haven’t read my RSS feeds in forever and I have a lot to catch up on.

We attended a family reunion on Saturday but I had to leave after being there for 2 hours because I started wheezing and having trouble breathing. We discovered that the hosting family have 4 cats. So, we came home and 1/2 of the Bergey clan came with us and I finally remembered to take some pictures.

Here’s Steve, WoWing:

And Ben, WoWing:

And Tim playing with Drew and Dani taking pictures:

And this is a great video of Tim & Drew playing “boogah boogah”:

Also…I’ve been playing a lot of WoW too. It’s been dreamy. Except for conversations like these:

A handsome blood elf rushes up to me…astride a mount which makes me jealous for gold:

“HEY GUESS HOW OLD I AM?”

“Um. I don’t know. Why?”

“I AM NINE YEARS OLD. REALLY.”

“Wow. Well, congratulations on having a delicious mount.”

“I KNOW. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA. SO COOL!!L!L!L!”

“Right. Okay, I’m going to leave now.”

And then I went and cried because a nine year old is better than me at WoW.

Here’s a small glimpse of what’s been going on in my unexpected hiatus:

Up: Drew has been SO WIGGLY lately. He’s growing up so quickly. He is talking 90 mph, pretending all the time, and very much in a I-love-you-kiss-kiss stage. Which I’m fully enjoying since he may not be in this stage for very long.

Down: I watched Twilight. The books are an interesting enough story (although not the best writing, I’ll concede) but the movie was lackluster in many parts. I do like Jacob best though.

Up: We got the rest of the news about Ann Arbor and it’s official – it’s happening. I just don’t know when. We’ll move sometime this summer, probably.

Another Up: We bought much needed new tires for our car. I was wincing every time we drove – just imaging we were going to hydroplane in the rain.

That’s all for now. I have another bundly of writing goodness going on, about faith, but it takes serious concentration and I can’t write it while watching Dragon Tales. So, I’ll save that for another day.

Happy Tuesday and yay that I’m back online. INTERNET LOVE FTW.
