and lo, the seventh seal was opened...

So, yeah, Bec says I have something up my sleeve... And I do, but that will be another fun-filled voyage for another day after Bec actually GETS what I'm working on over here. I'll let her fill you in on the details later. I can't say too much, but stay tuned for her September 10th blog entry! You see, as of September 9th, she is officialy ooooold.

So, how did my little gumshoe crack the case? Was it an illegal phone tap? A "sneak and peek" search warrant? An undiscovered detail in the zapruder film, perhaps? Nope, I just happened to leave my business card in my pants pocket, with a... wait for it.... WAIT FOR IT....

A PHONE NUMBER!

Yes, a PHONE NUMBER I wrote on the back of my own business card. With the mysterious letters 'KH' written with them. DUM DA DUM!!!
J.J. Abrams, eat your heart out, baby!

In her usual subtle way, she mentions these lurid details to me in passing . "Honey, who's KH, and how painfully do I need to kill her for having her number written on YOUR business card?"

Now, like a caged animal, my eyes dart around the room looking for exit. Hold up the kid as a human shield in self-defense? Nah, too squishy. Make a run for it over the bed and out the door? Nah, ceiling fan's running and will surely decapitate me, and 9-1-1 calls are where the fun officially stops, FYI. Jump out the window? Its only a two story fall! Ground's soft from all the rain. I could make it! Oh yeah, we got those damn mullions in the new windows. I'm trapped.

So I rely on my cat-like reflexes and smooth tongue to get me out of the jam. "Uhhhhhmm... I..... uh.... its... its not what it looks like? Yeah! Its NOT what it looks like!" I say, confident this will resolve the situation. bzzzt, wrong.

So, in an effort to stave off a replay of the spanish inquisition, I tell her I'm getting something cool for her birthday. A few of you loyal readers out there are in on it. Don't say anything, you fools! She's a crafty one, my wife is, and she will sniff the truth out of you.

O-oooh, here she comes
Watch out boy, she'll chew you up!!
O-oooh, here she comes
Shes a maneater!

Pretty cool. I like the song; does it really pertain to my sweet, Lutheran Pioneer, Special Education Teacher and great Mommy? Well, you see "all" her sides now. You figure her out.? We still like her. LOL (which I thought meant Lots of Luck.)
