The more you know.

Boo and Darren came for a visit a few weeks ago. It was a trying couple of days, and we learned many hard lessons.

Like, it is difficult to see a statue of Terry Fox and not make fun of him just a little bit even though you know he did great things and was a warrior etc etc etc, because he always looks a bit...off. No? Or, like, it is difficult to understand signs sometimes. What exactly about this is wrong?


Or, it is difficult to see a pirate-y ship and not go over to investigate, and having investigated, not to make incessant 'arrrrrrrr' sounds and keep 'avast'ing each other. Also, it is difficult (unless you are facing the camera directly, as Exhibit Boo) to make your shin look like it has vanished and like you are in fact peg-legged. Instead, you will just look storky (see: Exhibit Me).

Also, it is difficult to fit entirely behind a pole. They are not precisely body-shaped.



Also, it is difficult to put one over on the bunns. They know when you have food you're not sharing.



Also, it is difficult (when the bunns are under your sway) not to try to make them do tricks...


Or to lure them into your lap...



Or to try to please every bunn at once.



Also, it is difficult to make fake-hair look like real-hair. Even improbable chest hair.



Also, it is difficult to stand near my sister without snorgling her.

I look like a watermelon in every picture we took in front of your house. I guess it makes up for you look like a rectangle in our kitchen picture? Either way I think we make good pirates.

And I am the whitest sister of all.

Also - my word verification this time is "clumes". Clam plumes?
