OK, I’m lame. I never even mentioned my incredibly awesome Father’s Day. It’s been a busy week. We’re going to Lake George for a couple days next week, which means I have to do double work every where to make sure I am not too sorely missed. Then we had a couple showings scheduled and the house was kind of a mess on a day I was home. And Noah’s been getting up at like 4 am every day, and I have been doing that thing where I can’t fall asleep at night so I’m really tired and cranky. Oh yeah, and Carol’s laptop had something like 1200 viruses, trojans, and other nasties that required several days of struggle resulting in a complete reformat.

And then, when I was finally going to write about my awesome Father’s Day, I got all distracted by big dick tequila. It happens.

So, in a pathetic attempt to make up for my negligence let me just mention that we had a lovely picnic at the Big Red Hook Park (Jake’s name for it – I don’t know what it’s really called, but it is big and it is in Red Hook, so…) and I got a supercool gift. Mommy helped Jake and Noah pick out a very nice Nikon digital camera for me that takes high quality pics, and it is relatively idiot-proof. I am just starting to play with my new toy.

That leads me to the second part of this post – justifying my double booty designation. I recently won the first ever caption over at Decapitating Shadows. A great honor and thrill. I received my prize last night and simply had to share – and I am now doing so with a picture taken with my awesome Father’s Day camera.

Let me say, this was a really cool prize package and I’m quite pleased. Thanks flygrrl!

Here’s the rundown of Booty 2 (as photographed by Booty 1):

• 1 completely wacky San Rio folded diner placemat type thing that is entirely unreadable to my hopelessly monolingual eyes. And it made Noah scream for Wow Wow Wubbzy! (though just about everything makes him scream for Wubbzy these days).
• 1 cool pink envelope that Noah already ‘addressed’ to someone, though I don’t know who. I am also not Baby-lingual – at least not in writing. But I pretty sure it’s going to someone in Scribble Town.
• 1 Sugar CD, Besides. Excellent collection of b-sides, alternative mixes and such from Bob Mould & co.
• I Bettie Serveert CD, Dust Bunnies. I love this album. I always really like Bettie Serveert. They had some great mid-90s indie rock.
• 1 Low Pop Suicide CD, The Death of Excellence. I used to play thse guys on the radio all the time but have never owned one of their records. Rock on!
• 3 pieces of yummy chocolate. Yes, only 2 are pictured because I needed one last night. And in the interest of full disclosure, the number of remaining chocolate squares has dwindled to 1 since the picture was taken. Yum. Yum. Yum.
