Emery Harris Watkins

I realize that I have not yet posted a picture of Rob and Maren's first little cutie. He is such a good kid. I have not heard him cry at all really. He is about a month old now. If you want more details go to their blog.

Mario Kart on acid

Yes, those collars are popped people. You can only play Mario Kart so long before you get the hankerin to do the real thing. Lindsay found out that you get a free race on your birthday, so I went racing at this place on both my birthday and Rob's which are like a week apart. This place is literally about a mile away from our house, who knew.

Mario Kart Wii

Mario Kart Wii online informs me of something I have long known. Just read the top line and stop, that's what I did. (crying optional)

Sully the seagull

That's what we named this little trooper. As we at our lunch in the park across from my work. My coworker starting throwing scraps of food to the seagulls. This little guy was more aggressive than the others, so Zach (my coworker) decide to encourage his gluttony. He threw him an entire drumstick and much too our surprise he didn't just pick the remaining meat off the bone, he swallowed the entire bone whole. Insatiable as ever, he demanded more. This picture was taken after he ate two drumsticks whole (look at the bulge in his neck). He was able to gag down a third but I couldn't get a picture before he flew off feeling, no doubt, a little queasy. I tried to look up online to see if he would be okay so I could quell the fears of animal lovers, but then I realized I don't much care, it was his own greed that caused him what I imagine to be immense discomfort.
