thanksgiving and the scattered pages... o my!!
well kids- the f*!#ing holidays are here... time to order my book for your friends that love (and need to love) poetry... ask me how to order more than one to save a bundle of cash. they're on sale with more than one book. you'd be suprised. contact me. don't be shy.
in the meantime... here's more pictures for you to enjoy.
manchester the cat with his big, bad sinus infection.
my family has a great sense of humour.
my nephew ian will break your heart in 20 years.
later on, i went to go see the scattered pages with my best friend.
the show was at mcelroy's irish pub.
my dad came to town from south carolina- soon to be a north carolinian.
...and here's the lead singer for the scattered pages, brandon (known as
the brandonian amongst certain people...)
and this is andy, the drummer/weird instruments/guitarist. i didn't get
a picture with kurt.
hello friend!
now listen up!!!!!!!
y'all think i'm crazy... well, my brother mike is a spaz. look for the reoccurring
"middle finger" theme my brother has plagued me with.
middle fingers.
see the middle finger again?
middle finger again.
but sometimes mike can be normal. sometimes.
see?
we are, however, brothers. just look.
dorks.
shout at the devil.
toddicus and morgan, brandon's girlfriend. nice gloves babe.
toddicus and mary.
mary and the dunhill guitar.
andy from the scattered pages made it.
i almost forgot this one... remember, i'm the youngest in this family.
what a gorgeous night. the leaves are finally turning and falling down here in texas.
the more i drank, the funnier this became.
fake owls are used to keep the pigeons away.
lost its head!!! o my!!!
toddicus and the "new" erica.
toddicus and beth- the absinthe babe.
um... what?
dancing.
"it's a nice night out. i'm glad that i came."
until next time lovers...

birthdays are messy
well kids, michelle just celebrated her birthday.
enjoy our pictures, debauchery, and embarrassment.
jesus michelle! look at all those candles!! (see that guy in the chair? there's
more to that story coming up!)
and we're in a historical building, la carafe. it was our bakery in the 1800's
and many other things as time went on. now it's a beer and wine bar,
cash only please.
see brandon and michelle dancing? la carafe is one of the few buildings
in houston recognized by the city of houston as being haunted.
yes, there's a moose head. probably been around for decades. beth says
he's got "nose rot."
william showed up to the party... michelle is happy. brandon and i are
equal so far with the drinks. (when i drink that vein pops out in my forehead.)
william's wife kim (blonde) shows up and morgan (brandon's girlfriend)
is thrilled. shit, we were all thrilled. kim's as crazy as i am. so's morgan for
that matter.
still sober.
the whole gang.
so... remember that guy i told you about in the chair next to michelle in the
first picture? well, we didn't know him, nor his little friend that showed up. but
they sure joined our party like they'd known us for centuries.
"hi! i'm a fucking dork moving in on your party! and this chick is a girl i went to highschool
with and just ran into tonight for the first time and she's married. look how cool i am!"
i just keep talking and talking and talking and you guys don't even give
two shits about me!! and even though i'm married and was hitting on the
blonde dork who keeps hitting on the birthday girl (what's her name?) i know
that everyone here thinks i'm the life of the party. i'm so cool!
awwww... dancing!!
not a ghost... many many candles. this is actually quite small
compared to how large it gets before they start over.
it'll be the cover of our album (if ever) but meanwhile,
check out brandon's band the scattered pages. brilliant.
ok, we lost our cool.
something in the houston press pissed me off, but i don't remember
what it was.
OH MY GOD it's my birthday.
michelle (heterosexual) gets a spanking from beth (total lesbian)
look at brandon's girlfriend in the background. ha!
i think i've had enough.
michelle has some trouble getting out of my car. hey! some of your presents are
there on the ground babe.
come on michelle, get out of the yard.
come on, girlfriend. you can do it! (look at finnegan watching michelle.
he's like, "and this is the hand that feeds me.")
goodbye everyone. tell your
friends to visit my website
and share our embarrassment.
goodnight and thank you.

election, selection, correction.
hey ohio!! you're killing us!
toddicus on election night... still hopeful!
bush is gonna getcha!!!
toddicus and daniel... might as well smile- it's between a douche
and a turd sandwich anyway... (thanks south park)
every night is a good night with red wine!
on halloween i was a russian soldier... appropriate? you decide.
i actually had people ask me if i wanted a military discount. really.
this is the famous tremont hotel on galveston island where the mardi gras
poster contest was held today (nov 7th).
i was a judge in the competition for this year's design!! it was a true honor, and
z krewe chose me because i sell vintage posters from europe!
here's the magnificent interior of the tremont...
...and your poet in the washroom.
this is nancy manlove and me in front of the winning poster... which we
can't reveal until january 15th, 2005. i smeared them myself.
i'm good at smearing.
and me and donna... the gorgeous gal that suggested me as a judge.
went to the beach on the way home... what's the temperature where you live...?
can you see the carnival cruise ship leaving port? freaked me out too.
and last but not least...
i got a freakin' flat tire from the cool temperature drop... i actually went to
add air to the tire and the hose i was using wasn't turned on and i lost almost
all the air from my tire! then... the fix-a-flat was so old the foam all leaked out the side.
DAMMIT!!!
i thought it looked like puke... let's just say that i got the tire reinflated (strangely, but
that's another story) and i was off...
xoxoxoxoxo love to all xoxoxoxoxox
