Let her eat cakes

It's been awhile, but then again, you can't blog if you have nothing to talk about, However the Lord has made a way of escape and I'm going to France for Christmas. For two months I expect severe brainwashing in the ways of hot chocolate and the metric system. I will try my best to keep an international outlook on things but pray for me to keep the faith and don't be altogether surprised if I come back with breakfast habits like this.

An emo post

I was musing the other day on how much time, money, and self obsession it takes to be an emo. Have you ever seen a poor emo? NO! because it takes 40 euros every time you want to buy that new green day or tokio hotel shirt and it takes an even greater expense in time thinking all about yourself and your trival problems for hours on end. Its not often you see a working class person from a third world contry wearing eyeliner down to their nose and sulking in a corner. Why? Because they know that as bad off as they have it, there is always someone who has it worse and they're too busy working to help keep their family alive and succeed in life. So maybe the next time an emo starts to feel sorry for herself/himself because they haven't met Bill Kaulitz, Billie Joe Armstrong, or whatever other billy bumfuckers there are out there: they should stop to think what are they doing to make the world a better place other than making the above artists millionaries and sending the eyeliner market on an all-time soar

Xd weapon of brotherhood

Our home takes everything to the extreme, even the weapon of brotherhood. Angie had been noticing I was having a hard time relating to the fully functional members of our home by not having things to complain about like communal JJts, diapers, kitchen prep, giving kids spankings etc. So Angie, being the disciple she is she decided something must be done about this cruel seclusion, hence the breaking of her foot. Now we bond over itches, jelly muscles, the inability of our casts to commit for more than 6 weeks, and how we complete each other's eating abilities.  




















 oh and getting sloshed has become far more hazardous

24/7

24/7 has become the new motto for the Fontanars Fiesta. Four consecutive days of parties till 6 in the morning wasn't enough for us and we decided to outdo the natives with our own housewarming party for all the brethren in Spain. After many promises of mountains of brownies ( which turned out more like chocolate cake thanks to Gabi's Spanish cooking skills ), about half the brethren came to eat our undercooked chicken and (once properly drunk enough) groove out to "Lady in Red".

She had it coming

Well after a month of complaining to God about how utterly uninteresting life had become since moving to "Poco Loco"( the affectionate, pet name given to our thriving, metropolitan, commercial, centre ) something finally happened. As God often does with long, crooked nosed, stubborn mumurers he gave them their request but not the form they wanted it in. Well I broke my arm and have repented of my murmuring since all activities that were being participated in before this point have come to a standstill and I have resigned to reading science books on a mass scale and going on long evening walks with the kids to develop my shepherding skills and to keep mind and left arm occupied. I must run now but I'm having an operation tomorrow to put pins in my arm so please pray for the doctor as he informed me that I would be his guinea pig since this is the first time he is performing this type of operation.



P.S. Children ( and midlife crisis daredevils ) do as your parents or your wife tells you to and wear head/body gear when rollerblading. A helmet and arm pads are far less painful to your pride then a broken bone is to your body.

Hitler will be missed

A sad, sorry day it was when we waved goodbye to Melody and her sometimes self-inflicted mustache; but not without a single and final memorial to her eccentric self. Welcome to " Eccentric Night" where the only rules were "if Melody would wear it, then its legal."

They believed they could fly

"Dying with dignity" is not a phrase know to Spanish chickens. Since the poor dears aren't alive and squawking anymore and therefore can't protest theirs rights , I thought I'd give them a little helping hand to insure that Spain imports some more Romanian workers to make them a little more presentable for our Sunday roast.
