So, Late in the day on Saturday, just an hour before I was to leave for the Detroit santarchy, I sliced open my thumb on a sharp piece of plastic. After four hours in the ER I really wasn't in the mood to try and find my crew. Damn.

March 19th, however, will be a different story. BUNNYARCHY! Hordes of deranged easter rabbits will descend upon downtown in a rampage more ungodly than a gaggle of santas. (Last year was great)

That's okay. The birdie't not really a drinker--she gave herself alcohal poisening over the weekend.

For which she wins the Stuart "Amature!" award.

She's waiting for the trifecta of Armature and Arm Chair awards.

Is there such a thing? Did she do that just to make people laugh when I go into the store and ask for one?

Gotta find a toy goat ... sheeesh.

I think those fine folks at Beanie did a zodiac series. You don't have to tell her that the toy goat is actually a capricorn.

Maybe last Friday's discussion got them sentimental about thier toys and they are all working on themselves with joy and dedication.

<smooth segue>

I went into the local toy emporium and found out that they are now making a waterproof (bathtub) fishy. Yum, yum.
