I finally got ahold of a digital camera!

And believe me, I took advantage of it. So be prepared. I'm about to bore you to death with all the things I've talked about that I only wish you could have seen... So, here we go...

Here is my ROCK.

Wait for it - wait for it -

BAMMM!

Now THAT'S awesome.

Okay, here is my alligator. Didn't know I had one, did you?

Well, I do. Please don't be jealous.

Okay. Here are my No Parking signs.... How BIG and WHITE and RED with SLASHY P THINGY does something have to be?? Oh, and those are my vicious guard dogs...

Now tell me, with a face like that - would YOU park here??

Lucky shot - He must have been bite'n his lip, 'cause Oz don't growl.

Ah yes. Here is Chauncey, the little bastard (a.k.a. Papa Q). Almost didn't recognize him without a thorn bush on top of him, did ya?

Call him old and asthmatic, but don't you dare call him sterile. After two years of shoot'n blanks, Papa Q and Mama Q just popped out two more...

Ahhh, aint they just the cutest!

Note Ozzy Osborne raising holy hell in the background. He was particularly happy about the kitties.

And here is the little prince himself, Q (shown here with camera flash eyes.) Could his whiskers be ANY longer?

And Bubby Jack...

And Oz striking a pose...

My roses...

Our goldfish...

the Shabumkin...

And the pond they live in...

Please ignore the hose... Hey! There's your rock Vicki! See it? The big pretty gray one on top... Yup, that's Vicki's rock.

Wait! There's more...

Please remember, our yard is very itty bitty. So the pond is most definately, the main event. Thus, many, many redundant pictures - but each special in their own way...

We also have an inside to our house. Yup. There are fish in there too. Here is Panama the Oscar with the twice broken jaw (she likes to ram her head into the side of the tank). Q, of course, sizing her up, wondering if he can swallow her whole even though she's bigger than his whole head...

Actually, after further review, it kinda looks like both fish might be eyeing Q up... mmm tasty kitty....
Here Panama is with her little friend, Jack Dempsey.

Mean fish... very. very. mean. But cute! Very. very. cute.

Here is the lamp that we suspect the ghost broke. That or a gang of cats took it down.

Also shown is one very dusty, very jealous PS2... Seems the Xbox is getting a wee bit more attention lately.

And finally, here is our really cool science lamp thingy. It even... you got it... dances to sound.

OOOOooooh! What will they think of next?

Well, that's it. I hope you enjoyed finally seeing all the things I'm sure you lost sleep over wondering what they looked like.
