here's my flickr stream for visual updates

I heard this song on the radio on the big island in Hawaii. I usually hate talk radio and most other kinds of radio, too, but even the commercials make me happy in Hawaii. the djs are so stoked to be on the radio and listening to everyone talking pidgen and laughing at everything then playing groovy sing a long songs is just so sweet. i'm pretty sure the djs are stoned out of their gourds based on the fact that everything is funny to them, they keep forgetting what they were going to say and how worked up they get when they are talking about food.

a friend sent me a link to hear the humpback whales singing live in Hawaii. An hour later, I had bought a plane ticket.

Here is that dangerous and expensive link:

I went diving and got to hear their songs pulsing through me every time I held my breath. There are worse things to die for than a whale song pulsing through your body.

We stayed in a soulless hotel full of Japanese tourists called the hapuna prince beach hotel. I take back what I said before about loving all Japanese tourists. I only like the wacky japanese girl kind. not the serious business man kind. i got real interested in what 'resort casual' vs 'resort formal' attire looks like and got off on scoring as much free neutrogena shampoo and conditioner as possible. then i went on a tour of the fancy hotel next door and felt real ghetto. they serve l'occitane products at the mauna kea.

after I stole all of the cutlery and 10% real kona coffee I could find (much to Joseph's embarrassment),
we got our 5* botox look on.

The next day, I decided it was also time for some new makeout pictures.

Joseph was so serious when I first met him.

Look at what has become of him.

He has been badly infected.

shame about how my camera turns everything pink

i do abuse it like noone's business.

but still.

i got busted looking at the camera instead of kissing joseph for real.

my birthday party this year is going to be at out n about treehouses. If I didn't remember to invite you, or I don't know you, you should crash it! May 22 - 25.

I am having a parade for my birthday. It's something I've always wanted.

Parade's on the 24th. Bring enough glitter and wigs for yourself and a friend.

Joseph used to have a pretty good tarzan yell when he was a puppy. it's still pretty good.

now you try!
