old school.

found a few gems i thought i'd share.

me, the baby and cara circa1989.

me & pops & his lenses.

this makes me think of one of my favorite sites...

dads are the original hipsters

*i cropped out his cigar

*and it's signed!!

slim also got the alligator records '40 years of blues cd'.

do good.

see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil.

do the evils have to be in any specific order?

i love my girlz & love this pic!

my own theory:

see the best in people

really listen to people, even if they aren't speaking

speak words of strength & kindness- be understanding.

good morning catamounts!!!

it's game day.

the western carolina mighty catamount footballers take on the

georgia tech bumble bees tonight.

i thought it was appropriate to have my morning joe w/ catamount pride.

GO CATS!

jim's mom has a great collection of childhood picture of jim & his sisters.
here's a few classic shots of slim.

this is usually what i see when i get home everyday,

-minus the cat + add the dogs.

what a cute little man! that belt really makes the outfit.

love the tutu.love the sandals.love the sibling love.

o amy.

i was so saddened to hear of amy winehouse's death.

she was a unique talent and it's a shame she's gone.

addiction is a scary, sad & lonely disease.

rest in peace, amy winehouse.

marietta square.

we spend a lot of time in and around the marietta square.

we love the marietta pizza company, the saturday a.m. farmer's market & the strand theater & all the little shops (some have pyrex every now & then!).

here's a few pics of the old square.

jim can seriously walk the track without falling off.

i fall off a lot, but i always get back on!

i love the lights that track the buildings.

aunt rhonda came to visit & we took her to the square.

sister love.

no respect.

just wanted to give a shout-out to the late, great rodney dangerfield.

back to school & easy money were some of our favorites when we were kids.

*yea- they were totally not kid movies, but we loved every inappropriate second of them.

"i met the surgeon general- he offered me a cigarette"

"i tell you, with my doctor, i don't get no respect.

i told him, "i've swallowed a bottle of sleeping pills".

he told me to have a few drinks and get some rest"

"my wife and i were happy for 20 years. then we met"

whole foods parking lot.
