It was 2007...we were all messing around with stop motion and time-lapse photography, right? This, incidentally, might be the last time I ever held a paint brush. Guesting-starring my oldest child.

On Good and Bad Movies
I’m going to say something now that might blow your mind, so prepare yourself. I believe – I hold very strongly to be true – that, unlike steak, kisses, European countries, there’s no point in thinking of movies in terms of “good” or “bad”. OK, are we all still together? Let’s carry on. I’m not … Continue reading On Good and Bad Movies
Missing person…
We found them like this. Jordan did not eat the person who used to be in these shoes. She absolutely did not. Not even a nibble. Honest.

Video: The softer side of Jordan
Jordan, our little old pug/chihuahua cross, is...feisty. She doesn't like being in her harness for walks. She doesn't like anyone other than her immediate family around while she walks.
