yup. still making mossariums. at just 4 inches high, it’s a cutesy and just the right size for decorating with a couple of snail shells odin and his cousin collected a few years ago.

271/365. maybe the beginning of a semi-occasional series on local murals. and more weird neuronal associations.
this one is on the side of our local community radio station, wdrt. some people come him the space cowboy. well, i don’t know if anybody else does but my brain does which then, for better or worse, cues “the joker” by steve miller band and the opening lyric ( more weird neuronal associations. maybe because it’s on the side of a radio station which makes me thing of song lyrics? ):
“Some people call me the space cowboy, yeah
Some call me the gangster of love
Some people call me Maurice
Cause I speak of the pompatus of love”
and today i learned steve miller made up the word pompatus after mishearing a vernon green lyric.
270/365. put some butter on it.
if i had a dollar for every time i looked at butter and thought of the the unlucky andersons “put some butter on it” SNL skit from 1985, I’D BE RICH! i have no idea why. it’s not even a good skit.
i’ve given up attempting to find explanation for my weird neuronal associations.
269/365. making more mossariums!
we enjoyed making the orb mossarium so much that we made more. this one is about 6 inches wide and a foot high. it has fancy top that’s not shown.
the sea urchin shells and moss came from our vacation in maine.
you, yes you, can make your very own mossarium by following the instructions on jessamyn’s mossarium emporium.
day 4102 – 267/365. i think odin is getting the hang of being goalie.
only his second game playing goalie and he played the whole game and stopped all the shots on goal which helped the team win 2-0!
after the game he got a lot of “great job!” and high fives from teammates which he appreciated.
266/365. ’tis the season for hockey rink setup.
a sign that fall will be soon upon us! getting the rink prepared for ice on october 26th. i’ve been helping for a few years and yet i always forget how much work it is.
laying down the cooling lines and setting up the boards while praying i’m not the guy who pinches a line and causes a leaker because i’m pretty sure the other guys who have been doing this since time began will mock me endlessly in a mostly good natured way.
265/365. a dicotyledonous angiosperm’s reticulated venation in colorful decay.
from the weird-brain-firings dept: i see the leaf and think of the words in the title of this post and then ponder how it might be a lyric in a “they might be giants” song in a parallel universe not very far from our own.
