Freak is Wrong 

Yesterday (Sunday) morning Carrie & I worked on cleaning up the house but good. I was about to clean the barbeque when Nicole stopped by with the class sample for Braided Wire Cuff as well as some oral explanation of the drawings she drew for her handout. I then spent the next couple of hours creating the handout, transforming her admittedly awful drawings into illustration gold.

It took me a slight bit longer than I thought, so that Michael actually showed up for practice before I left to install the handout on Missa's 'puter. When I got back Geoff had already arrived as well! Soon we were joined by two other people: Kevin & Travis, a sketch comedy team ("Scarecrow & Mr. Vote") who are going to do a Co-Show with Fools Play this coming Saturday! W00t! It should be really good; the two mesh really well with our style and caught on quickly to what we were all abouts. Michael met them via the Scarecrow Video people.

While practice was going on, Carrie commenced much food preparation. She made potato salad, cornbread muffins, and slathered a slab of ribs with a dry rub and started the barbeque (which she unfortunately had had to clean due to my over-involvement with the class handout). She also made a bowl of strawberries & blueberries, and that was when she discovered Freak and Son. Who is Freak? Who is Freak's Son? This is Freak & Son:


Freak is a giant mutant strawberry (I tossed down a dime for size comparison) or perhaps several strawberries that grew together. Freak's son is a smaller version of its father. Freak is wrong.

Anyway, shortly after practice ended Viki came by and dropped off the boys. I entertained Julian by allowing him to play Kirby Canvas Curse. We ate ribs and watched The Apprentice and then watched a good bit of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets before Mark picked them back up.

Why were the boys over at my house? Because last night was the big Fashion Show that I'd been working on for untold hours over the last two months. I create the entire booklet for the show and don't even get to go. Now, I ask you, is that right? Is it wrong? Well, Freak is wrong.

After the kids were picked up I cleaned up after them a little bit before Carrie came home.
