September 13th, 2006In a classic children’s story, Little Red Riding Hood notes what big ears the wolf has, what big eyes and what big teeth.
The wolf replies that these are all the better to hear miss Riding Hood with, see her with and eat her with.
If Little Red Riding Hood were to come visit me at three o’ clock in the afternoon she’d probably—after seeing me chained to the computer clad only in sports bra and booty shorts, a trashy gossip blog displayed in my browser— exclaim, “My how unemployed you still are!”
And I’d say, “All the better to entertain you with my dear.”
Because that’s what I’ve been doing these past few days.
Maaa’s in from Alaska and the two of us have been playing O-Town tourist. Today we head out to the theme parks for three exciting days—one at Epcot, two at Universal Studios.
Yes, dear hannihaus readers, me and Maaa are about to have more fun than you can shake a stick at.
… And that’s probably a lot.
I can’t be certain though, as I’m not exactly sure what constitutes “more fun than you can shake a stick at.”
You see, I’m no expert on the fun-stick threshold.
My experience with sticks involves burning them in campfires—oh and one time someone accused me of having one stuck up my butt.
But I digress …

Monday Maaa and I went to a beautiful botanical garden. I found myself strangely fascinated by the grapefruit grove. I’d never seen anything like it. The low-hanging fleshy orbs were all very large—especially when compared to the fleshy orbs I’m used to seeing every day, re: the ones that don’t fill a b-cup.

I’ve had confirmation from my gays in Houston that your new place is a half hour from them.

I love grapefruit, although those look like they need to ripen up a bit. Sounds like you’re making the best out of your unemployment. Excellent!

wanna spice things up? you can TOTALLY sneak into epcot if you park by the boardwalk, take the boat over, and right before the ‘gate’ is a back entrance/employee break area… very close to land of imagination. or france. one of those.
but then again, you’re still a FL resident, so admission will be a little cheaper. but then again again… you can’t leave florida without sneaking into epcot at least ONCE. or having a drink in each of teh countries. ahhh… the memories. or lack thereof, I should say?
off to check out your fruits.

You currently have my dream job.
Are you allowed to pick the grapefruit? Or would you get in serious shit from the grapefruit police?

You had better enjoy those grapefruit trees while you can. They don’t grow in The Woodlands. They don’t like winter freezes. Come to think of it, neither do I.

Hanni,
Glad to see you back to bloggin’. Thought you had jumped ship there for a bit. Hope all is going well and keep diggin’ the grapefruit, nature’s mos’ perfect food!

If you haven’t hit Epcot yet one thing you can do that was always a tradition here is drinking around the world. Go to each country and have one or two drinks and keep moving. Word to the wise - beeeware the sake! As soon as I get the scanner working I’ll be forwarding the Cats of Corruption Pics!

I’ll see you your grapefruits and barely B’s and raise you some tangelos and barely A’s. Enjoy your Maaa and enjoy your “time off”. While it might seem unfortunate now, you’ll look back on it fondly when you only have time to get your celebrity gossip online.

so when’s the move to Houston?
September 19th, 2006
I miss! you, H. And I love! Botanical Gardens, of any shape, size, and variety. Chris and I traipsed around one in Alabama, and I’ve been to one in D.C., too. I wanted to pitch a tent in the rainforest part of both of them. But, apparently, they frown on that sort of squatting. Pity.

Am I the only one who laughed out loud because KerriAnne talked about “pitching a tent”? Surely I am not the only one with the sense of humor of an 11yo boy?
