Want to know what’s so amazing about these pictures? It’s this! Korben is sitting! For minutes and minutes at a time! He sat for a good five minutes or so while I took all these pictures without tipping over. What an amazing thing! … uh oh! Starting to get tired! … Scenes like this are...

Yum Dave says that last picture is what grilling will be like in heaven. Except maybe an angel will be doing the grilling, and it probably will not be gas grilling and instead be something more awesome than our dream grill. (Yes, we’re charcoal grillers, not gas — though Dave could probably very easily be...

Goin' to get new keys

We’ve had a dead car in our driveway for five months. Thankfully, we don’t owe anything on it, so we weren’t making payments on a dead car. We own that dead car. But it’s dead. And it’s a car. And it was in the driveway. For five months. It died the night I gave birth...

Jen K. - My Oldsmobile had different keys for the doors/trunk and ignition. It was not all that bad. I hope you get your car back and sold soon!May 26, 2009 – 5:38 pm

Beaver - Eli called me one day during March 2008, stranded up at the law school because the key wouldn’t turn in the ignition to the Saturn (2000 SL). We had to have it towed and they took apart the steering column to “fix” it. Now it works, but the alarm doesn’t sound when the keys are in the ignition or when the lights are on, and the the light doesn’t come on when the driver side door opens–all stemming from that ignition problem, and all contributing to my woes during this pregnancy. We like Saturns, but…we’ll be getting something else next time?

Saturns are supposed to be relatively easy to re-sell, so good luck and I hope that goes well!May 29, 2009 – 5:44 pm

Jennifer - This one’s a 2000 LS. Ended up a $500 repair.May 30, 2009 – 12:05 pm

On Saturday, we loaded up the van and headed up the highway to my folks’ place. It’s a lovely drive. Since my birthday, I always have the camera with me. You never know when you’re going to see something interesting. Yes, that is a golden lab in a trailer pulled by a motorcycle driving down...

Ice Cream and K-baby
