have any of you ever see whogirl and hgar78's "man" in the same place at the same time?? -eek-

I have an announcement:
Turquoise Blue has gone missing. I suspect foul play. On Monday night me and T.blue(his new nickname) went out on the town. Actually we went to Best Buy, same difference. Anywho, when I got home I placed him on the wall unit next to his adoption card for the night. The next morning he was gone.
I called the police and they said I had to wait 24 hours. All that was left was the adoption sheet. I looked everywhere. I filed a report the next day. They have a suspect in custody now that they are grilling. I'm hoping against hope that t.blue is ok. He's so fragile, you know?
Here's the suspect:

My very own dog, maximus, a possible crayon napper. It hurts me so. I'll have pictures up of me and t.blue's last night together later today. I just, I just can't do it now. *sniff* :(

So are you gonna follow him around with a little baggie so that you can collect the evidence? ;)

Lateralus 08-27-03 11:56 AM

So how many is that now 3? 3 out of 100 gone forever! :(

Shocking pink is still safe, and pictures will come in the next couple days.

IdgIe49 08-27-03 12:10 PM

Lat, and 3, I believe are missing half of their head. ;)

I haven't had the heart to break the news to Spring Green yet. To think they were all one family a few weeks ago. Now three are dead.

A small, light body bag arrived from the post office.
No crayon, just a tattered envelope, an adoption certificate, and a tiny speck of *sob* orange blood.

:(

wonder where did they escape to?

he covers his tracks well. sneaky little bugger. no evidence has been found (at either end) I'm not giving up hope, T.blue will be found. hopefully clean and in one piece.

bfrank 08-27-03 03:08 PM

darkelf - I had the same problem. I got shutterfly.com which is free. If you dont wnat to got the hassle email them to me and I email you back the links

DarkElf 08-27-03 03:27 PM

Thanks to Brett, I can now (hopefully) present Wisteria.



Wisteria is VERY responsible. The first thing he did was pay his share of the rent. But I had to hold his checkbook for him, given that he has no arms.
http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/4...8f2d0000001610




Wisteria and I are still getting acquainted with each other, but he's apparently fascinated by this whole Mars thing. Here, Wisteria is gazing at Mars when it was at it's closest to Earth. Hey, it was REALLY close last night.
http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/4...0e540000001610




The best way to get to know someone is over a few drinks. Okay, so we had a few too many drinks...
http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/4...0e1a0000001610




Wisteria seems to really like SmallBall. Here, he is being my ass trainer ;) while I nurse my hangover.

Never knew Wisteria was a color.. always just thought of it as a restaurant.. http://www.wisteriahawaii.com/

DarkElf 08-27-03 05:24 PM

Wisteria is a vine with pretty clusters of purple flowers.

ChemDoc 08-28-03 08:59 PM

The mailbox just stood there gaping it's big empty mouth at me. No crayon #2 today. Maybe I'll get lucky tomorrow.

Why use PhotoShop with Paint does the job! :)

The other 3 are straight off the camera though...

As for your Mars pic, did YOUR crayon get to see Mars at it's closest? I think not! :p

Ok, after Razzmatazz's rough introduction to the family a couple of weeks ago, he has finally started to venture into the bowels of Southern California. No trip to California is complete without some evening rush hour traffic:

http://www.csupomona.edu/~clmartinell/traffic.jpg

We decided to bring home some dinner that defines Southern California, and can only be had here:

http://www.csupomona.edu/~clmartinell/innout1.jpg

Little Razz has a BIIIG appetite!

http://www.csupomona.edu/~clmartinell/innout2.jpg

More to come. I am doing field work in Burbank tomorrow, so maybe Razz will get to try on a nice orange vest and measure off some distances for me.

Tropicana: You work at UPS? I am so sorry. I know your pain.

Oh man, those are Animal Fries! They put a slice of cheese, some grilled onions, and some 1000 Island on them. I just found out about them a couple of months ago. Just say that you want your fries Animal Style. (You can get a burger Animal Style too... they grill the onions and add pickles to the burger)

RandyC 08-29-03 02:38 AM

Did I mention I don't normally eat fast food. :)

But that looks obscene. I think I will try it. :p

We stopped right in front of the capital, and took a quick picture. I think the State Trooper thought I was shooting the finger at him, because He chased us away.

Here comes Yellow-Green!

Yellow-Green and I get along famously.... here's why:


Yellow-Green loves classical music. Here, he tries to get an inside look at my violin:

http://wicca.drak.net/wiccanmuse/cra...olincrayon.jpg

...and an even closer look...

http://wicca.drak.net/wiccanmuse/cra...losecrayon.jpg

Yellow-Green had a lovely safari outing with Elly the Elephant:

http://wicca.drak.net/wiccanmuse/crayon/ellycrayon.jpg

He also loves the Patriots (and all Boston-area teams!):

http://wicca.drak.net/wiccanmuse/crayon/cheercrayon.jpg

Here, Yellow-Green poses with his favorite books:

http://wicca.drak.net/wiccanmuse/crayon/lotrcrayon.jpg

A nice earthy color, Yellow-Green was also quite at home on a witch's altar:

http://wicca.drak.net/wiccanmuse/cra...tchycrayon.jpg

...and last, but not least, a self-portrait, with Yellow-Green:

http://wicca.drak.net/wiccanmuse/cra...raitcrayon.jpg

I LIED! LAST BUT NOT LEAST IS JACKIE CHAN! MWAH HA HA!

Thanks Preacher! This is a blast!!!

Crayon #2(color) has ARRIVED!!!
 
The postman brought colored paraffin goodness to Adrian MI today. Crayon #2 has arrived.

For those of you who don't know, Crayola has introduced four new colors, but has not yet named them. They are running a contest on their website to give the 4 new crayons names.

Thus said, my adoption card is left blank. Crayola is not releasing my baby's name until some time in October, so I had to christen her myself.

She's a wily beauty, from first glance a rich burgundy. I felt I needed to learn more before I could give her an appropriate name. But, I decided that I would not give her a noogie just to see what she looked like on paper.

Gently rubbing her bottom with a scrap of vellum showed that she is actually very pink when she's laid out on paper.

So, until the Crayola gang make a decision, my baby #2 shall be named "Binkundy" in honor o her bichromatic nature. Binky, for short.

Binky is now resting comfortably after her long journey, but wants me to tell everyone that she is anxious to have her picture taken and shown to her siblings and their companions.

I'll retrieve my camera from the office tomorrow and get pics up very soon.

/me wants a crayon

*sad*

Preacher 08-29-03 10:45 PM

Some beautiful pictures by all. Working on a calculation of how far these crayons have traveled to get to their new homes. Will post once they have all arrived.

After Saturday's post/mail can everyone who has not received one yet send me an email? Want to keep track of which ones are taking how long. And who is still waiting.


Good Night.
