27O MONTHS


I have noticed that there have been many updates on blogs about babies lately. I thought that I would update about Janet's baby who will be 270 months old next week. He has been busy since the last update.

I don't know what was said in the last update, so I will just tell you what little Robert can do. He can run. He runs really far sometimes, but is only average speed as far as I can tell. He can jump. He can talk in full sentences. His art is not getting better, in fact, it is getting worse and worse each day. He can jump. He can skip [but doesn't], and crawl. He can sleep sitting up in a chair. He can sleep at a desk for hours without a break. He can close his eyes and touch his fingers together with incredible accuracy. He can balance on one leg for many seconds. He can dodge punches. He is only in the 5th percentile in weight and the 51st percentile in height. He can snap his fingers, and wink. He can say his alphabet and count until he died from it. He wakes up so rarely in the night that it must be under 1% of nights.




He can point to things too.

PHOTOSHOP


I think that Photoshop is a really cool program. I just need to have a few hundred dollars extra lying around for me to get it now.

LOAFERS



I have been getting a less than desirable response about my loafers from my coworkers. I want to submit it to a vote, you will be able to vote for a few things. The people I work with make fun of them, but they are so nice on my feet, and they are so much more comfortable than any dress shoes I have ever owned that I have considered buying another pair for my casual life. I have been meaning to take a photo when I was dressed like I do for work with my loafers on, but it is always too late by the time I remember.

I have been taking more photos than I usually do, and actually have founded a photography club. It was not my idea, but I supported it. Although I didn't think of myself as the leader of the club, it seemed that the other members thought I was the leader. I figured that if others thought I was the leader I would lead. That is the tale of how I became the leader of the photography club that is properly named "Photoclub". This is a photo I took at our first Photoclub activity [that only half of the four members showed up for]. We went to Liberty Park and walked around and watched people. A child threw Kix at me while I was reviewing some picutres. His mother approved.

NEW MOVE

I was just messing around and discovered that I can blast fire out of my foot. Check it out.


What can you do?

CIRCULAR

I am aware that today is April 1st (April Fool's). The following is true:
The first discovery:
I will not beat around the bush. I am a freak. For the second time in my life I have discovered that I am not normal. [The first time was when I discovered that my one ear had a hanging lobe while the other has an attached lobe.] I was sitting in my class trying make time go faster [with some success] and was just thinking about how the human body is incredible. I was checking mine out a bit, and started to look at my hands. I looked at some scars and was amazed. It was perplexing. A scar is almost like a photograph. After admiring some scars on my palms I noticed that the palm of my hand had ridges like my finger. I then began to wonder if I could be identified by the palm print of my hand like the fingerprints can be used to identify someone. It amazed me that the billions of people on our planet can have a unique print. I then began to gaze in awe at my fingerprints. This is where I am a freak. I discovered that 9 of 10 of my digits have the "loop" pattern, but on my right thumb I have the "whorl" pattern, ergo a freak.

Second discovery of the day:
After looking at my hands for 20 minutes or so, I started to look other places. I looked at my arms and as I laid my eyes on my left arm there was a champion hair that stuck out, way out farther than the other hairs on my arm. It was incredible. This hair is at least an inch long. I knew about another rogue hair that appears from time to time. The strange thing about these two hairs is that they are black, and coarse. I thought about pulling it out, but I decided to let it grow to see how long it can get. I tried to get a photo of it, but it is hard to get one of such a thing, and since I had to get a good amount of light on it for the photo to work it looks much more brown than in reality.



Third discovery:
As class had progressed from review to new material I lost interest in my strange hair and fingerprints. I began taking notes. In my notes I will sometimes circle things. The circles are never that good, but sometimes I get a cool looking circle. Today was my day apparently because about 10 minutes before class was out after a few discoveries it happened. I drew a circle that I found to be very incredible. This was not a circle that was very round, but I had drawn it so that there were no traces of where the line had started or where it ended. I have been telling people about this wonder circle and they wanted proof. It is in the photo below.
