They do have some crazyass big cockroaches (yeah yeah palmetto, whatever) bugs down there. *shudders at the memory of that rainy night in the motor home*

CONGRATULATIONS (shouted quietly while snoopy dancing) on that year for Jax... I wanna know what the tats are. Did you get it on your butt? ;) Is it a peace sign? ROFL... Maybe a little lightning bolt in honor of that time you trimmed the tree with the lights on it since it is so close to the holidays? Ooh I'm feeling like such a wiseass tonight.

My Dad has often mentioned a desire to visit Florida, for the purpose of seeing the everglades before they dry up and blow away. It's never had a pull on me. Maybe because I grew up on a beautiful coast with no bugs and fresh sea air, and I've always loved getting away to the mountains. There aren't any real mountains in Fla are there?

I'm figuring that by 2018 TheBigAssRoachBugs will be up around your area along with the Leprosy afflicted Armadillos (Armadilloes?)we have here now. You'll enjoy the fire ants when they get there, too.

I've only been to Orlando for the Disney World adventure. I remember how awful the mosquitoes were there. Yup, I'd rather have Cleveland any ole' day; as well as where I live now.

A big congratulations to Jackson on his continued recovery. Yay!

Glad you guys got the tatoos finally--cool.

I don't do tatts, myself.

Raining here.

um.... now I'm worried if I don't take my son to a tattoo parlor at 13 (which is a year away) that there might be a dark abyss in his future.... I'm really going ot have to consider this deeply.

Or not,

Congrats to Jackson on his sobriety, and to his parents on making it, too.

As a Florida native (close enough), I can unequivocally (i can't spell today and i'm not looking up the fucking word to see if I got it right) that they are COCKROACHES. Fuck that palmetto bug bullshit.

And, didja know we have flying cockroaches, too? Now THOSE freak me the fuck out. (grammar queens, sue me)

The weather here sucks today, et tu?
