Me: Pinched arm and said to Ollie "I'm getting kinda chunky" and made a sad face.
Oliver: Epic jumped from one couch to the next with a giant smile on his face and then shouted "I'm a FLYING chunky!"

Sasquatch
We are going to Sasquatch in just a few days! Here are some songs I really hope to hear while we're there (In case you were curious) A few of the bands I didn't really know of until Josh bought the tickets and I've enjoyed getting to know all of the music in preparation :) A lot are bands that I've loved for awhile. It's a nice mix of both. There's even a few comedians mixed in that I hope we get to see. And Josh get's to see his celebrity crush on stage.
I'm really looking forward to people watching too. It's going to be great to get away for a few days with people I love. I'm as much excited about the experience as the music. Anyway, I've been excited for three months and the day is almost here that we get to go on our adventure. I've tried really hard not to be too obnoxious about it but I can't really contain my excitement.

30 Things I Like--May Edition
1-Walks
2-The fact that all of our flowers and lawn aren't dead yet
3-The way Oliver pronounces l's...yions instead of lions
4-Going computer free once in awhile
5-Sasquatch!
6-Shaved Ice
7-Reading books to Oliver
8-new Arcade Fire coming soon
9-reading books in the back yard

My love affair with Lost
You may be wondering why I haven't written in awhile. It is mainly because right now I'm a little obsessed with catching up on LOST.
When I was younger, I never really paid much attention to tv shows. The only shows I really watched were on Nickelodeon or I Love Lucy. Nickelodeon had these awesome shows that involved slime, and is there really anything more compelling than slime? I think not.
90210? Never watched. ER? Nope. Friends? Uh uh. Ok, I did watch Tiny Toons and a lot of kid shows. I just never really got into watching shows that were full blown pop culture events. Maybe episodes here and there, but never really sat down to watch a show at a certain time on a certain night of the week. Wonder Years was pretty awesome though.
I think netflix has awoken the latent tv junkie in my soul. It makes it so damn easy to watch hours and hours of television! (and there's Hulu too!) It's like I'm making up for all of that lost time now. I think the fact that we have unlimited instant netflix + small entertainment budget + a little one that makes it difficult to go out on certain occasions makes it really easy for me to become addicted.
Anyway, I started watching Lost last winter and I'm now only 4 episodes behind. I've made it some kind of goal to catch up so I can watch the series finale with everyone else. I want to take a break from it because I'm not especially crazy about where they've taken the story, but I can't "give up" now. I am too emotionally invested in fictional character's lives :) There are some pretty amazing elements to this story, but I confess I'm a little disappointed after investing so much time that things are turning out how they are. I think I've watched at most 7 episodes in one day (at about 45 minutes each)
Sometimes I feel like I'm not being a good mother when I have my face glued to the television. So when this show is done, I am gonna cool it on the tv for awhile. It's been fun while it's lasted though :)
