all access, backstage pass

so, a client told me today that as a therapist i get an all access, backstage pass to the freak show. and sometimes that is soooo true!!

btw, even though i've seemingly been ignoring my blog, i have been thinking of it. it's the thought that counts right?! i want to blog. i swear i do. i've thought of deleting it many times but can never do it because i think blogs are awesome and i like the idea that it's there if i need/want it. i couldn't get rid of it without replacing it with something as wonderful and exciting...sounds a bit dependent, eh? oh well. i can live with that.

and thank you all for sticking with me even when i wasn't there for you.

christmas 2010

this is some evidence of the events surrounding december 25, 2010...


our christmas tree


table set for a traditional christmas dinner and games with some friends of ours. not that it's so martha stewart or anything but i just love holiday table settings!


santa stopped by our house on christmas eve!


mamma was overwhelmed by all the plastic she could chew. she's like an addict when it comes to chewing plastic. i'll even wake up in the middle of the night to her gnawing on a plastic bag. she gets crazy eyes and just can't help herself. poor girl.


my parent's cat, kc (short for kitty cat). she's a chubby bubby like mamma is!


the parentals.


the hubs and i.


hanging out around the tree in st. george...waiting patiently for the festivities to begin!


krista and zachary.


jeremy and daniel.

sorry, no pics from brandon's family party on christmas eve or brandon's trip to the dunes that day. apparently it was covered in snow, which is rare. i mean usually there will be snow just not that much. anyways, christmas day we went to st. george and had a christmas dinner with my side of the fam. complete with searching for the christmas pickle ornament, which jeremy found! it was quite the competition. then we played games (my favorite part!). the next day we went to mesquite!!!! oh, how i love to play blackjack! it's seriously one of my favorite things. i just can't seem to get enough...talk about addiction! speaking of which, we are going to wendover this weekend so i can play more!!!

moose knuckle

by definition a "Moose Knuckle" is the male version of "camel toe". Where said male's pants are so tight and/or transparent, the shape/details of their anatomy are clearly visible even through the garment, resembling the appearance of a moose's lower ankle (or "knuckle").

why am i blogging about this you say?! well, today i noticed a client's moose knuckle and it severely grossed me out. i wondered, to myself of course, if it was called camel toe or had it's own special name. thanks to google, i now know. btw, i got a good chuckle from the things that popped up when i searched "moose knuckle," especially the image section. oh my! not for the faint of heart!!

p.s. in the interest of staying out of trouble, i want you all to know that i copied the definition from the online urban dictionary!
