2/15 - another friend comes for a visit

Another one of Jim's friends stopped by today. She didn't tell me her name, but I gathered that she's on her way to Ghana to meet up with my World Vision sponsored child, Gnabiba. My new little purple friend wanted to stop and meet me before she went on to Gnabiba so that she could tell Gnabiba all about me. Pretty cool.

Jim requested that I take a "family" picture. So, from left to right, Mary Sue, Jim, Noni (Jim's on again off again girlfriend from New Year's), and Purple. Oh, and Louis is out in front.

It's amazing the creatures you meet when you have a little green alien as a houseguest.

2/13 - Jim comes back?

I want to apologize for not writing for a long time. With Jim's disappearance, my ability to chronicle daily life with an extra-terrestrial is severely inhibited. Or really not possible at all.

At long last, Jim has returned. He didn't say where he went, which allows us to speculate. He's a little different than he was when he left. His facial expression used to convey open warmth and affection, despite the red eyes, and now he mostly looks like he's plotting the end of human civilization as we know it. I commented on it, and he mumbled something under his breath about going to dark places and seeing dark things. Was he, perhaps, behind the bookcase as I'd expected, and run into some sinister dust bunnies? I'll never know. He's not saying. I'm, frankly, just glad he's back.

When Jim came back, he brought a friend with him. Her name is Mary Sue. She's very nice. Very huggy.

2/11 - Tequila

In Jim's absence, Louis the lizard offered to fill in. He's not quite as personable as Jim, but I appreciated the offer and so he's been traveling around with me for the past month.

It seems my life hasn't been quite so interesting since Jim disappeared. I haven't gone anywhere worthy of taking pictures.

This picture of Louis and I was taken at a great Mexican restaurant near where I live called Los Tapatios. Yum. They have really yummy margaritas. I may or may not have had two that night.
