I don't know what it is about this picture I like so much. Maybe someone else can tell me.

Catch up on this past week:
Went home for Leif's birthday (see below), and had a pretty good week. I slept a lot, I went to Disney Quest (horrah!), spent $30 on tea, and saved a baby shark. I'm not lying, I saved a baby shark.

I went to the beach yesterday and I was just watching the waves when this little shark washed up. I watched it for a minute hoping it would go back in, but it didn't, and I started panicking, so I walked up to the dunes and grabbed a bottle (covered in barnacles) and a piece of driftwood, and returned to the tiny thing- maybe a foot and a half long- and started to roll him back to the water. Everytime we got close a ways out, the waves would wash him back up. I looked down the beach and the only other person around was a fisherman quite a ways off (who would likely think me crazy), so I ran to the parking lot and hopped in my car and drove to the guard shack, where there was, of course, no guard. I sat there for a minute hoping one would come back, and called David who, the voice of reason said "don't you have a yoga mat in your trunk?" Ah-ha....
U-turned at NASA and went back, parked, sprinted to the spot I'd been at and.... no shark. I am choosing to believe that I had pushed it sufficiently far out and it did manage to get back out to sea.
Doing more research, I've found that the pup was a spinner shark, which are pretty neat as far as sharks go, and this is about the time of year spinners reproduce along the Florida coast....
I realize ten people have been bitten in New Smyrna this past week, but damnit, go ecosystem!
Also, I really need to start carrying my pocket camera more often. Not that I could make this shit up if I tried.

Lastly, I bought honey from an old man on the side of the highway, and it is delicious.
Also, Forgetting Sarah Marshall is a good movie.
Fin.

Leif, on his tenth birthday

The last picture is admittedly grainy, and I realize I'm biased, but I sort of like it. Good?
