A Post That Is Not About That Thing

So much ugly in the world right now.

So much.

I'm pretty much at the point where I want to crawl under a rock and not hear anything about anybody from that town that is a bit east of Pittsburgh for a veeeeeeeerrrrrrry long time. I have my opinions and you have your opinions and we all agree that the whole thing shouldn't have ever happened in the first place and . . . yeah. I'm so over it. Really. I can't take much more.

So . . . uh . . . SQUIRREL!

(If you don't get that, I weep for you. WEEP. FOR. YOU. Go find Up! and watch it right this second.)

How about I just shut up and counter all the ugly with a little bit of cute? Alexis and I had so much fun putting life on hold for a bit while we stomped around a playground the other day that we decided to do it again.

SQUIRREL!

Why, yes, the sunglasses are bigger than her head. I think that's why she likes them.

Can we talk about how those shorts were too big at the beginning of the summer? How about how they now look like they were painted on the kid? I probably should have stashed them in the "too small" clothes pile weeks ago, but who would have thought we'd have a shorts and flip-flops sort of day in November? Not me. Oh, and who told the kid she was allowed to have legs THAT long? Gah! It looks like she's sporting Daisy Dukes, but really she just has legs that go on for miles.

Static electricity makes the kid happy. It's a fact.

It's too bad the kid is always so miserable. 

Gimme your SQUIRREL! stuff, folks. I need some more happy distracting things until the whole Ugly Thing blows over a bit.
