The week that was...

July 1 - 8, 2013
Project 52 (27/52)


It's been a "family" kinda week.  ALL the Things were home, and they brought our future Things-in-law with them.  We celebrated Independence Day kinda low-key.  Just a day at home bbq-ing with the Fam (which included my sis and HER fam).  The day was spent eating and laughing. The evening was spent drinking and making fun of Barry Manilow's apparently extensive plastic surgery while we watched "A Capitol Fourth" on PBS. Barry, Barry, Barry...back away from the Botox, fillers, make-up, and scalpels. He sang "Can't Smile Without You",  which was kinda ironic 'cause he literally couldn't crack a real smile!  God Bless America where we are free to sit in our family rooms and make fun of celebrities.  

Last week also happened to be my two year anniversary of "You'll Shoot Your Eye Out".  What to do, what to do?  Well here's a hint:





Stay tuned for more info on this tomorrow.  Hmm...all my photos this week will revolve around song titles.  

Happy birthday America.  It sure was a great week!

  7. Ya... Barry looks totally plasticized and has for years. A man his age needs wrinkles in order to look authentic.
