Link-a-dink-a-doo...

... a Link-a dee, a Link-a doo.

No, I'm not losing my mind. Yet. Chicky Baby seems to be coming out of the haze of teething pain, but not before she had four full-blown tantrums in a one hour period yesterday. The first one started when I tried to pick her up because playgroup was over and we had overstayed our welcome. The last was in a parking lot as we were making our way to the car after deciding that the middle two tantrums were enough to call our park visit over. That one was a doozey. Limbs flailing, falling down onto the pavement, food and drink flying everywhere, screaming, crying... And Chicky Baby was worse. Oy.

I wanted to write something about this racket we call 'Fall in New England', and I will on Monday, but until I get back that important piece of my sanity stripped of me by pweshus wittle baby teefs I'll instead share with you some linky fun.

A-link-a-doo, a-link-a-dee

- Have you heard about those Daily Photo Projects circulating around YouTube? It's when someone takes a picture of themselves everyday for an extended period of time and then edits the pictures together, with accompanying music, to show how they changed. I personally could never commit to such a project because I have such a short attent... Ooh, shiny!
(psst, this one is a good one)

- Before Chicky (B.C.) Mr. C and I loved to travel. I'd spend hours surfing websites devoted to whatever destination we were headed to try to find out as much as I could about the place so I would be an informed traveler upon arriving. We don't travel as much now, but I can live vicariously through Destination 360. Wanna feel like you're in the Mayan ruins at Chichen Itza (or, as I like to call it, Chicken Pizza)? You can virtually be there with Destination 360's 360 degree viewer. I think this afternoon I'll spend some time in St. Martin. Or...

- ... I could spend some time trying to make a love connection with my Dead Celebrity Soulmate. The good (and obviously twisted) people at the Biography channel came up with a way to help you hook up with just the right Dead Celebrity for you. Later today Edgar Allen Poe and I are going to meet at a cemetery to do some graverubbings.

- Have you ever wondered how to get your kid to give up the pacifier? Over at Dog Gone Blog (I'm shameless, I know) a mom had a great and effective way to get her youngest son to let go of his 'noonie'.

I think before I head over to St. Martin I'll take a little jaunt to Italy. Have a great weekend. Ciao!

Hey, cool! Dead Celebrity Soulmate. I'm checkin' that one out.

Jess Riley said...

Okay, I had to come back to tell you I got Leonardo DaVinci and Van Gogh. LOL!!!

Alisyn said...

Dead Celebrity Soulmate! Brilliant!! Thanks...

Scribbit said...

I said "short and stylish" on hair and they gave me Leonardo with "Long and flowing!" I've been scammed!

Maybe I should have opted for "World Domination" instead of "writing" and "travel"

Christina said...

Damn, I knew I should have stayed away from those artist types. I got DaVinci, Poe, and Van Gogh.

moplans said...

love the links, thanks!

Creative-Type Dad said...

Wow! My dead celebrity soulmate is Grace Kelly. I'm just glad is wasn't Cher. (But I think the plastic is keeping her alive)

Well, have a wonderful time in St. Martin! Send many postcards with dirty jokes on them.

And WHO IS THAT GUY on the YouTube link? OMG, that was hilarious! I love the Glam Rock thing going on, too!

Amy said...

Errol Flynn, baby, Errol Flynn.

Oh my dear Jozet. It's Eddie Izzard, king of the overdone eyeliner. Ciao.

These tantrums! Where did they learn to lay out flat on the floor when they are pissed? I want to be able to do that. hang in there.

Debbie said...

best lines from that show: "cake or death"; "no flag, no country. ya can't have one. nyaahh"; "shag the queen"; "hey, look! a creeping kid! for our new film, 'the creeping kid'!"

I heart Eddie more than words can do it justice.

which is why I now love you even more than I did before today, if that's possible.

Cristina said...

Considering that we haven't had a vacation in YEARS, I think I'll check out that destination 360 site. We can always pretend we're vacationing, right? (God, that's sad.)

The Domesticator said...

OK...I did that Dead Celebrity thing, because I am sick that way. I got Van Gogh, Poe, and Davinci...hmm....maybe I attract dark, depressed men. Who knew?

Unknown said...

Ok first that photo project thing was so awesome! And my dead soul mate was Van Gogh. How sick!

Velma said...

I got Poe, Da Vinci & Van Gogh as well. "Cake or death?" is, scarily enough, one of the most common phrases my husband and I say to each other. We LOVE Eddie.

Hope the tantrums (and the teethies) are better!

kittenpie said...

Okay, Poe, Van Gogh, and... P.T. Barnum? How, um, odd!

Anonymous said...

Grace Kelly is my celeb match? I so did not see that coming.

Also, I am so in love with Eddie Izzard.

You are soooo my friend.

Chicky said...

Mmmm...LOVE Eddie Izzard. Death or Cake is frequently heard around here too...I also love James Mason as the voice of God.

...off to find my dead soulmate...

ms blue said...

I love the linkies! That Daily Photo Project is mind blowing. I couldn't imagine committing to that or being able to pose with the same expression for so many years.

Eddie Izzard made husband and I laugh. (Jesus tarted up a bit!... No muscles in their arms!...) hee hee

Major Bedhead said...

Oh god, I love Eddie Izzard. Love. Him.
