Do this in memory of Hobson

April 5th, 2007 · 7 Comments

Because everything is closed on Easter weekend in New Zealand, and I mean everything (even the bars), we’re having a party. And, today Rich was pushed (or maybe pulled, he can be stubborn) out of his mother. The miracle of life!

If I were to describe Rich in one verb, it would be “to drink.” For example, tonight he will drink a half dozen bottles of wine, a dozen beers and a liter of vodka. And he’ll live.

After all, he’s English.

This afternoon I offered him a shot of tequila. He refused (stubborn). “I dont want to,” he claimed.

I pushed him down the slide. We took our first shot at twelve, and subsequently our second and third shots of tequila during lunch. He had fun!

Then I fell asleep while he cleaned and decorated for the party.

The themes for the party are bunnies1, zombies2 and scrubs3. You can see a picture of Rich in scrubs here. Sadly, I suspect this will be my last party at Hobson house. She treated me well, she did!

1. After all, it’s Easter.
2. After all, it’s Easter, please have a sense of humor.
3. Rich doesn’t want to be a bunny or zombie, but a doctor instead.

    Will do! That suit feels like breakfast. It looks like something for Halloween…

    Steve’s mom made me taste these bacon rolls the other day, that some friend of hers makes. They’re like regular rolls, only stuffed with bacon and then baked. I took an obligatory “thank you taste” (that’s what my mom calls it at her preschool), but I felt my arteries clogging even from that small bite.

    I like how you fell asleep while Rich got ready for the party. Oh, Jeffrey.

    Jeff also fell asleep during the party would you believe…

    Mmm, bacon rolls. :)

    Me falling asleep was funny. Rich was livid! And then (thanks Chris) I fell asleep for two hours during the party. I blame the tequila.

    Yes, you slept. Sleep is our friend after all.

    After your mid-party-nap you were very entertaining. I am just glad that you came back to play some more with the bunnies, zombies, surgeons and me ….. the nurse!
