Shiny shiny

So the general consensus was that the pervs like to collect belly pictures in addition to boob and butt pictures. I have made my Flickr baby set private, viewable only to friends and family. I do, however, have a pretty wide definition of friends and family. So if you are sad the belly pics are now hidden and you are not a perv, drop me a line (lizworking at the place where gmail lives) and I will help you out. The belly, by the way, is now getting bigger by the minute. I'm at that annoying stage where things have stopped fitting but I am so not motivated to buy new clothes for a couple weeks' (!) wear. Lucky for me, the universe is kind sometimes and I have been gifted or loaned a whole pile of maternity shirts to get me through this last month (!!) or so.

My parents recently gave me a whole pile of stuff I'd asked them to save from when I was younger. I'm not sure what exactly I thought I'd do with all this junk down the line, but I remember being fervent in my desire that my old stuffed animals and random knickknacks not be thrown away, but packed up for posterity. I was sure they would be welcomed with open arms by an adult me, who would be unable to wait to bestow these gifts upon my own children. So now that I am almost a parent (!!!), they decided now would be the time to purge their basement of all these things and drop them off at my house before I could decide otherwise. Long story short, I now have a basement full of ca-rap. Okay, some of it is admittedly fun, like the box of Barbies, complete with very 80s outfits. Lots of shiny tops and off-the-shoulder shirts and wristbands with tassels.

As I've mentioned, Max likes to bring us little presents in the middle of the night, or have them waiting for us when we get home from work. Apparently he got himself into the Barbie box, because this was the outfit waiting for us when we woke up the other morning:

Obviously, he didn't arrange it quite this way, but his intent was clear. I like that he went for only the one legwarmer look. Very avant-garde.

I found some more shirts while I was unpacking the other day--they're a little nicer than the other ones I gave you. If you feel like you need some more to get you through the next month I will make sure to get them to you!

This post about Max bringing you the barbie outfit. How funny. I laughed outloud for like 10 seconds. Good times.

over the last year my parents have showed up at my house multiple times with boxes of old me. It's all stuff that I had forgotten about and now that I have it, I am powerless to dispose of it myself. Example: Broken Sculptures I made in High School or a High School Varsity Jacket.

what the hell am i to do with this stuff????
