In the news today

On the battle front, we have laid siege to the tricupboard. Or more specifically to the space behind the tricupboard. Someone tell CNN: The Siege of the Tricupboard has begun.

The grey thing on the left is the human mouse house, the Vector cereal box is our baited trap (where violent death lurks within) and they are butted against the radiator and the tricupboard on the right. On the other side of the cupboard is another violent death trap. And so now we wait.

If he does evade the traps (as we suspect he will) Brian has concocted an epic trap.

Concept is that the mouse will follow the trail of PB up the stairs on to th toilet paper roll which will then roll and dump him into the water. Wet dead mouse. If it doesn't work we will blame James who thought it up and if it does then I think Brian will take the credit. Lesson: patent your wild fantastical traps before you tell anyone about them.

The Trap Fantastic.

Away from the frontlines now. We walked the whole 4 blocks to Granville Market this past weekend. (Why we don't go everyday is beyond me) And got sucked into a street performer. Literally. I turned my back for 2 seconds to get a rolling pin and when I came back I witnessed said street performer strip off Brian's shirt. And then mock him for having his manties showing above his pants. Sigh. Brian naked in public AND not at the track! So I did what any good wife would do. Took pictures.

There is also some other exciting news but the pictures are on Brian's phone so I'll let him download them and post them later. It's big. Don't change that blog, CNN, I mean TTP will be right back.

And we're back (like we never left really) with our last piece of news: The Reveal!

Before:


I HAD hair to partway down my back. But usually pulled it back anyways.

After:



Yup! All gone. Surprise! It was totally weird to wash it this morning. There's no hair!
