vampire daddy

A friend took this shot of me biting my daughter's hand at a picnic. You see, at home, we don't like to use the paddle when kids behave badly; that's so 1950's. Here, she swiped the cap right off my head and refused to let it go. So I bit her.

.

Lest you begin accusing me of being too harsh, let me say something in my defense. Do you know how many times she swiped my cap after that? A bunch of times, actually. She is just a twisted little nut and that's all there is to it. But that's not my point.

.

(My original point was supposed to be that my friend can go to picasa.google.com and use that to edit and store photos.)

Never bite the hand that will feed you in your retirement

Did I miss the picture somewhere? Maybe the two "L" lama ate it? Or was that the one "L" lama? Which one is which again?

Hey, Craver, thanks for that link. I need to get on the ball and store my photos. I already lost some just by adding another log in on my computer!

The pic didnt' come up on my computer. Oh well, I really don't care to see needless blood shed anyhow, being a pacifist and all.

Heyyyyyy! Who took my picture?! Nuts! It's on my other computer and I won't be able to fix it 'till Monday.

Wow. I'm wearing armor if I ever come to your house. First slugging, now biting... I suppose you joust in the backyard? (You don't joust on llamas do you?)

Ha Ha.. Craver... that was so cheeky !!

And I agree with David though ! :P

It's simpler to tell them the tooth fairy won't come next time if they don't behave.

Armor is not a bad idea, LL. I am toying with the idea of mixing pads from different sports to compose a lightweight, yet protective suit for wearing around my Mrs. and the kids.

Cuckoo, did you see the picture? Did anyone see the picture? I saw it Friday night, but then it disappeared over the weekend. I tried something new when I initially added the photo. Since I did not have the results I was hoping for, I just went back to what's tried and true.

Unfortunately, the tooth fairy doesn't come to our house, Maalie. Long ago, I mistook one for a moth, and swiped at it hysterically. I missed, but it never came back. I didn't realize what it was until the next morning, when there was no money under the pillow, and I had to start using my own money. We wouldn't want the kids to stop believing in the tooth fairie, now would we?

(sigh) Pete, you're scaring me.

I can see the picture. You are looking mighty scary, my friend. Good thing your daughter is behind you or she might not have kept smiling.

pretty funny - and I'm so glad that it was a narrow angle photo because judging by the placement of Andrew in the background - I was right beside him and I missed the entire thing - or maybe it has just become such a part of my normal life.......

Craver Vii said...

Andrew? Usually I go out of my way to meet new people. At this picnic, I hopped from table to table, but I did not notice this gent until I saw the picture. Is the the blogging Andrew I have seen on your site?

Cuckoo said...

Come on now !!

How can anybody see the picture when it was NOT there ? You clever guy...

Hee Hee..

Craver Vii said...

Sorry for the trouble, folks. The picture is up there now. Can anybody NOT see it still? Except of course, for the Department of Children and Family Services; they don't need to see me biting my children.

What is it with kids and pain? My husband and youngest partake in a game of "got you last" at least once a week, which then ends up as a running around the coffee table chasing match which then ends up as bruised thighs or hips (depending on the height of the person involved). Despite the pain, youngun keeps coming back for more, and old-un keeps engaging. That said, I guess it's not just the kids, is it?
