If you missed your dose of Cute Overload today, or even if you didn't, check out Mindy and Tim's latest Adventure in Homeowning:
Oh Deer!
It will make you kick yourself for not living in Monterrey, CA, where they have beautiful weather, breathtaking coastline views, superior food and wine, and also, apparently, helpful singing baby animals in every backyard. ("Lalala... we three deers... mow the yard... prance and sing... eat your lemon tree... [bluebird solo]...")
I guess they are only singing in my head.
Anthropomorphic!
My friend Julia recently accepted an offer to attend Columbia University's school for fancy writers in NYC. I am so proud of her! She also keeps winning prizes, which afford her the opportunity to schmooze with poets the likes of Naomi Shihab Nye, who called her writing "absolutely delicious." (Says Jason: "Naomi says that to everyone.")
Anyway, Julia's family is pretty great too. She recently e-mailed her big brother about her imminent life as a poor poet graduate student in NYC living on beans and rice.
"Awwww, Guez.." he writes back. "That is so great that you are being so optimistic. Really... rice with your beans?"

I am happy I did not kill the baby deer, but now I am prepared to go into full-force deer removal mode. Deer are rather destructive. Sling shot, anyone?
