organized chaos

Terms of Endearment:
Socrates: aka Chaz- almost 10 yr old male gremlin. Everything he is told is cause for questioning on his part. He is also the King of Non-sequiturs.

Commando Demando: aka Zoe- 7 yr old female gremlin. She is a creative genius specializing in the construction of anything cardboard. Being creative tends to sway her moods, thus causing her, by no fault of her own, to command and demand much from me and My Man.

Jackelope- 6 yr old male gremlin. What can I say. Just read the posts under his category. He’s top heavy. He’s zany. He’s sensitive. He’s Jackelope.

The Cuteness: aka Xavier- baby in the pre-gremlin stage. He does not talk back. Nor does he leave pee on the toilet seat. Nor does he refuse to wear perfectly good hand-me-downs. He is The Cuteness.

My Man- My bestest friend. Dancer of crazy dances. Laugher of my stupid antics. Cruncher of the numbers. Reader of books I’d rather not waste my time on. Husband of 11 years and one of the best men I’ve had the privilege of knowing. And although I don’t look like it here, I do like to stand next to him for pictures.

And while I’m not one to include pets in the family fun facts, I do, on occasion, write about said beasts so here’s their blurbs.

Cooper–microcephalic mixed breed. There’s some pug, some Pomeranian, and we’re told some poodle. That must be why he looks like a hyena. Either way, as you can see, he’s happy to meet you.

The Jerk–aka Pedro the magic cat. Actually the only magic he has in his possession is the magic of being the biggest jerk on the face of the earth. But there is one part of his heart that is tender. And that’s the part that is best buds with Cooper. They are real live BFF’s.
