...and Internet porn has it! Starting today, Bleisenblog will feature, for your viewing pleasure, *&%$ ^#$* ^**&$! Just kidding! Actually, it was a tie for first place, between porn and a pyramid scheme. I think the logical option is to combine the two--make one adult video, send it to your ten best friends, receive thousands over the next ten years! It's foolproof! And also send me your credit card information!

You know how in disney movies elephants are scared of mice? That gives you a good picture of what Dylan is like with ants. She'll see one on the sidewalk and point to it and do a little scared dance and yell NO NO NO and scamper away with her penguin-run-waddle.

The cat two houses down used the opportunity of Snuffy's absence to express his undying love for Dylan. I didn't know it was possible for cats to run over excitedly to be petted. My impression was that they generally hang out in the corner disdainfully ignoring you. But I'm allergic so I don't have much real world experience on this one. Anyway, this cat (possibly named Mr. Cat) will come running if he sees Dylan and flop down next to her for a belly rub. She is delighted because most of the furry beasts of her experience outweigh her by a good 50+ pounds and this one is more her size. I've noticed much less cat love since Snuffy came back, with his stereotypical views on the cat subject.

And now, a little Art by Kate. I think you can assume that these little sketches will be worth a pretty penny one day, as will early drafts of blog posts jotted on cocktail napkins.

This one I drew while Aaron was away to explain where he was ('up up in the sky in a plane' for three days, as it turned out). There is still some lingering confusion when he goes to work as to whether that involves a plane flight.
This one was for when Snuffy was out of town, possibly in a plane. He's a dog who has a lot of business to attend to.
