Hey, look at something happy!
I guess the Cat RE-Distribution System has decided to give me this handsome, distinguished gentleman. I present to you Leopold Hieronymus Bosch, or Mr. Bosch for short. Yes, I named him. He’s a classy fellow who needs three names.
Our Halloween house!
Blue lipstick on. Ready to go talk to some kids. Sorry everyone else. Middle schoolers are just more fun to talk to.
Got to don the blue lipstick for the first time in a while. Had a great school visit with some funny kids!
A very happy birthday to my wrecking ball of a kid!
