BABBLES
it's my uncle's birthday today. he turns 50. this is the guy that drives at excessive speeds, wrestles with the kids, sings at the top of his lungs when entering a room. the biggest kid in the family turns 50 today.
i used to squeal in delight every time we wrestled. i used to pout when he carved intricate pagoda's outta carrots and i sat by his side ruining all the other carrots with my renditions of croked pointy sticks. some things never change - i still make ugly things no matter how hard i try.
i just walked (waded) to chinatown and bought him a set carving tools. maybe he'll take it up again and i can get some good pics.
in the store, i buckled and realized for the first time in my life - i was afraid to speak chinese. it's slippin, near gone. it's frightening losing yer first language.

btw, you seem to have been spammed w/ a pr0nlink. if i were you, i'd not click the spammer's "swing" link -- definitely NSFW.
