ragtags studio central: sarah's random this & that

random means "having no definite aim or purpose," (1655), taken from "at random" (1565), "at great speed" (thus, "carelessly, haphazardly"). In 1980s college student slang, it somehow, and sadly, acquired a distinct sense of "inferior, undesirable." (Online Etymology Dictionary, Douglas Harper) Well, okay, fine, Mr. Online Etymology Dictionary person, but THIS is the 21st Century. It's a whole new ball of wax.

One more thing

HAPPY 6TH BIRTHDAY SEBASTIAN!
(We need to take a new pic or two now that you're all grown up!)




Okay, the sign on the furniture.
This is my grandson Sebastian.
A few years ago (he is obviously a grown-up of six solemn years, now) many of us were in Albuquerque at my MIL's (Peggy's) for a party. She had someone help her to print out these signs, put them in frames and set them all around the living room. 'Drink' was actually meant symbolically to be anything taken by mouth.

He who puts
drink on
Chief Peggy's
Furniture
Suffers
many moons

But the thing is, no matter how hard she tried to control what was going on, with dozens of kids, and oblivious adults, someone was gonna break the rules. Especially someone who clearly couldn't read.

Ha! I love that "He who puts drink on Aunt . . . " in the frame! That is too funny.

And yes, take some photos now that Mr. Sebastian is all grown up. *smiles*

My son just celebrated his 17th b-day, and I had to "steal" the photos from him on the computer that I used on my b-day blog post to him!

Sherry, regarding the line in the frame, my mom really ought to give the whole story on that. It's even funnier!

Sarah, couldn't Seppie email you some pictures at least so we don't all have to wait? Seppie, I am going to check your blog. I hope you have photos on there!

Anyway, thanks for sharing. And pass on birthday wishes to Sebasi from his ever spacey aunty.
