The Corp. Scorp

Why do I do this to myself?

I have been watching the movie The Corporation this morning and now I am terrified. I never want to drink milk, breathe air, swim, watch television, let my babies watch television, run outside, stay inside, look anywhere for fear of constant advertising brain-rot and most recently and terrifyingly I try not to think about the horrific geyser of unstoppable oil destroying our oceans and all oceanic life in the south.

Did I mention I live on the beach?






Sigh.

I woke up this morning with both babies in the bed with me. Ethan invented an "underwater" game in which he slid all the way under the covers to the bottom of the bed and wiggled out of the sheets at the foot of the bed only to pop up and announce he was a shark. No a whale. I'm a baby shark Auntie Tea see? And he'd wiggle on his belly all the way back up the bed.

How much longer do you think we will have sharks? Whales?

This weekend we had a seal (a real live seal!) right off the beach at Race Point in Provincetown, which was amazing. We got to see his little head pop out of the water and plop back in presumably hunting the huge blue fish herd that was migrating across the water. Many a fisherman was looking to catch a few blue fish, too.

Here is a cute picture of Matthew from PTown

Also, if that film trailer has you interested at all check out the work of eco-feminist Dr. Vandana Shiva who makes me believe that someday, I, too can be an eco-feminist.


Until that glorious day when we help each other save the world, I will leave you with some pictures of my rapidly growing 3 and-a-half year olds who just couldn't wait to show me their new balloons when I got home from my weekend away. Spiderman and Little Mermaid, of course.

My god, they have gotten so BIG!

Bailey also has something important to tell me, it seems.

But for now it's back to fixing the cars for me.
