Well, Brad’s gone again. That means the heat is turned back down, the stairway curtain’s back up, it’s very quiet around here and Lloyd and I are quietly typing away at our computers. School starts again, and life is back to ‘normal’. Boo. Normal stinks.
As is my custom, a video has been created to commemorate the close of this time. Our thanks to the Royuks who included us in their Christmas celebration, since I’ve become too chicken to travel anywhere in the winter. This video is for you – and to the rest of our audience, did you know that there was a song called “Christmas in Nebraska”? I’m not kidding. Feast your ears!

Karla says
*sigh. As usual, you’ve made me miss having Brad around, and he wasn’t even here. 🙁 Merry Christmas – Happy New Year!
Beth says
*snif*
Deanne says
But now we’re going to have a party to celebrate his coming back, and we’ll invite the whole Baltimore crew!
Brad, when do you have a free weekend??
Oh! I heard Beth is coming! We can take the party to you!!
Kristi says
Ah, the sounds of Mulberry Lane.
Lloyd says
I listened to some of their other music, and didn’t like it as well. I didn’t dislike it or anything…
Kristi says
I’ve only ever heard “Christmas in Nebraska” cuz that’s the only one that wuz ever played on the radio up in these here parts.
Lloyd says
Here’s about an album worth of songs from their website:

Kristi says
I think Lauren missed her other calling as a music video choreographer, using still and slightly moving shots. The timing of the photos matches so perfectly with the lyrics!
Brad says
Ha! That’s really cool! I really like Tim at 2:15. Hehe.
Peggy says
Again, another great video!! I too think you’ve missed your real calling.
And although normal stinks, I think if you set normal to the right music, normal would rock. Give it a try will ‘ya?
Jill says
That was awesome! Thanks for your hard work, Lauren. I especially like the reindeer card…
Peggy says
Not rhetorical questions: What is that Mrs. Royuk is wearing on her face? And yes, great card! But my screen is blurry … what are the others names … the Brown one, ???
Beth says
I think what you’re seeing is the nativity set on the desk behind her…it looks like it’s part of her face, doesn’t it?
Also:
Brown Dude, Horn Head, Stinky Butt, Spot, Horn Head #2, Lloyd, Poopy, Horn Head #2 (not a typo, part of the humor).
Lloyd says
hmmm
Lauren says
Also, big plastic bug eyes. (Daniel’s, I believe.)
Beth says
Oh yea…I forgot about those bug eyes :D.
Lauren's mom says
We got DSL for Christmas! Loved the video, and we could actually play You-Tube! Good job!
Lauren says
Hooray for DSL!!!!! Hooray!!!!!!
