A Much Needed Hug

So yesterday was kind of a bummer.  I decided to give Everett a haircut and accidentally buzzed off the front right half of his hair with the clippers. 

The front right part in the photo above is all now super super short like baby hair.  We have to part the rest of his hair over it like a comb over.  Ugh.  Rookie mistake.  I should have left the top part alone.

I was also bummed because it turns out that my insulators were indeed irradiated.  I have to refund the dude his money.  I’ll do a longer post about this soon, but the whole exchange has been quite the debacle.  So much for a Christmas present shopping spree :(

So with all that sadness in my heart, I was thrilled to see a package arrive from mega kind and generous reader Kevin. 

He had mailed me my very own Big Hug Mug!!  (If you don’t remember what the deal is with this mug, check out this post.)  Kevin had spotted the mug, through the window, at an estate sale.  He paid a whopping 50 cents for it!  Amazing!

I love that he took this photo.  It cracks me up! 

So here it is in all its glory!  I was going to surprise Zach with this for Christmas, but couldn’t contain my excitement.  He was so happy!

So thank you Kevin!  What a seriously rad thing to do!  As for the rest of you readers, time to step up your game.  I know we’ve been bad bloggers, but maybe if you send us more presents we would work harder ;)
