Quiet Time with Daddy


Sometimes, Ishmael does not feel well.
He feels better in the safety of his cone hat nest.
And even better when Daddy puts the alligator on the wall.

Law School Exams



Ishmael does not understand the fuss over finals.

In particular, he finds Real Estate Transactions to be
"child's play" (his words not mine).

"I've always been the teacher's pet," he smirks.

Cold in the Ravens Suite


Brrr.  Even with his thick undercoat, Ishmael gets cold sometimes.
He did not mind bundling up to go to the Ravens game this weekend.
He was invited to the suite, where he stayed warm with fried chicken and soft pretzels.

Not Invited to Tgiving?



I told Ishmael he was not invited to Willard Thanksgiving.
He considers this a wild injustice.
I asked him why, thinking it was because the dogs wereinvitedandhewasnot!
He said, I've made myself a cornhat in anticipation of attending.

Superstitious Ish



Ishmael feels more comfortable cheering for the Ravens while wearing his handkerchief.
His refusal to wash it has not contributed to a winning season this year...
but he thinks the luck will turn any day now.

This is the photo that started it all.


Justin came home from work early one day.  
Ishmael clearly was not expecting anyone to be home.  
He had wrapped this heart-pattern cloth napkin around his head.
And was tidying the kitchen.
