Everyone loves Lobster

This winter drove the Johnson family a little bonkers. It was long, dreary, and brought us nearly to insanity. It got so bad that I was drawn to the Michaels craft department and picked out a wooden assemble-yourself lobster. I had a lot of red paint already and the kit only cost $1, which only left time to waste. I painted all the pieces while watching Mason Jennings' road documentary, Use Your Van. Mason seemed desperate to quit touring and actually make some money, his new bassist was/probably still is an attention whore, and they attempted a lot of forced comedy. I will never care about Mason again unless Robert Skoro is allowed to return. Mark my words! Mason Jennings is dead to me and only the healing waters of Robert Skoro can bring him from the grave.

Back to the lobster.......
TJ watched in awe as his master became the master of crafts.
Assembly with glue came about a week later. Alcohol required.
Everyone has taken to Lobster. Pickles likes to look into his eyes.
TJ loves him so much he wants to destroy him.
It took some time, but even Nicole is getting used to having Lobster help around the house. What a miracle!
Lobster Johnson arrived 2/10/2010 at 0 lbs 10 oz and is 14 inches long.

The winter must have been long to tackle the creation of Lobster. So where does it stay during the day? You have to much time on your hands we all need spring to get out and move in the sunshine and dirt. Mom B
