Who's that mysterious, political figure trapped in between my loving hound dog's teeth!
Why, that's Illinois Senator Barack Obama!
It looks like Clark has officially endorsed his candidate for President.

Everybody Loves Bacon!
Whether it be turkey bacon, bacon bits, a real slab of bacon for breakfast or in your Bush's Baked Beans, everyone loves bacon, right?! Well, let's put that to the test...
My sister, Kristina, has fostered this adorable siamese kitten - and she has named her Bacon! Her logic was that her fiance, who LOVES bacon, would fall in love with her too. So far, no luck. Bacon started coming around about three or four days ago looking for food. As you can see in the pictures, she is very, very skinny. Kristy thinks she is only three or four months old, due to her size. Bacon is a little shy when it comes to humans, but she has started eating soft kitty food twice a day.
We are trying to find Bacon a nice home that can give her the love she deserves. Please, please let me know if you are interested or know someone that is.

Bloggity-Blog, Blog, Blog
After being called out on a friend's blog for "taking a break from the blogosphere", it is possible that is my guilt talking and she was totally talking about someone else, I will answer the following bloggy questions regarding my bloggy-blog.
____________________________
1. Why did you start a blog?
I started Planet Hammond because:
a) I was really excited about being married and I thought we would have all sorts of new and exciting news to share. Why I thought this, I'm not sure. It's not like we just moved in together and we still had all sorts of fun quirks to learn about each other. We lived together for almost five years before we were married. Wedding bliss fogged my mind.
b) Because I like to read blogs. So I thought, "Why not. Our lives are just as interesting as Brad and Angelina, right?"
c) Because I was bored at work.
2. Why do you continue to blog?
Besides the above mentioned pressure, I also blog for the sake of family and friends that I don't get to see or talk to often. It is nice to know that I can share with them regardless of everyone's busy schedules.
3. Do you have a blogmother/blogfather?
I don't have any one person/blog that inspired me to start blogging. I do enjoy reading my friend Carol and cousin Jen's witty blogs. I also have a sick fasination with celebrity blogs. Once I start, I can't stop!
4. Any downside to blogging?
Not that I can think of. Maybe just the thought that I need to blog regularly to keep my "fans" happy and coming back. If you notice that I havn't posting in a while, please check back often. I'll come back. I promise.
5. Do your 'real world' friends know that you blog?
Some of them do. A lot of them don't. I was a little hesistant about sending out a mass email message announcing my blog. It seems a little self-centered to me. Especially since the purpose of it is to update those that I am not in contact with often about our lives. If I was a witty writer, I would invite more. But this is bare bones people. I usually am short and to the point.

Chippity-Chop
It's been two years since my last chop...
I was able to donate 14 inches this time to the wonderful organization Locks of Love. This brings me to a total of 26 inches donated so far.

Cherry Land
Last weekend we took a roaptrip to lovely Traverse City. Due to receiving two nights as a wedding gift we stayed at the Grand Traverse Resort - thanks again Tri-County Citizen. We did a lot of sight seeing. We did the lighthouse thing and visited the Sleeping Bear Dunes. We visited all the cutesy shops downtown. We even fit in a visit to my Great Aunt Catherine's 100 year old birthday party. Overall, a nice weekend with nice weather.

Quote of the Day
"Innovation is the result of caring more than others think is wise, risking more than others think is safe, dreaming more than others think is practical, and expecting more than others think is possible."
