The Invalid

Our computer was down for a while, but that didn't stop us from taking millions of pictures and videos. Ah, the digital age...

So we are in catch-up mode here. We hope you enjoy.

During this period of time, Mayumi caught her first flu virus. Considering how much she eats, I shouldn't have been surprised by how much could come out of her, and yet I was startled, even frightened at first. Alas, one large bottle of Pedialyte and seven days later she regained her appetite and keeps it all down.

Something else keeping her up at nights are her TEETH!! Yes, she has two little razor sharp teeth on her bottom gums. Our friend Rachel spotted them first, as you can see from this video:


We promise she's feeling better, in spite of how strung-out she looks in this photo:







Actually, we took this picture at a popular 'dive' on the main drag of our town. We decided to check it out and have confirmed that it lives up to its reputation: absolutely and wretchedly disgusting.

Poor little Mayumi! I'm sure you've discovered new highs with throw up all over you...I can just hear the sadness in your voice that little Yumi was so sick. She is beautiful and I miss y'all!

Hilary are you sure Yumi is not on drugs? That picture of her is so cute yet so sad at the same time! I love her!

I know she looks stoned...mostly it is the lighting/weird shaddows on her eyes, etc., but she WAS tired (and probably disgusted by the terrible restaurant food).
