I got up last night near midnight and doused Cooper with silly string while he was hanging with his bro. Why, you may ask? Today is Coopertron’s 28th birthday! Luckily we are still at an age where we don’t mind declaring how old we are, but unfortunately Cooper and I both are starting to show the signs of aging (crow’s feet, gray hair, soft bellys, aching muscles, slowing minds etc.).
If you have a moment and want to give this guy a shout out…give him a call, write him an e-mail, or send him a phony wedding photography inquiry (but make it obvious that it is a prank). All his info can be found at www.coopercarras.com. Even if you don’t know him, I’m sure he would appreciate the love.
Happy Birthday Cooper Hans!

At a very young age I lost site of my mom in a local grocery store in Boulder, Colorado. I did, however, have the smarts to go to the customer service counter. The kind woman at the counter asked "What is your name little girl?" My reply: "Assi." The woman gave me a look like, "Are you playing with me you little devil?" but she proceeded to blast on the loudspeaker the "We have a lost Assi at the front of the store." Customers throughout the store gagged and giggled, but my mom knew exactly who the woman was referring to: the mullet haired little girl with a tongue too big for her mouth, wearing a leotard, skirt, tights, and jelly shoes (with florescent green laces in them...even though they didn't need the laces). A shy little character for whom every little detail in life was a huge thing. I am pleased to report that today I am able to fully pronounce Allison (aka Ali), but the Assi pseudonym has always stuck, evolving into Aszi. As for the shy little character for whom every little detail in life was a huge thing? Some things never change.
