Um...Hello?

Okay, so Donkey Kong wasn't expecting me to jump on him from behind.  We hadn't seen each other in a month, though, so I thought he might appreciate an enthusiastic greeting.  He told me afterwards that he thought a little kid was trying to get a piggy-back ride, which was made more ironic in light of my job description.

Try to Clarify.

I still can't figure out what the person who sent me this picture was trying to get me to do.

Shine and Rise!

The Pianta pictured here wasn't too fond of us being on the island, but we had to rescue the Princess, which took precedence.  This is to say that you have more potential than you can possibly know built into you on purpose.  Don't ever think that what everyone else says defines who you are.  Only one Person can do that, so shine out loud.

Just DON'T Dance.

This was the only dance party I ever hosted on Yoshi's Island.  Some Yoshis are graceful.  I am not one of them, obviously:

Background Around.

It's a little low resolution, but I like this silhouetted picture.  It's simple, pleasant, and I didn't have a chance to smile awkwardly in it.  All pluses, right?

Off-Kilter Filter.

Have you ever noticed that some pictures make you look kind of slow?  I wonder why that happens.   This photo, from the 90s, is not, as they say, one of my finest hours.

Heartgul

No one is beyond redemption.  Whomp has a heart, but he hides it behind that rocky demeanor.  You just have to get to know the guy.

New Start.

So I missed a day.  We've still had a lot of fun, and I'm not giving up just because of one slip.  Thanks for checking in!

Miss!

I prided myself on posting every single day.  On February 20th, I forgot.  Gee, I was really hoping to reach 365 days in a row.  I'm sorry.

High Priority Pastry.

I've said this before, but I love cookies.  I can hear them from a distance almost as long as the distance from which I could smell them.  This was taken by Peach when I obviously didn't know it.  She added the caption, but maybe that is what I was saying.

Ride On.

Whoever's idea this was, thank you.  From the bottom of everyone who ever raced in Mario Kart's heart, thank you.

Long Light.

It took years to develop this trick.  It's kind of fun, though, because you get people's attention really fast when there's a point of light at one second and the next second it's gone.  Again, though, this is for professionals.  Please, don't do anything so risky unless you absolutely know what you're doing.  Thanks.

Large-Leaved.

Honestly, I could have taken this leaf and used it as a blanket.

Conscious Conscience.

I'm obviously not proud of this picture.  That poor Koopa didn't do anything to me.  Thankfully, this picture is from years ago, and I don't go around smacking people with hammers anymore, but it serves as a reminder that sometimes I can let competition go a little too far.  After all, this was just a game.

P.S.  I noticed that yesterday's picture was a repeat.  Sorry about that.  I've been trying to avoid doing that this whole time, but I missed one.

Blurt It Out.

Otherwise you may end up in a dizzying conversation, like Wario did.

Winner's Walk.

Okay, so it doesn't seem to me like that's what winners should do, but so many stories have told me otherwise that I don't care to question it anymore.  Personally, I'd prefer ice cream.

Dude, Rude!

Seriously, though.  How in heaven's name could I have been this insensitive?

Soccer Talker.

See?  So I have worn more than one pair of shoes.  That settles it.  Seriously though, it looks like I'm about to attack the ball.  Maybe I shouldn't drink coffee before sports.

The "Yes!" Moment.

I just love that moment of accomplishment where you're like "Yes.  I did it."  Those are so cool.  This picture was taken during one of those moments, but ironically, I can't remember what it was I had just done.  Maybe one day I'll figure it out.  I'll keep you posted.

Bike Strike.

Yep, this definitely isn't one of my more intelligent moments.  Actually, since I did this a BUNCH of times, it's more like a flashback of one of my less intelligent habits.  Okay, so I still do this.  I should stop.  I have no real excuse, but it looks pretty cool on camera, don't you think?

Out of the Box.

Don't you hate it when photo developers insist on putting their watermark on your photo?  It's so distracting!  Anyways, this is a pretty self-explanatory picture.  I don't work with Luigi as much as Mario, which is kind of too bad because Luigi's a really good egg.

Back to the Drawing Board.

Remember a while back when I posted about Mario's hunting trip and how it didn't last very long?  This is why.  Neither one of us had the experience to make things work, pure and simple.

Enough with the...

Seriously, the ellipses is so frustrating because it leaves you dangling and...

Now Let's Review...

Ever felt like your life was an open book?  I sure have.  No idea why I'm referring to myself in the third person.

Intechnically Skilled.

This isn't the first golfing memory that I've posted before, but I couldn't help but laugh when I saw these two swings contrasted against one another.  I wonder which picture was taken first.

How...I...Never mind.

Sometimes I think I live in a cartoon.  How did a star just appear on a football field, and why are Mario and I looking at it like that's perfectly normal?

EXPLAIN!!!

This is from a recent time when Mario, Luigi, Peach and I were playing Wii U.  I'll just leave it at that.

Stringing Me Along.

I'll miss it with all my heart, but I've adventures to roam!
