Ms. Trixie, you're on in five
A little behind the scenes sneak-peek. I knew we had a small apartment, but you set up about a dozen stands for the lights, camera, reflectors plus cables, and you can barely walk around. In the end though, all that matters is the framed shot. So here's a huge thanks to Greg and Joe for making it look so good (it's amazing) on the monitor.

Good Grief! I would have had to hide in the bedroom until they were ready! Chaos is not my strong suit, even organized chaos.

At least Trixie is in a safe place--although she looks a little "pooed out" from all the excitement.

How did you ever recover from such overwhelming excitement? I need to know 'cause I'm having a little trouble with it myself! :)

Heh. My first thought when I saw this photo was "Colum has the same exact high chair, except for the color of the padding and tray." Then I realized that was a silly thing to think about when looking at a photo such as this: more importantly, Colum has the same exact video camera.*


*Not true.

Awesome picture! I'd love to see more "behind the scenes" action in future tpods (hint, hint.)

I'm emailing friends now asking them to tape the show for me - I don't have cable either.

Congrats on your continued fame!

I love this picture. Trixie looks like this kind of thing happens to her all the time. I guess you've gotten her so used to having her picture taken, Ben, that this is all old hat to her.

I now understand why you said you were exhausted after yesterday's events. I would be, too, if I had to deal with that level of stuff in my house.
