The May Haps

I don’t have a theme for today’s blog but I get itchy when I go too long without posting, so forgive the randomness. It’s not that I don’t have anything to write about; it’s that most of my stories lately have been from subbing, and for confidentiality reasons, I can’t blog about those. I can tell you that today I learned the meaning of the word “gyatt,” (borderline inappropriate) the new definition of mewing (surprisingly appropriate!), and that jawlines are currently the funniest part of the body. Oh, and I was accused of making pooping illegal.

Usually when I don’t have anything to blog about I go to my photos and pull some stuff together out of those, but I recently signed up for Ridwell and have lots of questions about recycling, so most of my pictures are of garbage.

(No; yes; no; and it’s complicated.)

Oh wait! I found one! A non-garbage picture, from a birthday party for Kevin’s coworker where we all signed a big poster. Kevin didn’t know what to draw, so I suggested Clippy, since it was a techy crowd. Please ignore the inappropriate drawing above Clippy’s head. There were a lot of those on the poster. Like, a lot a lot.

Kevin has always said he’d get a tattoo if only he knew what to get. Looks like his wait is over!

Fun fact: I’m friends with the guy who designed Clippy! He’s a local children’s book author/illustrator, and an all around great guy.

If Kevin’s drawing of Clippy wasn’t disturbing enough, then I have something truly terrible to show you. It’s from a furniture magazine I got in the mail, and if you want to have a restful night sleep full of untroubled dreams, then you should definitely not keep scrolling.

You’re going to anyway, aren’t you?

Last chance to stop!

I really mean it this time…

All right then, here it is:

I don’t even know what is the most disturbing part of this picture. The crumbs on the sheets? The pending butter stains? The built-in croissant drawer? Or perhaps all the croissant business is just to detract from whatever is going on with the headboard? I don’t have any answers, but whoever came up with this photo spread is definitely flaky.

And now, to cleanse the palate of any unsavory things you have seen or read in today’s post, here are some pictures of my garden.

Tata! Sweet dreams!

  1. Your garden is gorgeous!!!!! As I look out at the remains of our latest spring snowstorm and the few leaf buds hearty enough to survive the still nearly freezing overnight temperatures, your garden photos are most encouraging!! One day it will be spring here too!! I live for June through mid August, the lovely tine sandwiched between the seasons of grey/brown and grey/white. Enjoy your beautiful flowers and plants.
