Mickey Shorts

I am still pondering the trip post--hmm, should it be a synopsis or a full-blown tale telling? While I am working on it, here is the Mickey Shorts Potholder I picked up. It is particularly useless as a potholder but very cute as a souvenir. Daughter #1 thought it was Mickey Ass, but I'm afraid it's Mickey crotch instead.

Welcome back! Nothing like a little Mickey crotch to start the day!
Well whatever, it looks cute. No a synopsis will not do, Robyn, not at all. We want DETAILS, bare and base.
Cute!!!

Anything you feel like sharing about your trip would be great.

This is hilarious Robyn and such a refreshing change from the usual Mickey ears - I had a pair of those when I was little and I watched that fellow with the guitar on the Mickey Mouse Club on Television every day. TV was very new to Australia then, I think it started in 1956 but my grandmother had a new set in about 1958 I think. We were one of the few households to have one. My grandmother was very big on world cruises and I think she must have collected the Mickey ears on one of her trips.
Looking forward to hearing all about your trip and especially the bits about bus trips and peppermints!

Hee hee.
A Mickey's crotch pot holder!
That's wonderful Robyn.
With its scary button eyes and its little smile made from … er … I'd rather not think of that!

Happy Birthday...

to me! Update: Since you have asked, I only got one actual packaged gift, a beautiful hand-made bracelet from a friend, but both girls were home for the weekend, and we had dinner at the lake and a relaxing weekend. Thanks to all of you for your lovely wishes!

My Sitemeter is All Bloated and Not Quite Itself

I'm tempted to let it sit on the couch with its feet curled up under a blanket, a hot cup of coffee in hand, a block of cherry almond bark Chocolove within reach, and An Affair to Remember spinning in the DVD player. I'm one of those obsessive bloggers, the kind who checks her sitemeter as often as possible throughout the day, the kind who gauges the quality of her writing by the number of readers who regularly stop by. I've become less interested in the overall number of hits and more interested in the number of repeat hits. The return visitors are the ones I long for. When my sitemeter reads forty at the end of the day, and the majority of those hits are webpals who have conversed, I'm happy. Forty may seem low to many of you, but I've only been at this since August. To me, forty is a jackpot. A few days ago, I sat down at my laptop and discovered a number somewhere in the eighties. Eighties! Yippee! Yeeha ! Hoo-rah ! I've been discovered by the webworld , o...

Ish People

Tell an Ish person to show up around 9 a.m., and you'll see them somewhere around 9 a.m. Tell them to show up at 9ish, and you'll see them anywhere from 9:05 to 9:20. You have given them license to dilly dally, and who wouldn't take advantage of that? The other night at the big shindig dinner party, one of the drummers said the rehearsal the next morning would begin at 9ish. "I am an ish person," he says. Immediately the clanker goes off in my head--oh, good, I thought. I can deliver my daughter a little late. No Ish person is early, so if you say 9ish, that does not mean give or take 5, 10, 15 minutes. It's exclusively a taking phrase. Take an extra 10 minutes to drink your cup of coffee. We won't mind. We're Ish people. Sunday's rehearsal started at 2:00. Because it was conducted by the same people who conducted the Saturday rehearsal, my understanding was 2-ISH. My daughter is worse than I am about taking liberties with Ish time frames, so she d...
