Friday Fragments

Mommy's Idea

Its Friday...Friday... Friday!!!!  Looking forward to the weekend - got lots of plans... of knitting & reading & cleaning & a good run ... those are the best weekends.  But for now, lets frag...
*****
I thought this was weird... its not in the wrong place... as you can see, there are more of them in the same slot... but its labeled "HIS BIRTHDAY" ... I'm sure there are some men who I guess would appreciate this, but if I were to get this birthday card for my husband, or my dad or my brother with this man dancing on the front of it, they would probably think it was odd... the inside was definitely not a joke-y card either - very serious. Maybe its just me.... the best part, Ricky was totally DYING of embrassment when I pulled out my camera in the middle of Hallmark... when will he ever learn that's what bloggers do....


*****
I tried all day yesterday to win tickets to the "So you think you can dance" tour... I'm a loser.... I was in the middle of a conversation at work & heard the words "Caller number 15" - I just stopped the conversation & RAN to the phone... yes, I want to yell at Kent with all the other 14 yr old girls...

*****
Do you know I totally forgot about the "Spat of the week" until someone reminded me.  Oh, you know we still have our spats.... so back by popular demand:

Spat of the week:  Huey Lewis .... (see, didnt you miss the wonderful things we spat about?) ... yes, we had a good spat about Huey Lewis & the News - particurly the song "I want a new Drug" & the lyrics.  Its always fun when you think you know the words to a song for years only to find out you were totally wrong.  And because I'm a big girl, I can admit - I was the one wrong about the line "or make me feel three feet thick" .... hence, where the spat comes in.  Because Ricky is not a good winner.  He likes to rub it in.... You think you're so smart Mr. Man... bring on the lyrics to "Happy to be stuck with you"... I'll show you I know my Huey Lewis!

*****
I read in a magazine this morning the "word of the month" is TOILET MUMMY ... its when you cover the toilet in a public with toilet paper to avoid at all costs your rear end touching anything porclein.  I do that...especially in those gross bathrooms you dont even want your feet to be touching the ground.  It did go on to say that its very rare you can catch any kind of disease from a toilet seat, but who wants to take chances?  So next time you cover that seat, you have an official term you can use... dont say you dont learn anything on this blog....

*****
And look what I found looking for a good picture of a Toilet Mummy.... they now sell things you can keep in your purse so you dont have to use toilet paper - which you know is always out anyways...

Isnt this picture hilarious though for advertising? Because everyone should look fashionable sitting on the commode... And I like the line at the bottom - "Because you never know" ...

*****
Now this is recycling!  I love it!  I have a whole huge bin of water bottles.  I want to make this... maybe bedazle it & sell it as a premium cell phone holder?  I wonder if its safe for that plastic to be around the outlet?  But kudos for the genuis that thought of this...


*****
So Reality Steve was WRONG about the Bachlorette outcome!!!! I know he claims he changed his site like at noon the day of the show, but that doesnt count!  When you tell people for MONTHS that Ali picks no one & then you change it a few hours before, it doesnt mean you got it right.  ABC must be catching onto his source.  Needless to say, I enjoyed being surprised that she did pick Roberto... the Latin Lovah.... I'm keeping fingers crossed that they work out... only because I like Roberto.  He seems like a really buen chico ... that's Spanish for good guy... & I actually had to Google that it.... I originally had Bueno Muchacho ... which putting that in Google, I found out is actually a person on Facebook... & a restaraunt in California...

*****
Anyone watching "Work of Art"?  I really have enjoyed that show & totally think my brother would win if he were on there... but I have to say, art is crazy!  I know "art" is interpretive but some of this stuff, I'm thinking, seriously?  And it wins!!!!  Like this picture... it won the challenge.  They had to create an outdoor sculpture.  They just sorta built a thing you could lay back on & look at the sky ... & they laid weird shape things around in a circle... & it won... I think I need to start looking at the piles of clutter in my house & tell everyone its art - a statement...


******
I have two words for you... PRINCE POPPYCOCK ... I love this man... if you dont know what I'm talking about, then you are missing out on the most theaterical man you'll ever see... his make up & costumes are beautiful... & in the words of Sharon, "he's FABULOUS!" ... I hate opera, but I would listen to him anytime


*****
Hope you all are FABULOUS today ... Happy Friday!!

  3. what a week.. I loved how the show ended up with Ali. I am glad she got rid of Chris when she did then he would not have gotten hurt more. I did like Chris more though. He is more my type. Oh when I was single. I go see Wicked tomorrow..

  6. I would lose that lyric contest/argument every time. I fail at popular music. I've never seen "Work of Art," but think I would like it.

  7. okay that is most definitely NOT a man's birthday card.. weird! And I love that cell phone holder thing! Oh and the toilet thing, good idea!

  8. Because of soccer, I have to stop at lots of nasty bathrooms. My preferred method is hunching over the commode, backwards, of course. It makes for a good leg workout, but hey, a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do!

    BTW, I have been having upteen problems commenting on blogspot blogs. Ugh!
