Sunday Sound Out

Yay, you got some Dansko clogs!! Don't you just love them??? I didn't know they came in Flintstone!! LOL
Yep! They also come in patent leopard Flintstone!

Ok, I need to know where you got those shoes. They're so cute and they look absolutely comfy! Can you share?
Will I share my shoes? Nope. But I got 'em on eBay.

I can't believe the little monkey actually sleep with her eyes open! doe she always do that???
Pretty often. It's totally creepy!

What eventually happens if no one heeds to Brooklyn's tantrums?
The earth stops spinning?

Oooh! I love the look of the blanket you were crocheting. Any chance you might share the pattern?
Sure!
ch (multiple of 3 + 2 chs) loosely
ROW 1 (right side): (sc, 2 dc) in second ch from hook,
* skip next 2 chs, (sc, 2 dc) in next ch; repeat form * across to last 3 chs, sc in last ch
Loop a piece of yarn around any stitch to mark last row as right side.
ROW 2 Ch 1, turn; (sc, 2 dc) in first sc and in each sc across to last sc, sc in last sc.
Repeat row 2 until piece measures desired length.
It's super easy!

Is that a picture of you Dawn? Man does Brooklyn look a lot like you did.
Yep that was me and my grandma. I'd stayed with her while my parents were on vacation and when they came back and it was time to go, I held on to my grandma and didn't want to leave.

Okay so I'm just catching up and I noticed you mentioned a little something about library fines last week. A friend told me about a great website called libraryelf.com. You just select your local library, plug in your information, and it will send you reminder emails when you have stuff due. It's a great thing and has saved me from who knows how many fines over the past few months.
Awesome! Thank you for the tip! I signed up for the email reminders! Hear that Suburban Correspondent? <---click that link. She's hilarious! (She and I are working at financing new wings on our local libraries.) Nice job, Clay! Totally cracked me up... So after you saw the grandma knees what did you realize you needed to start with?
hiding the rubber bands

Dawn! Why on earth did you not get a video of Disco Bob?!?!? You get video of gorillas eating their boogers, but you can't get a video of a spazzing middle aged roller skate dancer? :-)
I know. I've disappointed my readers. :( Believe me, I wanted to. I tried to, in fact. But I was reprimanded for using a flash and was told I could only take pictures of the rink without a flash. Unfortunately it was too dark to get any good pictures/video. Oh and the guy was actually only about 21. That's somehow even sadder, don't you think?

Ok I totally forgot that Andy Gibb was in the video! Does that mean I have to admit to how many times I've watched it?!
I think you need to watch it one more time because Andy Gibb isn't in Xanadu.

ONJ is one of my all-time favorite singers. Barry Manilow is THE favorite for me. :) Are you a Fanilow?

SOOO many great answers! You might also say it's the stuff that comes out of my nose when I do the NETTI-POT, which I MADE A VIDEO OF today after our lunch and I will post SOON!
I'm SO not going to your site any time soon, Manic! Warning to all my readers, don't go visit Manic's site unless you want to see her washing snot from her nose!

question- have you moved to becauseisaidso.com? or is that on hold?
Ugh, there have been many factors holding up the launch of my new site. It's coming along, but it's not quite done yet. Soon...

I would love to see Mike Rowe spend a day with a mom. Now THAT'S a dirty job!
I've thought the same thing myself!

Question for Sunday Sound Out:How long does it take you to suck down a mai tai?
Well, as you can clearly see from these pictures, it takes me a long time. I just slowly nursed my drink along while everyone else was on their second one!

Manic, Lynn, Shawna (don't let the "gardening nude" scare you. She doesn't really garden in the nude. Well, maybe she does, but not on her website anyway. Check out her way cool Live Smarter project.), and I had lunch at Stir Crazy on Friday. We talked blogs and business. It was quite serious.


This must have been the part where we talked about whether Blogger or Word Press was better.


This was probably when we discussed marketing.


This is when we were laughing because our boobs were on the table debating the pros and cons of advertising on our sites.


Shawna's bowl - she understands the concept of getting your money's worth by piling it high with veggies.


Lynn's bowl. She eats like a bird.


Mmmmm, my yummy lunch. I love Stir Crazy!
