The Brownies are beginning to accumulate some togs. So far, so very, very good. Some are gifts; some we’ve purchased. Lookin’ good already, kids.
Boy/girl? Boy/Boy? Girl/Girl? We’ll know at month’s end.
Regardless, we have no qualms about putting a girl in an AC/DC onesie, or a boy in a Blondie shirt. As long as it’s fabulous, we’ll wear it.
I am quite eager to meet the rascals who will wear these fab ensembles.
Graphic artist Stephen Wildish is at it again! This time, it’s the Horror Film Alphabet.
Well, well, well… look who’s 50. Happy birthday, Jon Bon Jovi.
That’s about the only kind thing I have to say.
Why do I have such a problem with Jersey rockers?!? It’s not nice!
I won’t change.
Just in time for Easter, the über-realistic chocolate skull by Marina Malvada. Cast from an actual human skull, Malvada uses “bone chocolate,” a signature blend of Belgian white and milk chocolate, to get that straight-from-the-crypt look. $200, plus shipping.
Everybody freak out! Scream and cry! Clutch your pearls! Screeeeam again! Justin friggin’ Bieber is 18!!!!!!!!!!
Happy birthday, Biebs. No voting here for you, lil’ Canuck, but you can smoke and go to porn shops now. I recommend passing on the smokes. And the porn? Meh… better in theory. In other words, don’t go changin’, kiddo… just beib yourself. Ew, now THAT sounds porny. Bleck.
Heartfelt condolences go out to my sister, Kelly, on the loss of her heartthrob, Davy Jones, who died of a heart attack at age 66 today.
Single ladies: get a ring ready.
According to an old Irish legend, St. Bridget struck a deal with St Patrick to allow women to propose to men every 4 years.
In some places, Leap Day has been known as “Bachelors’ Day” for the same reason. A man was expected to pay a penalty, such as a gown or money, if he refused a marriage proposal from a woman on Leap Day. In many European countries, especially in the upper classes of society, tradition dictates that any man who refuses a woman’s proposal on February 29 has to buy her 12 pairs of gloves. The intention is that the woman can wear the gloves to hide the embarrassment of not having an engagement ring.
