some random things

Josh growling at the baby raccoon the other day may have worked. We haven't seen him around since.

My jaw is no longer bothering me. That was weird, I'm glad it's over. I laughed when Josh said maybe I yawned to hard/wide. You would think after almost 30 years of yawning, I'd know how to do it. Maybe he was right. Who knows?

Went to the library last night and checked out What the bleep do we know. We still have about a half an hour to go but it's pretty interesting. I recognized the lines-woman from Seinfeld right away. That seems like an odd roll for her, but whatever. I had Demille's Plum Island in my hand on two different occasions at the library but ended up walking out with Stephen King's Night Shift (per Josh's suggestion). Plum Island looked good but all the copies they had smelled really funny. Like weird old ladies or something. I couldn't get over the smell and the thought of laying in bed having the stench of old hag wafting up into my nose all.

If you haven't yet, don't forget to go check out my store and let me know your thoughts. The selection is small now, but will increase soon. One sure way to stroke my fragile ego would be to buy one. wink, wink, nudge, nudge, know what I mean? I'm off to my long day at work today. Hope yours is fabulous.

Didn't you ever hear that you can't judge a book by its odor?

It smelled like old lady? Hmmm, I can't image old ladies reading it. Seriously, you need to read it, although Night Shift is good too though.

blogarita—hehehe...you're silly

Chuck—I had Night Shift in my hand too. I'm going to go to another library and pick it up. I will read it. I have every intention and the storyline looked good for both.

Plum Island was excellent. Spray some perfume on the book and read away.

Glad your jaw is better, that was kinda odd. And yes, I'll be purchasing at least 2 shirts. I love them!!

I know what USUALLY causes a woman's jaw to hurt...

... jacking it too much! I would have said something else, but you ARE married, so I'm guessing you no longer do that sort of thing.

:):):):)

Pixie - I heart your store - what a cool idea! Can you design me a "i gotta have more cowbell" shirt - a cute women's t or tank! :)

Queen—Yay! Thanks a million.

Dave—What are you trying to say? Married women don't chew gum?

Kelwhy—Thanks. I'll put that on my list of shirts to make. I can see it now...

what about a shirt that says
"you haven't been Snaged until you've been Bo Snaged" with a picture of a big chicken eating corn on the cob on the back

Pixie:
I love the shirts!!!

Book smells: Our library's children's books have a weird barf/sour diaper smell that's so pervasive that now my five year old must smell each book before we check it out to make sure it smells o.k. If a book somehow makes it home with the smell, she won't read it. Weird.

Snagley—that sounds like a charming shirt.

VoF—Thanks! Usually I like the smell of old books, but not this one. It's the paper and the leather that I like, this one just smelled bad.
