bad monkey: minutes of fun for the entire family

On Saturday a small package showed up in my mailbox. It was from the Artificial Duck Co. My Blogography gear had arrived! It is really nice stuff. The cards are very cool. The shirt is so soft and I love the quality of the screen printing. I imagine this shirt will be in regular rotation on my days off of work.

On Sunday it was unseasonably cool here in Toledo, so I threw on a pair of jeans and my new Bad Monkey Button Shirt. I was showing it off to G-tot and pointed out Bad Monkey. Then I showed him the sign and the red button. We pondered what would happen if the button was pressed. G-tot pressed it and I hopped up and made a big noise like I was exploding.


Which was a HUGE success. For the rest of the day, anytime G-tot was within arms reach of me he was seeking out that button to push. If I didn't make the noise quick enough he was there to supplement my delay with a "bam".

Since I'm a lazy ass, at the end of the day I took off my jeans and bra and crawled into bed with the shirt still on. The first thing G-tot did when he saw me this morning was press the red button.

LOL! that's awesome - for years, everytime my daughter squeezed daddy's nose she would imitate the loud beeeeeeep sound he used to make when she first started doing it. You've stumbled onto something there! ;)

For the rest of his life he will be playing with the "buttons" on womens chests.

That's my favorite design! I downloaded Dave's wallpapers for the iPhone and use that one the most! In fact, I even used it on my SmartPhone before I got an iPhone.

Awww now I want a bad monkey t-shirt! Although it will probably attract my husband to my chest more.
