WWKIP Parte Deux

Today I diligently celebrated the second day of the WWKIP holiday. (Hey if Christmas can have 12 days, can't we knitters have TWO?) Today I celebrated World Wide Knit in Pajamas day by steadfastly refusing to get dressed all day long, while simultaneously knitting up a storm. I would say my only regret is not having a sweet little bunny suit, but frankly this is the Midwest in the middle of June and that would just be SILLY.

And then there were 13.

After today I only have 13 work days left before I put on my cape and fly from this place. On second thought, I'd better check into matching tights as it's a mite cold in Kansas.

For your viewing pleasure, I discovered this little gem courtesy of Scrine. Now that's a thesis! Enjoy.

Millionaire

I have just been notified by email that I have won an African lottery; funds will be transferred after I send my bank account routing information and social security number: who wants to celebrate with me?

Mondegreen

This week I've had a running theme on mondegreens going. Don't know what those are? Wikipedia to the rescue:

A mondegreen is the mishearing (usually accidental) of a phrase as a homophone or near-homophone in such a way that it acquires a new meaning.

This can be particularly amusing when it relates to songs:

• "Sweet dreams are made of cheese."
  
  
• "Shot through the heart, and you're too lame."
  

Thoughts on Laundry

The towering Mt. Vesuvius of laundry decorated the middle of the room; Sally glared at it menacingly armed with detergent, bleach and dryer sheets - there was only room for one of them in this small bedroom.

Sally sighed as she heaved the load out of the washer and headed outside to put it on the line to dry; this money laundering thing was a lot of work.
