Friday Countdown Starts NOW

Daily Hoop Conversation:
Tink: Look what fell out of the dryer.
Hoop: My work key!
Tink: You don't want to forget that again.
Hoop: Stick it in my butt crack so I don't forget it.
Tink: *Shrug* Ok.
Hoop: No. No! Not really!
Tink: You shouldn't tease me like that.

Daily Hoop Conversation 2:
Hoop: Shit!
Tink: What's wrong?
Hoop: My shirt just ripped.
Tink: Do you have any others clean?
Hoop: Nope.
Tink: Just tell them you did it in the car.
Hoop: Smart thinking!
Tink: We really need to get you more clothes.
Hoop: I know.
Tink: Because that excuse is only going to work one time.

Pimp My Award:
Ginni Dee gave me the "E" award last Friday and (like the slacker that I am) I'm just now getting around to acknowledging it. So, thank you Ginni!

As is customary, I'm passing this prestigious award on to the below 10 people:
(Jebus... TEN?)
Butterfly Girl
Penelope Anne
Sparkling Red
Flutter
Knight
Gary
Reb
Tequila Mockingbird
LL
Scarlet Blue

P.S. The WWC words for next Tuesday have been reposted. They are SMOOTH and ROUGH. Espieglerie and Monkeyshine were just my lame attempt at an April Fool's joke. Although, if you'd like to try your skill on either, I'll give you 20 extra spork points! Which are good for absolutely nothing besides bragging rights. Ah well.

a work key in the butt is worth two in the bush.

Time to get Hoop more shirts.

Hoop either needs more shirts or to learn how to sew. Maybe that little sewing kit they sell on those commercials? What do they call that thing? Something like Easy Stitch? Yeah, I think that's it. He needs one of those for his birthday. He'll love it. ;-)

Thanks Tink! You Rock! I'm going for those wwc bonus points cause I already have some crafty ideas. The April Fools worked on me if only because I had to look the words up.
Is it sad that I assumed he really wanted the key safely kept in his crack? I mean, it's not like he has a purse to put it in.

Oh no - and there I was working on Monkeyshine!

Fooled me :)

monkeyshine sounds rude, somehow

I am up for the challenge of all 4 words...I promise to play this week.
Thanks for the award love, you know I needed that.

Yeah, will you buy Hoop some clothes and a keychain.

Espieglerie also means "mischievous trick". Monkeyshine means, "prank". ;)

I couldn't find Espieglerie on dictionary.com, so thanks for the definition! I may take up the challenge.
Thought of you yesterday when I bought a mix-it-yourself salad at the grocery store (chicken, feta, cranberry, walnut, and greens YUM!) because lovingly packed inside was a tiny SPORK. I guess they really wanted me to feed the salad to a baby or something. Or maybe it was meant for Tinkerbell?

I loved your reverse vacation post!! Absolutely great! minus the drunk guy, that disturbed me as well..

You totally fooled me. I am so gullible. Woe.

 
At 03 April, 2008, Blogger Reb said...

Hoop shouldn't tease you about things like that - really! You might want to look into expanding his wardrobe by the sounds of things. As long as it doesn't involve taking closet space from you though.

Thank you for the award (blush)!

Monkeyshine always sounds like "moonshine", but made by monkeys. After the infinite number of monkeys finish writing Shakespeare's "Hamlet", they'll come up with a really good corn liquor recipe. Now THAT'S a WWC picture I'd love to see.

I've been thinking of doing a pic or two of those crazy words... so far I'm stumped! But, everyone likes bragging rights!

Fun conversations - and congrats on the award!

E for Excellent? Awwww Tinkie... I've just got one thing to say to that...

HAVE YOU EVEN READ MY BLOG!!!??? Because if you had... well... there's no way it's in the E category... :P

I'm thinking this is a sympathy spork or something like it. ;)

Oh... and I'm eagerly awaiting the next chapter in the Twisted Tink saga. Just sayin'...

Smooth and rough. OK, I'll do my best. I'm kind of rusty...

AGAIN, You are too cute!

So, kinda' glad about the new words because I was gonna' "totally" make up the scenes I pic'ed for the old words.

But, are you really offering 20 extra spork points? Cuz' I'm still not quite sure how to win a spork award (could I donate to the cause?) LOL!

Smooth and Rough, immediately made me think...ME!!! think...dirty. Hmmm.

Yea, then the unsanded wood project and granite crossed my mind...why weren't those my first thoughts...sooooo, unlike me.

 
At 03 April, 2008, Blogger Christy said...

No Etsy pick?

Wow. Hoop is a tease because he second guessed the key in the arse idea. lol. I wonder what that makes me when I wink at people. hehehe.

 
At 03 April, 2008, Blogger Jo said...

Talk about hide-a-key!

I missed the prank, I was thinking it was just more twisted Tink :P

furiousball--where do you come up with this stuff?

 
At 04 April, 2008, Blogger Karen said...

Too bad you didn't really get to stick something in Hoops butt crack. That would have been awesome...lol

 
At 04 April, 2008, Anonymous Anonymous said...

I'm sooo flattered! You are so good to me!

I think I heart you!

Hey girl, Long time, no type. Your pictures are fabulous. Hoop is stunninly gorgeous! And you are beautiful of course. Have you gone shopping yet and did the shirt get thrown away? My favorite thing to do to my kids when I see a hole in their socks is to wrip it completely off their feet. They love it.

Yaaaaay! Congratulations to us! I'm bashful and elated all at once.
