Mulled Mud Day, sorta

Happy National Mulled Cider Day and National Mud Pack Day! I've no idea what a mud pack is, so I can only suggest a combination of the two, and that you enjoy a nice steaming mug of mulled mud. Delicious.

Library Book of the Day: Log Cabin Quilts With Attitude.

Oh no you did not just shake that pattern at me, young man! I am eight square feet bigger than you and not afraid of you and your backsass!

Random picture of the day:
How lovely. He's probably enjoying a nice cup of joe, and by joe I mean mulled mud.

Anyway, today's Words are from the Rather Duh-Inspiring category. My comments are in italics! Enjoy! :)

"Chickens don't give milk, they give orange juice!" Oh, is that how that works?

"I have a freckle on my tooth!" Oh yeah? Well I have a tooth on my freckle! Beat that, cowboy!

"They could, like, selectively select people." Or you could just redundantly be redundant. Either or.

Ask A Stupid Question Day!

Happy Ask A Stupid Question Day! Why is it this holiday, you may ask? I would answer by congratulating you on already getting into the spirit of things.

Library Book of the Day:


Banjo of Destiny....what?



Random Picture of the Day:


Well, that is just lovely. And really, really creepy.
 
Anyway, today's Words are from the category of Say What? My comments are in italics! Enjoy! :)

"If I was in a garden gnome shop and she was a garden gnome, I'd be, like, 'I want this one, except it's a garden gnome...' I confuse myself." Don't worry, sunshine, we're plenty confused, too.

"Oh no, my strawberry fell out of my ear!" Well, that's kind of your own fault--strawberries are notorious for causing mischief and refusing to stay put. And it was in your ear because...?

Person 1: "So I figure I'm saving a lot of time of my life by saying 'Welcome' instead of 'You're welcome'...I mean, that's like twenty seconds a day, times 365..."
Person 2: "You're saving your life!" Aaaaand then you just wasted this saved-up time by explaining your master plan...ironic, eh?

Hey, all! Happy...[deep breath] Good Day For Ducks, Bad Day For Painters Day; Monochromatic Monday; Pancake Day; and Fish Amnesty Day. -phew!- Just what these poor fish have done that they need to be granted amnesty, we may never know. Oh, and it's also Something's-Wrong-With-My-Computer-Screen-And-Looking-At-It-Looks-Like-Trying-To-Watch-Something-In-3D-Without-Glasses-On Day...bleh. :P But anyway. Oh, guess what I heard on the radio? So 99.9 was alerting its listeners to what segment was coming up next, then I guess stating their little motto or whatever..."Channel 99.9 Traffic--all hits is how we roll." Ummm, might want to switch that up a little bit...? But that's just me.

Hey, so I used to post the random stories from my job at the library on facebook, but now apparently people think I should blog about them (whether stories I've shelved or stories about shelving)...so check back here for library updates if you wish! :)

Random picture of the day:


How...lovely. Is this a textbook? How To Poke People With Sticks But Only If They're Really, Really Bothering You Otherwise It Looks Like Waaay Too Much Effort?

Weird book of the day:


The Secret World of Lizards. Well, it's not so secret anymore, now is it? Way to go, cowboy.

Anyway, today's WFTH are from the Fairly Mean category. My comments are in italics! Enjoy!

"And your brain controls all that, which is good, because imagine if you guys had to control your own breathing, you'd be like 'beat beat beat wonder what's for lunch--dead.' or 'wonder if he'll text me back--dead.' and then I'd be doing CPR all day long." Glad you care so much.

"The sight of your face makes my eyes burn with the intensity of a thousand suns." So...is that a good thing, or a bad thing? I don't think you've been as clear as you could be on this...

"So, not to point anybody out, but, Nick, whatever you did was wrong." Gee. Thanks.
