Penguin Week

Wow Penguin Week. I am more partial to Puffins, but I settled on being a Penguin for Halloween. When I bought the costume, I asked the guy ar the store if he thought it would fit me. He says, "well it says if fits most adults". I say, "well are most adults 235 lbs". We take the costume out of the package, and he says, "well its got some stretch to it". I take it and here I am.

And here is my possessed cat.

You look great!

And you have a park bench in your living room! Is that the norm, or did you bring it in for a party. I really like the idea of a park bench inside.

That is the norm. I actually put it together myself. Whenever I see a park bench, I think wow I know how to put that together. I had to replace my loveseat and instead of investing in expensive furniture that my cats could ruin, I invested in a $90 park bench.

I use Hayneedle.com. Hayneedle actually has better prices on some items then Overstock.com or Target.

Hayneedle is where I ordered the bench that is in my living room.

I also usehttp://www.accent-furniture-direct.com/Accent-Entryway-and-Storage-Benches-C9081.html

I really like it, too.

When I was about ten, my mom rescued a pew from a church that was being remodelled and put it along one long wall in our diningroom. I thought it was weird at first, but now realize the benfit of having a big long bench inside where your kids can take on and off their shoes, extra seats for guests, etc.

And your costume's really cute, too!

people! The important question here is


'what's in the bowl on the table?'


Did you make Pingu noises whilst you were Penguined up?

LOL Jo
I saw that picture earlier today and was wondering the same thing about that bowl.

If I had to guess I would guess that it was filled with this fun-sized goodness...

Hey, I LIVED on a bench throughout childhood, mother effer!
It was wrought iron and channeled the cold right to your bones in the wintertime but I was happy to have it. You know why?
Because other kids only had those boingy animal shapes on springs to sit on and the animal shapes had long since fallen apart so all they had was a spring!
"But daddy, I wanted a lion"
Too bad! We can't afford a lion since the operation to fix your bent spine put your mother and I in the poor house! Now go sit on your spring and pretend it's a lion, home wrecker!

You be right. The bowl contains butterfingers. I was going to put real fingers in the bowl, but I wanted to save those for special treat after everyone left.


Too funny Jiggy!

Yeah right Rory! You have taking too many drugs sweetheart! My boys are going to embarass your boys on their own home ice!
