That's the one.Well.
FOR NO GOOD REASON!
I got another package from Our Name Is Mud. I mean, I was thrilled beyond imagination when I got two coffee mugs (which I now use as often as I can, they are my favorite things to drink out of, make everything taste better) AND a fancy platter, which tonight will be used to carry Pizza Puffs to my table (Pillsbury crescents rolled with peperoni and mozzarella, dippable).
BUT, By Golly Miss Molly - a second package.

This is my new favorite clock, as scene on my very own kitchen counter:
My logical, analytical, and mostly reasonable oldest son just didn't quite get it:
Crichton: This "Whatever Clock"? How are we supposed to know what time it is?
Me: That's the point. You think, "What time is it?" You look at the clock. "Whatever." Because it doesn't really matter.
C: We could put stickers on it...
M: That would defeat the purpose of my clock.
He takes it to the table to examine it further.
C: Well, when it's pointing at the "t" it's twelve o'clock and when it's pointing at the 6 it's kind of six o'clock.
M: Yeah, you just have to kind of guess the time. That's why it's so cool.
Continues evaluating the usefulness of a clock that makes it hard to tell time.
C: "Why can't we put some stickers on it?!"
Maybe someday he'll understand. I can't decide if I want to put the clock in my bedroom, as originally planned, or out in a main room so everyone can see my passion for randominity.
I have 14 clocks in my 11 room home, but only one is my favorite. Sorry melty clock, you've been replaced in my heart (and for the record, melty clock SUCKED at keeping time!)
I would not tell you to buy junk from people if I didn't love the junk they sent me for free. And y'know, I used to think not the nicest of thoughts about certain incredibly popular bloggers who always get free stuff and blog about how great it is, but I take those mean thoughts back.
Almost nothing in the whole universe is better than getting a package in the mail.
Thank you Lorrie Veasey!
5 Brilliant Bits of Inspiration:
I just checked out your melty clock post, and I LOVE your hair like that. Very cute.
I like your hair short like that too. Very cute.
LOVE the melty clock! AND the whatever clock! Both very very cool!
yes, they are all correct, your short hair rocked! Cool clock! I have this great clock that has this weird mona lisa looking face, but its the sun, and it has Copper rays coming out of it, but the face on it is expressionless, not what you'd expect of a sun. I love it, but it freaks my boyfriend out, so I'm not allowed to put it up in the house :(
Whew---you had me worried. For a second there I thought you might tell me your People are only allowed to tell time by looking at sundials :) LOL. tell your munchkin he is destined for GREAT THINGS because he sounsd exactly like my boss. Except she would whine a bit more and then you'd end up putting the stickers on it just to make her happy and then she would ask a week later whose idea it was to put stickers on it and...oops. I digress. You Are Welcome. Enjoy.
Becky, Britt, j4luck - Thank you, but I sha'nt be cutting my hair until I am ready for old lady hair or get bored or depressed. It could only make it look cute 1 out of five days.
Lorrie - Given our aptitude for being on-time, you wourld THINK that Mormons use sun-dials, but no, we're just late. (except me, I'm always prompt)
