I am so glad you are still enjoying the lotions (when you can arm wrestle them away from mom). I told you they are the best there is.
I think I must be the adopted triplet, as I too wear tunics outside and not always with pants. Usually only after dark or before sunrise, but once while outside during the day I could not resist picking dandelions out of the front yard. One led to another and so on. After about half an hour my roommate dashed out the front door and said "While I admire your efforts here please keep facing the street because 'Moon Over Miami' is now on the playlist." Talk about em-bare-a**ed!

Love your car story. I have one similar but without the Marvelous Marvin. I was going to the Prom with my cohort from the mascot kidnapping incident. I had been to the hairdresser's earlier to have my waist length locks curled and put in ringlets atop my head. I said no ratting and not too pouffy. Three hours later get home, look in the mirror and a blonde Marge Simpson is staring back at me! Hastily I comb it out and re-pin my hair, none too securely atop my head. I have only minutes to don my custom made dress from my great Gramma the tailor. My date picks me up in his Volkswagon bug. We go to the dance and on the way home decide to take the long way around scenic drive. We were laughing so hard at a joke he had made that he lost control of the car and went into a very deep ditch. In the middle of nowhere we both hop out and manage to struggle the car back on the road. In the process I tear my dress and my hair is in total disarray. We race to my house as I am now late for my curfew. I am met and the door by my Grandparents and well...bet you can guess what kind of reception I got!

Kids sure have their own interpretation of language. After a hard day at the escrow office I would often come home with my pantyhose pooled around my ankles. My daughter would say "Mommy, your wan*les have winkles." She also insisted on calling ears earballs. She reasoned that there were eyeballs and so we had earballs too. How do you argue with that logic? (Boy they censor the weirdest stuff)
I love the riddles and jokes. Thank you so much. So now my favorite joke of all time. A little risque but so be it.
There was a shy and reserved young man who was enamored of a rather brash, cynical girl who had been around the block a time or two. He finally worked up the courage to ask her out. She accepted. Wanting to make a good impression he showed up at her door with a dozen red roses. She immediately declared "I suppose now I will have to lay on my back for a week with my legs in the air!" Puzzled he responded "You don't have a flower vase?"
You're a treasure...
Beyond measure!!
