Friday Haiku: Smootchy Wootchy

Father will kill us!

We must stop meeting like this

Now or never kiss


Cocoa & Chip take the kissing booth way too seriously, Miriam S.

Knitting for Beginneuws

We know you like to see pets enjoying their sweateuws. You will loff these!

It’s a sweateuw, it’s a tube, it’s a sweatube top!


And doubles as a tea cozy!


I look like Cliff Huxtable.


Savannah O., with the help of her sister Jillian, made tiny sweaters for their guinea pigs, Heart (brown), Fiona (white) and Indiana (calico).

Today’s the Day. Tell Someone You Loff Them.

Peeps—someday—when we look back on our lives, it will be the precious moments we savor; so perfect, so rare, so tender—grab your teddy bear! This is one of those moments!

A HEAD. WITH FEET. THAT’S IT.

And Don’t You Forget It

Orville Poindexter…


…Toilet Plunger Sitting Champion of 1963.


And he’s been there ever since. (gently picks off cobweb)


Sender-Inners Kate and Jeff have the interesting back story here: “So it’s 6 am Friday morning, and we’re sleeping off the Thanksgiving dinner, when we awake to the doggie door flapping and a squeak. This is our occasional wake-up call, unfortunately. Our foster kitty, Rook, is of that just-older-than-a-kitten age, and learning to hunt. She likes to bring in her prey so she can play with it in the comfort of home. We don’t appreciate her gifts, so we always chase them down ourselves, catch them, and release them back outside—they’re usually unharmed, besides being scared.

I get up to find the mouse, and fairly quickly realize that Rook had brought it into the bathroom. This is good. Less places to hide in there. I shoo Rook out of the bathroom and close the door, then go get a tupperware dish to catch it in. When I get back into the bathroom, I look in all the obvious hiding places, but don’t
immediately see it – until I look near the commode. There sits the mouse, not cowering behind the toilet, but up on top of the plunger handle.

I’m glad I got photographic evidence, otherwise I wouldn’t believe it.

Beulah, Peel Me a Grape

Thank you Dahlink for all the ice

But this isn’t the kind I meant.

I don’t mean to give you the cold shoulder but

Diamonds are a girl’s best friend.

Kiss your wife like it would be the last time, and GO GO GO!

Gimme a Z! Gimme a Z! Gimme another Z!

What does it spell?! Zzz!


Looks more like the “Stupor” bowl to me, Sophia Pena-Garza.
