So... those of us who know and love our Tracy, know she has a thing about numbers. She hates being #13 when commenting so doing post #666 was enough to send her looking for a priest and dunking herself in a pool full of holy water. She rethought the pool since it's winter in West Virginia and she is not fond of frostbite.
Then she came up with a great idea, why not ask me, the resident evil Queen of the Anti-Socialites, to take the bullet for her.
Near as I can tell, my seat in hell was reserved back when I was about 11 and I talked my two younger brothers into ditching summer school. 2 days in a row. Except my brother Dan was a big wimpy momma's boy so he didn't ditch the second day and then tattled (I still owe you a good kick in the assteroid for that one, Dan!).
Anyway, now that we have established I have no fear, I'd like to tell you guys about my day. And you'll read it because I will take you down to helltown as my guests if you don't.
Go over to Tracy's and read:
The adventures of Bee, the inept baby-sitter!
P.S.
Sunday is the last day to let me know if you want to join the Secret Santa Can Suck It! *Gift* Swap, round two.
I have a couple of people who were in round one who would like to be in round two. That is coolio, yo!
Email me at beesmusings[at]gmail.com to join.
Here are the rules:
I tell you who your victim is and you post a picture (or pictures) of what you would have given them as their Secret Santa if you cared, had money, knew them etc. Only rule is no naked people.
Who you got should not be revealed until the assigned day so that everybody is surprised.
FIRST!
ReplyDeleteOf course, if they'd asked a Mathematician they might have come up with 2197 as the Number Of the Beast instead...
Oh Brian, you are such a know it all.
ReplyDeleteYou know, all of your math questions and posts have me wondering, are you a mathematician?
And why 2197? Now wait, I won't understand.
Ok, tell me.
Bee,
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!!
And the post that you wrote was so funny! Now I have a lot to live up to!
Ummm... Brian? I'm not good with numbers and all but I can't help think that 2197 is an anagram for 1972.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure it's just my imagination because you wouldn't be implying that I'm the Beast, would you????
Tracy:
ReplyDeleteI just thought that 13 13 13 would be unluckier than 6 6 6, and
13 x 13 x 13 = 2197
So nothing to do with Bee's age after all.
At my church they store the holy water in the hot tub during the winter - allegedly so it won't freeze.
ReplyDeleteI'm in for the second secret santa! That was fun!!
ReplyDeleteLIAR !!!!
ReplyDeleteI got in my truck today.
ReplyDeleteThe trip odometer read 66.6
Know what happened?
NOOOOTHINGGG!
BOOOGA BOOGA!
Friday the 13th is always a lucky day fOr me. When one comes up i ALWAYS THINK, yay, IT'S GONNA BE A GREAT DAY!
ReplyDeleteHere's the deal on superstition, YOU make it bad or good. The ladder and black cat really dont give a rat's ass.
I live with a black cat, and had a great year when he was 13. I doubt he'll live to be 666 years old, but I routinely walk under ladders with him, and have stepped on cracks in pavement, broken a mirror, and tested any number of other superstitions. So far, no troubles.
ReplyDeletelet's shake on it
ReplyDeleteYou know, paranoia ruin lives. Anyway, 656 is the real number of the beast. Wikipedia doesn't lie. So if her paranoia is justified, too late, your going to hell anyway :P
ReplyDeleteI wanna go to Darryl church.....mine doesn't have a hot tub. What up with that?
ReplyDeleteAnd Bri made me vomit with all of the number talk.
Bee, I hope I wasn't too late to join the fun in gift exchange, got back late last night and didn't get on the PC until this morning. But hey, the boys won!
