Decisions, decisions

Today is both American Frog Day and Sesame Street Day, so I had to pick one or the other.  Since I just wore my frog bow recently I opted for Sesame Street . I don't have a bow with Oscar the Grouch on it, not yet.  I do have some Sesame Street-themed nail polishes, though, and one of them IS modelled after Oscar the Grouch (I've also got Bert, Ernie, and Cookie Monster).  I think I've said before that Oscar the Grouch is my favorite Sesame Street muppet.  I even scrawled that on the back of one of my high school notebooks:  "I LOVE OSCAR THE GROUCH!" in big, goofy letters. And today, I still do!  Cookie Monster is a close second. Love and muppets, RagingMoon1987

Return of the button bow

Button Day = button bow. It's chilly and gray outside today, so something bright and soft is welcomed.   Love, RagingMoon1987

Corny

After a long absence the crocheted corn dog is making a reappearance. I was able-bodied the last time I wore this, so it's been awhile.  I'd gone into Rhodes to pick up some junk food, and the cashier saw it and commented on it.  I think he thought I'd lost my mind, and he wasn't too far off.  I'm kinda like Calvin from Calvin and Hobbes , in that I let my mind wander and ended up losing it. I was about Calvin's age, too (he's supposed to be six in the comics).  I don't miss it much; being a little crazy is more fun than being standard. Happy Guy Fawkes Night to any British readers out there.  Have fun and be careful! Love, RagingMoon1987

Interesting timing!

Today is National Candy Day, so I picked one of my louder bows. I wonder why today is National Candy Day, so soon after Halloween, but not IMMEDIATELY after???  I'd think that Day of the Dead could double as National Candy Day, but I'm not the one inventing these holidays so...yeah.  Speaking of Day of the Dead, Fayetteville, Arkansas ran a community event for deceased pets, and my sister and her husband participated. Y'all can't see it too well, but the decedent is a black pug named Ozzy.  Sister and BIL adopted him from a local family and had him...'bout four years before he died.  He wasn't the brightest dog in the world, but he was a good, sweet, chill dog.  The whole family grieved when he went over the Rainbow Bridge. Random chatter for a blog, but I managed to kill eleven minutes.  Love, RagingMoon1987 

Jellyfish and rain

Image
It's supposed to pour today, and it's Jellyfish Day, so I wore my blue jelly bow... ...and my jellyfish earrings.  Mama loves these. My nails are NOT jelly, but rather some stuff by Sinful Colors. This is called "Burn Rubber," and it has a unique rubber texture.  I thought I read somewhere that these rubber-style polishes were not popular, but I think it's cool.  Not slick like my last mani, but not sandpapery like Zoya Pixie Dust either.  For the record, I do like Zoya Pixie Dust.  I don't recommend applying three coats of this, by the way, as three hours after I put it on it still was soft.  My right hand has major sheet marks now. Now we wait and see if the forecast holds true! Jelly love, RagingMoon1987 

Halloween 2026

Image
It's that time of year again, and thank God, it's a Saturday.  I can go straight home tonight, hide from the kids, and sleep late tomorrow.  Yes, I love Halloween, and I'd love to be in the right physical form to hand out candy, but the chairs on our porch aren't the most comfortable.  Still, I'm in the holiday spirit with this JoJo Bow... ...and my "Fear the Living" mani.  I may try to get one more week outta this one. Pity my bow has no green, or it would match my nails nicely.  Oh well, it don't have to match. Today looks to be at least somewhat rainy, but like Fourth of July I've never known a Halloween that was a complete washout.  Heck, if it rained my friends would be loaded in the car and they'd be driven to Trick-or-Treat locations, rain be durned.  I figure that's what they'll do this year if it rains.  As for me, I'm staying home where it's warm and dry.  I've got chocolate, YouTube, and my mama, and it's gonn...

Waka-waka-waka!

No, not Fozzie Bear.  I wore my Pac-Man bow today! Pill-Popper Pac-Man, that is!  Mama got us both a shirt that has Pac-Man on it, so this bow may make more frequent appearances in the future.  Love, RagingMoon1987
