MAGA

Yesterday's meeting went alright, but regardless of outcome dealing with the superiors put me in an inflammatory mood, and the ridiculously hot heat hasn't helped my mood much.  LOL, alliteration!   Anyway, today's bow is arguably my most controversial bow.  
I voted for Trump, and I'd do it again.  Sue me.  LOL, kinda ironic considering that I was extolling the virtues of kindness yesterday.  Despite what the lamestream media will tell you, Trump supporters are fully capable of being kind if given the chance.  Indeed, one of my favorite things to do is give a sad friend a big fat hug, regardless of who they voted for!  Anyway, the Etsy shop was CheerBowFactoryInc, and big surprise, they appear to be defunct.  If you swing to the left Etsy has options for you too.

Okay, enuff soapboxing.  The meeting actually went very well; we talked about a whole bunch of stupid rules that the state of Missouri is putting in place for libraries, and if we don't follow 'em TO THE BOOK then we lose our funding.  It was clear that our bosses weren't any happier about it than we were, and their job was just to pass the message along from the state to us.  Don't kill the messenger, right?  As an aside, the creep who put all these Big Brother laws into effect will be running for governor, AND HE AIN'T GETTIN' MY VOTE!!!  I don't care if he's got an R, a D, an I, or a G beside his name.

Ah well, whatever will be will be.  Last night I heard the season's first bottle rocket, which is kinda late for that sort of thing.  Usually I'm hearing fireworks around the first day of summer, but either my neighbors just don't give a crap or I'm not paying close enuff attention...or a little of both.  As I stated last week I'm not a huge fan of bottle rockets...or firecrackers...or ANYTHING that's all blow and no show.  Hell, what's the point of noise if there's not something pretty to go with it???  I'll make an exception with snappers, though.  Y'know, these things.
I freaking love these things.  My sister and I used to stockpile these in our bedrooms and then go outside with a box or two when we got bored and have some noisy fun.  Being the ornery older sister that I am my favorite thing to do was throw them at my sister's sandal-shod feet (her equally ornery boyfriend encouraged this shenanigan).  As with all fireworks there'd be a dud or two in the mix, one that wouldn't go off when we dropped it, and inevitably Mama would find it when she went out to start the car.  She'd either step on it or roll over it with the car, and she'd come back in later and say "I found one of your little snappy things out there."  But no, these were all noise and no show, but they were still a lot of fun.  I wonder if the fireworks stands still carry 'em???  I haven't been to one of the stands in ages, so I wouldn't know.  If any of y'all know for a fact, let me know!

Love and flash-bang,

Let freedom ring

Image
Yet another patriotic one.  This one came from Etsy, but I don't know what shop it was. This one is one of three that my mother got for me in one fell swoop.  The others are the jellybean bow from June 3rd and the flag bow from June 14th . Like them, this bow is a big one. Let freedom ring, baby!  I remember sharing my memories of Flag Day, but I don't remember sharing memories of the Fourth of July...at least, not here.  Oh, I've got so many!  Halloween is my mother's favorite holiday, and Independence Day was my dad's for reasons unknown.  May have had something to do with his love for history.  But anywho, about April Daddy would start setting aside a little money here and there for fireworks, and as July 4th rolled around he'd buy fireworks with that money.  A few here, a few there, a whole sh!tload at Reeve's Boomland in Charleston...oh, Boomland.  I liked going there, but as I grew older I began to realize that it was kinda a dangerous...

Pac-Man fever

For the record, I suck at Pac-Man.  I've only played it a handful of times, but each time I couldn't get past the first level.  I guess it's one of those games that requires practice and patience...and patience is NOT one of my virtues!  Regardless, I do like Pac-Man.  Compared to the dumb video games we have today Pac-Man's simple innocence is...well, it's pretty nice.  Unfortunately I'm about to make myself look like a complete hypocrite, because my Pac-Man is munching more than just little white pellets! Phooey on pellets and fruit and ghosts, Pac-Man's hitting the hard stuff!  The Etsy carrier, DollfaceDesignss , goes heavy on the horror, so I guess Pill-Popper Pac-Man is kinda tame compared to Psycho .  Whatevs, I like my accessories a little (or a lot) on the offbeat side, so I'm happy.  This is a mighty nice bow, by the way.  Some of my bows pull my hair like mad, but this one slid right in. In addition to the goofy hair bow I've gone ...

International Sloth Day

Y'all know what that means! I think I've worn and shown this bow before (shop name is CherylsBowtasticBows ), but it's one of my favorites because SLOTHS, that's why!  I don't think I ever showed y'all my earrings, though. Those also came from Etsy (shop name is JMDesignsbyUS ), and they're made of wood.  JMDesigns is located in Sedalia, so usually when I order from them I get my item(s) toot sweet.  I never have been to Sedalia, by the way.  They seem to be a tornado magnet, having been hit in 1952, 1973, 1977, and 1980, so maybe I'd best NOT go.  The tornado in 1952 hit the Missouri State Fair, by the way.  Normally it's a bad thing for a tornado to hit during the night, but in that case it was a very good thing, as the fairgrounds were fairly empty.  Indeed, the only fatality in the 1952 storm was in a mobile home, not on the fairgrounds.  But enuff of that; this is supposed to be about sloths, not tornadoes!  If you've read my doll blog t...
