Another spooky bow for Thursday

Ah, Thursday!  I used to live for Thursday nights, because that was when TLC would air two of my favorite TV shows.  Medical Detectives was a fairly graphic program about how forensics solved crimes and medical mysteries (the program later went under the name Forensic Files), while Without Warning offered brief rundowns of disasters that usually killed someone and always taught a lesson.  Kinda like an extremely abbreviated version of Seconds From Disaster.  On top of all that, the program that came on before those shows was Trauma:  Life in the E.R., which was also pretty graphic.  Yeah, while my buddies were tuning in for All That or whatever Cartoon Network ran around that time, I was watching people die in a brutal murder, or in a car crash, or in a collapse at some hotel or some bridge that seemed a world away at the time.  Tonight I may watch a couple of episodes of Forensic Files later for old time's sake; "Without a Trace," "Core Evidence," and "Killer Fog" are my favorite episodes.  Yeah...anyway, with that lighthearted little intro out of the way, I present another Halloween bow.  
It's your typical JoJo Bow, with an appropriately decorated cupcake and images of JoJo and her dog BowBow with matching bows.  I tell y'all what, I wouldn't mind having bows like the ones JoJo and the cupcake are wearing, just simple colors that can be worn outside of Halloween.  How hard could it be?

I don't know if any of y'all ever had Halloween parties or "Harvest" parties at school, but for us it was an excuse to get high on sugar BEFORE Halloween.  Inevitably there was candy and goodies galore, and someone always supplied cupcakes.  Here is where I deviate from the norm.  Everyone loves chocolate cake, right?  I like chocolate cake too, but when it comes to cupcakes my favorite flavor is plain old vanilla.  I don't know why, but that's always been my favorite, especially when it has the colored spots baked inside.  I may get some cupcakes to celebrate Halloween this year.

Charms and cupcakes,

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

Image
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...
