Happy Holidays!

Laundry, vacation style

5 people, an airplane and 1 checked piece of luggage leads you to this in three days...

How the hell am I going to carry all that crap down to the laundry room? Oh, no, I do not want help from those Pigs. I want time alone.

I loaded it up in my suitcase of course. Check the cute crochet flower I made. Hand spun yarn. Yes, my luggage is camouflage green with orange trim. Did you expect anything less?

So, my tips for travel:
1. Travel light
2. Obnoxious colored luggage
3. loud luggage marker (home spun yarn with crochet flowers optional)
4. Bring your own laundry detergent-Purex 3-1 sheets 20 loads $5. I don't want to do 20 loads, but I have that option. Plus, the Pigs have been know to barf a place or two, so I like to be prepared. Plus, sometimes I get barfed on by other people's kids.
5. Suck it up and throw the dirty ass laundry into your luggage and roll it down to the laundry room.



I pretended that I was on the phone with someone the whole way, and walked like I was Ginger from Gilligan's Island. Just to make laundry on vacation fun.

Then I went and had a lovely dinner with my family.


Ok, maybe it was a rowdy dinner with my family! Either way, it was fun! After, I went back to the peace and quiet of the laundry room and worked on knitting the Clap, oh, and the laundry.

Scarfy in Florida...

Here I am in lovely Florida. Note the scarf.

Do you know what scarf that is? It's the Print O' the Wave, wait that's too hard I'll do the Morning Glory Shawl! Yeah, the one you thought I'd frogged. No! Like learning to spin, I worked on it in secret! Yes, I knit on it like Mike, like a Pro, with my tongue out. Which if you are a NBA superstar, you can defend the tongue sticking out, but if you are a rather shitty knitter, the tongue thing just looks stupid. Thus, knit at home with snot.

Here you so Pigs, Pigs in line, being Pigs, wearing eye searing yellow t shirts.

Unlike many other families, I like to keep an eye on my pigs, and try to not lose them. The yellow shirts work like a charm.


I was also easy to spot. I had the scarf and a jacket on. I did fit with one other group...The French. They too had sassy scarves. The accepted me with open arms. That is until I started yelling at them with my horri-ble American memory of 9th grade French class "Tu est mal! Tu est mal! Tu est mal!" While a group of them were taking photos on the Spaceship Earth ride. Yeah, that translates to you are badly. Badly what? Badly annoying me with your illegal flash photography!

Well, now we are home and I have a bad case of the Clap...otis. It's another scarf. But luckily my sweet friend Linda took pity on my soul and this was waiting for me when I got home...


Sunday's outfit

Monday's Outfit

No Michigan Zombie Slayer's Outfit is complete without proper gear! Thanks again Linda!!

Bon Jour!

I'm back. I've got a foul mouth, and a low tolerance for princesses. The only Disney princess worth saving is Belle and technically, she is neither a princess, nor savable, she saves her damn self.

I bet she knits too. I bet she knits crappy, she doesn't have time for perfection! Also, she has a beast, I bet she knits with SNOT!!

Now, back to whatever it is a do regularly...

Ok, we had a blast. But some of my favorite parts were mean.

1. Dad called his daughter, in full $80 princess dress "Princess". Daughter age 5, took swig of soda, gargled it and yelled "I'm no Princess! I'm a ruddy Pirate!!" True. I almost peed.

2. On Nemo and friends ride, another princess screamed bloody murder. I couldn't help but laugh.

3. Nose picking in princess dresses. Priceless.

and number 4...

3 year old boy pissing on a tree while we walked to the mono rail. Who says there is no spontaneity at Disney.

Favorite Rides

1. Expedition Everest...even the time it broke down and we got walked off. It was like a behind the scenes ride!

2. Fantasmic-I wanted the villains to win.

3. Phillharmagic. That crap cracks me up! If you ever get a chance to sit next to Pig 2 during that, pure actual joy laughter.

4. Jungle Cruise-I would love to be a skipper on that ride. Look, the back side of water...O2H. Funny stuff.

5. All of Epcot.

Last night

Pigs at barf inducing ride w ogre. Im waiting for the magic of a stiff
drink. You offer free dining and suddenly everyone is willing to take
their kids out of school.

Like knit with love, only more fun. Did I mention the Ogre, 3 Little
Pigs and the occasional zombie?

Hey!

I may not be able to respond on Twitter...but I can read.
Two things:
1. Ralphe from the Koffee Klutch is mine.
2. Don't teach Wonder Why Gal to knit right...or I'll
have to get a new person to knit with snot aka like crap.
