Do it ourselves

tape measure Man, at checkout in bricolage: And these please.
Checkout lady: Four steel tape measures?
Man: Yes, that’s right.

After he’s paid, he turns solemnly to the three children waiting for him.

Man: Right, I’m giving you each one of these. It’s not a toy. Your job is to wait until I’ve lost mine, and then lend me yours.

    Ooh That’s a great idea! I should do that with my little magnifying loupes I take to auctions.

    Now where to buy the children in the first place, that’s trickier …

    It’s bad enough you got me NaNoWriMo’ing. (over 6400 now, but my plot (or continuing lack of) stinks enough to include Horace the Cheese. :( )

    Well, I just thought I would make a confeshun.

    I DO have a blog. It’s just that is only about bread, and not losing weight, so I didn’t think of it in terms of proper Blogdom. Like this one and Bran’s.

    Maybe it will mutate into an interesting little number post-NaNo when I feel that I still need to write? Whachuthink?

    Here it is in its baby blogitude…
