A Little Ditty (Scroll Down for the Rest of the Story)
Forgive me as I get a little sentimental here on my blog towards the end of the school year. (I know: gag!) For some of you, school has ended. But for those of us who are still in session, (those snow days are a thorn in my side right now....didn't that happen just a couple of posts ago?) I can't help sharing my favorite childhood memory that took place on the last day of school while riding the bus home.
To most of you, there will be no excitement in this whatsoever. You'll have to keep in mind that I grew up in Hickesville, U.S.A. (which is kind of ironic because I just replanted myself in another Hickesville, U.S.A.) If I wouldn't have married my husband, I probably wouldn't have been able to write or speak English properly. Thanks to his family, I can even splel now. :)
So, here we go. Now warm up those vocal chords people, I want you singing from the top of your lungs.....
A hundred bottles of b......
Now, wait just a minute, I'm going to have to do the clean version of this song or else I'll be reprimanded by Miss Etiquette.
A hundred bottles of coke on the wall, a hundred bottles of coke, you take one down, pass it around, 99 bottles of coke on the wall......

Anon - - - when you are making a new post, at the bottom of the box form in which you write, there is a little button that says something like "options" - - - if you click on that, a place opens up where you can set it to say whatever time you want it to say!!! (Date too - that's how I have added things in to a long post after the fact)

I just checked - - - it is a blue button and it says "post options"
So - - - have lots of fun with the time stamp.

I probably can't go back and undo it, can I?
That really stinks because I had the entire song timed just perfectly so that when it was the halfway mark, the time should have shown that. Oh well.
.....a tad on the perfectionist side.....I take after my Cool Sis.

Yes, you can change it now. I've done it many times to make pictures line up in the order I want them to go.

You're so creative. Happy end of the school year to you!
Adam still has 3 days.
I left a comment for you on my blog in response to your comment. :o)

I happen to like hicksville - besides you think you have it bad. When you are constantly trying to dodge horse droppings on the road then we can talk about hicksville!:)
Favorite cousin

Okay, okay. Yes, your little corner of the world does take the cake for Hickesville. It's pretty though.
That was funny!

I didn't forget your birthday. I thought of you but knew you were gone. Hope it was happy. :)

I'm expecting a post now that you are back - you could actually just copy and paste your comment from mine - that was a mini post in itself. I wish I could have been there to see it. Actually, I've been with you in a semi-confrontive situation (Super 8) - I'm glad I wasn't there.

If you need an official announcement, then YOU ARE TAGGED!!!
(I tagged all of my links on my post, but I didn't officially "tag" anyone on their own blog - sorry, I got lazy. Oh, and I've commented on your other posts just to make the comments uneven.)

That's more like it.
I thought in the game of tag, you are suppose to say "Tag, you're it!" ????
I give you my fun little first fact: I hate doing things like this.

I guess it doesn't bother you that the rest of your comments are uneven - or maybe you just took a little break?

I'm supposed to be planting flowers right now.
I hope you caught all of my comments on your first post - I was anxiously awaiting to see what you were going to delete - I was one post ahead of you - I think I accidentally made one of your posts uneven again because I posted right after you - since I am such a nice person, I will leave another comment on it to even it up.

hahahaha, very funny
Please, go plant your flowers.
Some people are so annoying.
