even though we’re moving soon, and boxes are piling high around us, i know exactly where to locate trouble and genius (unless ofcourse i’m mistaking). Subsequently, i found wrapped up ‘taches so easily. i may use ‘em in a x-mas spirit later on this year, now they’re out! follow suite to hallowe’en, in a gimmicky sort of way, no? darn if I’m curious for all those other ‘taches over on tribecayummymummy !!!
do not touch my dome {renov # 7}
la ninja, yo ! and thanks for the walking boots, honey, they got me walking alright! today i also stared at safety boots all day, from the second, the first and the ground floor in the new, old house. i am even temporarily mesmerized by safety walking boots, as worn by connoisseurs!
l. turned up early and we took rides to and fro’ to the recycle park.
the sparks sparking on that … anyway, in between sun and rain and laughter and pain, a small anecdote unfolded. the one where a hysteric voice suddenly screeches ‘don’t touch my dome!’.
the last return from the recycle park did turn sour indeed.in my absence my sweet contractors got verbally abused by my (too close to be good) next door neighbour, for soiling her flat roof with tiny debris and dust in the wind.
moreover, her dome would scratch from flying chips and (unassuming particles of) brick. that wasn’t all. she continued to verbally shoot me down on the pavement, in the presence of son and l. and both contractors, and her husband, and her father-in-law who sprang from nowhere, ‘who knew so much better than me...!’. ahem.
well, from shock towards a solution was needed. to usher one hazy culprit i urged the husband inside my house and pushed him toward debating further in a less agitated way. some husbands do have them, i'll say?
i guess, when renovating, you win some, you lose some. the winner today? my sweet, handsome, sturdy, muscular contractors. the loser? yeah, well, she had it coming. this one's out for a drink, you know? and cheers!
this holy cow
lead singer ian mc cullough once said in an 80’s interview how he didn’t like to slip in the lyrics to ECHO AND THE BUNNYMEN albums, since it took away a good deal of magic. ‘when people just listen in, they hear different things, they hear their own things. surely, someone who’s making the effort to listen in, is allowed his/her own version of the truth’. hey, i may have altered a few stresses in his own words repeat, but i’ve never forgotten the true gest of what mc cullough tried to explain. up to this day, i enjoy making up words and phrases to songs not clearly articulated. moreover i feel comfortable in doing so. it’s how i recently ended up with this holy cow i’m moving out*, which original translation let me down a little. All of a sudden, miss humour left the room. as did the cow, ofcourse (not that the eyes disappointed me in any way, they just restricted my imagination☻).

corner view ≈ humour
taken and posted already last year, i find the snap deserves attention again today. when the scene first caught my eye, i walked past it. then the absurdity struck me to the bone. could i really let go such a delicious occasion of silliness? i smirked at the view, and caught it on my mobile.
i could not track down the rightful owner of this pair either, that clearly felt the part...
