Thursday’s Adventures

Kristin, Kimber, Kelly, Tabitha and I spent Thursday in Brookside and the City River Market. Wandered a wide vari­ety of stores. Select anecdotes:

1) Peacock feath­ers make excel­lent hair accessories.

2) Kristin uses odd phrases. For exam­ple, “Hug Butt!” This can be, and was, uti­lized in a sen­tence such as: “We might have to call Kimber and tell her to hug butt!” Excellent in sit­u­a­tions call­ing for one car to fol­low another closely. Another sam­ple phrase is “Criminy Pete!” Sadly, I am weak. When in a small, enclosed space (like a car) and handed two choice phrases, I am left to rearrange words and make use of excel­lent inflec­tion con­trol. For exam­ple, “Criminy, Pete hugs butt!” or, “Pete, hug Criminy’s butt!” More sadly, I am com­pelled to voice these obser­va­tions aloud. This causes Kristin, the dri­ver in the sam­ple sit­u­a­tion, to laugh and swerve her vehi­cle, caus­ing Kimber/Tabitha to call and be con­fronted with Pete’s fas­ci­na­tion with crim­iny butts.
