Ummmmmm

I have so many comments for this, but for now, I will keep them to myself.

Happy Tuesday, arty friend!

Karen said...

Okay, I can't keep them ALL to myself:

Can you lick it?

bobbione8y said...

i'm sure you could if you wanted.

you don't like contemporary art much, do you?


:) i will continue to press you forward, my friend.

Karen said...

Oh, geez. Ask Carey about the Monet debacle..

Press on, and best of luck with that. :-)

Monet? didn't he paint haystacks? i fell asleep when they talked about him in art history class :)

Karen said...

I will surely be smiling all day long, Bob. State on a stick. What on earth will they think of next? If you can make a living selling states on sticks, HOW on earth am I not the hottest blogging sensation ever???

I was at the gym this morning with the uber-stylish Melissa, and I made the mistake of mocking the horribly ugly and enormous bow on the front of the anchorwoman's sweater. She looked at me pityingly and just shook her head. I think I'm hopeless, 'cause if that was fashion, I want no part of it.

he he. ask Lou about ruffles, and my rant about how silly they are! i am not so good at current fashions, even if i understand the concept of states on a stick.

life is hard, isn't it?

Karen said...

There is a concept to lollystates?

I think I have to get one, as a guaranteed smile-inducer. It's not even just a smile. That thing makes me laugh.

Ruffles are for little girls, tell Lou I said so.

Ok, I have to admit, I like it:) And regarding the comment about falling asleep in art history, did you take that class at SDSU? I had art history in the museum there in a dark round room ALWAYS fell asleep. I had to borrow someone else's notes because mine ended up being unreadable

bobbione8y said...

yes, Cher, yes!!

i believe it was Norman Gambill, who could put the perkiest person to sleep - but dang, that room was COZY.....zzzzzzzzzzzzz.

Karen said...

I KNEW Cher would like it!

carey said...

cherk said...

See, Carey gets it, it is the color that totally makes it! Ahhh good old Norman, where is his calm soothing voice, and good ole' click of the slide show when I need a good sleep...
