I was informed by Sonja this a.m. before she headed out for school that today is Cabbage's birthday....
Yippeeee!
No.... My daughter doesn't celebrate the sprouting of vegetables like a long lost ritual of an ancient civilization, nor does she carry around a cabbage dressed in baby clothes. We're talkin' about her little cabbage patch doll....her baby.
When I asked her how old "Cabbage" was, she said three. I'm sure that will change throughout the day, just as sure as I am that "Cabbage" will have another birthday (if not two or three) within the following year.
This is the infamous "Cabbage"
Notice the chin strap apparatus.
It reminds me of the old "Little Rascals" movies. You know... the one where Alfalfa has a toothache and he wears a piece of cloth wrapped around his head and jaw, tied in a HUGE bow on the top of his head? Look familiar?
What the heck was that all about anyways? I could never figure out what benefit this cloth thingy could provide to a throbbing, mind numbing toothache? Ah... the olden days....
If someone out there in cyber blogland has the answer to that one, let me know!
Did you notice something missing?
Well, I decided I'd get rid of the "Followers" doo hickey (Sorry Janice). There were a few things that I didn't like about it.
First...when I visit other blogs, I frequently go back and read previous postings, sometimes for clarity, some time for history, and just to be...well....nosy:-) When you log into your account, you get whatever recent update on the blog, but that's it! I may as well just go to the site directly.
Secondly....It kind of made me feel a little Jim Jones(ish?)(ey?) (you know..the guy who headed up the Kool-Aid drinkin' cult, a.k.a. mass murderer in Jonestown?) with "My Followers" being my zombie eyed, hanging on every word, drone-like (click here>) "
disciples" just a little egotistical for my blood.
Now, I'm not saying that people who have this add-on shouldn't, it just didn't sit right with me.
I figure it this way, I will continue to follow the blogs that I always have, and I'm pretty sure those who follow my blog will do the same.
Have a nice Tuesday!
Until next time......
