  • Are you familiar with the term "going bananas" or "they went bananas?"
    Is there an equivalent fruit for the opposite of going bananas?
    Perhaps you are going plums or they went kumquats?  

  • Today is officially the last day of school for Kyle and Hayden.
    Cue that song by Alice Cooper.

  • Memorial Day is right around the corner.
    Do you have any plans?
    We are doing some stuff but the highlight will be going to my niece's wedding. 

  • Here is today's basset creation. My request was a basset hound dressed in a space suit celebrating with confetti and fireworks and lasers and sharks, digital art:

  • Dad joke alert: Where do pirates get their hooks? Secondhand stores.
  • We are halfway through the week and I hope you are doing fantastic.
    Stay cool and I might talk to you tomorrow.


    I will persevere.
    I will keep moving forward.
    I will be the stream.

      Is that banana thingy supposed to be erotic, or is my medication acting up again? Love the dad joke.

        Just two consenting bananas trying to make their way through this world, Deedles. But, yep, they are about to do some banana splits. Too much?

      If all the fireworks in the basset creation were rotten tomatoes being hurled, that would be the opposite of going bananas. Perhaps even the triplicate, if you get my meaning.

      It's not a fruit and it's punny but "Clam down?" My district doesn't get out until June 26th. Teachers and students are (understatement) disgruntled. No plans for Memorial Day--just a coffee date with a friend on Monday. A trip to the cemetery with my mom sometime during the weekend.

        I don't think I have heard clam down in a long time but that does work, Margaret.

      Now I can't decide if I like "going plums" or "going kumquats" better. You always find weird gifs. I wouldn't say that to many people but I have a feeling it will be a compliment to you, not an insult :)
      lolol at the Dad joke!

      I thought it was a banana massage parlor. Not a fruit, but people around here go "nuts".

        That is an excellent interpretation, River.

      It's the berries?
