Happy New Year, Katie!
Maybe 2010 will have less sewing machine problems, more time to enjoy some good books, and think of better Chuck Norris one-liners. I mean, come awn, what was that? I’ve heard it a million times! Just kidding.
It was actually pretty clever.
HNY, Katie. I loved this post so much. V. funny, especially the Chuck Norris one-liner
Tracey, what’s funny is that I went online and searched for it the next day, thinking I’d heard it on TV as I drifted to sleep (my husband always watches Conan O’Brien). But nope! I actually get a lot of weird ideas when I sleep. Every 500th one is the spark of something. Happily, I had one of those the other night, too!
Thanks, Maggie! Happy new year!
You created a Chuck Norris saying! You’re the funniest person in the world!!!!
And did you specify the anti-spam word on your site? Cause mine is “dogshow”
Yep, those are all custom! Changing them out every month is just about my favorite thing.
My mom almost got rear ended to. She called the lady behind us a “jerk” and said to learn how to drive right. She hates people on the road who don’t know to drive. It’s kinda funny to be in the car with her when there is ice on the road or it’s foggy.
