Because when your local nursery has a buy one get one free geranium sale…

You bogo the hell out of that and fill your car.

And your kitchen counter.

And drop geraniums everywhere there isn’t one.

Not anymore.

My favorite kind of sale!
When the local nursery has a half price and buy one get one free sale in July?
You fill the back of your car.
Find room for some in an already full bed.
And replant the pots that your resident woodchucks munched to stalks.
Hopefully with flowers they don’t like.
And when the nursery extends the sale to the end of the month?
You go back again.
And cram even more flowers in a bed that’s already full just because you can.
While a red squirrel watches.
When you’re done?
You sit back on the barn porch and enjoy an adult beverage before dinner.
And watch the old doe walk up to have a snack.
Life is good.
I have a question.
So if someone could tell me what this is?
That would be great.
Because I was out shopping with a girlfriend a month ago and found something on the ladies clearance rack I can’t explain.
Let’s ignore the fact it’s butt ugly.
And there’s a random patch of black lace on a sweatshirt.
Let’s also ignore the clashing colors of the plastic gewgaws on the breast.
What. The. Utter. F*ck?
Is there a group of low limbed mutant women roaming my state?
Or maybe they have 4 arms….. and can’t decide if they want to go sleeveless.
Either way, I can’t begin to fathom how anyone else would be able to wear this monstrosity.
Lead, follow or….. well, you know the drill.
I think we’ve had this conversation before, but if you’re a business…. hawking vitamins, web design, crptyocurrency, pet meds and/or ways to increase my readership…. I will drop your follow-ship like a hot rock.
I don’t need an inflated follower count and am perfectly happy with old fashioned bloggers who rather read and interact than sell me something.
So, yay me.
I’ve been zapping people left and right lately, and I’m sorry…..
But sex young girls love you can find here?
You didn’t make the cut.
No, not really.
InTheNameOfSeitan gave me pause…..
Until I learned Seitan just means wheat gluten.
Phew!
That could have gone bad quickly.
Because I can never pass up a good sale.
There’s only one thing better than half priced Valentine’s Day candy…..
Okay, maybe not every kind of candy.
Uh… no!
But…
Half priced winter booze is pretty sweet as well.
I see gingerbread spiced mules in my future…..
Can they spare it?
Have you ever shopped Origins?
It’s a high end supposedly all natural line of skin care, scent etc.
I stopped in the other day with a girlfriend and while she was buying, I was browsing.
Naturally I was stalked by a saleswoman.
If you know me, you’ll know I hate this… and if you trail me around like a blue tick hound?
I won’t buy anything just out of spite.
I’m in your store. With my wallet. There’s a good chance I’ll buy something if I like it… so leave me the hell alone.
She wouldn’t… so I didn’t.
Seeing her commission walk out the door was apparently too much for this woman, because as I was leaving she handed me a sample pack of products….
With a long detailed description of how wonderful they were and how much I would love them.
It was a little mushroom heavy for my taste… but hey, free is free.
Free?
Maybe.
But when I got home and opened the samples?
The quantity, or lack there of…. surprised even me.
Sorry Origins.
I’d like to tell you I loved them…
But you didn’t give me nearly enough to find out.
River's world.....
