this is a momentous day for 2 reasons: 1) i survived; and 2) the daily puppy re-ran pouncey as their puppy of the day!
sitting in 9th grade biology class, we were talking about diabetes and the teacher mentioned sufferers may have a shortened lifespan. at this moment i was struck with the feeling i, myself, diabetes-free, would die at 38. i have not obsessed over this, but i have remembered it vaguely from time to time for the past 23 years. i am glad to say my premonition was horseshit! i made it!
now go over to the daily puppy and give pouncey 11 biscuits...again.
Bon jour, Wednesday! Bon jour WTF!
I spent last week at the beach in Georgia for a fun family vacation. Riding in the car to the grocery store, my 7 year old niece was playing with my phone and came upon the WTF Flickr stream of photos, and we laughed for 10 minutes as she read the titles for every one. We didn't call them WTF, we called them 'weird things.' When we got to the grocery store, she suggested we look for weird things to take pictures of. My heart leapt into the atmosphere!
These are the two weird things she found completely by herself.
Catnip toy. Glittery mice. Totally weird thing.
Hot and fluffy. Weird! Yes!
Moving along to some vintage records. Mr. Al sings colors and shapes.
10 Commandments for Children. Why are there 11 children? What are they doing?
Hawaiian war looks kind of relaxing.
Hungarian rhapsody.
Bunny planter.
Wants a hug.
Indeed.
Barbies gone wild.
Learn to cook cats, kids, and pee.

Another natural tongue out tuesday figurine - fox on a blue log with mushrooms.
Last but not least, hey there crappily painted bow-tie teddy bear wearing an October sash. (waves).
As with all wtf wednesdays, there are no answers, only questions leading to more questions.

This week was heavy on the vintage LP's. Danny Davis was heavy on the ruffles.

when last we left, i'd shown 5 of my favorite vintage unc t-shirts.
here are 5 more favorites - all basketball-related.
soft, thin, and true. carolina basketball is a perennial power.
looks pretty basic here - carolina basketball school - vintage t-shirt from the summer camp:
but it's a champion blue bar tag, dating it to the mid 70s. sweet!
here's another of the softest silkiest t-shirts i own. love the repeated graphics and the hair on the player. michael jordan era - ncaa champions 1982.
this must be one of the most obscure carolina basketball t-shirts ever made. gastonia, NC - city of the all-americans - russell athletic from the late 70's. honoring james worthy (UNC) and sleepy floyd (georgetown) - who both grew up in gastonia.
last but not least, coach k drinks winecoolers. this is not as old as the others, probably only 15 years or so, but it makes me laugh every time.
you know he does!
although the tarheels did not advance past the sweet sixteen this year, it was a great season, and we can all still find pleasure in the remaining games by rooting against duke.
