Fish ... Bicycle

I was on an irreverent roll this weekend, and this is the last one I cranked out last night:

When I shop for sentiments, I buy one if (1) it makes me laugh out loud, (2) I can visualize what stamps I'd use with it, or (3) I wish I'd said that.

This is one of the sentiments for which I knew I had stamps in my stash I could use. The bicycle is from a retired SU set and the fish is from A Muse. The sentiment is from my last Viva Las Vegas Stamps extravaganza.

FYI - shopping at VLVS is not for the faint of heart or for those in a hurry. The first thing I do is look at the new stuff since I have so many of their older stamps. Then I peruse. Their stamps are in alphabetical order, and I think it took me 4 or 5 hours to go from A to Z in the sentiments category. Seriously. But I am very happy with my new stamps, and they are sparking my mojo, so it was worth it.

In other news, I get to retrieve my vehicle from the mechanic later today. Good thing I love that car, since I think I've paid for it twice. But I am admittedly emotionally invested in it after 20 years, and you can't beat 30 mpg in stop-and-go (mostly stopped) traffic. And it only takes 8 gallons of gas. Cheap gas. I love that car.

Happy Monday, everyone!

  1. OMG - this reminds me totally of my student days! That was in the 70s, and that slogan was THE feminist thing. We had t-shirts saying that!
