We’ve been having fun playing with the magnetic haiku set the Haiku Buckaroo won over at My Mommy’s Place. I thought you might enjoy an occasional selection from the fridge.
This one’s appropriate for an evening benediction.
Mouth do give my house of happy dream whisper
‘Night, everyone.

Yea! I won a prize, people. Ok, it was random, but it’s still a really great prize (a matted photo of Allison’s). And I got an honorable mention. And my honey is the haiku buckaroo! Go congratulate him and go check out the other winners. I thought everyone did a great job on this contest.

So…there’s an “erotic haiku” category in the Haiku Buckaroo contest. If this makes you close your eyes, cover your ears, and start screaming “lalalalagoawaybadman,” click away now.
Lips part, breath quickens
tongue searches for another
my love, kiss me now.
Legs jostle and rub
hurrying to the climax
savoring each step.

Driveway slippery
snow forecast for tonight
d@*# shovel beckons
Bitter cold assaults
Nose hairs crystallize and stick
Lungs fill and empty

Got some much-coveted kidless time to go play in Chicago with my sister yesterday (Thank you, Hubs). We rode the ferris wheel at Navy Pier, had dinner at Joe’s BeBop cafe, and took an evening skyline tour of the harbor. I have wanted to ride that ferris wheel since we moved here. Check. That one’s [...]

I’ve been thinking about Clemntine for some reason today; I miss readin’ your blog, girlfriend. Um, don’t ask me why–but this little tune has been rattlin’ around in my brain:
Oh where, oh where has that little blog gone?
Oh where, oh where can it be?
With it’s bodily jokes and its corny songs
Oh please won’t you come [...]
