Yesterday we went bike riding around Angel Island, prompting me to declare that today my unmentionables are sore. Which made me wonder...if you say "unmentionables," aren't you technically mentioning them? Ah, yet another English-language loophole. Love it...use it...exploit it!

Yesterday, Ryan's 8-year-old nephew came up with the name Sherlock Temple. That sparked a whole thought process in my head:

Name: Sherlock Temple
Description: A 4'2" little girl with curly brown hair, wearing a sleuth hat, equipped with a magnifying glass, clad in Burberry.
Loves: Solving mysteries, spontaneously breaking into song, showing off her dimples, smoking pipes, tap dancing.
Quote: "On the good ship Lollipop, my dear Watson!"

This could be the next big hit!

What is the deal with changing purses? Why is this such an unpleasant, yet necessary, task? Have you seen how much women carry in their purses?! I can't stand switching things from one bag to another...I actually feel my blood start to boil. Someone should invent a bag that you never have to empty...you can just take it out and switch it from purse to purse. Voila...it would take three seconds. I'm adding this to my list of "things that should exist."

Lacey commented: It is actually a good thing that I did switch purses, if I hadn't I would of lost a $500 purse today unstead of an $65.00 purse! But yes because I do switch my bags often, I could not tell the police what was actually in my purse....grrr I am still pissed at it!

Mrs. Duhamel commented: You have way too much time on your hands and I have found the solution to your many thought problems!!! Babysitting! You come babysit my kids and entertain them and they will rought your brain of all intelligence(which is ok for you cause you have so much it won't hurt you). So yes I declare Kim the new Rose Nanny!!! Watch out Nanny 911 meet your Sherlock Temple match!!! 2 Kudos for you!

Dom commented: actually, a purse like that does exist! its like this clear, plastic bag and it has different colored handles or outerbags that you can attach. i've only seen them a couple of times and, from what i saw, they were ug-o.

your blog has sparked my curiosity. for your next blog, i request that you list the ENTIRE contents of your purse IN DETAIL, NO CHEATING.

example: 1 used kleenex, 2 mystery pills, a half-rotten orange, etc, etc

hmm... MY contents would be scary! i will tell you if you like, but don't say i didn't warn you! i won't even clean it first- that's what a sport i am.

Dom commented: ooh... shoulda said, "scawy, mommy!"
