Gold! Sweet gold!
Feb. 21st, 2006 11:45 amI stumbled over to the bathroom mirror this morning, mere seconds after I had awakened. There I am, bleary, crusty-eyed, looking twenty years older as we tend to do first thing in the morning. My hair is a greasy mop of bedhead, and my muttonchops are flattened and askew. And since it was a cold night, I'm wearing nothing but my red union suit*.
Overnight, I have transformed into an 1890's prospector, ready to sift for "GOLD! SWEET, SWEET GOLD! EE-HEE-HEE-HEE! NOW AH THINK AH'LL EAT MAH SHOE!"
*For those who don't know, a union suit is that long underwear bodysuit, the kind with the butt-flap. Which shouldn't surprise any of you to know that I have it. I feel the need to explain this because when I told someone about it before, she got a sudden visual of me lounging around my house in a full Civil War Union Soldier uniform. "Ah do declare, this heah 'Spongebob Squared-Pants' is a delight."
