It’s Random Thursday so I’m shelling out (HEY-o!) my new favorite Time Suck, some questionable Latin, and some eggcellent yolks.
Yeah, I don’t know, either, but ab absurdum seems to cover it . . .

House Time Suck
I don’t have HBO and for several reasons—only one of which involves Sean Bean’s inevitable death—I think I’m going to give Game of Thrones a miss, though it’s nearly impossible to avoid memes and mentions if you spend more than five minutes online.
But I’ll admit the House Sigils are pretty cool. And that I spent several hours quite some time on Join the Realm making up my own:
And if you really want to lose an hour or two, google “Funny Latin Phrases.”
Ego te provoco.
oooooooooooooOOOOOooooooooooooo
Not Eggsactly
Jada Swissiedog is suffering from tummy troubles, and has been put on a rice-and-boiled-egg-based diet.
The other day, Watson was boiling a batch of eggs while she made dinner for the rest of us.
Jane came in. “Ooo, can I have an egg?”
“No,” Watson said. “The humans are having chicken.”
“Oh.” Jane thought a minute. “Then can I have one of the younger chickens?”
oooooooooooooOOOOOooooooooooooo
Concordia Discors

If the Ovum Fits . . .
“Mom?”
“Yeah?”
“If Easter Bunnies ever create their own government, will they have a Lettuce-lative Branch?”
“You mean to balance the Egg-secutive?”
“Mooom! You’re such a nerd.”
oooooooooooooOOOOOooooooooooooo

In vino veritas. Carpe diem. Res ipsa loquitor.
Ta dah!
Ubi Amici, ibi opes!
“Hobnobs for all” ????
Wouldn’t that be “hobnobs et al” – just to make a terrible joke
Et all Hobnobs?
That goes without saying, though if anyone can do that Latin, I’d love to see it!
Your kids are a hoot and a half. Love ’em!
They have enough personality for five kids, that’s for sure!
Wonderful. Thanks for reminding me Latin was 30 years ago. I feel soooo much better.
I do have a cool sigil, though.
Oh, and I read Game of Thrones when there were only three books. Got halfway through the 3rd, then I sold them.
Yeah, almost thirty for me, too. My declencher is out of practice, but my googlefu makes up for it.
“The other day, Watson was boiling a batch of eggs while she made dinner for the rest of us.”
I need a Watson.
Everyone needs a Watson. Even Watson needs a Watson!
Amen.
