SIX WORDS FOR EMBARRASSING MOMENTS--THE SLITHERING SLIP

Elastic lost it's oomph, slip slithered.

I just read your comment on my blog. Your tree isn't up yet because you made 20 tins of Russian Tea Cakes, Peanut Butter Fudge, Pizza, and hopefully some of your wonderful carmels. You are really ambitious--to say the least.

P.S. I was so excited, I drove downtown to go to a couple of places, but mostly to go see Body World III. When I walked it at about 7:40, they told me i was too late and couldn't go in. They stop selling tickets at 7:00 P.M.

I couldn't believe they would close so early. Now i know why they roll up the sidewalks at night in downtown Salt Lake. I tried begging them to let me in to just see a little bit because there were people still inside the exhibit, but the refused.

Then I spied the words Madeline's Cafe, so I decided to assuage my disappointment with sugar. I decided to get a Key lime bar and one vanilla shortbread cookie when who did I see getting them for me but your HER EXCELLENCY OF MOUSEHOLE!

It was fun to see and chat with her for a few minutes. I don't even know her really name. When I saw her face behind the counter, I exclaimed, "Hey, I know you--You're HER EXCELLENCY OF MOUSEHOLE! How did you ever get that name?" She had no explanation. So, Lynne, how did she get that magnificent appellation?

There is a site that will assign you a new name. I typed in the information--I think it's just whether you are a male or female--for her and Her Excellency of Mousehole came up. That's how Lord Bumhamptom and Nurse Giggleswitch got their names too. I can't for the life of me find that post, it's way down somewhere and I can't remember what name it assigned me, either. It was fun to do. If I ever find it I'll let you know.
