New Sock Monkey: Sarina

Filed under: Obsessions - February 27, 2007 @ 5:37 pm

Oooh just look at this prissy party goin’ on. Sarina holding court with all the other tea birds…

(Score your own sock baby goodness at Ahimsa Creations. That is, if I don’t buy them all first!)

Mr. Ugly Is Missing!

Filed under: Obsessions - February 25, 2007 @ 10:59 am

Here are my 230+ Pez dispensers.

Most are common, but some are rare, actual vintage pieces, or designs only available in Europe.

mrugly.jpgMy second favorite one is Dumbo. He’s vintage. My first favorite is Mr. Ugly, another vintage, but guess what? He’s MISSING.

My daughter decided he was so ugly he didn’t deserve to see the light of day, so she went and hid him somewhere, and can’t remember where. I told her my life wouldn’t be complete until I found him. She said warily, “What if you never find him?”

Grrr. As tempting as it is to hide ugly things, she shouldn’t have done it! So if you’re over and see him stashed somewhere, please notify me immediately! I’m offering a handsome reward for his safe return.

New Sock Monkey: Ellen

Filed under: Obsessions - February 20, 2007 @ 4:59 pm

Ahh, little googly-eyed Ellen. She has this cute little flecked body you have to see in real life to fully appreciate. Anyway, I was going about my business one morning getting dressed, when I opened my closet and discovered something new and interesting about Ellen…

She has a corduroy fetish. (You can’t tell in this picture, but she was jumping up and down.)

The Beautiful Kind - In Japan

Filed under: Obsessions - February 17, 2007 @ 7:02 am

It just is that I have a huge crush on this woman from New Zealand who lives in Japan. Upon discovering my site, she sent me pics of her most delicious socks. A kindred spirit! Just look at this sampling of sock dreams…

Day of the Dead Double Feature

Filed under: Obsessions - February 15, 2007 @ 4:30 pm

Here are two Day of the Dead dioramas my friend M brought back from Mexico for me. I prefer to pair them so that it seems like the three-man band is serenading the handsome couple from heaven.

New Sock Monkey: Winston

Filed under: Obsessions - February 13, 2007 @ 11:45 am

Zowie, this snow is awesome! At least, Winston thinks so. I keep catching him lurking around the fridge - he loves the cold, so he likes tap dancing in the ice tray.

But today he can make snow angels!

Day of the Dead: Proposal by Moonlight

Filed under: Obsessions - February 3, 2007 @ 3:06 am

dayofdead2.jpgI always like a scene where the man is on his knees…

Here is why I love Day of the Dead stuff so much:

- they are caricatures of ourselves.

- they’re morbid.

- they’re colorful and sparkly.

This one has this cowboy dude proposing to this fabulously ghastly woman with big ass hair. I hope she says yes.

Sock Monkey Update: Love Triangle!

Filed under: Obsessions - January 29, 2007 @ 5:06 pm

OH MY GOD that Lolita. A woman after my own heart. She has formed a love triangle with Gomer and Mayor Scottie! That MINX! I asked her who she would end up settling with and she replied, all saucy-like:

“Hello! It’s 2007, I don’t HAVE to choose. Besides, I dig the contrast.”

Fair enough…

New Sock Monkey: Lolita

Filed under: Obsessions - January 25, 2007 @ 5:06 am

Here is the latest sock monkey to join the gang: Lolita. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve walked in on her trolling the internet for dates. She didn’t learn that from ME, did she?

New Sock Monkey: Scottie

Filed under: Obsessions - January 22, 2007 @ 4:55 pm

OH MY GOD an ALBINO sock monkey!!! Combining two of my favorite things like this makes me giddy beyond measure, like that pez dispenser with the biker moustache…god I need a cocktail to calm my nerves. Perhaps a White Russian?

My daughter has designated Scottie Mayor of Sockville. Stay tuned to see who he hooks up with, jesus it’s a sock monkey soap opera around here…

Punky Has Met His Match

Filed under: Obsessions - January 13, 2007 @ 2:42 pm

Punky is the baddest monkey of the bunch. He’s constantly teasing the girls and causing trouble.

But along came Megan and suddenly, he’s tongue-tied and smitten. And ooh she knows it and is alll over him.

Be afraid, Punky. Be very afraid…

But look! He has a serious aversion to stripes.

Ecstatic Pez Shivers

Filed under: Obsessions - December 6, 2006 @ 8:58 am

I have over 200 Pez dispensers, including Dumbo, Bert & Ernie, a cop, a fuzzy bear, Mr. Ugly, Magilla Gorilla, Chewbacca and Popeye.

But now.

I have a Pez dispenser with a Biker Moustache. I’m experiencing ecstatic shivers here.

God, doesn’t this make you want to be a Pez character? Biker dude came with cherry flavor candy. Naturally, I’d come with pussy flavor. I know, I know, I’m so predictable…At least I’m not going to use the pez dispenser as a sex toy. I mean, I wouldn’t do that, would I? …
