Awesome Affordable Etsy Find of the Week: Back From Florida Edition


I'm back from Florida, miraculously alive and in one piece (I did lose approximately 3 quarts of blood to the Everglades mosquitoes, but hey, I'm sure they needed it more than I did). Crazy snake-hunting/alligator-stalking/Jon Voight-impersonating adventure stories and photo evidence are forthcoming as soon as I get my thoughts in order and my brother figures out how to burn me a photo CD (the kid has many other skills).

I promise to make it worth the wait.

As a preview, here is a picture of me petting a water moccasin that my dad caught in a swamp:

Not shown: me wetting myself.

I'll be back to a normal blogging schedule this week so stay tuned for haiku, chochas, and lots of other fun stuff!

You have amazingly clean fingernails for someone that has just been trekking around the Florida swamps. Mums around the world would be most pleased.

Welcome back Winona! Looking forward to some of your blood-letting-in-the-swamp stories. PS Nice job with the water moccasin. I had to scroll quickly to avoid freaking out from here. :)

Can't wait to hear more. Can't believe you touched a water moccasin and are still alive.

Welcome back! Oh, how I've missed your witty writings, pithy musings, and otherwise hilarity.

On many laptops, inserting a blank CD walks you through the process ... or you can "send" the folder of photos to your writer.

Oh, and OMG to the water moccasin picture. Too scary.

great- I have had major chocha withdrawal. And one to check out: Kristin Chenoweth's dress at the Tony's last night. There was nearly Diva Chocha on primetime TV with that little number.

A water moccasin! You are a brave, brave lady. I will stick with the foot apparel form of moccasin. Any shots of the Deb shirt in play?

You're treading on some major Britney Spears territory now. Next stop, dancing with a python across your shoulders.
