CAMEL DAY

It's the Ides of November or more importantly, NaBloPoMo hump day. In fact, given that it's Wednesday, it's double hump day.

Hump. I can't read the word hump without beginning to hum Alice the Camel (a curse of my summers spent as a camp counselor -- if you call, I'll sing it to you):

Alice the camel has five humps.
Alice the camel has five humps.
Alice the camel has five humps.
So go, Alice, go boom boom boom!

Hump Day: if we were riding a rollercoaster you'd recognize that brief sweet spot between the long ca-chunk ca-chunk ca-chunk up that first monster hill and the thrilling drop. From here, it's all gravy. Or at least it will be a week from now when we can wallow in the delight of a tryptophan high. Mmmmm, turkey.

Speaking of roller coasters, have you seen the fabulous Marble Roller Coaster on Mighty Goods? I think that would be a mighty fine (no pun intended) addition to my small collection of desk "objet" (a magenta perpetual motion sunshine buddy, a set of Cubees and ah, I'm not quite sure how to describe it, a small "poo" toy from Kidrobot).

I'm not sure, but I think that I've somehow come around to talking about poo in every November post. Poo, poo, poo, poo! It's all about poo. I'm taking an oath to not talk about fecal matters for the rest of November.
