This is something that I don’t say very often but I actually have to go to bed. WHAAAT??? Yeah I do. Crazy-ness. So this post is going to be a bit of randomness FUN GREAT TIMES with some FAB LINKS and a little special dose of happiness and rainbows sent from my computer to yours. yay!
First things first – remember the lamp that sprouted magical legs? It left a BRUISE ON MY FACE!!! Not cool.
And SWINE FLU – I think the following blog posts deserve a mention because they made me LOL – but they’re not for you mom because they have swear words in them – ones you wouldn’t like. oxox (that’s my mom’s and my secret “love you SO MUCH” code.)
Iced Tea, A Busy Mind and Not Being A Hypochondriac by Nicole A.
Ok and now I have to tell you a secret. BECAUSE SECRETS ARE FUN!!! One time I told this dude that although I love shopping – because I seriously do – I like to think “it’s not the meat and potatoes” of my life. Yeah I said that. I said shopping isn’t the meat and potatoes of my life. And then I wrote a blog about how I COULDN’T BELIEVE I SAID THAT. (and I just re-read that blog and omgosh omgosh omgosh) WHY OH WHY DID I BLOG ABOUT IT? Now there’s PROOF. Who says things like that? No seriously [shake head in disbelief.] And I’m mentioning this because I recently learned that my dad is now teaching gardening classes to his peeps in my old neighborhood and he grows potatoes and yeah – you see where I’m going with this? No? that’s ok. 
ANYWHO – my milkshake brings all the boys to the yard. Oh yes. AND my dad is on a quest to grow a 500 lb pumpkin. A FIVE HUNDRED POUND PUMPKIN!!! Say whaaaat?? That’s about 227 kg. Which is a LOT. And I’m going to tell you a bit about it in doses. But just one dose at a time.
Dose One of Daisy’s Dad’s 500lb Pumpkin Quest
My dad planted ONE HUNDRED pumpkin seeds. Some of them were like 5-6 yrs old (don’t ask) others were from a pumpkin he grew two years ago that was GINORMOUS (180 lbs) and the rest? He says they’re “Dill’s Atlantis Giant.” Way to go Dill – your seeds sound dirty – you sick-o.
OK so my dad planted the seeds on the 23rd of April and by the 24th – ONE DAY LATER – he wrote this (btw he’s journaling this just for ME and my amusement. 
)
I hate waiting. I’ve peeled back the plastic wrap twice today, hoping to see ANYthing. I saw nothing.
HAHAHA! It’d only been ONE DAY! That’s freaking hilarious. Seriously it is. AAAANNNNDDD the NEXT DAY on the 25th of April he wrote this:
I hate waiting. I’ve peeled back the plastic wrap FOUR times today, hoping to see ANYthing.
Right-ee-o – so my dad’s getting a bit obsessive and it’s only day 3. Then he wrote this:
I even started lightly digging in the dirt looking for any signs of life. I saw nothing.
Oh no he didn’t. Did he? I don’t know. But that’s what he wrote. HAHAHAHAHA! AAAANNNNNDDDD with that we’ll stop there. I don’t need you thinking my dad’s crazy quite yet. PLUS that’s a pretty big dose for today. It’s been three days and he’s already obsessed. HAHA just teasing Dad. kind of. 
OHMYGOSH – What am I listening to this evening? Some tight flow! But I put it after the break because most of you probably don’t share my refined taste in music. hee hee. Oh and I don’t usually like mash-ups but the one at the bottom is SO SWEET. Good night!! xoxo~Daisy

Uh It’s Dill’s Great ATLANTIC Giant not atlantis :). Meaning it was developed on the Atlantic seaboard. where they have a giant pumpkin contest every year.
Love OCD Dad
Oh yeah! I got some shout-out love! I’m totally rocking out to these now as I write cover letters… obviously I’m having a more productive dance sesh than writing sesh, but whatever.
That is one big pumpkin. I hope there’s plenty of space for it. I’d hate for the pumpkin to get to 400lbs and be tearing down fences. Well, I’m sure all of these things have been planned in advance.
I use “bread and butter” instead of “meat and potatoes”
Maybe that says I’m a prisoner and you’re a character in a musical.
I just saw this blog and the props :) Thanks for that!
PS… I had a dream I met you last night. We were taking some class together
