Well...

I guess I'm kinda ready for the weekend... Do I have enough Kool-Aid?

That looks to be a good start to me. Do you have your other accessories like rubber gloves? Or do you keep them on hand for emergencies normally?

I thought I could get by with just a few packages--silly dyeing newbie that I was...

Remember to save the empty packets to roll around naked in. It's a great skin softener. Really..try it, work up a sweat...that should really make the Kool-Aid powder fully coat you from head to toe.

Just don't be drinking that all in one evening or you'll be up all night running to the bathroom.

I knew I could count on my buddies Ann and Dave....

And Ann, that rollin' around thing is kinda nasty, dotcha think? hehehehe

And did you two call each other up and say, let's leave comments NOW?

9:16 PM  
Blogger Ann said...

Yeah, I gave Dave a call and said how bout we torture the newbie tonight and get him to roll around naked in the Kool-Aid and dye himself from head to toe..and then have him drink Kool-Aid so his tongue matches.

It's an evil plot I tell ya!

Oh..nice buttons..

Ann,
I'm beginning to think you're just not right in the head...... LOL!

9:23 PM  
Blogger Ann said...

Not right from head to toe, are you new?

Word verification...ihwjw--that has to be some sort of secret code from aliens...Must make a tin foil hat.

I'm wondering if Norma and Ann are one in the same? They have the same hair color. Same last names. And, like Michael and Latoya Jackson, you never see the two in public at the same time. Hmmmm, makes you wonder...

9:42 PM  
Blogger Ann said...

I am humbled by your comment to compare me to Norma. I get the impression from her blog that she is one great Kick Ass Woman..hey, sorta like me.

Curtsying..heaven knows I am not taking a bow in here...

I made myself laugh at that one.

Blogger Paul said...

Wow....

I'm really glad I found you two - you have no idea how much I am entertained by you both...

Y'all are just children of the cornfields. You got the corn color for hair. You're EVIL! EVIL!!!!!!!!!!

Blogger Ann said...

I stay up nights thinking of funny things to entertain you Paul. No, actually it comes from years of practice chatting in chat rooms and torturing newbies.

I am getting quite a chuckle out of this long distant chatting through blogging tonight.

Is Dave having a nervous breakdown?

Anonymous Dave Daniels said...

No, I'm working on those damned red white and blue socks. I WANT THEM DONE!!!!

Why? Nervous? ME?

Blogger Ann said...

He He He...do you think we just need to push a little and he will go over the edge? What's the count in the Etsy shop of yarn sold?

15 ITEMS SOLD? Yet he still has time to blog and comment..what a guy!

9:57 PM  
Blogger Ann said...

He is posting to the blog and knitting at the same time..wow, I am so impressed. Turn on the web cam, flash your needles!

9:57 PM  
Blogger Paul said...

Going over the edge? Only his hairdresser knows for sure...

9:58 PM  
Anonymous Dave Daniels said...

Honeydoll, I'd need hair for a hairdresser. I AM my own hairdresser. Maybe we ought to take this to SIM or something? Let the rgular bloggers get in on the comments about your Kool Aid?

10:01 PM  
Blogger Ann said...

Hmmm...I needed to ponder that one. Does he go to the hairdresser of the stars that I read so much about?

You know..I wouldn't be surprised if he has the Cabin Cove logo dyed into his hair the next time...and the address of the Etsy shop. Don't you think that would be a great marketing tool?

SIM? Speak English...

10:03 PM  
Blogger Paul said...

They are more than welcome to comment on my Kool-Aid. i think it might be nice if someone else besides the three of us make a comment. This has become our own little private forum.... Not that i'm complaining. I'm still chukling over the children of the corn comment...

AIM. I hate having to type in that password eveytime. It's annoying, like a...well...I don't want to say anything offensive.

Blogger Paul said...

i think he should get it tattooed on his butt for those times he wears chaps...

10:06 PM  
Blogger Ann said...

I just fell off of my chair laughing, the chaps tattoo--omg..I may never recover from that visual!

Hmmm...AIM is AOL? I think I have that on this computer..I also have MSN and Yahoo. Paul..what do you have?

You may be able to start charging people to read this conversation Paul.

Hey, kids?
Why not go on over to bug...er...post to Rock Chick's? She has a post on Keith Richards. You could do some damage over there.

I have yahoo for Instant messaging.

This is much better than any Neil Simon comedy.... I should charge admission...

10:12 PM  
Blogger Ann said...

He's trying to distract us...type pad seems to be misbehaving tonight. My blog is throwing page not found errors..and so is the purljam URL...

10:13 PM  
Blogger Paul said...

I'm sorry, but I just had to get rid of the word verification for a moment - it was really pissing me off.

10:14 PM  
Blogger Ann said...

If I tell you my log in for Yahoo..I might have to kill you..because believe me..you will laugh..not quite as much as the chaps comment..but it's funny.

He disconnected the password requirement..awwww...just for you Dave.

Seee? You guys are disrupting the nature sequence of the INTERNET!

LOOK AT WHAT YOU ARE DOING!!!!!

10:15 PM  
Blogger Paul said...

Are you sayin' we're not natural??

10:17 PM  
Blogger Ann said...

It's like a train wreck, he wants to stop commenting...but he doesn't want to miss anything either.

Are you kidding..we may have created a new tool for the Internet---blog chatting!

10:19 PM  
Blogger Paul said...

Blog chatting... i like it. Heaven forbid we should all get the same IM and actually chat together......

10:22 PM  
Blogger Ann said...

Would we be ALLOWED to do that? OMG...are you sure there aren't some sort of rules about that in Cyberknittingblogland? We may need to consult the president of CKB on that one.

10:24 PM  
Blogger Paul said...

Like there are rules about leaving comments the way that we do????? I'm surprised they haven't taken away my blog...

10:26 PM  
Blogger Ann said...

When people log into your blog and see that bowl full of Kool-Aid and all the comments you know they are going to click in and read this..and say oh darn, I wanted to blog chat too!

10:27 PM  
Blogger Paul said...

Either that, or they'll say, "What the hell is wrong with these people? Don't they have a life?"

10:29 PM  
Blogger Paul said...

And where the hell did Dave go??

DAVE! DAAVVVEEEEE!!!!!!!

10:30 PM  
Blogger Ann said...

I can answer that..nooooooooooo....but we still have fun. Look, he is hiding from us..he thinks that will make us stop.

You have the power to delete all of the comments...just delete ours, leave Dave's here so people think he came in here to talk to himself.

10:31 PM  
Anonymous Dave Daniels said...

Youse people, you're outta control!
Admit it, you're doing this just t o get your comment count higher. lol

10:32 PM  
Blogger Paul said...

hehehehe

That's a great idea.....

10:33 PM  
Blogger Ann said...

See, I told you that he would not be able to stop. He was wondering just what direction the conversation would turn. We don't have any problems talking about him if he is here or if he isn't here.

10:34 PM  
Blogger Paul said...

I didn't start this...

10:35 PM  
Blogger Ann said...

Hmmm..I had to scroll up, I do believe I posted the first comment. When I couldn't get in to post to my blog I came back..discovered if you click on refresh you see the comment count go up and waaaa laaaaaaa...blog chatting.

Ann, 6A took a dump. I've got blogs on two of their sites and can't get to either. Bastards.

Y'all, our Dave does not have hair. So no hairdresser. Although, someone must look after Miss Lulu Kitty...

Paul, love you, love the comments, love that bowl.

Oh, and I found some Wilton color thingies today in my stash of cake dec stuffies. I may join the cult yet. *L*

Night Dave--and I believe we are all in the same time zone..

Whispers to Paul, you know he will be up at the crack of dawn to see what he missed!

Hi, Ann!

I miss our blogs.

I don't really think that Dave sleeps either. How else could he get so much done. Does he have an "S" on his chest that I haven't seen yet?

10:43 PM

That could be it...

Or Miss Lulu can knit. o.0

10:47 PM  
Blogger Ann said...

I had not thought of that before now. I am going to look a little closer at those photos of Lulu Kitty that he posts on his blog...is it possible she could hold a dpn in each of her paws?

This concludes our blog chatting program for tonight..thanks to all who stopped in and participated.

Good night John Boy! Good Night Mary Ellen! You know who you are!

I am off to the knitting nook for my late night knitting with Letterman.

Way back somewhere at the top of where the actual post lives I actually had thought of something to say. Not witty, but you know, something. A comment. Coz I'm a commenter and heck, that's what I do.

By the time I made it all the way down to the end though, not only was I finished my cup of coffee, the thought was gone. Alas. Looking forward to seeing the results of your Kool Aid fest. Are you still planning to use yarn, or just go right for Ann's suggestion of rolling around in the open packets to dye yourself?

Blogger Ann said...

Paul,

I was came across a link today at work that you might want to consider in relationship to this very long entry about...not much. LOL

Author! Author! http://www.blurb.com/

Just sayin' there's potential if you can generate 60 comments from a photo of Kool-Aid.

:o)

Blogger Paul said...

Very cool site, Ann. Oh, and it's not like I actually said anything of note to generate 60 comments - scroll back and read them, Sis!!!

Rachel, thanks for stopping by and taking part in the insanity. i have wonderful, albeit, strange, friends. And I love them dearly! (and no, I won't be dyeing myself, thank you very much... LOL!)

Tsk, look what happens when some bloggers are over-caffeinated and under-busy - Blogger Standup (Sitdown?) Comedy!

As for the Kool-Aid - might keep you going for one day, if you're even half as much of a speed demon as Dave. It is the unsweetened, right?

10:21 AM  
Anonymous KnittyOtter said...

It's like the naughty knitters chat room in here. *L*

o.0

I think you have enough. I only have about half that much. I still need to think about what Dave told me as I don't have a swift or niddy noddy (sp?).

What other tools do you have for the job? I'm kinda afraid all that wet dyed yarn will get away from me and take over my house and the cat will run away from home because I'm stuck under a pile and can't reach the cat food to feed her. :O

Anything could happen. You just never know.

10:52 AM  
Blogger Paul said...

Actually, you can't see all the Kool-aid - there are 8 packs each of 9 different flavors. I was getting a little obsessive, I guess.....

Anonymous witchypoo said...

I wonder how kool-aid tastes with vodka?

It's great - as long as you leave out the Kool-aid...

68 comments!! wow - I thought that is fantastic! I start reading them -- it's some blog-chat with Ann and Dave and Paul.... and then cookie chimes in, and cat, and auntynin and a few others... sheesh!!

What was I going to say?! Dang it, you guys made me lose my train of thought! Maybe it'll come back. Hmm--
