Witty & Wise Ties, Trivia & Lies
Skitter wants you to know that these three boxes of ho-ho-ho Bow Ties o’ the Day hold greater numbers than it may appear. Each box is packed at least four bow ties deep. The love-seat provides just enough room for them and Skitter to sit and watch television. They are all sometimes champion couch potatoes. I’ll just stand here in front of the love-seat for a while, gazing down adoringly into the many eyes of my Skitter and my festive bow ties.
I live such a weird, blessed life.
Holiday Ties o’ the Day reveal they are ready and willing to serve for the duration of this Christmas/ Hanukkah/Kwanzaa season. Skitter tells me she’s counted more than 215 neckties here, but she reminded me I bought a few more specimens during some after-Christmas sales last year— which are currently unaccounted for. They’re hiding somewhere in the Tie Room, and I will certainly find them. We probably need to start another holiday necktie storage bin ASAP, as well. I’m off to air out the ho-ho-ho bow ties now.
I’m still receiving votes about whether y’all want me to wear/display ALL of my holiday neckwear during the season, or would you rather I select just one or two pieces per day to wear. Vote on. You Facebook readers aren’t voting a lot in the comments, but I have received quite a few IM’s from you. Readers on the website are chiming in, as usual. So far— if the vote holds its current course— I’ll be wearing each and every piece o’ Christmas neckwear in my collection once again this year. It makes my neck and shoulders hurt, just thinking about the tie weight I’ll be carrying.
