ww – hookey – 5.14.08

HEY Y’ALL!!!!
i’m on the beach, but we’re still playin. tam is blog-sitting – so do what she says!

the last question was from gchyayles: How many times is it okay to play hookey from work [or school] in a year?

in a year? well. maybe like 3 times. i guess. if you’re ok with it. yeah. or zero. i’m morally obligated to say zero. but let’s go with 3 anyway!

well. that wasn’t too bad.

sorry, school teachers/moms/bosses that might read. :shock:

ok. starter question: sunBLOCK – yay or nay?

rules: answer the last one, leave the next one.

and y’all behave. auntie tam will be around to make sure you play nice. and she’ll close things out on wednesday morning ….. IF she remembers – you know, old age & all. ;)

thanks tam!!!!!
