Random thoughts for the day

by Danielle | March 16, 2010

If you punch something into your phone in the search engine and then hold the phone to your ear like its going to actually talk to you, is it time for more sleep or some sort of medication?

Does anyone else have a husband who wants them to knit a giant sock monkey suit after seeing this darn commercial?

I just don’t know if it is worth it. I mean, Phil is a little guy and he did promise to stand on the corner and advertise the store if I knitted him a giant sock monkey suit…but really? How would we get him into it? Would I literally knit him in or add a big flap on the butt that he can crawl into? This project has just so many unanswered questions.

I did find a smaller version on Ravelry that looks awfully cute.It is by Rebecca Zelt from It She Knits.

I am thinking Cascade Eco Wool or Stonehedge Shepherd’s Wool.  Really, if I were to knit a man sized sock monkey suit, it should be out of wool in mid summer, just to torture him for asking me for something so stupid.

    I don’t get the Kia commercials…. I am supposed to want a Kia because my sock monkey will be jealous?? Or because all the cool hamsters are driving them?? Color me puzzled. I do love sock monkeys, though, even if I won’t buy a car to please them….

    My husband likes the part of the commercial that shows the sock monkey getting a “Mom” tattoo sewn onto his arm. If you make the suit, you’d have to add that. :0)

    The sock monkey suit might not fit your classy neighborhood, but it would sure be funny!

    I agree with Suzie. Tattoo is a must. Although you could make it say something else in the heart. I also agree with jennmoles that I can’t decide why I am to trust the toys as to what the coolest car is. But it tickles me nonetheless.
