Our local paper has a trivia-type photo game to play. A photographer will shoot a picture of any object of his or her choosing that is located somewhere in the county. They publish a portion of the photo in the newspaper, and the object is to guess what you're viewing. The next day, they publish the entire photo. I have no idea what you win if you guess correctly. Probably nothing but the satisfaction of a job well done.
In honor of this game, I give you the following section of a photo I took.
Know what it is yet? If you guessed Swiss cheese, you're wrong.
If you guessed "Plastic diaper cover accidentally tossed in dryer", you win! Congratulations! Much like our newspaper, the gift you get is your own satisfaction.
Now, before you go thinking I'm all green and whatnot, never fear. I'm neither overly environmentally sensitive, OR
stupid ambitious enough to use cloth diapers. Did that with my first two to save money. Discovered I'd rather be slightly sane than rich. Switched to She Who Must Be Hated By Eco-Conscious Wackos.
The
real reason I
have had these
crinkly panties, as they're referred to in our house, is because not only am I of the
Anti-Global Warming Frenzy lot of Americans...I am also a card-carrying member of the

What dumb thing have YOU done lately?

Ah, you didn't give us a chance to guess!
Not that I would ever have guessed.
Dumb thing I did this week--I bought a ceramic knife. You know, those super-sharp ones that never lose their edge? Only six months after trying to cut my finger off with a regular knife. Smart, huh?
And does this mean you have stitches in three fingers now?
