I glanced up, and in the tree right above us sat a red-shouldered hawk. I whispered for Lorelei to back up slowly. I got my camera out of the car and got a quick video.
(It's a good thing Lorelei got that answer right...how embarrassing would that have been, a child of mine not knowing her hawks?
For the first time, I got a personalized license plate. A shiny new Subaru needs some bling!
Here's the contest...let's see how well some of you know me.
A standard plate has room for seven letters and one space. I used them all.
First person to guess correctly (or the closest guess) what I chose for my plate gets this:
Silver bracelet with heart-shaped toggle clasp, and a cute, lightweight charm. The beads are metallic glass and green/pink stones.
Leave your guess in the comments.
And....begin!

ReplyDeleteHow many guesses do we get?

ReplyDeleteor RAPTOR 1 since you used the space
ReplyDeleteAll:
ReplyDeleteAs many guesses as it takes.
No one has it yet, but those are good ones!
(RAPTOR1 is already taken by someone in Ohio)

ReplyDelete~Kathi, who hasn't seen the plate, so cannot be accused of cheating
Oh, crap. Past bedtime and I'm wracking my brain over your license plate.

LOL at Swami! Okay, well, I think RAPTOR was a great guess! You can't say I don't know you!
ReplyDeleteRAPTOR with something around it, before, after, whatever.

Ok, so my mind started wondering towards the end there....
Wow. I needed you guys around when I was debating what to put on it!
ReplyDeleteThose are AWESOME!
Kathi wins with her guess of P FALCON.
I'll do another contest, since some of you are probably pouting.
(Owlman really went off the deep end, didn't he?)
: )
I DEMAND A RECOUNT! ;-)
ReplyDeleteDANGIT! I was going with PER GRN
ReplyDeleteActually, I may have to give my prize to Owlman, only if he promises to wear it into sports bars, gyms, strip clubs, and any other macho place he goes.
ReplyDelete~K
I'm sure my buddies at the fire department would love it! ;-)
ReplyDeleteWell, guess that's what I get for thinking too long. You never end the contests so soon, but I wouldn't have guessed the answer anyhow.
ReplyDeleteHere I am, late to the party...
ReplyDeleteYou got some hilarious comments this time around Susan!
P FALCON - that is sooo cool! Congats Katdoc!
ReplyDeleteNow I'm going away with a pout on. I thought RAPTOR something or other was pretty damned good! LOL!
Just like Lynne, I am late to the show. Owlman and Katdoc totally rocked out. All I could do was count. Kathi will look lovely with that bracelet.
ReplyDeleteP FALCON. Geeesh. Yay for Katdoc! These comments were hilarious. I think we need to find more ways to entertain the child in us...games, contests, and prizes rock.
ReplyDeleteYou KNOW you need to publish your new plate for us...
BTW, remember that pretty bracelet you gave me last year? I wore it often last summer and EVERYONE commented on how it suited me...even the detention officers and swat team liked it. Mainly the female officers, of course... they're tough as nails but like nice jewelry :o) Just sayin'.
ReplyDeletewell it's good to know Kathi won and knows you so well Susan! (my guess was IASK WTF)
ReplyDeleteWell, Susan, what can I add? It's all been so well said by others, and Owlman's mind was working overtime. Apparently his acronym brain cells went into overload. I agree with KatDoc, give him the bracelet as long as he wears it to work! BTW, that's one fine braclet! You are so talented! (Can you make bracelets from owl pellets I wonder?)
