Coffee with Pink Marshmallows

If someone can tell me why I pranced in and out of my front door with this balloon, instead of burning 60 year 6 leavers CDROM disks, or packing more boxes with my house move just days away.....please do!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Whoo hoo. Explored. Cheers :-)

    You found a pair of pink strides in the back of the wardrobe and were so pleased they still fit you ran out of the house wearing only them and a pink baloon and being a dedicated Flickerette you set up the camera and tripod first to record it for posterity, or should that be posteriorority.

    simple - you have your priorities straight - love life!

    we are all just pawns in Tony's ultimate plan to rule the word, so we just listen and obey.

    Very creative and fun.

    You wanted to show off your butt?

  28. harry harris (47 months ago | reply)

    Sos, as someone married to a teacher.. sooner or later your brain says, "No more cutting out photos with crinkly scissors, I need some fun!".

    Good luck with the move. Which will be perfectly planned and executed, with an amusing home movie of it afterwards. Won't it? :)

    sounds like a sabatical from flickr is called for! 8-)

    I think because taking pictures is so much more fun than packing boxes for house move.

  44. Arieseffects (47 months ago | reply)

    HAHAHAHAHAHA....awesome shot! Sorry I have no clue why! Perhaps because you wanted EXPLORE! Great job! The pink is Awesome!

  45. friedkampes (47 months ago | reply)

    I suppose you just went out with your balloon for a hygienic walk just because you knew we'd like you to! And you were right!

    It's funny that most women when they are walking with bare foot they tend to walk on their toes. Why do you do that really?
