HM Is Still On The Toilet

Since inquiring minds want to know...

I could not take an actual photo of the one in my building. Then
I might be perceived as an industrial spy. Our walls aren't nice
and tiley like this. They are concrete blocks painted white. I
certainly hope that I am not sitting on the throne when that giant
earthquake hits, the one that will make the Mississippi River run
backwards again, because this monstrosity could fall on my head
and knock me the freak out, by cracky!

Now let's talk about my Hillbilly Mom quiz. Because the only way

the current aroma of the Mansion from your computer.

Okay I sucked it on that quiz, but in my defense I couldn't read all of the answers. It only showed the first four or five words, then it just cut it off.

So you know this means you have to meet me after school to let me retake it, right?

MamaKBear said...

Did that for me too...showed the first four or five words, so I had to make up the rest of the question myself for some of them, based on the choices of answers. :P

Well, at least I tried!

Thanks Hillbilly Momma, you're the best! I've seen those ginormous TP dispensers...it looks big enough for some a DoNot to hide in.

Hope you don't bump your head on that thing.

Miss Ann,
This quiz thingy must have New Blogger disease. At least you got the Wally question right!

I stay after school every day. You might as well join me.

MamaKB,
I'll give you an 'A' for effort. You don't have to stay after to retake it.

Chick,
I can't bump my head because it is TOO FREAKIN' HIGH!
