Look what I made!

Ladies and Gentlemen, may I introduce -- for the first time anywhere -- my sock monkey!



Cute, no? The kit said it would take an hour, but it actually took WAY longer than that.

Anyway, he needs a name. Any suggestions?

Stinkey!

I was thinking about naming him after my brother anyway. . . .

Mock!

(As in a JLo-ized version of Monkey Sock.)

How about Cheeky? ;-)

Hey!

I shower almost every day.

dara said...

E:) -- That's clever. But do I really want to think of J.Lo. every time I look at him?

Ryane: ha ha ha, Cheeky Monkey, ha ha ha! That's great, and veddy veddy British.

Nick: All valid choices, except George. Because, other than Curious George, all I'd think about are the president and Senator Allen. And anything with "holey" is probably no good, since they were new socks.

Justin: Hasn't that one been taken already?

Peter: I knew there was a reason you didn't either of your children Twizzler. You were saving the name for my monkey!

Evil Spock: Hmmm. He does look a little like a boxer.

Enuki: That's what you get for leaving smart-ass anonymous comments in the middle of the night (eastern time). Still, I thought you were implying that my sock monkey-sewing skillz were stinky. Which hurt my feelings.

Mrs. Mogul: It really didn't take THAT much time. All told, I think it took about 4 hours, most of which was while I was watching TV. And it probably would have taken less time if I didn't accidentally sew the tail inside out and then have to fix it.

Possible names:

- Spunky
- Hot Pants
- Punky Bro-ster
- Banana
- Apple chunks

Needtsza: Banana is logical, but Apple Chunks sounds like an euphemism for barf.

Spunky and Punky Bro-ster seem to indicate that you have a secret obsession with Punky Brewster. Care to elaborate?

And why Hot Pants?
