Are you daft?

I still refer to myself as a flibbertygibbet, though I've seen it spelled other ways too. I've called myself a fussbudget too.

Now, don't lollygag around.

My Gramps used to warn me against engaging in tomfoolery, but I think someone may have said that one already.

A couple more for the road:

...on a wing and a prayer
...lickety split
...snug as a bug in a rug

whenever someone complained about getting old my grandpa(& now dad does too) said "its better than the alternative"

little_ms_sunshyne 06-18-2011 11:45 PM

"Ambulance you got a chance...If its a hearse its got to be worse"

Not sure how old this one is...but I love it! lol

"Why isn't she just cuter than a bug's ear?"

Well of Loneliness
 
When a was very young, I used to refer to myself as a "sexual invert" because that was what people in my rural town called me "like me" back then.

I used it about half a dozen times after I moved to San Francisco, but no one knew what the Sam Hill I was talking about, so I stopped.


Yes, Dorthy, I really am 63 in many, many ways.

*Cheers to my ex, Radcliff Hall*

"Yerba mala nunca muere."

Lol. I remember that one too - my mom used to say it about my father all the time. She wasn't too far from the truth - he died a few months ago at the age of 91!

Now imagine this conversation in Spanish...yup..very animated.

When referring to "grooming" your special areas...Grandma's advice to me was (keep in mind I didnt ask for any advice),

"If there is no nest, there will be no bird" Ummmm..wonder if Grandma realizes I am not looking for any visits from birds lol
