My background is too pink. Pink has never been my favorite color. But I like the picture.
So...today...it is cold and colder and coldest. The snow has quit coming down. What worries me is it is supposed to get warmer over the weekend, melt the snow and rain on top of that. It did that two years ago (or was it 3?) and ppl north of us got flooded out of their homes and we got water running through our basement...had to rip up carpeting and do a whole thing about wall board removal and replacing and it was a mess. Supposedly the big leak problems were fixed...but I'm not so sure.
Hey...don't borrow trouble...right? But I don't borrow it...I just take it, keep it, give it water and food and watch it grow!
I guess I'd better get on that stuff I've been putting off doing this morning. New Year...need to start it off right. I'm not sure why I can't just do what's left instead of right (I heard that groan!
what do you expect from me?
)
I'm not wild about pink either....but you're right...it is a nice picture...it's too bad that there's not some sort of program out there that lets you change the color of the background without messing up the actual picture....
That was my brother-in-law's favorite expression - "Whatever blows your skirt up." I looked up the origin and meaning of the phrase from Wordwizard Clubhouse and this is what I found:
WHATEVER FLOATS YOUR BOAT phrase (also whatever blows your skirt up) [1980s and still in use] (U.S.): A general phrase of acquiescence; whatever you like; whatever make you happy. (Cassell’s Dictionary of Slang)
Other expressions that are close, but perhaps have a slightly different meaning to some are:
WHATEVER TURNS YOU ON (phrase) [1970s and still in use]: Whatever you like, whatever makes you happy, especially a slightly sarcastic response to a revelation of a particularly bizarre or distasteful pleasure (usually sexual) (Cassell’s Dictionary of Slang)
WHATEVER BAKES ONE’S BISCUIT (phrase) [2000s] (U.S.): Whatever makes one happy or satisfied. (Cassell’s Dictionary of Slang)
