elaine's strange little world

i now have 60 meese! cin gave me 3 more for new year's, bringing the total up to 60. amazing. i need to photograph these meese, 'cause they're awesome. one has magnets in his hands and feet, and so clings to things, monkey style. it's a monkey moose! i haven't figured out his name yet. the other two...well, they're simply awesome. they're nearly identical, except one is a light, milk chocolate brown, and the other is pale white. one is named hot chocolate, and the other is hot milk. they're chocolate scented, which is amusing. cindy gave them to me and said, "they can be your first moose couple! guess which one is you?" hehehe. i was highly amused, and so was david, when i showed them to him. so yes, i now have a moose couple.

meese descriptions and names!

by way of explanation, the descriptions really only make sense if you have seen the meese or have talked to cin or me about them....some of them are straight descriptions, but others are inside jokes and other such things. and the names are all candy based, with a some deviations like coffee. yeah. they're highly silly, i know.
