The monday errands

Kay Possum's! My Dad is such a nerd! There's trouble brewin when we pass a Hobby Lobby! This bein one of his favorite places to visit! I know your an artist Dad, but do we really have to stop today?



With millions of outfits in my closet, He feels that I need another one. My wardrobe deptpartment came along and picked out this fabric for my next celeb look! Cut the fabric already! Can we go?



Now here's my favorite part! Moucha latte counter! This is the clerk that made our coffee for the outtin! Woooo-who! I'll be a runnin around sock monkey today!



Now this is what life is made of! A good cup of joe that's chocolate flavored! A wink of my button eye to the kind lady makin it! Folks are always glad to have their pictures made with me! I love it! I sat back in my chair and was just enjoyin the day and sippin my coffee! Life is plum good!





Did I have to much coffee and now seein pink elephants? A quick wave to our Sock monkeys friends at Kia! They did approach me for their commercial back when, But I was busy and off to another photo shoot. Slap me five! $149.00 and a job and you too can rida the pink elephant! Happy Monday Possum's! Bubba out!

Ciacadas

Hey Possum's! For those of you that live in TN.,did ya ever wonder what that loud sound is when ya go outside this time of year? It's the 13 years cicadas. They have come up out of the ground. The sound you hear is the males making their matin call. It takes a full 13 years for them to mature.



This is what they look like. They sometimes fly right into you when your ouside. Their pretty harmless. They don't bite or anything like that. It's the buzz here and they talk about them quite often on the news. Bug collectors are havin a feild day right now. They've studied them. That's the word for this Wednesday. Bubba

Stuff like that there

Hello Possum's of the Tuesday mornin warehouse! Sittin here on the front steps enjoyin the best day ever! The coffee has already been downed and the day has begun! My business manager has paid the cell bill this mornin. YIPEEEEEEEE! I have cell service for another month. 1-800-celeb-Sock-Monkey...how may I help you? Bubba G. Thorton here. The G. stands for something we can't rightly pronouce here in the swamps of Alabama! I'm just kiddin Possum's! I shall now do the Indian dance of the tomato plants! May they grow and produce fruit! 2-3-4. Chefs? Food network? NA! Give me a tomato sandwich drippin with mayo please! I have people to wipe it off my mouth! It's okay! Did someone say Ice Cream? I distinctly heard someone say ice cream. That means it's time to close The Sock Drawer on another day. Bubba

Being cool on a Monday night

Kay Possum's...Most people hate Mondays. Mondays can actually be kind of a cool night if ya'll let it. I'm here in wardrobe with my people. I wasn't liken the long sleeve shirt they gave me for these pants the other day. Why? It's summertime! Hot people! So I told them RE-DO! What did I get next? This yellow shirt. I'm preparin for a trip in the very near future. I'll be ready for the ROADTRIP! I'll not spill the beans as to where I'm going. The Pavarazzi simply have to be kept in the dark of my where-a-bouts. To much camera flash could fade my brown sock skin. I mean let's face it...I am over 50 years old and I'm already faded. But not into the background! I will never let that happen! I'm a Sock monkey on the go and I have somewhere to go and a story to tell...So I'm gonna tell it! The days are countin down till I leave the Sock Drawer to get out and about. This is a place I've never been before in the 25 years history I've been doin my websites/blog and what have you. New material Possum's. I'm gonna keep ya'll in the loop as much as possible. But for now I'm gonna sit here on a Monday night with a bunch of mindless blog. We'll just call it suspense............................................Let's see if I can give ya'll a clue for the next trip on the books. WOOD! That's the clue!! See if ya'll can guess. I'll betcha ya can't get it! That's all I'm gonna say on the subject. Nope! No more clues. Maybe I'll give ya'll clues throughout the rest of the week. Or not. Bubba

Hangin at the gossip fence

Well Possum's, its another Monday. I was hangin out at the gossip fence wonderin what I could get into today. After the MTV awards last night,I was a little tuckered out from stayin up late to watch. Gotta keep myself well informed as ya'll well know. My celeb status is overwhelmin sometimes. So I decided to head into town and see what's happenin. Not much to report on there ,but I found some beautiful fountains to relax by on my outtin.


My photo manager got some strange looks as he was photgraphin Bubba the Sock Monkey runnin through town. Autographs? yeah that too. Ran into a few fans whom wanted their pics taken with me. I'm always glad to do so.



This is Bubba reportin for the Monday news. I'll close The Sock Drawer now. Bubba

In the good old summer time

Hello summertime Possum's!! As every year like clock work since we moved to Nashville....Hangin at the Parthanon in the park! Just thought we'd get out and about on such a warm summer day. The parthanon holds our very own golden girl "Athena"! Goddess of something or another. All I really know about her is she's this giant statue in a buildin! Feet as big as our toyota sittin in the driveway! Yeah...she's a big girl.



I found myself in the stranest places on this trip to the park. We treid to look at things a little different. Some bronze guy statue about war stuff ya know. My photo manager thought it would be a good shot. He's not the one balancin over his head on his hand liftin up to a tall statue , he had to climb himself just to get the shot! Can you say arrested Possum's? So I thought I'd pose so we could hurry up and get this over with. Hurry! The cops aren't lookin! Ssssssshhhhhhhh! Your makin to much noise!!!! (SNAP OF CAMERA) Well it's about time! Now get me down from here! No! Don't run away and leave me up here!



Stone bridges over water seem to be one of my favorite shots. It bring a since. of tranquil to a Sock Monkey in the park.



Ducks swimmin around and fountains shootin up out of the pond. I personally know they will come in close because folks are always feedin them. For excitin destination info there is a island out in the pond called duck island and they really live on it. Just a little fasenatin fact about Nashville. Since the travel channel spends all it's time tryin to compete with the food network, I'll keep ya'll informed. Just a FYI...



It's a plane on a stick! I say every park needs one of these! Well I'll be dipped in chocolate and nuts!!!! Roll around for a while just feelin plain nutty! Hey! Where's the remote? I take it I'm not suppose to ask that?



I'll just sit in front of the stick and pretend it's my own personal plane comin to take me to my next celeb gig! Yeah! That's it!



Well I'm on a train out of here Possum's! TGIF! Bubba
