Once upon a time a princess was walking in the palace grounds. She sat down by a lily pond. A frog hopped up onto a lily pad near her and said:

“Beautiful princess, hear my story. I am really a handsome prince. I was out hunting, in hot pursuit of a stag, when an ugly old woman walked in front of me. I shouted to her to get out of my way, and slashed at her with my whip. A very stupid thing to do, as I didn’t know she was a witch. She turned on me, and shouted a curse. Suddenly I turned into a frog. I hopped back to the castle, and told my story to the royal magician. He said the only way the curse could be lifted, and I be restored to my proper shape, would be if I spent the night in the bed of a beautiful princess. My father has sent heralds all around, but no princess is willing to spend the night with a frog.”

The princess, having a kind heart, was very touched by this sad story.

“I will help you. Hop into my purse and I will smuggle you back into the palace.”

She took the frog back to her bedroom, and placed it on her pillow before getting into bed. She said goodnight to the frog, blew out the candle, and went to sleep. When she woke up the next morning, the spell had been broken. She was in bed with a handsome young man.

Unfortunately, neither did the maid who brought in her morning tea and neither did her parents.

Just got my new bread box, two days early:


New Bread Box

New Bread Box


Like about 85% of what I order from Amazon, it came with a tiny bit of damage. There's an ever-so-small dent just above that little logo on the lower-right side; big enough to be noticed, small enough to not make it worthwhile to return. Another reason I generally dislike ordering online. 😤

I got a second smile, though. I was in the middle of watching a Jean Rollin film, and if anyone is familiar with him, his movies can get a little racy, in that kind of cartoonish way some pre-1980's movies can.

Well, there was a fairly explicit scene going on, right when the Amazon guy showed up, so I paused the movie, just to see where he was going to drop my package, and to my surprise, he actually knocked on my door and waited on me (put that down under "Things That Used To Be Normal That Are Now Weird").

I opened the door, and the way the living room is arranged, my big-screen TV is easily viewable. He was wearing a face mask, and it was a bit of a tee-hee moment, seeing him glance at the TV, catch a glimpse of the...erm, fully exposed young woman on the screen, then seeing his eyes get twice as big as he did a "what the...?" double-take!:roflmao:
