Republican Rainbow Yarn

Rainbows are following me everywhere this week. I dug one up from my yarn stash at an inopportune moment:

Autumn: "Go away rainbow. I'm feeling a little too emo for you right now. I want to listen to Emily Jane White and and eat Stephen Colbert's AmeriCone Dream, but only because I'm hungry, and too lazy to cook anything."

Rainbow Yarn : "I understand, but don't lie, you are craving sherbet. I can read you like a book, and I'm a ball of fucking yarn."

Autumn: "A cussing ball of yarn? That's too bad, you were going to be knitted into legwarmers for my niece."

Rainbow Yarn : "Bullshit! You want me all to yourself, you hippie bitch!"

Autumn: "Wow, you sure are a smart ball of fucking yarn, aren't you?"

Rainbow Yarn: "Look, I'm just getting so tired of you left wing liberals with your pork barrel spending, trying to save the planet, and all that shit."

Autumn: "Has someone been watching Fox News in my home?"

Rainbow Yarn: "No, didn't you read my label? I'm 70% wool and 30% Sean Hannity toupee"

Autumn: "Well, I was close. You are right about me though. I'm going to macrame your ass into a bookmark for myself, but you will only be used in non-fiction by Keith Olbermann, Lou Dobbs, or Al Franken."

What happened after that is a mystery. I thought my stash box was safely stowed away, but somehow said yarn must have "fallen out". Eli proceeded to chew it into a million little knots while I was out shopping.

I still made a bookmark.

The end.

YAY!
