Welcome to Punny Monday. Every Sunday evening about midnight Pacific Standard time I post an original photo and ask my readers to figure out what was going on in my brain (or Amoeba’s) when he/I/we made it.
What idiom does this photo represent? EMAIL your answers and leave a comment designed to either help or confuse your fellow game players. The first contestant to EMAIL me the right answer wins a featured link in my blog which will display until next Monday when we’ll play this little game again. Enjoy.
PLEASE, do not write your guess in the comments. It spoils the game for the other players. Your guesses will be shared when the game ends. Oh, and just because someone announces they’ve won, doesn’t mean that they have. Please keep guessing until I post the answers!

Well I think this is easy. My guess is in. Night Night
Thom — must be easy, you won. oxoxox
Q ya need to make them this easy all the time LOL No abstract thinking invovled. Thanks
Thom — I didn’t have any energy left for being creative. Too many miles. Too little sleep.
And why isn’t my badge showing up on your site for being the winner? HMMM Balderdash!!!!
Thom — Try WAIT. I have other things in my life besides this blog you know! Amoeba is thinking breakfast would be nice. I have a mountain of laundry. There are no groceries in the house. And I’ve yet to go to the bathroom! Sheesh!
Any old excuse…pffft.
And yet you have time to post videos and make more comments on my blog PFFFT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What are you bitching about now? I put yur flipping links up BEFORE I read and commented on other blogs! Last time though. Next time you win I’ll put them up Sunday afternoon and take’m down Monday morning! Pft.
MWAH!!!!! I still on’t see my beautiful name and photo in lights on your blog for my outstanding win
Your name and blog are in the right sidebar. Your photo in lights is pasted to the dartboard in our garage.
Gee and I thought ants crawling on my table were awful…
.-= gel´s last blog ..Amputation Hurts =-.
Gel — better your table than your pants.
definitely-
I was trying to think of something funny about kidney, but since my kidneys were the reason I was awake to submit for punny mon, my brain was fried or …my thoughts sounded too much like childish potty humor. Didn’t want to make you “waste” your time on such nonsense. Thanks for still putting this up, given that you’d been busy with life!
.-= gel´s last blog ..Amputation Hurts =-.
I have a “gut” feeling this has nothing to do with a certain type of stone.
.-= gel´s last blog ..Amputation Hurts =-.
Gel — you’re right.
E-mailed my guess!
.-= Mar´s last blog ..the kids are allright =-.
Mar — got it!
Guess is on it’s way,
.-= Bill´s last blog ..Microfiction Monday #20 =-.
Bill — got it.
This one did seem easy, but I am obviously not first!
I’ll be back later to read your other posts.
.-= Barbara H.´s last blog ..Going Home =-.
Barbara — the time change has changed a few things!
Does this go up at a different time now? I seem to recall it being much easier to be one of the first, even though I’m rarely correct.
Think I have it this time though.
Mumma — I live in a different time zone now. It goes up as midnight, just like always, i’s just midnight is 3 hours earlier than it used to be.
Thom, I agree it looks easy. I’m trying not to let the cat out of the bag.
.-= Doug´s last blog ..The Reformation of Wolfshausen =-.
Doug — the dogs want you to let the cat out of the bag.
True, now why is your site playing the Pointer Sisters?
.-= Doug´s last blog ..The Reformation of Wolfshausen =-.
Doug — Microfiction #20 is why!
My guess is sent and I’m sure I am not the first with the correct answer!!!
.-= Jane´s last blog ..I Am SO Honored =-.
Jane — you’re right, you’re not.
I’m sure I’m way late to the party, but I have to send it in!
.-= Mocha with Linda´s last blog ..A Doubly Delightful Giveaway! =-.
Linda — the party was over almost instantly, but play anyway. It’s all in fun.
Tee-hee! This is one I get! But I won’t divulge my guess…Listen, Quilly, I’ve got a very special present for you today. Please drop by and pick it up!
.-= Melissa B.´s last blog ..There’s a New Sheriff in Town =-.
Melissa — thanks! And why didn’t you guess?!
Boy I’m way behind with this one! Oh well, better late than never.
.-= Granny Annie´s last blog ..IN SEARCH OF SPRING =-.
Granny Annie — I am always glad to see you no matter when you arrive.
Really??? REALLY??? Boy…. I better come up with more than the one OBVIOUS answer – cuz you’re probably being TRICKY today or something… I can’t believe you’d throw us all a bone like this!!!
.-= Melli´s last blog ..Lovely Weekend =-.
Melli — you forgot I was jet-lagged, didn’t you? This was the best the brain had.
Awwww…. and I thought you were just bein’ nice to Thom…
.-= Melli´s last blog ..Lovely Weekend =-.
Melli — shhhhh! He’s thinking he’s all that. You don’t want to go bursting his bubble now, do you?
.
That’s nice, Quilly. Sure I picked it up too (several versions??) but seven plus hours after you posted it. Guess I should set my alarm.
But I don’t go to bed until after 1 AM Texas time. Oh well, it really is nice!
..
BTW, my post today has ‘let sleeping dogs lie’ but I didn’t make people guess.
..
.-= Jim´s last blog ..Dog for sale or adoption — Sunday night / Monday morning — Awww…Mondays =-.
Jim — what do you mean by “several versions”?
I’m going to have to go to bed a little later or get up earlier. I have fun just being an observer, though.
.-= Raven´s last blog ..Saturday Wordzzle Challenge, Week 101 =-.
Raven — as long as you’re having fun!
I got it I got it!!! Too bad I’m late I’m late for a very important date
.-= shelly´s last blog ..Sedums =-.
Shelly — someday you’ll make it in time. On that the day pun will be impossibly hard though.
wow, thom got it first – must be something on – the tsunami, perhaps
.-= polona´s last blog ..postcard =-.
Polona — the extra adrenalin from the excitement actually gave him a thought!
CONGRADS, THOM!
Quilly- sorry about the email mistake. You see, the gmail email for you shows up on comments you leave on my blog, so I thought that was the one to send to. Hopefully, my brain will remember the right email!
.-= gel´s last blog ..Amputation Hurts =-.
Gel — just delete the gmail link from your mailbox. The Sunday night reminders always come from my quilly@quilldancer addy. That is also the addy you get if you click on the links in my blog.
Yeah Thom!!!
So glad he won one.
(It was easy.)
.-= Carletta´s last blog ..Rainbow Sherbet Dreams =-.
