Clowns, Socks, and Chicken Pox

Recent conversation with my mom and sister:

Sister: Remember you put socks on my hands when I had the Chicken Pox--so I couldn't scratch?

Mom: Yes! Mandy, do you remember what I had to put socks on for you when you were little?

Me: My clown lamp.

Mom: Hahaha! Yes!



Okay, so what? I was terrified of this little thing. I made my mom put a sock over that horrible little clown so he couldn't taunt me with his dumb face.



I can't recall whether his dog upset me too... but probably. Just look at it. ::shudder::

So I guess that would be the wrong thing to get you for your wedding?

/sigh

lol I also had that lamp as a kid and had similar feelings about the clown. Something was just a little off about him...

The clown's freakyass ears creep me out but it's the dog that is truly horrifying. I doubt I would be able to sleep in the same room as that lamp.

Ohmygosh, you are hilarious! I love your description of the clown and his sad lil pup. This post made me laugh out loud! And yeah, that clown is totally freaky.

AHHHH! I think the creepy little dog is almost scarier than the creepy little clown.
