Gription- meaning traction with grip.
Honey: Don't you think we need these tub things for gription? You leave the bathtub like an icy sidewalk.
Me: I guess it wouldn't be a bad idea.
Later on I'm folding laundry and it occurs to me that gription isn't a real word, it's just something we say all the time that I had to stop and think about.
On Our Address:
Friend calls: I need your address for my annual security background check. (I'm thinking ... they want Honey to do this???)
Honey: OK, got a pen? Yeah? 1122, yes 1122. Boogie Boogie Avenue.
Friend: Dammit! I was writing that down!
Honey: You'll be lucky if you can get a job at a Temp service after they call me.
Later on picking up the paper at the 7-11, I notice a display of 7-11 job opportunities. Handy little cards that say "Now hiring", a job booklet including an application and some other propaganda. I grab one of each to pass onto friend, just in case.....
I can't stop saying 1122 Boogie Boogie Avenue. Say it! It's fun, like Bung-a-low. Or Pump-kin. you know you want to say it... SOUP-EEEEERRRRR !

Gription -- you should patent that. Or at least get gription.com
Is Boogie Boogie Avenue from a song? Must be before my time (and I'm ancient, I know). So catchy.
