Yes, I know you had your suspicions but now you've got it first from the source---I'm nuts. 100% certifiable. Lock me up and make it fast before I buy anything else crazy. Let me back up...
Ten years ago it was the five foot metal butler cat that I fell in love with that I did not buy and to this day still regret.
Five years ago it was a five foot metal rooster that I fell for that is now residing my front yard.
Two years ago it was the metal three foot hen that I just had to have (to go with the rooster) that is now happily frolicking in the middle of my wild poppies out front.
Last year there was the three foot metal Peacock that is now happily perched on top of the backyard office/guest house.
And today, yes today, I met my match... a five foot long metal marlin. It is the most hideous-hilarious-tacky-happy darn fish I think I have ever seen. So what did I do? Yep I bought it for the outside of guest house. I've been working on what the heck to do with that space for the past five years and two days ago inspiration struck. Mr T loves his tropical wear and libations and truly does live on island time so why not go with the tacky tropical tourist theme---after all if you cannot fight it ya might as well go with it --- right?
Now we still have to paint the office so you will not get a full tour of the space until it it complete. But I have temporarily placed the big guy in there so.... introducing Mr Marlin...
