18 Timezones Can't Keep Us Apart

For some of us here at the Bonnieblog, we thought the Bonnie's epic adventure to the shire would mark some sort of hiatus for our bonnieblog duties. As if her two weeks in Mordor meant two weeks without new tales of Bonniedom and wacky Bonnie anecdotes. Well, we were wrong... Dead wrong.

No more than a day had passed by since her departure to middle-earth before the phone rang at Bonnieblog HQ (that stands for head quarters for those of you not in the know). On the other end of the line we heard the voice of angels, otherwise known as Bonnie. What could be so important that the Bonnie would take time away from her quest to destroy Sauron just to call BBHQ? (that's short for Bonnieblog HQ) I'll tell you what was so important... there was a sale at TJ Maxx and the Bonnie desperately needed a coat.

In her defense it was an incredible value. A $600 coat marked down to $60?!?!?! She couldn't afford not to buy it, and so she sent Steph on a quest of her own, the quest to find the TJ Maxx coat. Did Steph succeed in conquering the minions of possessed middle-aged Ork-women and obtain the One coat? With the spirit of the Bonnie at her side and in her heart, steph was able to delve deep into the nether-regions of TJ Maxx, find the One coat, slay an army of Ork-women, escape unharmed, and return safely to BBHQ to report to the Bonnie that her mission impossible had been accomplished.

On a side note, upon hearing that the mission was accomplished, the Bonnie notified Steph that she had changed her mind and that she no longer needed the One coat.

*as a side note to this posting, the reason for the numerous Lord of the Rings references is that the Bonnie is currently in New Zealand, which as we all know is where Frodo and Sam began their journey to destroy the One ring.
