I have been asked how I came up with the name "Pole Vaulting Hippo's" as my bloggie name? Well world hang on tight and I will share with you the endlessly strange imagination I have! The Hippo part of the name is simple- I love hippos, I collect hippos, and they are my fave animal! Now the pole vaulting part- imagine a hippo pole vaulting- it's funny and also physically impossible. However they way I think of it, it's a name that makes me smile everytime I log on and also an oxymoron. I love oxymorons! Sometimes I feel like I am one. A pale white girl born and raised in Florida next to some of the most glamorous beaches...but always sunburns and never tans!
I also followed the olympics this year and felt that the pole vault would be the funniest event name I could use. I loved waching swimming on T V but that's what a hippos does anyway! LOL
~FRIEND UPDATE~ I am going to start doing this to let you all know if I have made a friend yet!
I almost thought I did but in the end it doesn't seem so! Well another day at work today and there are 500 employees at my HEB Plus Store so one has got to want to hang out after work with me eventually... I hope!

You crack me up! I can't help but chuckle as I read this post. Great name - great laugh!!! Hey girl - you know I'm a friend.
Just remember who the greatest friend is! J-E-S-U-S! Don't spend so much time looking for a friend that you miss the one that matters most!
