Bowlers come and bowlers go, but there’s no rest for the wicket

(think of the game of Cricket)

And I thought they liked to vacation at a dark and stormy night.

I’d like her to be around more often. Because that witch doesn’t kill you, makes you stronger.

I hope she has on both sunblock and Scotchgard…

She better watch out when the tide comes in!

Uh isn’t it kinda dangerous for her to be near the water like that?

She likes to observe the sea monkeys. Someone should buy her a sand"witch" and build her a sandcastle.

Elphaba?

You’d think she’d vacation a little less close to the water. Like, perhaps, Egypt.

This is the version of the saying I grew up with but later in life heard it said as “no rest for the weary”. If you’re both weary and wicked you’re really, really tired, I’d guess.

Wonder what color green goes when tanned?

If she doesn’t want to be bothered by gawkers, she should try for a different look. Like maybe a house on top of her?

Living on the edge being that close to the ocean…

“I know, let’s dump water on her.”

Aaaahhhhhhahahahahaha

Witches Be Loco!

I not sure why a wicked witch would be sun bathing near water. It seems a bit risky.
