How did she find that ibex you ask? The ibex index of course.

Darned handy, those ibices.

Ibex that’s embarrassing…

Spot an ibex and hooting rights fall from the sky above.

Ibex you say that to all the boys..

For the Awk Ward families, and the girl got your goat for going zombie brain dead in level four Xbox ‘tickle the pickle’.

…Jasper, the friendly Ibex goat ghost…

…was very kind to listen to Trina’s tale about getting tail fin soup for suffering out loud…

…but Jasper had his own problems…

…his horns had the anti- Peyronie’s disease…

…called, unicorn~saywhat…

…it was a tail curling story…

…and everytime Jasper sneezed…

…his ghost goat Ibex horns straightened up like a blown party favor…

…in fact…

…that was how Jasper died…

…but he can’t tell it here,right now…

…Trina’s blabbering on about frogsicles…

Give credit where it’s due. An ibex for an imaginary companion is pretty out there.

Can you still say ‘out there’?

If the ibex is also looking down at her phone, well, I’ll listen.

Pretend? I always talk to my ibex. Her name is Bex. She is my guide animal, for when I am climbing walls. Don’t try to pet her. She is working.

Plus, they’re good listeners.

Let’s be honest with ourselves, chica, your ibex doesn’t want to listen to you either! You’d have a better chance of finding an audience with a half-deaf oryx!

I feel this way…the older I get the more invisible I become….

Then when they ask what was I going to say, I just say it wasn’t important or I forgot. Bleah

Joyeuse Fête Nationale!

Around hare, more and more, I talk with Harvey …!

I bex he didn’t listen.

A guy apologized that he talked constantly due to brain damage from an accident. I said to get an earpiece & everyone would just think he’s on the phone. You don’t even need a phone service or batteries.

What’s the plural of ibex when it’s not the boring Anglicized “ibexes.” I’m thinking it’s a third declension noun but I don’t know the genitive. If it’s like codex it would be ibices but you never know with the third declension.

Haha :-)

If I’ve done this once, I’ve done it a million times.

Butt what time do you have?

My Timex Ibex watch says it’s half past Bunny Time.

Hi!

Happens to me daily – completely get this lol

The Ibex wasn’t listening, either.

…But it was a good story!

It was!

My dear Ibex friend, you’ll listen through to the end, won’t you? (‘Cause if you don’t, well, yours would make a fine trophy head for my hunter-friend’s den. Cold-hearted hint. Hey, I was recently at Eek! and left some cold-hearted comment there, too. It’s, like, contagious, you know? Thanks for listening.)

If the ibex doesn’t listen, sometimes I then turn to the narwhal instead. It can become riveted….

The story of my stories is the story of my life. Now where’d that ibex go?

No worries, I eat pickles for lunch.
