The Legend of Double Steve Bonus Monday

Since I probably won’t be able to find enough Steves to cover the next year, it’s a good time to discontinue it and tell the mighty tale of how Double Steve Bonus Monday came to be.

Once upon a time, Bronwyn Green Twimom Jen and Deelylah Mullin (who edits The Boss and the By The Numbers series) went out for lunch, and Deelylah told us a story. It was about a time one of her children had surgery. The kid was so doped up on pain meds, she had double vision, and asked Deelylah why there were two Steves on Blue’s Clues. And because trying to explain the side effects of drugs on a stoned preschooler is an effort futile in the extreme, Deelylah just said, “Because it’s Double Steve Bonus Monday.”

After she tells us this story, someone (It could have been me, but I think it was Twimom Jen) suggested that I should put different Steves on the blog every Monday. I thought it was a great idea, and would be even better if it went entirely without explanation, just for the whimsy factor.

So, that’s the story and the end of Double Steve Bonus Mondays, the only consistently tagged entries on this blog.
