Costume Idea

I ran this idea by my friend, Joey, but he didn't like it.
What was this amazing costume, you ask?
Simple...make a "wet spot" around the crotch area of your pants, and paint a giant "shiner" on one eye..and, POOF!
(wait for it!)
You're a black eyed pee!

Inside Mickey's head

I now know how mice feel when confronted by my pack o'cats.
Heeding the silent alarm that rings when the bottom of their food bowl is sighted, all four of my cats made their way to my bedroom this morning.
It's not unusual (to be loved by anyone..ba da da da dum...) to find one or two of them in my room at any given moment. But all four? Together? Never.
And not only did they obviously make some pact, agreeing to let the others in at the same time, but they surrounded me. On my bed. Almost like they were..well..hunting me. Shudder.
I tried to reason with them. "Look", I said. "I'm going to the store. Really! And it's not as if you are all starving. It's been, what, a couple hours since you last ate?"
But they were not appeased. I could feel their hungry stares contemplating the fate of that soccer team in that mountain plane crash.
"There are four of us, and only ONE of her. Yeah, she's bigger. But there are FOUR of us to feed. It only makes sense!"
It was at this point that I reminded them that if I were no longer around, they would have to survive on icky, bad tasting mice.
They let me live...
for now......

Darn Jingle

Ugh. I just found myself singing the latest freecreditreport.com song as I played online and watched tv.
Whoever came up with those songs should be tied to a chair and forced to watch a continuous loop of their ads, and only their ads, until their brains drip out their ears.
I'm guessing it will take less than 24 hours.
And while I'm on the subject of those commercials, has anyone else noticed how horribly synched the ads are? All of them are just barely off..just enough to annoy the crapola out of me. Was this done on purpose?

Bovine Flatulence

A facebook friend is of the opinion that "FOX 'news' has done much more damage to this planet than I thought I could imagine!"
I then compared said news channel to bovine flatulence, but I don't think he understood. It's not just cow farts.
Some people believe that cow farts contribute to global warming. So, in effect, they are ruining the environment, which will bring about the end of our world as we know it.
I think that "opinion" based news organizations like Fox News are causing just as much damage to our lives, if not more. They are influencing those who, through ignorance or just plain laziness, take such information as fact, rather than finding out all sides to the story.
Those people then influence their friends and family, who influence their friends and family and on and on. In the end, any hint of truth is lost in a bizarre telephone game-like way.

Word of the day

Fbpression: Sad feeling associated with the realization that none of your face book friends "get" your latest post.

Fbpression is frequently felt by facebook worms (Those individuals who spend their entire lives on social networking sites such as facebook).

Welcome to my world

Hello, and welcome to my world.
I thought that I would start this blog so that I can jot down all of the random flotsam that flows through my brain..nothing fancy..just whatever strikes me at the moment.
I hope you enjoy, and please feel free to stop by often.
Try the veal, we're here all week!

So, here's the thought I had earlier today. As I walked into my living room, two gray heads poked through one of the mini blinds. It was Momma Cat and PK, trying to see what I was doing. And the thought that went through my mind? I heard an oh so condescending male voice, saying, "Well. There's your problem right there. You've got yourself one of them there tabby cat infestations".
