Watch A Squirrel Day!

Yes it really is....so go take a moment to watch a small rodent gather nuts and run about all crazy like. It won't hurt you and it'll get you outside so it's all good!






I have a new addiction, its my BFF's fault...but she loves me so its ok. Sudoku. I originally vowed that since this game was an enigma to me, I wouldn't try it....and then I learned how to play. Its way easier than I was led to believe, and its all puzzle-y like which I love! This is not my first game addiction...it used to be crossword puzzles, that was brought on by Boobah, he's fabulous and semi-collects them to do on snow days and the train and suchness. He inspired me, but now its Sudoku. And there are websites and you can check to see if you are correct and OHHHH THE ADDICTION!


You know what is starting to bug me (if you live in the DC area and listen to real radio not satellite you get this)...all the freaking jewelry store commercials and the idiot way they potray women in them. Originally it was the lady who almost cooked a ring because her boytoy put the ring in a microwave! Apparently the writers think that people just turn on microwaves without first observing if there is something in them...or maybe womens just get bored and like the humming noise...DUH! who randomly turns on microwaves without looking in them. Really when you opened the little door you don't look first....you just stick your food in and hit start?? Or how about the lady who CANNOT BELIEVE her husband knows where to buy jewelry....yea he asked his dad for advice. Yo lady! If you are with a guy who still can't figure out where to shop on his own for jewelry, toss him back and find a new one! And my absolute current favorite stupid commercial...the lady who LAUGHS at the fact that she has a favorite jewelry store...We will continue HAHAHAHAHA to shop here....Seriously...what's funny...I don't get it....


URRRFFFF!!!! Just put something on the radio for all the stores...I don't know something like "Hey guys...did you f*ck up again? Anniversary or Birthday soon...no creative thought process to figure out a unique gift? BUY JEWELRY...because sparkly things always make women smile...." Simple easy to the point!!

Happy Brick Day

Yes kiddies....its Brick Day.

Its also Poetry, Grouch, Sewing Lovers and White Cane Safety Days and if you ask my BFF and myself, we both liked White Cane Safety Day just as much.

Brick Day...what it is you ask? Apparently some dude somewhere tried to sell brick for houses in the greater Southwest of the country and no one was having it. They all wanted Adobe cause its real purdy like. So he sold his business and did what any other defeated American would do...took 2 or so bricks, found a dive bar and started drinking. So lets celebrate! Rules say to call in sick to work, get a brick or 2 and go sit in a bar and get piss drunked! Yea, then there's reality...but you have to agree its a funny idea!

Oh I experienced a 5 year old's birthday party at Chuck E. Cheese's this weekend. That was entertainment on a new level. Giant tubes hanging from the ceiling, pens (yea pens like what you stick cattle in) sectioned off for some other random rides. And all the flashing light, sound making, jiggling up and down and sideways rides you can get your kid on in under 2 minutes. Then the giant ratman comes out from gawd only knows where to shove nasty over sugared icing covered cake down your kids throat while he riles them up some more. This is after the greased out nasty heartburn inducing pizza is thrown at them. Don't forget to wash it all down with high fructose corn syrup juice or straight up soda. Really...have parents become so f*ckin' spoiled they can't even take 2 hrs to plan a party for their own kids!

What ever happened to nice fun at home parties with homemade cakes and throwing some hamburgers and hotdogs on the grill while the kids from school or daycare come over to just run around and play games in the backyard? Where moms could sit on the deck and gossip about inlaws and bad sitcoms while the the lil ones run around and dads could wander about the backyard with beers and chat about golf and inlaws. Do we really need to contain our childrens like this? Do parents really not want to put any effort or thought into the parties their kids have?

Grrr....

Backlog of crazy people

I thought it would be appropriate (and time consuming) to post a list of the most recent crazy people and events I have encountered. Enjoy!

Baby Huey - The 7ft tall, 300lb man with not so many teeth, a broke down hat, not so matching shoes, old t'shirt and sweatpants who will walk past people on the sidewalk paying on attention to them whatsoever. He then looks up at me, smiles, waves and screams...HELLO!!!...looks back down and continues to walk and mumble to himself

The Screaming Trashman-A hispanic gentleman, who when first looked upon just seemed kind of dirty and holding a Panera soft drink cup. When I got closer to him...he started to scream nonsense and garbledness into the nearest trashcan. I can do an impression if you'd like...ALLLLLERRRRGGGGRRRR BARBARBARBARBRAB BAAAAAHHHHHHH....

Hospital Gown Guy - The nice man wandering down the sidewalk, jeans, hospital gown, hospital bracelets...he wandered to the nearest pay phone, I guess he needed a cab.

Dog Walker - At Caribou Coffee across the street from my office building they have a nice little terrace with tables and chairs and it is quite nenjoyable. One fine afternoon, I was enjoying the idea of a a smoothie and noticed a guy wearing a white hardhat, scruffy clothes sitting at one of the tables yelling "NO SIT THERE BE QUITE" or something to that effect. Yea...he was yelling at the end of a dog leash that was tied to his chair...no dog at the end.

...A nicely dressed man sat next to me the otherday on the train, he put his briefcase, his coat, his lunchbox and his fatass up on the seat and took up 2 1/2 seats in a row of 3. He then started to breath with quite some difficulty and had a bit of a wheeze too.

...A man at my train station feels the need to do stretches while wearing his suit and holding his brief case every morning....Another lady feels like she can wear belly shirts, probably because she has a belly...her husband always has greasy hair...ew...and then there's the drunk guy that wanders through the whole car and has to touch every seat on the way...I think he works for the government too...sigh...

OK...that's all...more later, I'll even add some pictures...

Hugs and Furries!

My First Blog

OK...welcome to my first blog. I have no idea why I'm doing this, but I felt the need to share the strange happenings in my life with the world. Maybe I need more work or maybe I just need more of a social life.

I am a typical person, I don't go out of my way to find strange people or have insanity happen to me, for some reason it just seeks me out. Ask most of my friends and family, they cannot believe it. Maybe I send out an overly approachable aura or maybe I look insane....whatever it is the crazy folk like me.

A bit of background, parents still married, 1 younger sister, great middle/upper class upbringing, college, husband, soon to have house, great job...nothing out of the ordinary.

So this place will just be my outlet to keep track of people or happenings that really occur. I do have a camera phone so if I get proof of the insanity, I'll be sure to post them...I might just post a few events that have happened just so you people can have a mid-week giggle.

Kisses & Puppies
