Witch Kitty

This is Butterball. He’s dead. I’m sick. No, not so sick that I dressed up a dead cat. He was alive when I dressed him up. This pictures is several years old. Mother Nature killed him. Or Father Time. Or Sister Fate. That whole family’s a bunch of homicidal maniacs. My whole family’s a bunch of sickos, too. We’ve got the flu or the croup or the plague, I dunno. Everyone is coughing and sneezing and has sore throats and laryngitis. They’ve all been home all week, hacking and moaning and expecting me to drag my equally sick butt outta bed to take care of them - LOL I haven’t had a chance to do much else, so if I haven’t visited you or commented or mailed you something, now you know why. Husband said (well wheezed and motioned) that he had to go in to work today. Reports were due, meetings were set, deadlines had to be met. So together, we dragged our sorry selves out of bed at the monstrous hour of 3 AM. It is raining. There is a fierce wind blowing. I am tired. I haven’t ...

King Faced

This is just almost creepy - LOL Burger King "King" Mask For lots more Halloween stuff, visit the Great Squidumpkin - - - A couple was invited to a swanky masked Halloween Party. She got a terrible headache and told her husband to go to the party alone. He, being a devoted husband, protested, but she argued and said she was going to take some aspirin and go to bed, and there was no need of his good time being spoiled by not going. So he took his costume and away he went. The wife, after sleeping soundly for one hour, awakened without pain, and as it was still early, she decided to go to the party. In as much as her husband did not know what her costume was, she thought she would have some fun by watching her husband to see how he acted when she was not with him. She joined the party and soon spotted her husband cavorting around on the dance floor, dancing with every nice chick he could, and copping a little feel here and a little kiss there. His wife moved on up to him and be...

Another one bites the dust

The boy’s vehicle is dead. The mechanic examined its sorry CARcass (sorry, bad pun) and the timing belt snapped. This caused the head to crack (which is pretty much what happened to the boy and his mother when we heard the news). To repair it would cost $2,000. So now we are at less than zero. The boy got Monday off, to grieve LOL Yesterday, we all got up at 3 AM to: Take the boy to McDonald’s for a very early morning shift. Drive across the state line to deliver Husband to his office. Drive BACK across the state line to come home. Drag the girl from slumber. Drag the semi-slumbering girl to school. Return home and start searching want ads and car reviews for something cheap and reliable, which I am quickly learning, is an oxymoron. Driving Husband’s car back in the pre-dawn hours, I maintained a steady 10 and 2 grip on the steering wheel, as the weather was drizzly and the semi-trucks were like freight trains on asphalt. Something happened to Husband’s radio. I don’t know what. Maybe...

And then there were none

With apologies to Agatha Christie and prostitutes For those of you with short-term memory loss, or new readers, here’s the tragic tale to this point. Things are...let's see, how can I put this? If my life sucked any more, I’d be a black hole. LOL There seems to be some unwritten law of the universe, that Middle Son and I can not BOTH have working vehicles. At the moment, NEITHER of us does. He buys a car, mine goes in the shop. My car is running, something breaks on his. It's been this way since he bought his car. Then he got in a wreck about three weeks ago. His car was at the shop, but it was his girlfriend's birthday, so I let him drive my car to see her. He returned home around 10:30 PM, and called out... "I hate to tell you this..." Seems that upon picking up girlfriend to go out for a bite to eat, the car (my car) developed some problems. It would go forward, but only slowly, refusing to shift to a higher gear. I have no money to repair the transmission, a...

Friday the 13th

Here it is, Friday the 13th. Oh joy. I ain’t worried, every day is like Friday the 13th to me! LOL! Are you superstitious? - - - I added some amazing pictures of carved pumpkins, (check out the Bates Motel!) a picture of our pumpkin patch, and the hysterical, “Life and Death of a Pumpkin” YouTube, to Pumpkins! . Please come visit - get me into the Top 100! LOL Happy Friday the 13th ! - - - A Halloween Safety Public Service Announcement As we all prepare for the upcoming Halloween season, please take a few minutes to read some simple rules to help keep everyone safe. 1. - Don't assume the telephone calls are coming from another house. 2. - When it appears that you have killed the monster, NEVER check to see if it's really dead. 3. - Never read a book of demon summoning aloud, even as a joke. 4. - Don't go into the basement to check the power when the lights go out! 5. - If your children speak to you in Latin or any other language which they should not know, shoot them immed...

Blame Kubrick

Are We Then Yet? Time’s a funny thing, isn’t it? (I hope so, since this is s’posed to be humorous.) Day-um! I been busier than a Viagra salesman at a whorehouse. Ain’t NEVER enough time. First off, it’s an even year. I’m an odd kind of a girl. Gimme the odd years...no gawd damned elections for one thing. Throw all the politician in a box. Cage matches should decide who runs the government. Let ‘em fight dirty, hell, they do anyway. Wouldn’t it be refreshing to have one of ‘em do a commercial that said, “Hi! I’m Joe Sleazy. I’m running for State Auditor. I know you don’t know what that is, hell I don’t either, but my advisor says it’s a stepping stone to bigger things. It doesn’t matter anyway; I’ll have a bunch of minimum wage flunkies doing all the real work. I’ll be out raising money for my run for the Senate. Paid for by Sleazy campaign contributions I accepted in return for favors when I’m elected. See you in 2009!” Wait a minute, back that thought up. (Cue the sound effect of goin...

RIP Buck

By DOUG TUCKER AP Sports Writer KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) -- Buck O'Neil, the goodwill ambassador for the Negro Leagues who fell one vote shy of the Hall of Fame, died Friday night. He was 94. Bob Kendrick, marketing director for the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum, said O'Neil died at a Kansas City hospital. A star in the Negro Leagues who barnstormed with Satchel Paige, O'Neil later became the first black coach in the majors. Baseball was his life -- in July, he batted in a minor league All-Star game. O'Neil had appeared strong until early August, when he was hospitalized for what was described as "fatigue." He was released a few days later, but readmitted on Sept. 17. Friends said that he had lost his voice along with his strength. No cause of death was immediately given. Always projecting warmth, wit and a sunny optimism that sometimes seemed surprising for a man who lived in a climate of racial injustice for so long, O'Neil remained remarkably vigorous well...

Are you Lost too?

I’m...dazed. For a period of time, I was obsessed with Lost. Read message boards, pieced together clues and analyzed theories. Now, there's the mini-season . This season opener was the first of six new weekly episodes that will air before "Lost" takes a hiatus until February, when it will continue without a break through May. I thought I was on the wrong channel when the show opened - LOL! A book club? Then we got all the flashbacks that revealed...what? That Jack is stubborn? Wow! What a shocker! (not!) Daughter started talking about making her Halloween costume, and I found my interest in fabric discussion more enthralling than creepy HenBen (although he is deliciously evil - LOL) Did anyone else get a KateRape vibe? Is Juliet a subversive? Subversive to the subversives? Are the Others abandoned Dharmaites or renegades? So what does it all mean? Do I even care any more? I dunno. I just wish I could fix my damned WordPress blog template to take this spider web backgroun...
