forgot about this...

This is scary: http://perezhilton.com/?p=11215#more-11215

Observations.

Apparently the very, very overweight, previously known as the morbidly obese, are being referred to as "super obese" according to a show on Discovery Health. Who knew? Is it like Super Friends, only a little bigger? This I do not know...

Speaking of obesity, I'm making brownies. I know, the crap I tossed out is still in the garbage can, out at the curb, waiting for the nice sanitation men to cart it off. Wondering if a walnut chocolate chunk brownie should have caramel on top... Hrm..

Happy Saturday Muggles...

A chilly, dreary Pittsburgh day.
I have an overwhelming lack of motivation.
Could someone come clean our house?
I can pay with baked goods...

Actually I can't pay with baked goods today. In a preemptive strike against future bouts with obesity I threw out all the cookies, cakes, and sweet breads that were in the house. Place is still pretty damn messy though...


In other news, the lil smokie has been located on the tree at the mothership's. Jolly old time!

Friday...


Ever wish you could work on a Saturday just to get all your work done? I kind of wish I could do that. A gal gets tired of neeeding to catch up.
The mothership located the lil smokies that had infiltrated her holiday joy. She placed all blame on my brother. Off the hook!
Any ideas for a Lame-O New year's eve?
My post label is an homage to a coworker who manages to work in some great lines while seemingly talking about work related topics...

a sad day

The world will miss the sparkling charisma of the lovely Benazir Bhutto who was senselessly murdered today in Pakistan.

Even we cynics took a moment to shake our heads at the loss of her shining personality and want to make the world a better place for her people.

Sort of makes my previously planned post about how my other half accidentally turfed our front yard (classy, eh?) a little stupid.

Night kids...

Thoughtless little gift...


That's what happens when you take a picture through a pint glass...
Anywho, this one woman at work, whom I gave a lovely gift to, gives me my gift today. It's a $4.99 pin. Looks like something I can't even re-gift. She says "Oh I just picked up a thoughtless little gift for you."
Seriously? Thoughtless? A thoughtless gift? Why not just say "Look, I don't really like you, so here's some cheap shit I got. Enjoy."
Johnny's mom bought us power tools. I will open the betting pools for lost fingers once it's warm enough to go outside and destroy things. Yay!

Weird TV moments...

I saw an ad today for the most frightening product... the "Ped Egg" It was an infomercial. I was so horrified as this Sasquatch woman shaved her feet (which looked mysteriously covered in pork chitlins) into these beautiful white feet. It was like a car accident. You just had to watch. Then the ped egg came open and she dumped all the "shavings" into the trash. It was reminiscent of when it was your turn to take the blackboard erasers out in elementary school and clap them together to clean them.. Google them. There's a web site. You might get to see the commercial too... Try not to gag.

I try to avoid the entertainment demon that is TV, but got sucked into a marathon on the Travel Channel. It was Anthony Bourdain's "No Reservations". The whole day was summed up when the Namibia Bushmen of the Kalahari offered him warthog anus (apparently a sign of welcome and respect). Delicious! And he didn't even have alcohol to wash it down...

Does anyone actually watch ice skating anymore? I think I did as a kid, so I flipped on the Stars on Ice skate gaily to Wynonna Judd or some bullshit. Held my attention for exactly 1.2 seconds. Some of those skaters have got to be in their late 40's, early 50's. Should have gotten a good investment portfolio instead of pimping out on Sunday afternoon TV.

Loaded the car up for the exercise in futility known as Christmas with the folks. I really wish the folks would wise up and realize that we're at the stage in our life where we don't really identify with their new found love of Jesus and organized religion. Don't worry about us. I loaded up on those cute little bottles from the liquor store that they keep behind the counter...

Welcome to our lunacy

I just got told that our strange little lives would "make good reality TV" somehow I don't think that's exactly true...

We recently tried to get a dog from one of these militant rescue places. They checked our references and even did a home visit. I could have gotten foster kids easier and made extra money and had them sleep in the spider infested basement... What the hell? Then we saw the dog's foster mom open mouth kiss the dog. Porno style. I swear. She says "I don't care if you eat poop... you can kiss me on my mouth" and they slurp away. She kept the dog...

Woof woof...
