A new favorite of ours. After your two year old demands that you watch it 30 times in a row, I guarantee that the song will be stuck in your head for the rest of the day. At least it’s a short song. Image|furryscaly
Link Post
I get pitches all of the time from PR people and ad agencies. Most of the time, the pitches suck. Sometimes the only salutation is “Hi!” and there has been a time or two when someone else’s name was after “Hi”. Sometimes I get stuff that looks cool or is a something that I think… Continue reading Link Post
I Didn’t Die but Oscar Did
Yup. That’s right. Oscar the Cat has gone to live with the cats in heaven and is probably pissing all over St. Peter’s dirty clothes. [Thanks to the Twitterverse for helping me remember St. Peter.] I called last Thursday to check on Oscar since Mondays and Thursdays are surgery days and I should have known… Continue reading I Didn’t Die but Oscar Did
Relief
After my virtual “breakdown” Saturday night on here and on Twitter over Oscar, I decided to stay away from the internet as much as was possible so that I could get my thoughts [and emotions] together. Maybe breakdown is a tad bit extreme but my emotions were extremely raw and close to the surface. At… Continue reading Relief
I Miss My Cat
I know. I know! Some of you are tired of hearing about my cat. I know! He’s just a cat but dammit! He’s MY cat. I’m the one who saved him from a hurricane when we first moved to Florida when Tucker joined the Navy. Oscar was originally supposed to be named Zero [after the… Continue reading I Miss My Cat
Cara Reads Barney to Oscar
Ollie had his nine month appointment today. He’s 90th percentile for height and head circumference and 50th for weight. I know that I’m the only one who cares about that but I still felt the need to share. After the appointment, I took the kids to see Oscar at the vet’s office. The vet had… Continue reading Cara Reads Barney to Oscar
I’m Essentially a Coward
I’ve been putting off this post since about 9 o’clock this morning. That’s around the time that I called the vet to check on Oscar and around the time that Cara started “calling” Oscar with our home phone. You know it’s bad when you call to ask when you can pick up your cat and… Continue reading I’m Essentially a Coward
I Can’t Do Wordless

It’s Wednesday and I thought that I would jump back into the Wordless Wednesday foray but soon realized that I lack the ability to just post a picture with no words. I took these pictures of the kids yesterday. When Cara was a wee lass, we took HUNDREDS of pictures of her. Every day I… Continue reading I Can’t Do Wordless
Oscar the Cat Almost Died
Today has been one hell of a day. It started out alright. Tucker left for work after dumping Ollie in bed with me. Shortly after, Cara started calling, “SOMEBODY! LET ME OUT! ANYONE?! HELLO?!”. It was cute and I was awake so I let the toddler out of her room and the day officially started.… Continue reading Oscar the Cat Almost Died
Official Statement from Canadian Embassy
I had planned this to be a post about Tucker and the amazing father that he is but if you look at my Twitter stream then you are well aware of the fact that I have become extremely interested in what’s happening in Iran/Tehran. Iran has interested me since I came to know a classmate… Continue reading Official Statement from Canadian Embassy
Rickrolled by Tucker
Tucker SO asked for this. I’ve warned him that his emails were in danger of getting published here. Warned him, I’m telling you! But, today, he crossed the line. Some back story so you’ll “get” this. Like MONTHS ago, I told Tucker that oxen aren’t a breed or species of animal but that an oxen… Continue reading Rickrolled by Tucker
BlogHer/Lane Bryant Fashion Show

I’m going shopping this weekend for some clothes for BlogHer. I’ve mentioned before that Lane Bryant has hooked me and 9 other lovely ladies with gift cards and that’s what I shall be using. I’m not listing the other chicks yet cause I don’t know if they want me to. I’ll send out a big… Continue reading BlogHer/Lane Bryant Fashion Show
