~~~Would U Believe Me or my Dog?~~~

So...after work Friday....I zipped on over to PetCo. to buy my babies some more of their fave treats.....'snawsomes'.....(cause, well, I'm an snawsome pet parent like that)
..... I also thought I should pick up a 'back-up' rubber ball for KorKor. This ball, her favorite, is like no other.....it is the only one she doesnt destroy. In fact, she carries it around like her baby...even takes it outside when it is potty time. Of course, if she loses track of it, & forgets to bring it back in, I find myself outside (often with a flashlight), searching for it so the world will be safe again.

anywho....I found another ball in the toy isle, grabbed couple cans of snausomes, looked at the halloween costumes for the pups......& on my way to the registers....passed these toys.

I stopped.....thought to myself 'did I just see what I think I saw?', turned around & took a closer peek. YUP.....it appears PetCo is getting into the business of discreetly selling sextoys disguised as 'chew-toys'!!!

I ask you....dear readers.....if one of my babies came running into the room with either of those 'toys' pictured above; would U believe me as I explained 'they REALLY are dog toys!'

Yeah....Me Neither...........

~~~wArNiNg!!...CuTeNeSs aLeRt~~~

Found over HERE......the RT group I belong to.....(actually, its where I scream for help re: ZoesterCoaster Buglet's 'behavioral' issues!)

~~~BaNaNa PoRn~~~

~PLEEZE Shut the Universe OFF~

OR....ask it to LEAVE ME ALONE for a day or two!!!

Yeah...my daily OM message...SLAPPIN ME UPSIDE MY HEAD!

Flexibility is the capacity to bend without breaking, a continual willingness to change or be changed in order to accommodate new circumstances.

People with flexible minds are open to shifting their course when necessary or useful; they are not overly attached to things going the way they had planned. They are able to take advantage of opportunities.

Flexibility allows for unplanned situations, & so the world continues to surprise & delight. Create flexibility in your body by stretching physically, & create limberness in your mind by stretching mentally. Every day opportunities arise to exercise flexibility.

Stretch your mind by imagining several different possibilities for how the next year will unfold. The mind will become more supple and open, and when changes come your way, you will be able to accommodate and flow with the new reality.

:::UM.....yeah.....so is the universe just trying to tell me to suck it up...get on with it.....is that my lesson?!?! Well....FU universe ....Im really getting tired of this lesson! :::

U Tell Me......Is the ZoesterBuglet sending me a message?......On that WHOLE stadium blanket....she chose to RIP the heart out of the Victoria Secret Dog "Pink"....

& before anyone suggests it?....I already ordered last season of the dog whisperer!...... We are going to watch all season together.

~~~Jaw-Dropping Performance~~~

Took Stu-Beans to Cirque de Soleil Delirium Tuesday Nite for his b-day celebration. We had front row seats.... & the price was well worth it! Of course, like any Cirque de Soleil show......it bordered on an acid trip....dream sequence with really (did I mention really) HOT, 1/2 nekkid performers who did things with their bodies that just seem physically impossible!

They were only in town for a two-night performance. What boggles my mind is the statistics of this show...... for 2 nights?

• A 130 foot two-sided stage bisects the arena, submerging the audience in the huge set.
• 540 feet of projections dominate the scene - the equivalent in width of almost four IMAX screens
• The two-sided stage is 130 feet long by 20 feet wide with musical and acrobatic action occupying the entire scene at all times.
• requires enough equipment as two mega rock concerts. It is hauled across North America, set up and dismantled within just a few hours in every new city.
• Above the stage, 2 special rail bridges designed especially for DELIRIUM support 130 000 pounds of equipment.
• 20 18-wheel trailers transport the technical equipment from arena to arena.In all, 14 tour buses transport the artists and the crew.
• There are 145 people on the tour, including 45 artists, 75 technicians and 25 management and artistic support personnel.

& of course......here are some pictures:

~~New Campbells Chix Soup Song~~

OK....SO.....I'm laying in bed this morning....all snuggled under the covers with the Zoester & her sisters. The TV was on ( to help me wake-up....) & the Campbells Chicken Soup commercial came on.

HAS ANYONE REALLY LISTENED TO THE WORDS ?!?!? OM-F'IN GODDESS!
Do the lyrics I noted below sound like someone in the lyrics department is a wee bit twisted?? Reminds me of when Teacher Barbie said a bunch of swear words a couple of xmas's ago......

Heres the line that caused me to sit up and notice......

"when wieners get boring..... a good slurp is good medicine" mmm mmm Campbells Chicken Soup.... mmmm mmmm mmmmm."

:::crickets chirping:::

~~~FYI~~~

I've moved all posts related to my PhD journey to their own page =) I also created a little shortcut button ---> to the right. I guess I got sick of the proposal taking FOREVER to load ....besides.....it was taking up space where my new carwash is show-cased....

~~~TMI TUESDAY~~~

1. Do you leave a tip at a restaurant? YES...if the service warrants it.
If so, how much? Do you double the tax? I calculate before the tax....15% +
2. What celebrity did you have a crush on growing up? Dont remember
3. Do you excuse yourself to “fart” or let it rip and blame the guy next to you? Girls don't Fart....we fluff.....& if I ever do... If I can let it rip...I usually do...for comedic sake.
4. When entering or exiting a store, do you hold the door open for the person behind you, if they're relatively close… if they're more than 10 steps away do you pause and hold the door open? Yes, I do open doors for people...especially mothers wrestling with their strollers....& older folks. I do wait for people 10 steps away as well.
5. Ever had mono? Yes... & menengitis....not fun...either time.
**Bonus (as in optional): Ever paid for sex? NO!

~~~New Favorite Car Wash~~~

Everyone knows it is really hard to find a carwash that REALLY does what they advertise. Sometimes you find areas inside that weren't vacuumed as well as could be.....or there are little streaks on the windows.....or smears on the dashboard where the armour all didnt get fully absorbed.

Well, Im here to tell you that No matter how many times I take my car back.....for spots on the exterior.....smears on the dash....debris that just wasnt vacuumed.....or streaks on the windows....

Cycles Of Support
Sagittarius Daily Horoscope

Your love for the people you care about can prompt you to seek out ways of improving their quality of life today. You may feel supportive & compassionate as you reach out. While considering the many ways one gives aid to those who can benefit from guidance, financial support, or assistance, one may be struck by the fact that the abundance enjoyed now can fade away in an instant. This can be a wonderful time to express gratitude for the blessings received by doing all one can to ensure that others will eventually enjoy the same level of success or personal satisfaction. The generous & selfless support offered to others in times of need ensures that aid will always come into our lives when needed the most. Since like attracts like, people often find themselves receiving the same blessings & kindnesses that they have, in the past or in the present, shown others. Though gifts of assistance should always be motivated by heartfelt devotion to loving compassion, benefits from the knowledge that the help given people in need is related to the help one receives when in need. Knowing that there is always the possibility that the next hour or week will bring strife, one can better understand the plight of others. Willingness to aid others today will attract support.

~~~WOW...thats all Im saying..but this is sooooo dead on!.....I LUV when this shit happens~~~

Jeff quickly pointed out that Mark Walhberg was in a boy band in his younger days. This ALMOST ruined it for me.....until I had my buddy Jeeves do an image search for Mark.

well......I rest my case....if these pictures are a representation of someone in a boy band....well then EVERYONE should sign up! It will guarantee genuine hunkatudeness in their adult life.

I won't....
theres tooooooo much detail....

Lets just go with: really emotionally immature person who TOTALLY doesnt get the fact that its been...oh....almost a year....that I've been asking them to leave.... & now...that its down to the "Oh-my-fuckin-goddesss-U-have-got-to-get-out-of-MY-house!.....he decides that he is unable to pay me rent, his share of the utilities....and eat the groceries that I pay for because he has to use that money towards a place to move to.

RICH...ISNT IT!

UM....why weren't you saving some funds all this time that U knew U were to be looking for a place to move to?

FUCK U ....for stompin around the house, swearing at me because you are angry about the lack of initiative & organizational personal attributes U lack! U parasitic sycophant!

& without getting into details here......as I do not have the permission of the 'other 3rd party involved'.....MR. Unhappy Pants?....what makes U think that I should 'wait til you are out of my house' to begin to live my life again?........How dare U stand there after all the nasty-ass shit you have said to me...called me...accused me of...& tell me to "WAIT"....BTW?....just what was it that I did anyway?

Do U not get it!?!? ....IF I didnt have a Dissertation to write....and the responsibility of my babies.......(lets not even mention that its MY house...MY name on the mortgage) ........I wouldnt even be around the house as much as I am now......because I can not stand your angry ass... & all the negativity it radiates! Hell....your dog didnt even want to sleep with you last nite! .....She came in my room and laid down when you called her.........DOESNT THAT TELL U SOMETHING RE; YOUR BLACK AURA! A dog is THE best judge of character.......mmmmm?.....could THAT be why KorKor's mohawk goes into highgear & she growls to protect her momma when U enter my room?!?!?!

um...yeah....Im gonna have to go with ....."johnny...tell her what she won!"

oh...btw...I called that person who U claim was upset by me putting them in a so-called position to lie for me?!?!......yeah....I was prepared to get that straightened out......and apologize if that was how they felt. MMM.....surprise!......they never said the shit you spewed at me......IN FACT!.....they stated they were a little concerned re: your delusional thinking on ALL OF THIS !!

I was greatly mistaken! ........Great film....I won't ruin the ending.....but I was gasping for air in the final scene.....it was pricelessly funny... & unexpected ....but not really when you look back over the film. HILARIOUS!

Okay....back to getting ch's 2 & 3 submitted.

'Mile' stones, Mountain Views & the Bikini Quandry

Today.....I decided to take an early morning escape from the drudgery of 'U know what"....the 'D'.
Stubeans (single, successful, quirky-sense of humor) friend of mine =) (yeah....he's gonna hate me advertising his need for a women)....has invested in another home to flip. Its at the base of South Mountain.......cute 3 bedroom 2.5 bath 2 story.

On the way down to meet the inspector & realtor who listed the property.....Stu's car had the 100,000 milestone! It took him 5 yrs to achieve this in his Subaru (the one I made fun of during its need to be jumped ...um...3 nites in a row!!!). My little jeep (that I have driven since Turkey day '92) took 12 yrs to achieve that same milestone. Being the DORKS that we are.....we celebrated this event via picty's.

After spending 2 hours waiting for the inspector to crawl into & around all the available inspectable spots in the house.....since we were at the base of South Mountain, we decided to drive up to the top. Now, I am NOT the type to get motion sickness.....but that winding road to the top of South Mountain almost did me in! Its been probably 8-10 yrs since I have done the drive ...& I was amazed at how much the valley's housing & general human occupancy has expanded. It scares me to think of how much this valley can take before we are seriously dealing with water shortage. If you golf at all, you are aware of the excessive number of 'top' courses (along with the resorts they are attached to) we sport here in the valley. I guess I will be planning a move within the next ten yrs or less to avoid dealing.

Not sure if it was altitude sickness....or the winding road that caused our conversation to turn to the quandary Stuart & I have been pondering for the last month. I'm sure you have seen the yoplait commercial where the main character is getting ready for bikini season .....& her 'polka-dot' bikini is showcased thru-out the commercial. Now.....dear readers..... please assist us in solving this STUPID question. Is it a yellow bikini with pink dots?.......or a pink bikini with yellow dots? Inquiring minds want to know!

Validation.....of why it is OK to HATE clowns!

As I sit here working on chapters 2 & 3 of my Dissertation proposal..... I have the bedroom TV on for background noise. I am viewing MSNBC's show where they profile criminals. Tonite is John Wayne Gacy.....& guess what!?!? His favorite way to 'entertain' children....(so he could be closer to young boys).....was to be POGO the clown! He has been quoted as saying " a clown can get away with murder"

SICK FUCK!.....men like him......( ah.....recent Carr pedophilic-creep-fuck) should be tortured....slowly, used for medical research....(instead of animals - innocent little sentient beings)

Okay.....back to my Postpartum writings.......(& I wonder why I sometimes have fucked up dreams!!))

OH MY!.......does this mean?

Is the Chuckster .........(DOoCeS DOG)...CoMiNg OuT..of the closet!?!?!? Either way.....LUV the tinkywinky HAT! U Go ChuCk!

~~~MAKE SURE TO HOVER OVER THE PICTURE! LOL~~~
