Rock the Kasbah!


I am back and with a new cat picture. This is Kitty. He is my in-law's cat. He is an orange Siamese cat and a cutie patootie! Our Christmas gift for him was a little red fez. We were inspired by their Christmas card which featured a picture of Kitty with a Santa hat. As you can tell by how pitiful looking he was, he was not having fun trying on his new hat but he was too cute! Now, I just have to make him a little vest to complete the outfit. Enjoy! Posted by Picasa

Laugh...It Makes You Live Longer and Happy Holidays, I am Outta Here!

I love to laugh. I didn't always do it. Everyone goes through their angsty "I am so depressed, no one understands this kind of pain" phase. Then something happened. I realized that I am alive and I have only one life to live. So, I decided to do what made me happy and be with who made me happy and to laugh a lot. I do laugh a lot. I can't help it. I laugh uncontrollably at all kinds of jokes but especially at fart jokes. Why? I have no idea, it's just me. I like people who make me laugh. Today, I saw a homeless man whose signs read "Help, Need Fuel For Private Jet!" and "My Wife Had a Better Lawyer!", I about died from laughing at the red light. I normally don't give money to the homeless but I gave him five bucks for brightening my day. So, laugh it's the best medicine to maintain a happy soul!

Happy Holidays fellow Bloggers! I am getting on a jet plane and heading out to go visit some parents. I hope that everyone has a safe holiday season. I will back soon!

Cutie Pies!


These two cute guys were my foster kittens a couple of years ago. Their names were Tiggy Tiger and Dracky Dracula. They were cute kittens and caring for them was a fun job. They were healthy normal kittens that loved to attack every string in the house including each other. I totally forgot about them until I stumbled across this photo. I hope that they are okay and that they found good homes. Damn holiday season always makes me reflect on these past years and think about the future. Posted by Picasa

I Am Feeling Better and Amy Has Got Some Pimp Juice!

I feel better today. I think part of it was because Amy took me dancing last night at the Salsa Social Dance held at our dance studio where we are taking lessons. We arrived a little late and missed the exhibition dance but it was still pretty happening. It kind of reminded me of prom where there were a lot of guys just standing on the side lines. Amy and I didn't wait for a guy to get the balls up to ask us to dance, we started dance with each other. It was fun. Finally some guys came up and we danced. The guys in the beginning were good dancers and we had fun. Then the quality of dancers went down after that, unfortunately. My sister and I both danced with a guy who looked like Napoleon Dynamite. I kept expecting him to say "Sweet Ride" and "Can you bring me my chapstick?" The other guy after that was just a bad dancer but I give him kudos for trying. The music was okay and it seemed that they were rotating the same five songs. I lot of guys loved my sister. I have to admit Amy is ten times more talkative then me when she dances. I like my dance partner with less talk and more dance. All of the guys who danced with Amy and some who didn't even dance were entranced by her. Every guy who did dance with me was trying to pump me for information about my hot sister. I take my job seriously as the older sister. The last guy didn't have my seal of approval but the next one will, I promise you. Amy was looking for a guy who was hot, my job was to figure out if he was a complete idiot or not. No guy there fit Amy or mine's approval but we had fun just dancing. Overall, I can't wait to go out again and I am seriously impressed with Amy's ability to attract men, it was like bees to honey and it was good to salsa dance my sorrows away.

Rest in Peace Big Kitty, a Good Cat But An Even Better Friend!


My cat, Big Kitty, died last night @ 3:23 am. After a long fight she finally decide that she had enough and that it was time for a long rest. I miss her. I had to fall asleep for the first time in 10 years without her. She cuddled with me and kept my legs warm. Mind you, she would bite my ankles if I squirmed too much but that was part of her gruff charm. Last night, I watched her die and even though in the end she probably wasn't all there I was glad that I was. I wish I could have put her to sleep because she was in a little pain in the end but I was selfish and I wanted every little moment I could have. She was on the edge but she hung in there due to the fact that she had a strong will but yesterday she stopped eating and then she died fairly quickly. The weather matches my mood. The temperatures dipped below freezing last night and today, I drove around with icicles on my car. I gave my father a ride and then ripped him a new asshole when he dumped his marital problems on me. I just lost a loved one and I didn't feel like putting up with anyone's problems but my own, right now. I just miss her so much and it hurts. Tomorrow my pain will hurt less and even less the day after that but it will take a long time. I need some time for that raw spot in my heart to heal.

How to scare your cats? Sing karaoke at home!

My sister had a crappy day yesterday. I was going to go out with a friend to Fry's Electronics which is an awesome store but never, ever write a check for that place (long story). She sounded so sad that I decided that my friend and I should wait so we could drag Amy to experience the splendor that is Fry's. I know, I know that it's just a store but I think it's pretty cool like a Best Buy but better. Anyways, we go check out the computers, DVD's and Playstation games, since my hubby has one. Well, my sister and I bought Karaoke Revolution and brought it home. Poor Jerry, we kind of hijacked him into singing. The hightlight of the night is when his karaoke character Shirelle sang "You make me feel like a natural woman!" It was great! Amy and I sang along too but it was more like screaming. Did I tell you I couldn't sing? Anyways, we had a great time and I am sure all that apple beer helped, too! I am glad that my Karaoke obsession has rubbed off and I am not the only one and now we can sing at home. Yeah! I can't wait to see if I can get my husband to do it too!

P.S. The cats were really scared when I started to sing. I have never seen them tear out of a room faster. I don't think it could be my singing, could it? Probably, my husband did the same thing.
