I'm sorry to do this to you...

I found a website called Cute Overload. And it's just that, tons of cute animals doing cute things. It's just one of those sites that I check out when I have nothing else to do and end up spending way to much time watching a kitten play with a grocery bag. Anyhow, I'm not sure if it was all of the cold medicine I was taking or what, but I thought it was hilarious and now it's all I've been hearing in my head for the last 4 days!! So, if I have to be miserable and sing this ridiculousness, so do all of you...

Congratulations America!

Way to go America, you just elected the man that said this (and by "you", I mean not me, I unfortunately, was allowed to vote only once) :

“Over the last 15 months, we’ve traveled to every corner of the United States. I’ve now been in 57 states? I think one left to go.”

So, what I want to know is, have we counted the votes in these extra 7 or 8 states? Maybe these were the votes that McCain needed to squeak out a victory. Hmmmm.....

I guess it's a good thing that I've been working late and on Saturday, I'll need that extra cash when "He Who Shall Not Be Named" (that's what I'm calling our new President-elect. He's a jackass and I refuse to speak his name, just so you know...) is in office and taxes the crap out of me so he can give us everything for "free"!

It's going to be a long 4 years and everyday I don't drive my car off a cliff will be a good one.


On a lighter note, I'm going to try and grow out my bangs. I'll keep you posted on how that's going.

Anybody want to hear a joke?

I'm not sure why I think this joke is funny, but when I heard it a long time ago, I laughed really hard. Then someone emailed it to my mom a couple of weeks ago and I still thought it was funny. Here goes:

A duck walks into a store , hops up on the counter and ask the clerk " hey, you got any grapes?

The clerk say's No- I don't have any grapes, and we don't do business with ducks . Now scram.

The next day the duck goes back into the same store, hops up on the counter and ask "got any grapes?

The clerk say's I told you yesterday, we don't have grapes, and we don't serve ducks, now get out of here.

The next day, the duck goes in the store, hops up on the counter and says to the clerk " got any grapes?

The clerk says" Look Duck, I've told you for the last three days, we don't have grapes and we don't do business with ducks. Now if you come in here one more time I'm gonna nail your flat webbed feet to that counter.

The next day the duck walks into the store , hops up on the counter and say's" Have you got any nails?"

The startled clerk say's No.

The duck say's " Good, Got Any Grapes."

Where Ducks Walk on Fish...

well, not so much walk as trample on fish!! 2 Sunday's ago Ray & I went to the spillway in Linesville, PA, to feed the ginormous carp!

When we first got there I didn't see any fish. I got some really bad directions and it ended up taking us to two and a half hours to get there (it should usually only take one and a half hours). So, not seeing fish right away, I'm thinking, we drove two and a half hours for some freakin' ducks???



So, we started throwing some bread in the water for the duck and relatively quickly I got my own little following of fish fighting for my bread:



Here's the real redonkulousness...

This giant round pool looking area (I'm assuming this is the actual spillway as the water spills from the lake into it) is full of fish. Wall to wall massive, nasty, big mouthed carp!!





Here is some of the lovely fall foliage across the lake:


Some nice lady took our picture for us:


More ducks...

Seagulls...


It was an absolutely beautiful day. We took the back roads home and had a great time!!

The Great Pumpkin!

I was channeling Martha Stewart tonight and carved this fantabulous pumpkin!!






It's a white pumpkin which I've also heard called a ghost pumpkin. I don't know if I'm the only person who's never seen one of these until this year?? But, I though they were so cute and needed something different besides just a pumpkin face, so I went with stars. Charlie had to draw the stars on for me and cut I them out. I think Martha would be proud!!

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TEAM WELCH!

Happy Anniversary!! Love you both!!

I had to sneak this one in, I love this picture!!

While not a photo from the wedding itself, here's Linda at her bachelorette party...

Please look after this bear. Thank you.

Paddington Bear is 50 today!!




Under normal circumstances I wouldn't care about this, but I used to watch Paddington cartoons when I was a kid. When I saw Google this morning I couldn't help but smile when I saw him. Although, if Paddington is 50, how old am I...
