Present But Not Accounted For

Hi y'all...is it just me... or is it the full moon...or what the F is making me so tired? I'm almost rid of this dam cold, and yet I still haz a tremendouz tired. *Sigh*

Cruising icanhascheezburger just now and this made me laf out loud:
F! Blogger won't let me load it. So now I haz a mad! Hmph!!

'Nother one:
ok, this is bow-shit!!! What's going on? Blogger/You Tube, don't make me come down there!!!
Arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

Let's see if this picture works, since I am apparently not allowed to upload videos today:



Success! I love that cuuuuuute cat, by the way. (It'll grow into its ears)

Well, the Bombers have to clobber Hamilton this Sunday or it's curtains for them...out!!! Hmmmm, let's see...it's a 50-50 crapshoot, and crazy football mom is not that crazy so as to actually mention her prediction out loud. So, let's see how it goes and if it goes the way I thinkz it goez, then I'll tell ya what my predikshun was...deal? Ha! There's one born every minute, football fans.

In udder news, my friend in California informed me yesterday that her hubby & son were in attendance (they were present and accounted for) at the Chargers/Raiders game. *Sigh* Two years ago, Crazy Football Mom was at a Chargers/Raiders game. And the Chargers won...of course! And the Chargers won yesterday...of course! Way to do it, LT, Philip and all the rest of you guys. Chargers cannot be beat by Raiders...that's a Rule. NFL games are most awesome...for a 1:15 game, we arrived sometime in the morning & it was already hot. Hot, hot! We parked in the 'overflow' IKEA lot, conveniently located beside Qualcom Stadium. We proceeded to find our group and had the "tailgating" party...BBQ, Booze, the whole nine yards. Hey, it was noon somewhere!!! Anyway, we headed to the stadium, took in the game in the bright, hot sunshine. And when it was all over, we tailgated (BBQ, Booze) again, with the added Bonus of watching the parking lot fights. Raiders fan vs. Chargers fans...it gets heated and it gets ugly. Those Raiders fans are scary...hell, the little daughters of the Raiders "cheerleader wanna be" Moms are scary! But all in all it was a hoot and I'd love to do it again...next year, hopefully!

So...friggin...tired...can't hardly type. Think I have to call it a night...must lie down, rest my eyes. Yah, that's it.

G'nite football fans...

The Most Beautiful Girl In The World Video

This is a video my brother took of Granddaughter S. at our Thanksgiving dinner at our parents' place (which we deferred to Oct 17 because we were waiting for him and the 2 nephews to arrive). She is lovely and sweet, even if she does eat with her hands! I think it's so cute how he calls her his "grand-niece" rather than "great-niece"...it's all the same and it's all good. If anybody at all reads this blog, enjoy the movie!!!

In other news, the Bombers lost Big Time today. Boo hoo. Sad for the Bombers...I did not watch as I was shopping & running errands. I can't seem to shake this cold and it's left me tired and weak, so perhaps I shoulda stayed home to...watch the Bombers lose? Oh well, mebbeh they'll win their last regular season game, at home against Hamilton next Sunday. That one I'll watch...but only if TSN doesn't black it out locally. Not up to spending the $$ to go, notwithstanding (I love that word!) the fact that it's far too cold for Crazy Football Mom to attend a 3-hour game.

In high school football, Sisler AAA boys are playing Oak Park on...uh...I'll check to see if they've updated the schedule...wait one. Nope! They haven't updated it yet. It'll be either this Thursday or Friday at 7:30...Semi-finals...that I'd like to go watch. And it won't be 3 hours :-)) Of course I hope they win, they got close in '07, but were knocked out in the Final Game. That same year, our A boys (the 2nd year son A played) won the Division Championship!!! Nice if we could get another Sisler win.

Halloween came & went. The kids finally showed up, albeit late, and we got rid of all the bags of chips except for 2, and the one I ate. At one point we had a run of 25 kids in a row!!! We count them; we keep track so we have an idea of how much junk to buy next year :-) That was alot of kids all at one time. And S and her parents came over for a Halloween visit, which was nice. She dumped all of her toys; this is her latest thing. She is just an amazing kid, and I honestly don't think I'm saying that because she's my grandbaby...she's amazing...and totally intelligent. She talks a blue streak, although we cannot understand what she's saying. I now refrain from replying with Chinese food terms, because my hubby thinks it's wrong!...and I guess I really shouldn't confuse-a-kid when they're trying so hard to talk. Given how much her Mom & Granny talk, once she gets going we'll be off to the races!

Disappointing that I won't get much done beyond the laundry, but I have to get better and it's taking its sweet time. It isn't like the mess will be going anywhere soon...it will wait for me, this I have learned.

So, another work week ahead...son A has an inservice tomorrow, I am of course jealous because I do not...I must attend work tomorrow.

See you in the funny papers! And sorry, Bombers, you lose...

Hallowe'en...Where Are You???

So, it's 5:17 and I'm sitting here testing the chips (a dirty job, but somebody's gotta do it :-) and waiting for the Ghosts, Goblins & Princesses. Where are they? When will they get here?

Baby S. will be coming over later, in her "BEE" costume...so cute! We'll have a visit & take some pics...and that will be Hallowe'en over for another year. I wish it was warmer outside, we could play in the piles of leaves around the yard. Because we had summer in September, and then cold and SNOW on October 9th (which thankfully melted) the trees are all confused. Lots have not even dropped their leaves yet. And for sure it's going to snow (stay or no stay) in the next 2 weeks...it's Winnipeg! Where anything could happen. We could even have warmth again in November...I hope so. They say it's going to be an El Nino year...I hope they're right...whoever "they" are :-)

Global Warming? Come to Winnipeg and I'll show you global warming...idiots. That b*shit is just a bunch of make-work propoganda. Sure, I believe in "climate change"...but not this global warming stuff. The weather patterns are CYCLICAL people!! Giant chunks of ice melt every couple of 100,000 years or so. It's happened before and it'll happen again. Brain up! Don't just follow like lemmings...I mean, lemmings are cute, but not in human form...are you picking up what I'm laying down? Good.

It's 5:24 and still no kids. WTF?

In other news, babysat S. today, she was wonderful as usual. We played tonnes, she had a 2+ hour nap (my nap was short :-) lunch, play and then it was time for Granny to go. I cleaned the maison...a little...cut me some slack, I have a bum knee and ankle and remnants of this sinus cold. But the cold seems to be improving...touch wood.

Bombers play at noon tomorrow. Hopefully they will kick some Als' butt...Bishop, do it like you mean it. Yah, he's got an arm like Favre, but let's work on the accuracy. And our receivers are not 10 feet tall (I don't know when he'll get that).

Good Luck Bombers, we know you can do it Blue!!! We'll be watching ;+>

I hope the kids get here soon or I can't be responsible for the rest of the chips...

Love & Peace and Happy Halloween!

Random Dumbness

I am an idiot, football fans. I fell again. Again! In the dam Safeway parking lot...well, not just Safeway, there are other establishments there. But, I parked & got out of my car, walked towards the front of the car to go left and all of a sudden I'm going down! I checked after I got up (quickly, *blush*, hoping nobody saw, right?) and yep, my foot got caught in a 'divet' (a circular indent for a water meter) in the concrete. This was cleverly disguised by the leaves it was filled with. Grrrrrrrr!!! I haz a mad!!! So my frikkin' right knee (the one I hurt in August) is bruised AND bloody, and I also hurt my left ankle...it must have gone wonky when I was going down. Sob! And... nobody saw, or if anybody did, they left...parking lots are so...transient. So it isn't like I can sue whoever owns the dam parking lot for "dangerous divets in the concrete". And Then...I get home and notice that I have completely wrecked my brand-new ankle boots!!! The front of the right one is pretty much torn/scraped off, so I have to go find another pair. I wore them twice. I haz a double mad!!!

Have iced the knee, now icing the ankle. Man...if it weren't for bad luck, I'd have no luck at all.

So whatever...I can't let it ruin my day/weekend...no, this nasty sinus cold is doing a swell job of that. When can I lie down?

Happy Halloween everyone! I forgot to say that this morning.

I present...LOL Cat...now in Fun Size:

Speaking of cats, I saw the teeniest, leetle, charcoal grey (with white tummeh) kitteh just sitting on the boulevard, dangerously close to the road, while driving in to work today. She (he?) pulled at my heartstrings, but I had to keep driving. It looked like it was wearing a collar...what kind of crazy cat owner lets a leetle, teeny kitteh such as that out all by itself?? A bad one, I say. Oooooh, that makes me so angry!!

Irresponsible pet owners of the World...I hope the Bluebird of Happiness craps all over you...and your stuff!

Here's what my naybor's cat had to say about the whole Halloween thing (and may I add that I am insulted, since I am the naybor this cat is dissing!!!):


And what exactly is wrong with handing out apples and toothbrushes??? Do we seriously want all the chillen gettin' cavities?? Anyway, that was last year and I wrote this morning about what I'm handing out this year. I can't wait for the cute little Princesses, Goblins and etc. I'm pretty sure there will be alot of Snow White's this year, as she's the "hot thing" right now. Yah...Snow White is hot...that sounds just a wee bit perveted, n'est ce pas? Whatevas.

So, here's granddaughter S. in her Bumble Bee costume...the Cutest Baby & Toddler Ever!!!!!


S will be BUZZing around tomorrow lookin' for candy...akshully, her parents are just taking her to a select, few places t show her off & that will be her Halloween. She did have the daycare party, so sweet!!! must find out how that went.

So, Bombers, good luck for Sunday, you beat 'em once you kan do it again (providing Calvillo is still out ;-)

Also - do not forget to turn your clocks one hour back this Sunday morning!!!

I'm turning my clock back to my twenties!!

On that note, au revoir ladies & germans, we'll see what tomorrow brings.

OMG It's Almost Hallowe'en!

Where did October go? It was October 1 and I was getting ready for Vegas and...it's October 30 and I'm getting ready for Halloween! As much as I get ready for Halloween...with this crappy cold all week, I soitenly do not feel like hauling up the "Halloween" box and decorating...or whatever. Although the "severed leg" is tempting (from my son's halloween partay a few years ago). It's delightful to watch the reactions to the severed leg when we have it sticking out of the mailbox. Ha! So many lafs...so many little kids scared sh*tless. It's all good...

No Neilson or Hershey bars this year. We're handing out leetle bags of Chips, Gum and some surprise *treats*...leetle boxes of Junior Mints, Dots, and other cool candy. I do not eat candy. I do eat chips however, so I of course bought enough for them and for *moi*. Hey, you gotta do your part to not waste the halloween candy...or chips...

I babysit granddaughter S tomorrow...I haven't done that for a few Saturdays, so it'll be great! We'll have tonnes of fun, naps and lunch...and maybe squeeze in another nap. Then I'll come home, attempt to clean the house & then it'll be time to hand out the chips and candy. Do I sound obsessed? Normally, I'm not, it's just that the month went so fast and it all kinda snuck up on me.

S actually has two costumes this year! (Last year she was a pumpkin). I will post a pic of her in costume on another edition of this-here blog.

Almost time to get ready for work...ah, Blessed Friday, you're finally here.

And the Bombers play Sunday. Altho I did want to get to a movie with dotter M. So much to do...so little time.

TGIF, football fans and see you in the funny papers!

It's National Cat Day!!!

And I didn't even know...until I read about it on the Innerwebs, so it must be true. Hurray for cats 'round the world and beyond!!! ...beyond? Well, you know what I meanz, football fanz. Here is National Cat Day's winner:

Sooo...feeling very catty today, ha ha, no pun intended. Really.

I have some homework to do, for work, and I asked my kitteh to prepare the computeh for meh and here is the result:

Guess I won't be getting it done anytime soon. Plus, I'm still somewhat sick. No, it's not H1N1, thank God. But it's a nasty cold that has taken up residence in my sinuses, thwarting all my attempts to flush it out...well with the exception of literally flushing with saline solution, a prospect that doesn't appeal much...at all.

So...Hug your Cat(s) today and Happy National Cat Day!!! Had I known, I would have baked a cake, I swear. My cats will just have to settle for leetle kitteh hugs.

Sigh...must lie down...head hurts...maybe you'll hear from me again on Caturday, if me head stops aching.

Oh yes, and will you please spay or neuter your cat??? (and dog, too) At the risk of sounding like Bob Barker (who?), be a responsible pet owner. Not a dumbass who thinks it's cute to watch animals mate. Get a life... I call those people Losers.

Love & Peace,
CFM

Redonkulous!

So, I'm sick today. I was fine til Saturday evening...within 1/2 hour, my throat closed up (well, ok, it dint really close up) it got all hurt-y and stuff, and my head & eyes ached...and then Sunday, yay, I woke up with a redonkulous cold! Made a birfday cake for my seester, did some laundry, but rested in between. Sent cake & gifts off with the boys to the birfday cellabrashuns in the evening, as I was def not up to it. Today, rested, that's about it. Just when you fink you're getting better, the nose fills, the eyes well up, ya sneeze 10 times (or so) and the froat is now redonkulously sore, sorer than it was before. Methinks this fing is morphing...into something EviL.

Anyway, speaking of redonkulous, will you please look at the redonkulous ears on this ass, er, I mean this donkey:

He's actually so durn cute, I'd have him for a pet in a heartbeat!

Saw this poor kitteh on the street the other day:


Will you please check out his TAIL? OMG now that's different...I like it!

Jeez...I'm not well, mus' lie down...see you in teh funnie papers!!!
