The future of Brokeback Mountain

I'm really not even that surprised....and damn it makes me laugh.

Finally!!!!

I know it's hard to believe but i get distracted VERY easily. I LURVE (as esther would say) my job! I really do, but sometimes sitting at my desk is just a little too much for me. I have become determined to find good online radio. I have had suggestions from some and they have all been stellar choices, but i still have not found the one that suits all my music needs. Well folks...stop the presses I have found it. I came across Accuradio. It has a gagillion channels of all different flavors and styles. Who needs satellite radio when there is free online radio!!!!! So for all you desk workers who just can't stand the clickity click of the keyboard as your daily symphony, i recommend accuradio it's much more pleasant.

The plural of fox is not foxes!

Here are some more brilliant pictures by Kim Steinenger. She has more talent in her index finger than i will ever wish to have in my whole body!!!! Even if your not an avid wildlife person, or even if you despise those pesky garden ruiners...you are heartless if you do not find these fox farkin adorable!!!!

Need a little pick-me-up?

As some of you may know i enjoy a little TV here and there. Just a little. Soooo picture it....it's friday afternoon 2:30ish. I can't leave work for another 2 1/2 hours. I'm sufficiently antsy and can't bear to look at anything else that pertains to work for at least the next 15 minutes. How does one pass the time? I was poking around the Comedy Central site and came across Drawn Together. This is a cartoon that will make you fall on the ground and laugh your face off. I love it. It can be a little racey at times...so mom i don't recommend it for you...but otherwise it's brilliant. So what did i do for my wonderful 15 min of procrastination this afternoon? I rewatched the majority of season 2 of this hilarious series. It was painful to muffle the laughs in my office without giving away that i was doing nothing pertaining to birds OR oil spill!! Enjoy and go there often...it will bring your spirits right quick!

Seriously??!!?!?!?!

Please don't even get me started on these people. These are Fairy penguins. They are primarily found in Australia. Certain people swear by these damn sweaters, that during an oil spill, they will keep the birds warm and keep them from ingesting the oil that is on their feathers. Yes, good thought because hypothermia and oil ingestion IS an issue when it comes to oiled birds BUT something you don't want to increase any more in a bird during a spill is STRESS. I bet these poor little penguins just LOVE being dressed and undressed like a freakin cabbage patch doll. These poor honey's...i truly feel bad for them. Granted this is just my opinion but i feel very strongly about it. And ps, who the HELL has enough time on their hands to sit down and say...hmmmmm...i think i'm going to make penguin sweaters today. Anywho, here are some choice photos of some cute ass penguins in stupid ass sweaters. :)

AWSOME!!!!

Oh Martha...

The pressure is on to save this Eagle. Her name is Martha. She's a fiesty one!!

So far the story has been picked up by Seattle, DC, Chicago, Baltimore, Virginia, Washington, Houston, CBS, ABC, NBC and Forbes.

Here's hoping she pulls through and it's a success story!!

Ps thats Laura (my roomate) tube-feeding Martha. :)

Well needed!

Hands down i got the funniest e-mail from Annie and Lou today. I feel it is necessary for everyone to see and laugh as hard as i did. I seriously had tears in my eyes i was laughing so hard.

Ok picture it....Annie and Lou cuddled up on the couch together aimlessly browsing the internet thinking of what they are going to do tonite.....

and scene....

Brilliant...absolutly brilliant...go ahead send one of your own..try to make me laugh harder!

I almost forgot....

I know i promised to post pictures of Gianna's b-day party....well here i go:

Bring on the cake eating contest

This girl does not mess around....i couldn't keep up!

She's testing the anti-aging effects of frosting...and shoot...she ain't screwing around!

More cuteness

The babies are a'comin. We have a little baby owl. He's a barred owlet and he looks just like this....it doesn't get any better than that!!!

We got him when he was about 2 days old. He's got the chubbiest cheeks!!!!

Did it move?!

When i was home last i asked lisa to make sure her baby belly was a-showin. I was pleasently surprised that she in in-deed was finally showing. And by finally, i mean i demanded that lisa be showing about a week after she announced she was pregnant. I guess it doesn't really work that way. But anywho, Lisa did me proud and had plenty of shamrock shakes and fatty fat stuff to prepare for my arrival.

Lisa was the lucky winner and got to pick me up from the airport when i got into town. We went back to her house and i endulged in some well-needed mac and cheese and some well-missed DVR. I took a DVR break and was checkin my e-mail in their office while Lisa was still DVRing in the Living Room. I heard her quietly proclaim...(in her little lisa voice) "Kaaatie the baby is moving" I gingerly jumped out of my chair and dove at her belly.

I missed it but i wasn't going to miss the next one. I spent the next few minutes with my hand on my sisters lower abdomen (in any other situation, very odd family bonding). The baby was doing a whole lotta nothin. Lisa poked at it a bit, despite my thinking that wasn't something you should do to your unborn child. I manned my post for a little bit longer and i was not disappointed!!!! It moved!!! I think it might have done a little step ball change with some added flare. It was amazing and freaky deaky all at the same time. I'm not sure how i will deal with a step ball changin thing in my belly when the time comes. But i will be all about the shamrock shakes, thats for sure!!! It made me so happy and i'm so glad i got to experience that. I'm not going to be around as much as i would like for Lisa's first baby experience but she's doing a good job of keeping me in the loop. I can't wait to meet this baby. PS...i think it's a girl. I'm just gonna put that out there.

Lisa tried to share the wealth with Annie, Lou and Michele but Baby G wasn't feeling the vibe. It must have known i had limited time to see it's solo performance. Someone please explain to Michele that the baby is not in Lisa's shoulder. :)
