Mutterings…..

Hey, Hotmail, way to get with the twenty-first frickin’ century. Love the fact that FINALLY, finally, after all these years, you’ve taken away the damned frames when you click on a link in an email. And also, you seem to have done away with the blasted “Your window has been idle for more than ten minutes and the link cannot be clicked on you stupid stupid peon, I have more money in my left pocket than you and 800 of your closest friends earn in a year and still I trap you in this little maniacal webgame of mine MOOOHAHAHAHAH” or something to the same effect, you know what I mean.

Three cheers & crossed fingers for Twyla to win it on Survivor. She’s crusty, she’s cranky, she could totally kick my ass, but she wouldn’t have to because I’d be working & helping out. She doesn’t wear a bikini & she’s from Missouri.

Delight that hubby’s home from a four-day hunting junket. I love getting the time to myself and love how much I ache & miss him at the same time. It’s nice knowing I married the right one. :)

Must Not Forget To Program DVR For Alias & The Shield. Need. Fix. Soon. 24? Kiefer? When You Comin’ Back? Miss You. Hurry.

Bitchslap to Barbara Walter for picking PARIS HILTON as one of the Ten Most Fascinating People. COME ON. Just once, ONCE, I would like to see a really smart, but societally-deemed “unattractive” woman who is making a bleeping difference in this world get lauded and accoladed by the pop culture machine. Oprah without makeup DOES NOT COUNT. Instead, we get a vapid air head who wants to trademark “her” saying: “That’s HOT”. Paris, here’s a new version of HOTmail. Enjoy, you skank. I hear there’s a video of you out on this crazy thing called “the internet”. You should put some clothes on and do something worthwhile with your time.

Hrmph. Enough slapping and praising for one evening.

Screw You Guys, I’m Eating ALL the Tuna and Saving the Whales.

It’s funny when you find yourself in, well, the funnies. James & I have long established that, for the most part, I am Bucky Katt, and he is Satchel Pootch. Last year for Xmas, I got us mugs with funny strips on them relating to each of us……. Satchel is distraught because they don’t make crullers anymore (James’ favorite)…….mine, Bucky ends up breaking the wishbone & falling through the door – SWEET CRACKER SANDWICH, I got my wish, I’m out.

Anyway. I’m Bucky.



Not the most flattering character, but hang on, I’m also Eric Cartman. Kinda. Like when he gets mad at others and yells, that’s when we sound the most alike. Especially with the “Screw you guys, I’m goin’ hoooome.”



…and we’re both “big boned”, dammit.

The saving grace of it all, the cartoon element that makes me somewhat redeemable and offsets all my selfishness is probably one of the most altruistic cartoon characters out there. She’s bright, she’s tender-hearted, and most of all, she has a rigid iron core backbone when it comes to discerning right from wrong. Neither of us can accept injustices and rail against the world when something’s not fair. Yes, I’m talking about Lisa Simpson:

Fortunately, I’m not jaundice yellow, but I do like her hair. And I know, FOR SURE, Lisa Simpson would be a knitter, if given some ecologically sound wool & handmade free trade wooden knitting needles. But she would make everything for charity, probably. And here comes Bucky Katt rearing his scrawny selfish head and reminding me, once again, that I’m more Bucky and less Lisa……
