How to Piss the Cat Off!

Go puppeh go!

I Speak Meow

When we were little kids my brother use to brag to everyone about how great he was at talking to cats. If there was a cat nearby he would have to prove to you how great he was at this apparently stupid yet very clever talent. He would call out this horrible sounding "Ru Row" and we would have to stand around and listen to him talk to cats like he was some sort of cat charmer or something. Sometimes the cats would answer, most probably to say, "Yeah I hear you ya jerk now get lost!". The rest of the time they would ignore him and we would say to him "Yeah whatever now shut up and lets go!".

I'm not sure why someone would be so proud of talking to cats.

I mean what an idiot right?

I swear it wasn't me in the video clip. Not in the slightest.

All Is Well Here & Dean Continues His Path

Looks like we escaped the wrath of Dean which is good for us but not so good for those south of us in the area of Chetumal ("Cheetomall" as news reporters like to call it). Here is where it's at right now:
I haven't put my satellite back up or checked the internet yet but I'm sure it's bad. I guess there is no way to really tell unless you watch some LOCAL news stations because like Joyce says, unless Cancun got destroyed, no one cares about the rural areas.

I am quite tired but that's because I stayed up late talking with everyone about what was going on. I had a couple of annoyances with people's stupidity last night. One person asked if I was boarding up the windows. Um, it's dark, I'm not exactly capable of doing it alone while it's rainy and windy and about 3 hours away from when it should get pretty serious. The other stupid thing was an email asking if I was ok and to email ASAP. Uh. If I wasn't ok, and it was bad, how do you suppose I email ya? And thanks for emailing me in the midst of it. We've known about this for a week. How about you pick up the phone two days ago to get a report on where I am with the preps? Also, get a map and learn where the hell Cancun is in relation to the Yucatan. Guess what folks, just cuz it's Mexico, doesn't mean it's Cancun. Lordy. You would think people would learn a thing or two from Wilma. But instead, they just piss you off with their ignorance and then get uppidy when you try and tell them otherwise. Whatever.

Don't ask me how the beaches are either. Because my first priority is not to run out there and see so that I can hit them this weekend. I guess I'm just bitter from Wilma. It was pretty bad and I don't know. Lots of people are obviously oblivious to it. Either that or they are oblivious to how hurricanes work and how to prepare and that sort of thing. Just take my word for it, if I say it's pretty tame out there, don't argue with me because you are in Canada watching the weather channel showing satellites of a cat 5 hurricane that is not in our path. and you KNOW BETTER!

Ok. Sorry for the rant.

Here are all three of the kids late last night just waiting it out together peacefully. Birds of a feather....


Here's a video clip from the same perspective as yesterday to survey the damage. Bottom line, there isn't any. Someone lost the lid to their tinaco because they didnt' screw it on tight. No biggie:

And this is this morning. We have green in the hood so we are in the good!

This is down my street. There are some big puddles but nothing major. All is well.

I thought this area would be seriously flooded but it's just fine thank god:

Diesel was able to go out for number 1 and and 2 but he stuck to the sidewalk where it was dry:

I can only hope that those feeling the effects of Hurricane Dean are hanging in there. It's scary stuff. I'll be thinking of you.

Thanks for checking in.

Busted!

I guess Moco was having a bad day. I wish I had a punching bag in the apartment like she does.

She totally got busted. While I suspected it was her that does this every once in a while, I didn't know for sure. Now I know:

In the same day, I caught Diesel dressing up in drag:

It seems I've only got one normal animal. She is as innocent as can be (well minus the whole ripping up your couches thing. Thats why I have sheets over them):

Yes folks. My house is rather exciting!

Random Photos

The best part about my new cell phone besides the pink diamonds all over it is the camera function. I find it a lot handier than a camera and since I have my phone on me most of the time, it's pretty easy to snap pictures here and there.

Here are some of the ones I've taken with my phone:

One fun night before xmas 2006 started out at My Place and ended up at a club on Yaxchilan. We were up by the pool table and they had white snow painted "Feliz Navidad about 20 times all over the wall mirror. They totally spelled it wrong (duh) so I took care of that real quick. I fixed it up so that it said, "Liz Navidad". I even captured it on my phone and sent it to Becky at 4:30 am to make sure she knew I was out having some fun. It didn't end there of course. Because I'm a bad ass. I have nothing more to say on the topic but "here's to 8 balls!".

Thank god I have couches so that Moco and Diesel can look out into the world. You know I don't use them but at least they do. I have to keep them covered even though they are a nice faux soft suede because cats and furniture just don't mix. Here are the two buddies hanging out.

Being a Chihuaha has its privilages. You can go almost anywhere with mommy. Thank god too because you know, you were looking a little pale Diesel. Glad you're getting some sun.

There's nothing like dressing up your dog in a Survivor buff and laughing your ass off. Although, I have been told that what I did was mean. But then............... why are you also laughing?

What's the first thing your cat does when you wash the floor? Walks all over it. What's the first thing your cat does when you've just taken your clothes out of the dryer?

Mommie and Diesel gettin a tan together.

This one is not from my phone. But it's just as special. It's a picture of me and a horse on the beach:

That concludes this addition of show and tell. Bring your items tomorrow and we'll do it again.
