Mia update

Just wanted to let everyone know that Mia is okay and back to normal for the most part. (everyone... ? hmm i think i know of 1 person that reads my blog. LOL)
Also, just to be clear, it was the handle of the nasty Walgreen's bag that was caught around her neck not the actual bag itself. I can't have my one reader thinking she could have suffocated. :)

Okay, so i'm getting SPAM on my blog?!! good grief! That's retarded!

$10,000 just slipped through my hands

Around nine o'clock last night my cat Mia lost one of her nine lives, i think she's down to 7 now.

She got a plastic Walgreen's bag caught around her neck and lost her freaking mind! It's her own fault really, for some reason she is drawn to bags whether they be plastic or paper. She loves to sit in them, on them and scratch them. But i guess this particular bag did not want to be sat on so it attacked her. I have never seen Mia run so fast in her life! This is a portly cat mind you, she's a good 18 pounds if not more. You'd think the devil himself was after her. She ran into every wall, cabinet and fixture in her way as she ran for her life, all the while Max chasing after her adding fuel to the fire. It was by far the funniest thing i've ever seen, i was unable to catch her to get the bag out from around her neck, i was trying to help her and she was running from me like i was the one who'd put her in this predicament. She finally stopped in between our hutch and mini refrigerator in the kitchen. She was so scared that the hair on her back was standing straight up! And she was growling the funniest little growl i've ever heard, and breathing very hard, i bet her heart had never beat faster. So i'm trying to reach over her head to pull the bag off all the while actually afraid she was going to try to bite me, i've never been scared of being bitten by Mia before! Sweet P, yes, Mia... never! So i went around to the back of the fridge where i was able to just pull the handle and it broke in two. But she still didn't move. Still growling and scared half to death i tried to coax her out but she wasn't having any of it. So i left her alone. About 30 minutes later i went back into the kitchen to find that she was still growling and now hissing at the other cats and me. I don't know why she was mad at me, i saved the heifer from the "bag of death". I tried to get her to come into the bed room but she wasn't having it, she hissed and ran away when i tried to pick her up. So i gave up and went to bed. This morning i was frantically trying to find her, she was M-I-A, i finally thought to look up and found her on top of the regular-sized fridge. Normally i would have made her jump down from there, but felt bad for her so i let her stay. She allowed me to pet her without growling. I imagine she jumped up there not long after i went to bed and stayed all night to avoid the ridicule and laughter of the other cats. She jumped down of course when i put food in the bowl. If only i could have caught the incident on tape i'm sure i could have won $10,000 on America's Funniest Home Videos!To prove her unhealthy obsession for bags, i have included this picture taken on a previous occasion. There was actually stuff IN this bag when she decided to make it her temporary housing, but that didn't stop her. Oh, the one that tried to kill Mia last night had a couple of items in it as well.

Would you like some "catch up" with those fries?

So i have a lot to discuss.

Big Brother is BAAAAACCCCK!! I'm so happy! BB is my all time favorite reality show. I wish it came on more than just during the summer. This season is already getting good.

**Spoiler alert, don't read if you are behind on episodes**

I HATE Jen. Ugh, I have since I saw the first live feed on Showtime's Big Brother After Dark. I didn't watch Tuesday's episode until last night because Steven had been out of town and missed 3 episodes so he was still playing catch-up.
O-M-G, Big Brother history happened!Never in the previous 7 years has a Head of Household
threatened the veto players that if they did not knock the two nominees out of the veto competition and one of the nominees came off the block she would replace that nominee with their closest housemate. I was shocked! It was the stupidest thing Jen could have done, but then again she is proving time and time again that she is ignorant. I mean she is just dumb!
I LOOOOOVE Nick, i mean who wouldn't? Although that mustache he was sportin' in the last episode was cheeeeezy! I also like Dustin but someone tell me, is that a woman's gray t-shirt that he wears like all the time? It is a v-neck cut really low and it drives me crazy for some reason. Amber cries to freaking much, i mean for real girl suck it up! Oh and i don't like Zach, i want him gone and soon!
So i can't decide if i want Joe gone or if Dick should go (that's his name i'm not being nasty) :) I think the house will vote out Joe.

Speaking of Big Brother, did you know that Dr. Will, winner of season 2 and house guest of the all-stars season is on Dr. 90210?! I saw a commercial for it the other day and had to rewind to make sure my eyes weren't playing tricks on me! That is too freaking funny! He said something like, "These woman are a 9, but they want to be a 10; that's why they come and see me". Ha ha ha, i think i remember him saying something like that on the show. I like Dr. Will he was a good player of the game.
Ok, enough BB talk.

I'm going to watch Steven play in a pool tournament this weekend. I wish they would ban smoking indoors in Alabama. That place is going to be so smokey so my allergies will be kickin' hard. I'll have to take my nose spray.

We watched "The Last Mimsy" last night. It was pretty good, cute movie for the kiddo's - probably why i liked it so much. hee hee It made me think of those movies "Witch Mountain" and "Return to Witch Mountain". I think that is what they were called. The kids have special powers or something and can just think and hear each other? I remember loving those movies. I remember my sister renting them one time when i spent the night at her house when i was little. I bet if i watched them now i would think they were really cheezy.

I was going to upload some new layouts and pictures but i can't find the cable for the camera so...... guess that won't be happening.

Favorite blog quote of the day...
Goes to the fabulous Cathy Zielske
"I like to touch nature with a long stick. Poke at it a little, until it moves. Then I run back inside."

I'm right there with ya CZ!

more than meets the eye...

Yep, you guessed it. We saw Transformers today!

I liked it! Isn't bumblebee cute? :) In the movie in the main characters car there is what i am guessing is an air freshener hanging from the rear view mirror in the shape of a bee and it says "bee-otch". Hee hee! I have soooooo got to get me one of those!
