Uh,..pretty much sums up any given Saturday afternoon for me.

Cheryl - what are your five favorite things in the world (not people)?
Plus, I'm miffed. The contest was my idea, but I don't get to help pick the winner? Sad. *humph*

Caption #1:
Look at you, for God's sake. You come strolling in here at this godforsaken hour, suit all wrinkled, eyes all glassy, and that breath! Don't even ... I've had about as much of your bull as I can take. You disgust me.

As best I can recollect, my captions:
1] OK, I'll behave, for now.
2] I think we're in big trouble.
3] Happy Father's Day, Looking Forward to your Visit.
See? They can all be clean! Well, until cg gets back.

Cousin Wilfred arrived with nothing more than an overnight bag and his white cap. That was in 1962. Gladys and Albert, being polite folks, didn't quite know how to ask him to leave.

Cat - you are gifted with these! I suck. :)

*back from the henna tattooing*
*got some weird design on the tops of my hands, so did my daughter*
There were some gals there doing the bride and bridesmaids that were really really good. We got ours done by the bride's aunt - not professional but she did good ;-)
Cheryl, what is this about a name contest? I'll have to
have some more alcoholput my thinking cap on.Posted by: Siouxie | February 28, 2008 at 10:52 PM
Well, obviously with no fire burning when she got home cg ran for a comforter and has roughly two nostrils exposed to air. It gets freakin' cold in Florida and if you have never experienced 32 degrees with 80% humidity, you don't get how awful it can be. I've lived in Alaska, Montana, Wyoming, and the Bering Sea, but cold in Florida sucks at an extra level.
Posted by: CJrun | February 28, 2008 at 10:53 PM
Oops. That was caption #1.
And Snork! At Diva's drill (bill?) sergeant!
Posted by: Cat R. | February 28, 2008 at 10:53 PM
LOL, Cat - I was thinking it was caption #2! And it could be REALLY funny for #3....
Posted by: DeskDiva | February 28, 2008 at 10:56 PM
Cat, the scary thing is I actually understood that.
Siouxie, did you get any "secret" tattoos??
Posted by: CTProf | February 28, 2008 at 10:57 PM
Caption #2:
So - you tuck that little thing right in here.
Really?
Yeah, and then you just...let go.
This is lame. I already do that in my diaper. Why change?
Posted by: DeskDiva | February 28, 2008 at 10:59 PM
*smacks self for thinking that way before Siouxie can do it*

You taste maaahhhvelous.

OK, bye.

Diva, you've unleashed a monster with that cheeseburger site. Here are two of our family pets...

Cat, those are hilarious!!!!
Posted by: DeskDiva | February 28, 2008 at 11:06 PM
bluuurrrkk!
*tackles and puts a funny hat on him*
Posted by: CJrun | February 28, 2008 at 11:06 PM
Prof, no secret tats here ;-) sorry LOL
Posted by: Siouxie | February 28, 2008 at 11:06 PM
Blurk, stay!!!
Siouxie, how long do those henna tats last?
Posted by: Cat R. | February 28, 2008 at 11:09 PM
Cat, I think a couple of weeks. We got some simple designs though. Nothing as intricate as the ones the bridesmaids/bride were getting.
Off to walk the doggies...back in a few if I don't freezeeeeeeeee!!
Posted by: Siouxie | February 28, 2008 at 11:11 PM
Bundle up, Siouxie. We're supposed to get more snow here in Chi Town tonight, so I feel your p-p-p-p-pain...
Posted by: Cat R. | February 28, 2008 at 11:13 PM
Take some photos, Sio!
Posted by: DeskDiva | February 28, 2008 at 11:13 PM
blurk... good to see ya. We've missed your shotgun.
I had no idea that you knew the word, much less would dare use the word, mahhhvelous.
Mahhhvelous, darlink. Glad to see you have gotten in touch with your inner woman.
Don't be a stranger.
Posted by: Meditrina | February 28, 2008 at 11:17 PM
Sio-photos of your new tattoos are in order.
And since clearly I'm
too lazyunable to think of a blog name (now after what, a year...or so?) I am asking the blog for help. Although,due to lack of interest--my prizes totally suckas everyone is very busy I may not be successful in this endeavor.Posted by: Cheryl Howard | February 28, 2008 at 11:21 PM
Wow, I clicked on this and didn't realize how young he was when he did that schtick.

Hi, Med!
Posted by: Cat R. | February 28, 2008 at 11:23 PM
Med, if I had any woman parts I could get in touch with, inner or otherwise, I'd never leave the house.
And the "maaahhhvelous" comment was a Billy Crystal reference.
I swear.
Posted by: blurk | February 28, 2008 at 11:24 PM
Oh, and CJ...next time leave the propeller off the hat. Please.
Posted by: blurk | February 28, 2008 at 11:25 PM
ROFL!!
Sorry, Cheryl. I thought we were captioning the pics on here,
LINKY ,
and you were providing the prizes.
Ooops.

Posted by: Cat R. | February 28, 2008 at 11:27 PM
Cheryl, give me your occupation and I'm pretty sure I can come up with a nickname.
Posted by: Doc Rick | February 28, 2008 at 11:29 PM
Cat, that's funny. :) LOVE your pets, btw!! They are adorable! You did a great job with those.
Posted by: DeskDiva | February 28, 2008 at 11:30 PM
I gave Cat advice about her entrances and exits but she did better on her own it would seem. *love the slinking in and out...very nice!*
Posted by: Doc Rick | February 28, 2008 at 11:30 PM
Cheryl, I misread your email name. But it gave me some blog name ideas for you.
Bendable Cheryl?
Elastigirl?
Posted by: Cat R. | February 28, 2008 at 11:30 PM
Ooh, Doc's on it. He will so have your back. I know he's got mine. :-)
Posted by: DeskDiva | February 28, 2008 at 11:31 PM
blurk, you're still alive? missed you
Posted by: Wyo Cowboy | February 28, 2008 at 11:32 PM
Cat--you think of something hysterical for a rubber ducky and a puppy--the chocolate sardine is yours.
I could only think of something rather naughty.
Posted by: Cheryl Howard | February 28, 2008 at 11:32 PM
you need to email me, buddy, I've saved you an elk video for weeks.
Posted by: Wyo Cowboy | February 28, 2008 at 11:33 PM
Oy
I'll see how they come out and maybe take some pics. Maybe. Right now I'm gobsmacked and flabbergasted.
More alcohol is needed ;-)
WAITER!!! another vodika & sprite, for favor!
Posted by: Siouxie | February 28, 2008 at 11:34 PM
What's wrong with Cheryl Howard? It's a nice name, IMO.
Posted by: Eleanor | February 28, 2008 at 11:35 PM
Chryrl...the best I could do transposing the letters is "Howdy, a Cheer". Awkward, but it's clean, and thusly avoids a room flogging. Please, someone, do better. Anyone? Bueller?
Posted by: WayneHere | February 28, 2008 at 11:36 PM
Thanks, Diva. The Coton is my mom's dog and the moose is ours.
Doc Rick, I was going to go with the Snagglepuss reference, but then I got to thinking about the whole gender identity thing, and Cat R. is a bit ambiguous to start with, but add old Snagglepuss to the mix, and I think I'd get some folks thinking I'm a guy (again). NTTATWWT. But, having been there, and done that, with "Wessonality!" (my first blog name) and being referred to as "Wes", I thought a little slinking was in order.
But thanks for the help. ;-)

hands Sioux a tequila. (El tequilo)
Posted by: Wyo Cowboy | February 28, 2008 at 11:36 PM
BendItLikeCheryl??
Posted by: Siouxie | February 28, 2008 at 11:36 PM
No problem.... and we have some left over kamikazes. A round for everyone.
Posted by: Meditrina | February 28, 2008 at 11:37 PM
That's a good one.
Posted by: DeskDiva | February 28, 2008 at 11:38 PM
And if I learned to preview, I would spell your name Cheryl. IMHO, Keep Cheryl Howard.
Posted by: WayneHere | February 28, 2008 at 11:38 PM
Oh, look out. Siouxie's trading favors for vodikas.
Posted by: Cat R. | February 28, 2008 at 11:38 PM
wyo, are you still only gettin' email through myspace?
I got one of them myspace sites my ownself. I don't know how to do the link thing though so if you want I guess you can look it up...however ya do that.
I'd love to hear from ya.
Back to your regularly scheduled blogging.
Posted by: blurk | February 28, 2008 at 11:38 PM
Cat, I remember you as Wessonality and I agree...Wes kinda sounded like a boy. (nttawwt - unless, of course, you're a girl - which you are)
Wyo, muchas gracias, amigo!
Posted by: Siouxie | February 28, 2008 at 11:39 PM
Siouxie nailed it!
Those vodikas are good for creativity, I see...
Posted by: Cat R. | February 28, 2008 at 11:39 PM
Please remember that we live in the best country on the planet. It can be difficult for me to get permission from cg for my next, crazy, idea, but here it is.
I'm moving Rosie back down to Florida. But I'm going to film this, because my buddy Mark is one of the funniest people I have ever met. I am a complete nerd, but Mark and I have been friends forever...we have actually won prizes for doing the most bone-headed thing ever. The lady at the bank says I should buy a house. I'm going to ask her to finance our trip down from North Carolina, if we make her laugh.
Posted by: CJrun | February 28, 2008 at 11:42 PM
blurk, my email's on my site. you know where/how to find that. Myspace is a jungle, and I don't go there much anymore.
Posted by: Wyo Cowboy | February 28, 2008 at 11:42 PM
Good luck, CJ! And cg - I pray much patience for you, Sister. ;-)
Posted by: DeskDiva | February 28, 2008 at 11:44 PM
CJ, are you able to keep Rosie?
*feels like a bit of a jerk for usin' the thread for personal use*
but not enough of a jerk to repent.
Posted by: Wyo Cowboy | February 28, 2008 at 11:45 PM
*sigh* I suspect I'm stuck with my name. NTTATWWT.
How totally unoriginal though. And let it be know that I will never, ever be able to say anything totally not PG rated here, ever.
(Doc. My business card reads
Cheryl Howard
Domestic Goddess
And frankly it does crack me up that it makes people smile.)
Okay, so moving on...
Sio--one vodika! (Is this a drink-o at the bar-o?)
Posted by: Cheryl Howard | February 28, 2008 at 11:47 PM
Cat, I thank you. I'm sure there will be other better ones from the rest of the talented bloglits!
Posted by: Siouxie | February 28, 2008 at 11:47 PM
I don't know, Sioux - so far that's pretty darned good!
Posted by: DeskDiva | February 28, 2008 at 11:50 PM
Who is Rosie?
Posted by: Cheryl Howard | February 28, 2008 at 11:50 PM
DG it is Cheryl. Domestic Goddess isn't taken to my knowledge so it's your's if you want it.
Posted by: Doc Rick | February 28, 2008 at 11:50 PM
Rosie is a riveter.
Posted by: Meditrina | February 28, 2008 at 11:52 PM
Cheryl, why not Domestic Goddess?
Posted by: Siouxie | February 28, 2008 at 11:52 PM
Rosie Palm???
Posted by: Siouxie | February 28, 2008 at 11:53 PM
Rosie Cheeks?
Posted by: Doc Rick | February 28, 2008 at 11:55 PM
Rosie palm? I thought the guy with the blue eyes had that esteemed title.
Posted by: Cheryl Howard | February 28, 2008 at 11:56 PM
Pardon me. The viagra-ised man who was seeing blue, that it.
Posted by: Cheryl Howard | February 28, 2008 at 11:57 PM
Aw. And here I thought you meant me, Cupcake!
Posted by: Frank Sinatra | February 29, 2008 at 12:00 AM
Rosie and the Originals.
"Angel Baby."
Posted by: SW | February 29, 2008 at 12:01 AM
Rosie Cheeks is kind of cute.
I'm zipping out now - there's something in the air......
Posted by: Eleanor | February 29, 2008 at 12:02 AM
OK, Kids. My sore throat is telling me to go to bed. Have a good night, y'all!
Posted by: Frank Sinatra | February 29, 2008 at 12:02 AM
Was it me?
Posted by: SW | February 29, 2008 at 12:02 AM
Well, crud. I guess I gave my sore throat to Frank. Sorry, Mr. Chairman!
Posted by: DeskDiva | February 29, 2008 at 12:03 AM
SW. Never.
I think its code for the new episode of Lost is on.
Posted by: Cheryl Howard | February 29, 2008 at 12:04 AM
Stevie - did you fart?
Posted by: DeskDiva | February 29, 2008 at 12:04 AM
OK, I feel like a bit of a stalker here, but...
CJ, is Rosie a boat? I found an old DaveBlog entry on just one Google search.
Posted by: Cat R. | February 29, 2008 at 12:04 AM
Rosie is a boat. I had a horse named Rosie too. My horse is dead, CJ's Rosie is still alive, but needin' some work.
Posted by: Wyo Cowboy | February 29, 2008 at 12:04 AM
Cheryl - it's a GOOOOOOOOOOOOD episode.
Posted by: DeskDiva | February 29, 2008 at 12:05 AM
Woooooo... Simul with Wyo!
(Sorry about your Rosie....)
Posted by: Cat R. | February 29, 2008 at 12:06 AM
I missed today's Idol AND LOST. I'll have to catch it tomorrow online.
Posted by: Siouxie | February 29, 2008 at 12:07 AM
Siouxie - pay REALLY close attention on Lost this week or you'll miss a lot.
Posted by: DeskDiva | February 29, 2008 at 12:08 AM
OK - I really am going to bed now.
Nighty night!
Posted by: DeskDiva | February 29, 2008 at 12:08 AM
I have a horse named So Far, So Good. You'd have to
meetride him for it to make any sense.I think I'd want a boat with a better name.
Posted by: Cheryl Howard | February 29, 2008 at 12:08 AM
Good night, Diva!
Posted by: Cat R. | February 29, 2008 at 12:09 AM
IF I had a boat...I'll name it "Machete Mama"...thanks to Texgal ;-)
Very apropopriatelike!
