So as I do my morning rounds of the various palaces I visit I came across this news story and was so amused I had to do a little write up and make it my first offical musing woo hoo.
VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. (AP) - Authorities removed nearly 200 animals from a Virginia Beach home, including 89 frozen ferret carcasses. Police spokeswoman Margie Long said animal control agents found more than 100 live ferrets, a dog, a bird and three cats, most of them suffering from dehydration and malnutrition. Long said the frozen bodies of 89 ferrets, a cat, a rat and an otter were discovered in freezers in the house and garage. Sixty-one of the live ferrets had to be euthanized because of poor health.
Yes, there are people who really have a problem hording animals and are in need of some help. It just seems like things went really wrong in this household. Now you may ask Wally what has you so amused at this situation. Well I get to the sentence.... "Long said the frozen bodies of 89 ferrets, a cat, a rat and an otter were discovered in freezers in the house and garage." I'm reading through, and thinking to myself.. Frozen Farrets..... cat..... rat..... and OTTER? It brings me back to childhood when on Sesame Street they played that game. One of these things is not like the other thing one of these things is just not the same can you guess which one of these things is not like the other thing? Well that just ran through my head where in the world would this woman get an OTTER that has got to be one of the weirdest things to have in your freezer. Unless your a woodman and live in Alaska or something. And than I got to thinking what about this womans husband.... could a conversation like this ever have taken place. Honey I know we have all these farrets and other animals but it you REALLY loved me you'd get me an OTTER? Ok maybe I have beat this horse into the ground but it was fun....how big of a freezer do I need? Oh never mind....

Blog Thoughts
Yesterday a thought came to me, I love how these blogs give me a better incite in to the daily lives of the people I care about. Family, friends etc. Makes me wish more people would blog. I also got to thinking about Jessi's Wednesday OUI post and wanted to somehow do something similar here. So I have chosen to steal the idea shamelessly. So starting next Monday I will try and have Moonshado's Mammoth Monday Musing and extra special entry each Monday. I just love all the M's :-)
The toilet paper controversy.
So after much consideration and soul searching I have decided to compromise. I have purchased the Scott soft. It is heralded as their "Softest and Thickest EVER" So only time will tell if this will be pleasing to the various tushes it will grace. I promise and update once we actually do some product testing and break into those rolls.
Last night was another first for Amity and I! I formally introduced her to Killer Bunnies and all indications are she loves it. This is great news and my friends and I get together weekly to have game night and play all kinds of card games and now she can be included! Woo Hoo!
There was a great episode of House last night, anyone who does not watch the show should. There will be a new episode after the Superbowl this weekend so make sure y'all tune in.
I was quite happy today as I finally got my W2's in the mail. Can't wait to get my money back from the good ole IRS!

A great weekend!
What makes for a great weekend you ask? Absolutely nothing, that's exactly what Saturday was and that's exactly what I needed. As most people know work has kept me very busy and I have been working most weekends. This was the first weekend in quite sometime that I had off where I did not have it scheduled to the hilt. Saturday was great, got up at 8:30 and made Amity breakfast, a nice breakfast pizza. (I have become very food at making these) Just ask Amity, she not only had it for breakfast, but for lunch and dinner. Yea its that good. Got her off to work. Went to the post office as I am so waiting to get my W-2's. I want to do my taxes I want my refund woo hoo. So what is it with companies waiting till the last minute to give us our w2's I remember the days when I owed money they always got them to me early. Back to my Saturday so anyway I get back from the post office and saunter up to bed and promptly fall back to sleep. I drag myself out of bed at about 2:30 quite refreshed I might add. Spend the rest of the day watching tv and relaxing. How nice that was. Sunday Amity and I got up at 11:30 and while she so lovingly folded my laundry ( I tell her to leave it for the house keeper but she still does it) I snuck down the the store to get her her favorite sandwich. Ham Cheese and as I call it PEEKEL its just funny to say it that way. After lunch we went to watch UNTRACEABLE with my other friend Phil. I thought it was a good movie...they well did not like it quite as much as I did. Hey their tastes in movies is sometimes lacking but hey I like them anyway. We went out to Longhorn for dinner which was good. I had not intended to go out to eat but Phil wanted to go. I had planned on going shopping well that did not happen. I better go quick down to only one roll of toilet paper......... Which makes me ask.... why do women use so much toilet paper I remember the days when a 4 pack of Scott would last at least 2 months..... we can now reduce that by a factor of 4 ...... and I have been informed that this
is better than this
I might give it a try...we shall see. :-)

The First Post
So, I sit here on a Friday night work is almost done. All day I have been thinking what on earth should my first post be about. Something touching something heart felt something with meaning and flair. Eh, screw that I'm just happy it's friday. Going to get out of work go grab some Ming's and head over to my good friend Scott's for a fun evening of Killer Bunnies. What is Killer Bunnies you ask well its a card game there are a few links on the left hand side here where you can read about it. It is such a fun game. Such a fun game that much to Amity's dismay I bought it. Sorry hun I just could not wait. I know she wanted to get it for me for Valentines day. Ah well hun there are still plenty of Munchkin games left. I know I am so hard to buy for. Just have to be more creative.
