Happy Wednesday

Facebook is the devil. That’s all I want to say. It lures me in. Like every five minutes. So if I don’t get this book written, it’s all because I was changing my status every five minutes and picking out my flare.

Know what else is evil? The ice cream in my freezer. So I took that and some sundae stuff to Bible stuff last night. And there was so much left over, I brought it home–thinking I could handle it at my house until the next event. No! I CAN’T handle it! AND I have bananas at my house, so it’s like banana splits ALL DAY LONG. Someone needs to physically remove the ice cream (and hot fudge. okay, and the caramel.) from my house! I’m too weak!

So there are woods in the back of my house. And it’s turned into a freakin’ bird sanctuary. It’s driving me nuts. I have at least two hawks that talk NONSTOP. They are obnoxious! I am HATING nature right now! (As one friend pointed out, maybe the manic woodpeckers I got rid of sent them.) One of them will even stop by and hang out on my deck some times. Here he is.

I call him Loud Obnoxious Bird Who Needs to Fly Away. LOBWNTFA for short.

This is LOBWNTFA’s Exorcist impression where he spins his head completely around and looks at me like he’s about to claw my eyes out.

He’s seriously thinking about attacking here. He is not into having his picture taken.

And here we have wing lift-off. This would be where I had a vision of the bird clawing through my screen and me screaming and begging him to let me keep my eyeballs.

I think we both took our leave after that shot.

I mentioned seeing singer Tim McGraw a few weeks ago. Recently in a concert he took a drunk guy (we’ll call him Bubba) to task for manhandling a lady in front of the stage. Tim got a bird’s eye view of that and put a stop to it. It’s only good in the beginning, but notice the moment he pulls back his fist. If security didn’t take care of it, ‘ol Tim would. And I LOVE the line that he picks up with right after the guy is carted off.

Have a great Wednesday and Thursday. I’m off to change my Facebook status write.

    Wow.. that was wild. :) Sorry about the birds.. maybe you should get an attack pet… like a bird dog? Warning, though –they do bark. ALL DAY. I had one once. Very loud, very obnoxious –it’d also remove lots of grass from running. ;) Hope it gets better soon –and GET OFF FACEBOOK!! I want a book to read!! lol. Oh, but I do appreciate the facebook wall writings. ;)

    Ahhhh, naive one. You must first tame the dragon before you can defeat the evil facebook! You have much to learn. Thats OK though, I’m sure some ice cream will help enlighten you. BTW, Try turkey hill’s low fat ice cream. It’s amazing! Oh, ice cream. How I love you!

    Oh. My. Word. I have a facebook addiction too! We should be facebook friends and further perpetuate the downward spiral…

    Well just a few streets down we have in our wildlife sanctuary: One stray cat named Charlie (thought it was a boy–he is a girl) Three raccoons that we have not named but they eat Charlie’s cat food when he/ she has finished dinner. Three or four deer, several thousand squirrels, some ring neck snakes (which my two year old likes to catch) did I mention that he caught a baby squirrel. Last but not least some wild coyotes. Welcome to the woods…Oh, yes we also have woodpeckers….

    I’m not a country fan, but after seeing this, I think I’ll like Tim McGraw. Even if he is married to Faith Hill. Yech.

    okay first of all that hawk is GORGEOUS!..even if he does look a little like he’s about to go for your jugular with his talons… and second of all, I sent you a link to my wedding pics so you wouldn’t have to go to facebook to see them. I’m accommodating like that…. no if you’ll excuse me I’ve got to go make my facebook page less lame.

    Facebook and Blue Bell Ice Cream…conspiracy from hell. No doubt.

    Send those hawks to me! I love those loud cries!

  9. Jenny June 27th, 2008 11:04 am

    You would NOT love those loud cries ALL DAY LONG NON-STOP!!!! UGHH. And Turkey Hill ice cream? I don’t know if I can eat ice cream with turkey references. Oh, who am I kidding? Of course I could.

    And RJ, those ring snakes COME IN MY HOUSE. ON a regular basis. They are not cute. I’ve had like 20 of them over the last couple of years, and my snake-getting-cat is RIP.
