Isn't this too cute?

She also thought of my poor tired feet

It's a foot massager!

Jury Duty! Again!

This time my services are required in The Southern District Court next month in Galveston.
Should I not be chosen to serve on a trial, I will be on call for 12 working days.
Should I be chosen to serve on a trial my services will end at the end of the trial.
Do they have really long trials at this level?
I'll bet they do!

The Interloper

The cat outside is getting braver,
but still won't let me get touch her.


I fed her by the door hoping to get a closer look
to see if she is a she for sure,
but she prefered to snack facing Rhett.
They have been having some major staring contests.

I think he is in love....sigh.

Rhett and his little friend will
be boarding The Friday Ark

100 127 Word StoryPoem

Ok so this started out to be a 100 word story for this week's 100 Word Story Challenge, then is was not a hundred words or a story.
Sometimes it just works out that way.

A Christmas Tale

Twas the day before Christmas
And down at the mall
The traffic had slowed
to a proverbial crawl

The pressure was mounting,
And tempers grew hot
The competition was on
For each parking spot

When what should my wondering
eyes did appear?
A car backing out?
The way is all clear?

I smiled and laughed,
This is excellent luck!
When from the other side,
In pulled a big truck.

He hopped out of the cab,
The big stupid jerk
Then nodded and gave me
A rude little smirk

The anger was raging,
My face was beat red
And visions of slashed tires
Danced my head.

In a blink of my eye,
He was out of my sight.
Merry Christmas Asshole
You are not worth the fight.

Christmas Around The WWW

This is pretty silly, but thankfully short.
I don't think anyone could stand too much of this guy.
I almost didn't post this because I am just not clear on what that
thing is
*whispers*
between his legs.

We had an early Christmas, since we won't see them then

This is kind of cute IF you can get the hang of it.

You will want to mute the sound, though.

Trust me.

Work Related: House Flippers

I'm so tired of dealing with these people that have watched/or worse purchased a program from one of those stupid infomercials about getting rich in real estate.

Seriously, if you could really buy a bunch of houses with no down payment, bad credit and only pay pennies on the dollar, those of us in the business would be rich already.

*stepping down*

PS: If any of you ARE getting rich this way..show me how!
