Finally Friday

MILES

It's Finally Friday. The little rug rat makes a good footstool. Plus, he likes having my feets on him. He purrrs so much that my feets vibrate.

Sorry we didn't get around to visit much yesterday. Mommy hadded some 'puter things to do, plus lots of laundry and getting her clothes ready for next week. Then he hadded to go visit grammie and grampie. Then she camed home and she was tired.
::SIGH::

OH! Happy Leap Day!

Squillion Day, Award, aCATemy awards, Meme - PHEW

SEVILLE the Squillion

Dear Littermate Squillions:
How are you all doing? I love living here with the Meezers, but I must admit, as cute as the Meezers are, I have been a bit lonely. Now I have my very own Ginger Boy!! I am so very happy! He likes me and we like talking together. He's a bit wild, but I think I can calm him down.
I hope all of my Green Wall Shelter littermate Squillions are as happy in their forever homes as I am in mine!

SAMMY

Our wonderful friend Scout gave us this award! We are so very happy and honored and we thank you so very much Scout!!

SAMMY

I would like to thank the aCATemy and my good furriend Skeezix for this award! I am so honored to be recognized for my brilliant portrayal of a reindeer in the CCSI production. I would like to thank the outstanding cast and crew for their tireless work in this outstanding production. I would like to thank my Mommy for giving bir.......... er........ adopting me and giving me access to the internet so that I could meet such outstanding cats.

MILES I would like to thank Skeezix for awarding me this prestij...... prestag...... important award for my wonderful acting talents. The cast and crew were wonderful, but I would like to especially like to thank the craft services for providing me with honey baked hams every day during the gruuling rehersals and filming. Without them I surely would have wasted away to nothing. I would also like to thank my girlfriendcat Sanjee for her support and cuddles. I love you Sanjee!!!

Meezer Rule and Whapping Wednesday

MILES

Meezer Rule:

If you can't whap'em, snuggle'em

(PEE ESS: right after this pikshur, the little rat bit me, so I whapped him)

REVISED MEEZER RULE:

snuggle'em THEN whap'em

SAMMY

The whappage last night. It's kind of nice having a little brother. See, he was running around like a little psyko, so I got up on the table and whapped the "File Pile"

Whapping lesson:

Take advantage of your bean's being busy with other things, then whap whap whap!!

Fankful Friday Fourteen

SAMMY

Our wonderful friend Karl gave us this award! We are so thrilled! Thank you so much!

This award was created by Mel at Monday Morning Power. Here is his description of the award:"I have always wanted to create and give out my own award. So after much thought I have decided to create the "WINNING ATTITUDE AWARD." This award seems like a natural given what my site is all about. This award is based on positive thinking and is meant for those blogs who base their existence, in part or in whole, on Positive Winning Attitudes."

Since so much has been happening this week here, we will award this to other kitties over the weekend.

Friday Fourteen
Fourteen Things About Baby Bill:

1. Mommy finded him in the parking lot of the grocery store, and he hollered at her and she told him to come to her and he did.
2 . He has never hissed at Mommy
3. He didn't hiss at the v-e-t
4. He has a horrible infection on his neck that keeps draining
5. His eye will never heal. He has a scratch on his cornea from either herpes when he was a little baby or a fight, but he does have a little sight in that eye and normal sight in his other eye.
6. Mommy says he has probably never been inside - she had to show him how to eat out of a bowl by pushing his nose into his food. but he learned fast.
7. He keeps dumping his water dish, so mommy gives him kitten milk replacement so that he won't dehydrate
8. Miles has not hissed at him.
9. I am very GRRY and HISSY with him
10. he's very STINKY.
11. Mommy had to show him how to use the litter box. She putted OUR poop in his box and he went in right away and did his business.
12. he does holler alot - he could be an honorary ginger meezer
13. He will haf his hoo-ha-ectomy as soon as he gets his vaccinations. He can't haf them until his infection in his neck goes away
14. He purrrrss ALL THE TIME. Maybe he's Grampa Norton come back to us. Grampa Norton purred every day of his life all day unless he was sick. That's how mommy and daddy knowed he was sick. Baby Bill looks like Grampa Norton so maybe he has come back to us!

Meezer Rule and Whapping Wednesday

MILES

Meezer Rule: when you gets good noos, SCREAM IT AT THE TOP OF YOUR LUNGS.

(and show people your missing teefs at the same time)

SAMMY

This is the result of this weekend's whapping session.

Everything you see here was on the table (mommy was cleaning up some)

Let's see, magazies, bottle of nip, canning jar (those really make a loud crash when you whap them into the wall first, which is what I did and it maded Mommy jump off the couch to see what I breaked), hat, tissues, the 'puter cord was already on the floor

Yep, all this stuff was whapped too - basket of canning jar lids, candy bag, pens, canning jar holder, bag
Lesson for today:
When you have the opportunity to undo a cleaning session, do it fast and furious. You can score major whappage points that way.

'Acitement!

MILES

Fank you all for the well wishes for mommy's new jobbie!! We is very 'acited here.
Some of you askded if we will be invoking the M-werd. Well, we doesn't know yet. Mommy has to 'acide what she wants to do - like get a cheap studio compartment in Buffalo that we could stay in for a couple of days a week, or find a house to rent halfway between here and there. Our grammie and grampie only live 10 miles away from us here, and because they're geezers and not healthy, mommy wants to be less than an hour away from them in case anyfing happens. So halfway between here and her werk would be nice. So, it will take a couple of monfs to 'acide what we is gonna do. Plus, we has to save up green papers if we is gonna invoke the M-werd.
We has nefur done that 'afore - this is the only house we has efur lived in. Gramma Trixie and Grampa Norton and The One Who Came Before Ralphie moved ALOT wif mommy and daddy. We is nervous if we has to do that.

Oh, and just WAIT till you see the whappage that was done this weekend. Sammy has a GREAT post for whapping wednesday tomorrow!!

LATE BREAKING NOOS

SAMMY

Ok, here is the latest, breakingnest noos!!

MOMMY IS WAITING FOR AN OFFICIAL WRITTEN "OFFER" LETTER FROM THE BUFFALO JOBBIE!! They's sending it fed-x

It's more green papers than she was hoping for!!! She finks she's starting on March 3 or 10.

So, in about 6-8 weeks we will be getting green papers again!!! WOO HOOO!!!!

NOW, you has to purray for daddy! The innerview last week didn't pan out, BUT, a couple of weeks ago he hadded an innerview. They was looking for 2 people and daddy camed in 3rd (he's changing careers to werk wif 'puters again), BUT, he gotted a phone call that saided that the company he camed in 3rd wif called the head hunter and requested that he go innerview for anofur posishun - and the head hunter tolded him that if they liked him, he might efen start werking the day he innerviews. so we is waiting for an innerview to be set up. So, please keep the jobbie purrayers coming for daddy! They werked for Mommy!!!
Fank you all so much for all of your positive thoughts - the cat blogosphere can make things happen!!!!

Meezer Mancat Monday

SAMMY

Well, I drove the Daytona 500 yesterday. I finished 20th. It was lots of fun, but I think I can only do that once a year. That's a long time to go without a nap.

We are 90% sure we will have a special report this afternoon.

we hope...............

Meezer drives in Daytona 500

SAMMY

WOWIE!! LOOKIE!!! I'm driving in the Daytona 500 today!! My buddies at the M-Cats Club will be rooting me on from the Skybox today!! I hopes I haf some of my buddies i my pit crew though. At least this car is a little smaller than the Big Red Bus that we took on the Road Trip for Romance, so I stand a pretty good chance of not losing. I just hope that I don't hit Dale Jr, because then all the fans there would hate me.

Wish me luck! I haf to go get into my fire suit and make shur the car is in "race trim".

WHEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Efurryone is invited to watch the race from the Skybox

Finally Friday

MILES

Whew, it's finally friday! It's been a nervous week and we still don't know nothing about jobbies. what we do know? mommy is WEIRD! She opened a can of foods for us the other night and saided "it's dinner time - it's seafood dinner! let's see, there's seafood and dinner in it" ::Sigh:: she's gone around the bend for real this time.

Thankful Thursday and Happy Valentine's Day

SAMMY

We are so very thankful to our wonderful friend Daisy Mae Maus for sending us a Valentine's Day package! Look at all of the good stuff!! Some of our favorite foods, our most favorite flavor of tem-tay-shuns and 2 nip raviolis! See Miles sniffing them? That's the last time he was close to them. HA! THEY'RE MINE!!

Our wonderful friend Java gave us this award. He said that we was the inspiration for him to blog! US!! an inspiration! That is just so nice! Thank you very much Java!
Ok, about the jobbie situation: No news yet from the jobbie in Buffalo. They gotted her references on Tuesday and forwarded them on. The head hunter did not hear anyfing from the company on Wednesday. Last night, mommy gotted a call from another company here in Rochester that does consulting to the company that laid her off in 2006. The job they have is working with almost EVERYONE that she worked with at the jobbie that laid her off in 2006. It just would not be working FOR the company but consulting TO the company. She talked to him for over an hour and he will discuss "next steps" with the consulting company tomorrow. Mommy says she would rather take a new opportunity in Buffalo than a job back where she really was not too happy, if she is lucky enough to be offered both. But, she might not be offered either. SO we shall just wait and cross our fingers and pray.
Thank you all for your prayers and thoughts.

Meezer Rule and Whapping Wednesday

MILES

I don't get this dog show stuff. We hadded to watch it last night on TV. We haf to watch it efurry year. Poor woofies. Why does they agree to be put on a rope and ranned around on fake grass, and haf people in formal clothes touch them in weird and inappropriate places? Sheesh! I seen some lady stick her hand where only a v-e-t should stick theirs hands on some poor dog who hadded dredlocks in his furs. How embarassing on nashunal TV.

Meezer Rule: Cats should nefur subject themselfs to being felt in inappropriate places on nashunal TV.

SAMMY

So, I finished my puzzle. LOOK! Do you see something interesting in this pikshur?

A closer look.
Yes Mom, I whapped that last piece into outerspace.

Whapping lesson for today

Always make shur that you whap the last piece of a puzzle, or model or any project your human is werking on. Whap it hard and whap it far. This will ensure hours, if not days, of amusement while they look for it.

Seriously, I whapped it. We cannot find the piece anywhere.

Nope, still not finished

SAMMY

My puzzle is still not finished. And mommy is terrible at taking pikshurs - look how blurry I am!!

Thank you all for the purrayers for mommy's job! We will let efurryone know as soon as we do. We just hope they goes for quality over the local person.

We has been given some more awards, and we gotted a pakage in the mail too. We will post all of that for a Thankful Thursday post this week. Thank you to all of you who haf gived us awards!

now,where does this piece go? .............um

in my mouf?

Manly Meezer Monday

NEWSFLASH: Please say your purrayers for mommy. She got tolded today that she is one of two finalists (and the ferst choice) for a jobbie!! The only prollem is that the jobbie is in Buffalo, abouut 86 miles from our house. Mommy says that we would move to be closer to the jobbie, but the other person that is a finalist is from Buffalo, so they may choose him over Mommy just for that reason. So please say purrayers that they go with their ferst choice - mommy!

SAMMY

Who wants to help me finish my puzzle?

MILES

Ferst, mommy says "THANK YOU" for all the get well wishes and purrsss. She is starting to feel a little less yucky, even though she hadded the "headache from the place i cannot say because it's on my bad werd list" yesterday and last night.

Second, I realize she is sicky, but sicky people should never, ever, try and groom a kitty. know why? SHE MUTILATED ME!!! ok, well, mutilate is a harsh werd, See, she was clipping the claws on my back feets and she clipped one a little too close, and it started to bleed and I screamed and she jumped and I jumped and I clawed her cheek and it started to bleed. It was all very tramajik. I'm traumatized.

Some words of advice - Thursday 13

SAMMY

Here are some words of advice for when the beans are sick:

1. barfing makes them barf
2. stinky poops in the middle of the night make them gag in their sleep
3. poking the claw of doom into their forehead will get you launched from the bed
4. plucking the fev-vers out of their pillows while they're sleeping will get you moved off the bed
5. kicking them in the back of the head while you're on the couch will get you removed from the couch
6. ten thousand kissies on the forehead may be a little excessive. for some reason their skin cannot handle it.
7. chewing on plastic stuff will get you yelled at. ALOT
8. while they normally do not mind you laying against their arms while they are on the laptop, somehow being sick makes them ultra sensitive to this and you get moved. ALOT
9. petting their faces makes them get all mushy and kissy
10. they have BAD breafs when they're sick
11. they are furry warm to snuggle against
12. they tend to lay still longer
13. they give really really nice scritches when you snuggle nice.

Meezer Rule and Whapping Wednesday

MILES

Open closets must must must be inspekted from top to bottom and everywhere in between. You never know when you are going to find things like old yearbooks or baby pikshurs to embarass your beans with. I mean to use as blackmail. I mean to laff at. Something like that.

SAMMY

Since mommy is sick, I haf decided to haf a lesson on whapping the beans. Now, you might say "Sammy, if you whap the beans, you is gonna get in trouble" Well, sometimes you will, if you don't remember somefing furry impawtant- whap wif a light paw. Try flipping the female beans hair or flicking an ear. She might actually giggle when you do that. so you can whap her and make her like it!! If you haf a heavy sleeper, then nightime is the right time for whapping! You can whap them right in the face and they won't feel it if they're heavy sleepers. If they're not, then you are taking your life in your paws doing that. Instead, whap their feets through the blankies.
Whapping at ankles when they are walking by is always fun. And don't forget the ever important hand whapping when they're trying to pet you!
Practice these ideas this week!

awards and sicky Tuesday

SAMMY

The wonderful Scout gived us this special award! we is just so honored that she would give this to us!

and our wonderful friends Zoey and The Furballs gave us the excellence award! we haf gotten this before, but we is 'acited to get it again, because there was so many other kitties we wanted to give it so, so thank you Zoey!!

However, we cannot pass out the awards today because Mommy is really sicky. We needs to purr on her to make her better.

Meezer Mancat Monday

MILES

A rare moment of Meezer comraderie
