One thing I neglected to talk about in the latest holiday wrap-up was the fact that Tansy inherited a couple of gifts I gave to Trix that she didn’t care for. She got the neat-looking squeaky duck, andthe much-sought-after Skineeez raccoon that Tans stole from Trix over and over again. Today was kind of a …

Goodbye 2015, You Mixed Bag Of Wackiness!
So yeah. There’s only 2 whole days left in this whirlwind of a year that is 2015. How in the sweet merciful hell did that happen? I feel like I’ve been running on what I thought was a treadmill, but now I realize that it was one of those moving sidewalks in the airport and …

Doggy Hodgepodge
I figure I have some time, so why not write about Tans and Trix. Plus, it’s an excuse to put up this photo of Tansy with Santa. I also sent it to her puppy raisers and they seemed to like it. It was quite an adventure to get to this one pet store that was …
A Late Merry Christmas And An Early Happy New Year
Turns out I forgot to wish you all a merry Christmas. Oops. I know Carin took care of it before we left, but I generally do it too, so consider it done. It wouldn’t be me if something wasn’t done late, right? Who am I to mess with tradition? But if I were one to …

And the stupid Christmas Songs Continue After Christmas
I know Christmas is over, but I have one more stupid Christmas song that needs a place up here, mostly because I want to make fun of it. I thought of this song Christmas Eve when I knew I wouldn’t have time to do it justice. So, I give you Darcy the Dragon. I do …

The Cajun 12 Days of Christmas
Last year, I had the Irish letter about the 12 days of Christmas, which incidentally, still makes me cry at the end. I suck. Am I the only one? Probably yes. I can’t stand watching people cry, even if they’re joking. Now I see on a friend’s Facebook, there is a Cajun version. 12 days/letters …
Merry Christmas And All That Stuff
Let’s keep up the theme of bad Christmas songs with this gem. This damn song will always remind me of a toy goose that Trixie got for Christmas…and destroyed in one sitting. The Shoe Thief and Steve nicknamed it Honky the Christmas goose, and I had no idea what they were talking about. If I …
Sorry, Santa
Surprisingly, this is the first Christmas joke I’ve gotten this year. I don’t think I’ve heard it before, which is also surprising. And it’s even funny, which is almost as surprising as those first two things. Don’t get me wrong, I like it when people send me jokes. But I’m pretty sure that through the …
Dominick The Italian Christmas Donkey: No Good, But Still Better Than The Little Drummer Boy
After I wondered if there was a worse Christmas song than the Little Drummer Boy yesterday, a buddy of mine tweeted to remind me of something I hadn’t considered. Dominick The Italian Christmas Donkey. He’s so right. But the one thing this one has going for it over Drummer Boy, at least around here, is …
Is There A Worse Christmas Song Than The Little Drummer Boy?
Carin sent me this link, which reminded me of this link, which both served as reminders that the Little Drummer Boy is a crappy, crappy song. The concept really is stupid when you put a moment’s thought into it, plus I’m not sure there’s even a good version of the thing in existence. I’m racking …
