It's a Superior Monday!

It's a superior Monday for several reasons. Firstly, it's Memorial Day, which means I don't have to work. Secondly, it's a great holiday for food. Lots of grilling going on today. Dogs, burgers, steaks, you name it. You know what goes great with steak? This radar.

Get it?

Get it now? Great! Now that we're on the same page, I want to... oh, wait, there's another one.

Mkay. I wanted to.... dammit, another one!

Okay, are we done with the lobsters, mother nature?

.....Okay, great!

Anyway, I wanted to point out something interesting about Lake Superior. You may have noticed lobster #2 looking a little concerned and/or intimidated. That's because he (and I) realized today what Lake Superior looks like. It looks like a disembodied shark's head with a smug face. Eat your heart out, Alanis, because I submit to you that Lake Superior looking like a shark with a superiority complex takes the irony cake.

Get over yourself, Superior Shark. Just for that, lobster #2 gets a wizard hat.

Happy Memorial Day, everyone!

Caturday!

I survived our mega stormpacolypse the other day with zero injuries to life or property! Btown did get hit by a small tornado, but it was the other side of town, and luckily, no one was killed. It was still very scary, though. All this horrible junk was moving towards us, and everyone was all, "HIDE YO KIDS, HIDE YO WIFE, AND TAKE COVER!!!" And I was all,

Btw, you may recall from a previous post that I was considering getting a kitten. That's him. His name is Mr. Biffles, and he has seven fingers on each front paw. Do you ever see a lion on tv and think "OMG, I want to hold it's huge paws and just squeeeesh the hell out of them!"? Yeah. That's basically what happens to Mr. Biffles on a daily basis.

Speaking of kittens, it's Caturday! And it looks like the radar has taken notice of this as well.

However, little feller, while cute....

CUTE. Trust me on this one.

...is NO match for the basket of wtfadorable which is Mr. Biffles.

Mr. Biffles > everything.

Scurry Weather UPDATE

In addition to earlier's post, I'd just like to mention that I actually have no idea where or how this is going to hit us. This doesn't look like it's barreling down to steal our souls:

Apparently, it's something that is going to manifest suddenly, which is pretty terrifying. Maybe we'll get lucky and he'll be friendly....

Scurry Weather

I've decided posting every day is a little unrealistic. I'm going to shoot for 3 or 4 times a week. If that's not good enough for you, Little Lord Fauntleroy, then there's the door.

Just kidding. Please don't leave. I need you.

Anywhoser, there has been some really scary weather lately. :c They are predicting a severe outbreak for our area as well. This is the first wave, and a second, more severe one will be hitting this evening.

WHY does this have to look so friggin' terrifying?? As if the images from the news weren't scary enough, the storm itself has to look like some huge-ass devil bird shooting lasers out of its eyes, getting ready to devour the poor, little worm that is Bloomington.

And we're all,

And he's all,

Everyone stay safe tonight!

BRB - Kitten apocalypse

Oh, hai!

Sorry for yesterday's absence. What with the impending doomsday tonight at 6:00pm, and the fact that kittens have been laying eggs in my soul for the past 24 hours, I've been a little distracted.

I assume that second one needs a little explanation.

A co-worker has two kittens available for adoption. One of them has seven fingers on its front paws. That, in itself, should be all the explanation one might require, but just in case you're not convinced that these kittens are forcing me to make a painful and adorable decision, here's a picture:

That amazing one on the right, giving you the thumbs-up, is (obviously) the one with the extra phalanges. He should only have six, which leads me to believe he stole his brother's thumbs (left) as he should also have six, but only has five.

I wish I could hire someone to just make all of life's decisions for me. It's one of those occasions where even making a tried-and-true Pros/Cons list doesn't help me come to a decision.

Yeah, this didn't help at all.

Anyway, these two heart-breakers keep getting more wide-eyed every time I look at their pictures. Which means it's time for me to step away from the computer again and mull this over some more. Not that this will help, really. They are embedded in my brain. I even had dreams about them. O_O Someone tell me what to do!

Actually, that won't help either. I've had lots of people tell me what to do on this one, and each time it ends the same way: me, back in front of the computer screen, holding a stuffed animal and sighing longingly as I eye them back and fourth.

Damn you, kitten apocalypse!
