Greetings, peeps! Things have been a little crazy over here as Sissy and I plan and coordinate a cross team metrics based "Snowball Fight" at work. I may make a post on that later. For now, though, as I'm officially off for Thanksgiving, I have a silly post for y'all.

A few days ago, I received a lengthy text message from Porchae while at work with the following picture. -She had been watching one of the ridiculous GOP debates on DVR.......



"Minni Mause comes to you peoples this evening to tell you, the American Peoples, that Minni needs more Minni bones.

It is a dark hour in Minni's. It is especially important to the safety of the peoples that the Minni bone crisis is dealt with, and dealt with swiftly. Without Minni bones, Minni gets grumpy. And if Minni is grumpy, Minni will ruin international relationships by being impatient, needlessly jingling Minni's collar, and yes, even noisily speakin' when Minni is not apost to. Minni cannot help it. Minni needs Minni bones.

Accordingly, to save the nation, Minni requests that Congress pass an emergency provision now to allow immediately for Minni to get more Minni bones. This legislation should not only be short term so that Minni is not grumpy for today, but it should also address tomorrow, the next day, and even next week.

Ensuring Minni's Minni bones never reach emergency levels again assures the safety of not just Minni, but also of Minni's peoples -the American peoples. Minni urges Congress to take this proposal srsly and pass it as soon as possible.

Minni thanks you peoples for listening to Minni. Have a good evening, God bless Minni's, and eat more chicken so Minni can have some!"



Minni was, in fact, quite grumpy when I got home. Naturally, with such a dire crisis looming -because every problem is a crisis, you know- we took immediate action the next morning. Below the cut, you will see our swift and appropriate response to the Minni Bone Crisis.

Seriously, there are some ridiculously adorable pictures in here... )


And so we have a considerably less grumpy pup. ;D She is pretty scruffy, though. I like her scruffy, (her eyebrows are fun to mess up) but she needs to be sheered! lol

I have a real update to make about work and the like, plus catching up on the book meme, and some other stuff but first, I wanted to introduce you guys to someone...


Meet Terrance the Turtle, otherwise known as Agent T.

Uh... That's a piece of food in the pic there, not a piece of poo.

Ahh, yes. In our family's tradition, he has been named after a cartoon character. Actually, two: Terrance from South Park, (the Terrance & Phillip Show), and the Agency from Phineas & Ferb. Technically we made up Agent T, but it's just in the pattern of the great agents in the show. :D

Isn't he cute? We have to buy him a water filter and figure out a way to stack his rocks so he doesn't keep knocking them down. He's still shy around the family right now and quickly demolishes our careful constructions as soon as he thinks we're not there. lol

Minni can't stand him. We had him in the bathtub for a little while while we prepared his tank, and Minni was just beside herself. She wanted to know what he was, BUT he was in water, and she just couldn't stand to think of getting her paws wet, but... SHE NEEDED TO KNOW! lol She would grab one of us, nudging us along to the bathroom, and then clung to the edge of the tub and whined that there's something in there!!! XD

So, I guess we're back to three pets: Minni the mini schnauzer, Mr. Bird the parakeet, and Terrance the Turtle - aka Agent T. \o/ Animals are awesome!

I have been actively trying to get this picture of Minni for about 2 years.

See, the little poser sleeps like this often; the problem? She KNOWS when a camera is coming. >.> I'm convinced. Because every time I tried to get a picture of it, she moved. Well, I finally got her last night when she was well and truly sacked out! Mwahaha! Behold the cuteness!



Isn't she adorable?! XD She covers her eyes with her paws like that all the time when it's too bright, or she's irritated with the noise we're making as she's trying to sleep. (Both last night. lol)

The result: it will look like she's playing hide-and-seek or peek-a-boo. XD

I do wish I could have gotten a better angle with better light, but MWAHA! I finally caught it on camera!

What's that? You want to see more pictures of Minni? Well, I happen to have a few! )

Today, just as I was leaving to get my iPhone, Minni went ballistic. We had thought it was Squirrel, but...

Well. I'll let Minni tell the story below:


Finded it!
LOOK WHAT MINNI FOUND! COME SEE! COME SEE!!!


Follow Minni, peoples! )

We named him Tweek - Porchae's idea - because he was rather twitchy. Poor little dude was scared out of his mind. He kept baring his teeth at us, but he didn't move. I half wonder if he was injured or stuck... I'll check in the morning. If he's still there... What do y'all think we should do? Obviously we can't touch him; are there services for that kind of thing?
