scared of plastic.

update!
the lizard is fake!
HAHA i'm such a loser... i was so freaked out by it that i didnt even want to investigate it last night.... so today i did and its plastic! SOOOO back to the theory that it is some type of an animal.
My parents said it seems like the sounds raccoons make.
Who knows.... all i know is i never want to hear it again.

and its cow plop bingo day!

nightmare on suffolk

So.... imagine this... you're out cold (in a nyquil coma) and you are startled awake by the loudest blood curdling scream(ish) noise. that was my night.
What was it? you ask.. I have NO IDEA. it sounded like a squeak styled scream.. imagine a rat squeaking repeatedly at the top of its lungs over and over and over.. there was a sense of harm and pain in the noise, it was an insanely unnerving sound. I looked out the window, only to see it had woken my neighbors as well... one was on her back deck with the light on trying to figure out what this screeching was and i hear another say "a raccoon must've gotten something". I couldn't see anything but i could hear the noise and a strange deep panting breath. Ewwww. I didn't think I'd be able to go back to sleep..
THANK GOD the cats were in!
I almost left Sagan out because of his refusal to come in (i wanted to 'teach him a lesson' Hmmm am i a Bartlett or what?!?!)
I looked at my back deck today after work to look for a corpse of some sort... and you'd never guess what i found... a dead lizard?!?!?!? Since when do we have lizards in swampscott? Maybe someones pet got away? It's prob about 8-10" long, on its back and in a crunched up position.
Could that possibly have been the croaking scream?
The nerd that I am looked it up. lizard noises sound like some form of a croak and that the croak becomes a screaming croak when it is threatened. http://www.amnh.org/exhibitions/lizards/ Scroll to the bottom and listen to the barking gecko.
Then again someone told me there is a fisher cat problem around here... and they scream like a human being killed.... what the?!
I don't know. All i do know is that i NEVER want to hear that noise again.. and i see a dead gecko.

Decktails!

A group of 9 of us went to the cape this weekend for Mimi's bachelorette weekend... good times.

We started in West Dennis at the Conway Castle (thank you MimiMommy) settled in Hyannis in the middle and ended back at the castle.

how do i sum it up......
decktails, bright sun, lacrosse, baseball, light up veil, garter belt, no food, too much food, drag queens, karate chopping doors, penis rash, dan, mullets, whats in my omlete (eww), wicked good chowdah, and a bonfire.......
There is so much more but i just can't bore you with all of the details.

and i have a Sagan sitting on me now.

f-ing trees

I think i officially have allergies...

after 26 years being allergy free the pollen (i think tree) has finally reached me.

I went to bed with this strange tickle that made me wanna cough and woke up with a raw itchy throat.. a cough.. a headache.. and feel exhausted.

Mom and Tara.... how have you lived with this heinous thing for so long?!?!

at it again...

Here i sit, on my couch, listening to Sagan "mwow" "mwow" (yes it sounds like i spelled it). I let them out at about 9am ish this morning. I let them in at 10pm. Wow, i'm a great mom. I leave them outside without water and without food. When i pulled into the driveway Elton was standing at the door, tail straight up (and crooked at the end), looking SO excited to see me. I let him in and promptly picked him up to smother him with love so he knows i still like him. once i put him down he immediately booked it to the food! I went to call for Sagan... but of course he didnt come with my first attempt. I shut the door, got a drink and then called him again. This time i saw his BRIGHT GREEN eyes cruising towards me in the complete darkness... not one meow out of him as he ran to the food! I thought i may have foung the cure to the howl but NO he started right after he ate.

I hope they get over this meowing thing. Is it wrong of me to have a problem with a cat that meows?

not really sure about this..

So i have created a blog.... not sure how this is going to go. I have nothing exciting to share so i apologize, in advance, to those reading.
My cats miss the s*%#t out of Tara... she left and they don't quite to know what to make of it. She was here with them for the entirety of their lives. And now i am home after work and i let them out before work. SO when i do get home they meow and meow and meow until i pick them up and smother them with affection! Sagan, 'mr. i don't need anyone' has become an affection junky... he sleeps with me (mostly on me) every night. And Elton 'the queen' is needy, but in a different way. Its like he just wants me to know he's there.. he'll meow and then drop to the floor in the most dramatic way and start purring immediately?! don't ask.
I miss tara's food. i actually ate a green pepper for dinner one night. raw. how pathetic.
I'll probably forget to do this on a regular basis... so make sure you hold your breath waiting for my next post!!!
