The hubby sent me this and I thought I’d share it with all the dog lovers out there.

Ten Peeves that Dogs Have About Humans

1. Blaming your farts on me… not funny… not funny at all !!!
2. Yelling at me for barking.. I’M A FRIGGIN’ DOG, YOU IDIOT!
3. Taking me for a walk, then not letting me check stuff out. Exactly whose walk is this anyway?
4. Any trick that involves balancing food on my nose… stop it!
5. Any haircut that involves bows or ribbons. Now you know why we chew your stuff up when you’re not home.
6. The sleight of hand, fake fetch throw. You fooled a dog! Whoooo Hoooooooo what a proud moment for the top of the food chain.
7. Taking me to the vet for “the big snip”, then acting surprised when I freak out every time we go back!
8. Getting upset when I sniff the crotches of your guests. Sorry, but I haven’t quite mastered that handshake thing yet.
9. Dog sweaters. Hello ???, Haven’t you noticed the fur?
10. How you act disgusted when I lick myself. Look, we both know the truth, you’re just jealous.

Now lay off me on some of these thing’s, We both know who’s boss here!!! You don’t see me picking up your poop do you ???

I learned to drive in Winnipeg and both my husband and I often maintain that some of the countries worst drivers frequent the roads there. My best friend Gin sent the following in the mail recently and I just had to repost it here.

*Manitoba Driver’s New 2007 Handbook*

1. Turn signals will give away your next move. A confident Manitoba driver avoids using them.
2. Under no circumstance should you maintain a safe distance between you and the car in front of you, because the space will be filled in by somebody else, putting you in an even more dangerous situation.
3. The faster you drive through a red light, the less of a chance you have of getting hit.
4. Warning! Never come to a complete stop at a stop sign. No one expects it and it will result in your being rear-ended.
5. Never get in the way of an older car that needs extensive bodywork, especially with B.C. or Sask, plates. With no fault insurance, the other operator has nothing to lose.
6. Braking is to be done as hard and late as possible to ensure that your ABS kicks in, giving a vigorous, foot massage as the brake pedal violently pulsates. For those of you without ABS, it’s a chance to strengthen your leg muscles.
7. Never pass on the left when you can pass on the right. It’s a good way to prepare other drivers entering the highway.
8. Speed limits are arbitrary figures; given only as a suggestion and are not enforceable in Manitoba during rush hour, especially in Winnipeg.
9. Just because you’re in the left lane and have no room to speed up or move over doesn’t mean that a Manitoban driver flashing his high beams behind you doesn’t think he can go faster in your spot.
10. Always brake and rubberneck when you see an accident or even someone changing a tire. This is seen as a sign of respect for the victim.
11. Learn to swerve abruptly without signalling. Manitoba is the home of high-speed slalom-driving; thanks to the Department of Public Works, which puts pot-holes in key locations to test drivers’ reflexes and keep them alert.
12. It is tradition in Manitoba to honk your horn at cars in front of you that do not move three milliseconds after the light turns green.
13. To avoid injury in the event of a collision or rollover, it is important to exit your vehicle thru the windshield right away. Wearing your seatbelt will only impede your hi-velocity escape from danger.
14. Remember that the goal of every Manitoban driver is to get ahead of the pack by whatever means necessary.
15. In Manitoba, ‘flipping the bird’ is considered a polite salute. This gesture should always be returned.

Happy driving!

He: The man in the moon is sick tonight.

She: What are you talking about?

He: Look at the moon, it’s all yellow and fuzzy.

She: And that makes the man on the moon sick?

He: Well, he’s either sick or he has a really bad case of jaundice.

She: I’m blogging this when we get home.

He: You can’t quote me. I’m not signing the consent forms.

She: You married me, that’s consent by default.

He: Whatever.

You are The High Priestess

Science, Wisdom, Knowledge, Education.

The High Priestess is the card of knowledge, instinctual, supernatural, secret knowledge. She holds scrolls of arcane information that she might, or might not reveal to you. The moon crown on her head as well as the crescent by her foot indicates her willingness to illuminate what you otherwise might not see, reveal the secrets you need to know. The High Priestess is also associated with the moon however and can also indicate change or fluctuation, particularly when it comes to your moods.

What Tarot Card are You?
Take the Test to Find Out.

Well, my name is at least. I plugged my name into the HowManyOfMe.com and found nada, nunca, zip.

HowManyOfMe.com

There are: 0 people with my name in the U.S.A. How many have your name?

It’s a US based site, but it was still interesting to see how my names stacked up. There are tens of thousands more individuals with my maiden name than my married name. Out of all the millions of US names in the database, there are only records of 870 people sharing my *new* last name. My first name isn’t even in their database I’m so statistically insignificant.

I always knew I was special.
