Friday Finally: IDYA!

Oh man, every-buddy, I’m sorry I haven’t posted all week. Momma hasn’t helped me at all, all week, and sometimes she didn’t even turn the computer on before she left for work, so I’m gonna have to get caught up with what everyone has been doing this week.

I spent all week tryin’ to get her to dress up for Anastasia’s dare, but every day Momma would say “Oh, JJ, I’m so busy today, we’ll have to do it later.” What do you think she was so busy with? These are her excuses: teaching, individual research project meetings with all of her students, the dentist, physical therapy, a film screening, a German conversation group, and general errands. I gotta tell you, though, I’m not sure I’m buying all of her excuses. I mean, she made banana-nut muffins last night, and she left them on the table for me, so I start licking them, and then she yelled at me and said I can’t have them! What is that? She finds the time to make muffins, and then says they’re not even for me?

Well, remember a ways back when I suggested that Momma become a catnip farmer instead of her so-called real job? Here’s Momma in the outfit I helped her put together:



Farmer Momma Joe!

I hope Anastasia is reading and laughing somewhere.

Jimmy Joe, it's wonderful to meet you! We're looking forward to being friends and have added you to our blogroll. And if your momma decides to be a full-time catnip farmer ... can the 15 of us come live with you and Coco?

Oh, we are so sorry to say our mom actually used to dress like dat and GO OUT IN PUBLIC! When da bean sisfurs were young (and still at home) she had a big garden...oh we were sooooo embarassed.

Hahahaha! I wish my Mommie would become a catnip farmer! Well, as long as your mom is all dressed up, she might as well plant a few rows of catnip. Right?

I think your Farmer Momma Joe is darling. I'm still trying to get my bean to dress up.
My bean is involved with this novel writing thing and it's about to make me nuts.

I'll be glad when December gets here. I'm working on my Santa list.

Hugs...G

Hi JJ, miss hearing from you and Farmer Momma Joe. How is the catnip farm going, amongst all the academic trivialities that your mom has taken on? The undergrads here are all having end-of-year-exams now and will be on a 3-month long holiday soon. So SS is having a quiet time to catch up on her thesis. We don't mention the word 'submission' around here - she goes on a spin, just like me after having a wiff of catnip!
