Friday Funnies

Bear was having a clingy day and climbed up on my chest while I was exercising so, I decided to snap a close-up; it wasn’t until I looked at it later that I noticed the “dent” in his fur where I had petted him. (I tracked him down to make sure that his head was really okay and it’s fine.)

Friday Funnies

Commercials frequently make me say “What the fox?” – especially perfume/cologne commercials. However, there are those that make me happy and this is one of them.

Here’s hoping that one of the things that makes me happy can also bring a little happy to you! (Side note: the official video for Call Me Maybe is also good for a few laughs.)

We have had several lady beetles and stink bugs get into our house over the past couple of months – much to the cats delight. (Note: I have always called them lady bugs but now that I work for an entomologist, I have learned that the correct term is lady beetle.๐Ÿž) Recently, the cats kept staring at the kitchen cabinet; I assumed there was a bug but I couldn’t find anything. Finally, Kenn got involved with the search. It turned out that there was no bug – there was a bat in cabinet. This is the second time we’ve had a bat in the cabinet. In both instances, the bat has been removed and released outside. Now to figure out how they keep getting in!

Several years ago I became the proud owner of a set of cat butt magnets which still decorate my fridge until this day. Thanks to a random Amazon recommendation, I found the superhero cat butt magnets shown above in my Christmas stocking. I think they are hysterical; the Hulk and Iron Man are my particular favorites. I also have no idea why Batman is the sole DC representative amongst this collection of Marvel superheroes.๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธOur fridge is quite… eclectic.

My part-time job is at an agricultural center. Our work trucks can really take a beating because when we say we’re “in the field”, it’s a literal field (or grove, or orchard). I had to laugh earlier this week when I noticed at least two of the trucks have grass growing in their grills.๐Ÿ˜‚ To paraphrase Ian Malcolm in Jurassic Park, “life found a way”.

Marsha, Marsha, Marsha

Marsha’s Vineyard, not to be confused with the better known Martha’s Vineyard. (What a difference one letter can make.๐Ÿ˜‚) We came across this gem a few years ago on our way to Atlanta to purchase a gift from Ikea. ($200+ shipping? No thanks!) There are a couple of locations on the interstate where traffic always backs up so we decided to take back roads for a bit and there it was… Marsha’s Vineyard. I found this absolutely hysterical – complete with tears of laughter running down my cheeks. Kenn not so much; I think he thought the Christmas stress was getting to me. Oh well, hopefully someone else out there will find this amusing too. Happy Friday!
