Tree blocking my path on the trail today and at first I thought it was knocked down in a storm (even though its been sunny and clear here recently). I got off my bike to move the tree (don’t know what I was thinking – its a tree) and realized it had been chopped down by beavers!!!! I’m sorry story for every having doubted you!

They are all majestic during the day however at night they become the creepiest thing ever. Look at this one – just standing in my driveway, staring at my house.

And these two in the backyard. I think I am gonna have nightmares…

Did you know deer are opportunistic carnivores – that means if they get the chance they will eat your face

We found the “exotic meat” section at Marianos and I couldn’t pass by without purchasing something. We skipped on the Bison and Ostrich because those are barely exotic anymore. I’ve had Alligator before so passed on that. But then, there, down at the bottom…

Camel Meat!!!!
We haven’t tried it yet but we found a pretty good recipe for camel meatballs so we are probably going to do that. And before you comment, I don’t actually know if its hump meat, but its fun to say it is.
Here is a gif to explain the different types of camel…so you know what you are eating of course!

Check out the awesome gold bib on the guy in the background. That’s a man who is serious about his meals!!

People describe the Burmese breed as “dog-like” and I used to think this meant that they were loyal, craved human companionship, and would follow you around. Mostly that is true. But it also means the bad parts of dogs – begging, misbehavior, and destruction.
Don’t get me wrong, I think Brutus is a great kitty and I wouldn’t change anything (well except maybe getting 2 kittens) but I am often surprised at what a devious little kitten he is.
We recently switched to silicone dishes cause I thought they looked nicer and I wanted a matching set of cat bowls. Brutus soon realized that he could carry these bowls around so when he was finished eating, if he was still hungry (which is every time) he would carry the bowl into the kitchen and drop it off for a refill.
He also constantly goes on the counter (not allowed in our house) and will stay up then until you physically walk over and remove him. Then he jumps down and flops on his side showing his belly in an attempt to beg forgiveness. But he isn’t really sorry. If you leave again, he’s back up on the counter.
Today I went out to run some errands (getting kitty food of all things) and came home to find an empty food bowl and an apparently very “hangry” cat.

Yup – you are seeing that right – he chewed through his food bowl like a dog. This was not some nibbling on one side – this is total destruction of the bowl!
Not only that but I dropped off the dry food at the bottom of the stairs then left to take my brother to the airport. When I returned I noticed the 5.5 lb bag of cat food had been dragged across the floor.
Me: did you move the cat food?
The Other: No, it was Brutus.
Me: *disbelief* he dragged it?
The Other: yea
Me: its a 6lb bag of food, he is a 10lb cat!
I took the bag upstairs and halfway up I notice cat food pellets on the ground. I look at the bag and not only had Brutus dragged the bag, but he had chewed through it to get to the food. On several sides.

*sigh*

Lee spotted this on the drive home, so we stopped in to take a look. 🙂

During the recent thunderstorms my clock fell off the wall. It wasn’t damaged, but the pin holding it was tiny so rather then get the picture hanging hooks and hammer at 10:30pm we decided to wait until morning. I put the clock on the floor.
When I woke up I found that during the night someone had chewed the hands of the clock and bent them out of shape. The Other and I were sleeping so that leaves 4 suspects.

I don’t know which cat did it, but I have my suspicions…

I get pulled into a lot of meetings – some are necessary, some are productive, but most are just people passing the blame or telling each other how awesome you are. I found these while cleaning up over the weekend – I’ll let you guess which type of meeting these are from. Names have been changed to protect the “innocent”.
