Yay! It's Tuesday.
Tuesdays are like my Mondays, since I don't work on Mondays. Except not really. On Monday apparently it was rough going at the office, because I got an email from my boss saying, "You sure picked the right day to be off."
Hello? Mondays are always the right day to be off.
And Tuesdays are always the right day to be random. Got the button? No? Well git it - and git random!
On Saturday it had snowed a fair bit, so I bundled up the whole family and we went out to shovel. We shovelled both walkways and both driveways (front and back). We even shovelled the crabby neighbours' driveway (something I wish I could do more often because, well, they're 85, but I usually have an impatient toddler with me).
Then on Sunday Mother Nature did this:
What a bitch.
I should probably pay more attention to the weather forecast.
I kind of wish I had one of these, to freak out the neighbours for the hour-plus that I spent shovelling snow. But only because they all own snowblowers and are laughing at me anyway.
Can somebody explain what the happy crappy THIS is? It looks like a site that scrapes everyones' feed and replaces a few words (and don't think I wasn't amused that the "cell phone" in my post became "dungeon phone"), but I can't figure out why. There aren't any ads on it or anything. Fame and fortune...?
(If it's a virus delivery system, I'm awfully sorry. But at least we're all going down together?)
Do you think the guy in this pic looks smug because he thinks he looks hawt, or because the pyrex plug is deforming his lips?
I'm finding MMO gaming frustrating lately because I just don't have the hours to dedicate to it that I once did. I love to team with people, but they're not always tolerant of my short timelines or that I have to bugger off because my kid woke up from his nap.
And before you ask, yes, there are groups of like-minded parents who game. They're just really irritating to team with. They never have any time and they're always going afk because of their kids.
Everybody already seen Sleep Talkin' Man? Yes? Good, cause it's freakin' hilarious.
I showed it to hubby, who didn't think it was nearly as funny as I did. He did, however, give me a look of deep suspicion. Then I saw him checking the bedroom for tape recorders.
Because I'm trying to figure out a way to spend MORE time on the computer, on Friday I start my first 'two week' resolution: to enter a competition a day at 99designs.com. I realize it's not a very exciting resolution, blog-wise, but I promise to tell you if I win any.
Unless you expect me to share. Then, um...well, have I mentioned what a terrible graphic artist I am? Really, really awful. Nobody would ever pick my designs. Ever.
A note to the poor lost souls that Google brings here: No, I don't know what you should do for your girlfriend. No, I don't know what to do when your dog swallows an avocado pit either (other than freak out). I don't know how to get rid of a manipulative boyfriend other than the way I did (by punching him in the face). And the rest of you? Are fucking gross.
One day, when I feel like alienating ALL my readers, I'll actually post some of the sick things people google. Til then - there's just random Tuesday. Link up, y'all! And go forth, and visit thy neighbour.
Amen.

You're too right about Mother Nature.
That's a lot of snow.
http://iamharriet.blogspot.com/2010/01/random-haiti-stuff-whatcha-talkin-bout.html
We have had a 1/4 inch of snow this year! It is tough haha!
I need to check out the sleep talking man, but I am running late!
Have a great Tuesday.
I H-A-T-E snow! Nuff said.
Good luck with those resolutions. You've got quite a list going on. Would be awesome if you were able to complete them all. Happy RTT!
The ski hat looks warm! Freaky, but warm! We're the only ones on the block that don't have a snowblower, 'cause Ed likes to shovel. I say, GO FOR IT, Ed!
I can't get over the snow pic. That could be me (oh wait it already was...) Take the babe out sledding. There's not much else to do when it snows.
That's a lot of snow. Haven't seen that much myself in while.
Quite a piercing that guy has in your link. Yikes!
Holy Moly that's a shitload of snow! I started laughing out loud when I saw the ski mask, though, because I thought (for a second) I should get one for hubby for when and if Mother Nature decides to throw more snow our way and we have to shovel while the neighbors use their snowblowers. Might as well give them a reason to laugh (harder) (at him) at us. ;)
Never click to enlarge the "lip Window" photo... Mentally scarred...
So many things to say..
First: http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=38524388&ref=fp_feat_3 A less creepy alternative.
Second: We MMO & there are a few parents in our guild--we're nice to them. :) But we also play with them around 7-8, so I'm assuming that their children are in bed already? They don't afk a ton.
Third: The window into my lip would make me extremely self conscious. Maybe that's because I have a touch of crowding on my bottom teeth or because I'm obsessive about brushing and flossing...either way. Gross/ouch/whyyyy?
Fourth: I clicked on nothing just in case it was a virus lure...so not sure?
And finally: GOOD LUCK on your 99designs contests! You should post up some of what you submit here--I'd love to see it!
Oh, and PS: Please post your searches. My searches are starting to creep me out.
The lip window guy does look a little smug. I'm pretty sure it's a big fuck you to his parents. Pretty hideous.
Why does Mother Nature hate you?
I've never seen Sleep Talkin' Man. Thank you. It is hilarious.
Sorry, I used to be one of those AFK-ers, I would have to deal with the kids.
Ugh, your snow looks worse than mine, I wouldn't leave the house if I lived where you do.
Sorry about all the snow....sucks I hate shoveling! The chin window guy OMG so gross! I think I might have thrown up a little. Yikes!
Ahhh...my Tuesday is YOUR Monday. I always have Tuesdays off.
Our snow has completely melted away(and it didn't seem possible even a few weeks ago), and even though I hate shovelling, I think I still prefer the white stuff to looking at grey and brown mud.
I'm glad Mother Nature doesn't have it in for us like she does for you.We just have a dusting right now. That's some serious snow. That green hat thingy is awesomely bizarre.
The guy with the thing in his lip is just freaky. What's he going to look like when he's 50?
It snowed here last night. I had no idea if they forcasted it or not. I really need to pay more attention.
I use to game with hubby, but since having the kids I don't bother because it takes up too much time.
Have a great day!
And all these years I have been jealous of people that live where they get Snow!
What I wouldn't give for some snow like that. I moved South to get away from it but now, with kids, I would love for them to experience it. Not that we're prepared. They have no boots or snow pants, but I'd travel out and get them some, if only we had snow.
I'm curious about those sites as well. I get google alerts and will pull up my posts on another site. They usually link back to mine or to another page on theirs that looks just like mine..I don't get the purpose.
Have a great RTT
What MMO are you playing these days? I love Aion but it needs some more work before I can go further with it...so for now I'm back in FFXI and counting the days for both STO and FFXIV.
I don't know why I'm going to do this to you, but...
I AM SO HAPPY I LIVE IN FLORIDA! WOOT! FLOR-I-DA! FLOR-I-DA!
I'm done.
You have every right to flame me.
:-)
The fact that you can ol dude teeth through is lip is very very disturbing and I will be having bad dreams about it.
The "idiot" with the hole in his lower lip is totally gross!! I am now scarred for life...thank you very much!! I got the snow too but my driveway is so long that I have to have a snowplow man come and take care of it. 'Nuff said about that!
Have a great day
Hugs

EWW and no clue what the virus loading site that is probably was is, and I LOVE The sleep talking man although Kensei doesn't get it either. Mother Nature was not nice to you and I feel bad because well we haven't had any snow here..
I am so jealous of your snow!
I have been whining all winter about our lack of snow and what has it gotten me? Nothing! I'm moving in with you!
First off, that mask...awesome.
I don't have enough time for gaming either, which is why I only have a Wii. Though if my Tuesdays were really my Mondays, I might be able to eek out some time on Call of Duty.
Heh! It seems we're both tired of Mother Nature being so bitchy!
I totally hear ya on the MMO stuff, Boo.
And I just clicked enter and it linked up an old Wordless Wednesday post that my computer had autosaved the URL to. Go me.
We haven't gotten a drop, in fact, in an area that never experiences Spring, it's Spring in January here. CRAZY, it's usually cold and raining
wow, this was really random, even for a random post.
okay, that gum window thing? was freaking gross. what was that guy thinking? that he never wants to work anywhere other than a head shop or hot topic? jesus.
and that was some serious effing snow, right? even for canada? crazy.
sleep talking man? hilarious.
The kid with the lip window? I bet his mother couldn't be more proud.
You google searches are much more interesting than mine. Unless you are looking for dog dildos that work with your Kitchenaid stand mixer.
I never get any good google hits ever. I suck.
The ring makes him look smug. And like a dumbass.
That is way too much freakin' snow. I would have a heart attack.
I think you should get the cap becasue that would be freakin' hilarious.
Mother Nature shat white all over your place.
So. Did you shovel again?
I actually miss the snow this year. Weird, I know... but if I had that much... well I guess the snow is always whiter on the other side? ;)
Yeah, Mother Nature can suck it. I'm sick of her crap this year!
What the heck was that kid thinking?!?! Nobody wants to see his slober all catching under his teeth! *shudder*
And I'm sorry but that knit hat is THE BOMB! How awesome! I want to get one and make hubby wear it to bed. That is HAWT! :)
lol
PS... I saw that Sleep Talkin Man on tv the other day, so thats the only reason I know what it is. HILAR!
Wow, that's a lot of snow! What a sweetie to do your neighbors driveway after your own. Good thing you didn't wear that mask because you might have caused them to have heart attacks!
For the first time I consider myself lucky to be a computer ignoramus...cuz I don't even wanna know how find out what google searches are being linked to my blog. I do wonder about a certain non-english speaking 'person' who leaves ridiculous comments.
Oh how I love random.
Is there really anyone out there who likes to work on Monday? I doubt it.
I'm not sure what to say about the dude with the window in his lip, other than Wow, just Wow.
I LOVE the ski mask! You'd look like one of the Ood! And you're one of the only bloggers I know who is likely to get that reference.
Okay could you send some of that our way, since the Olympics are starting soon and BC is about as green as it's been in a long time during the month. So embarassing!
Loved your post. Love reading you.
People do google some strange things. I think I'd like to buy a dungeon phone.
That hat is Awe and then Some. I will now get my MIL on the task of making one for her beloved son. Whee, screw the neighbors!
And the words "lip" and "window" should never be used in the same sentence.

That guy looks like such a Plonker in his green knitted tea-cosy and geeky spex
I'm totally curious what google things bring people here... :P
Oh well!
OMG, Google, I KNOW.
I actually went back and changed an old post of mine, because the only people Googling what they were to get to a post about me playing on the playground with my sons had to be pedophiles. It was creepy.
I would say that site was someone using others' feeds so he or she can claim to have a blog and therefore get into a paid post program or some other kind of advertising program. However, like you said, there's not a single ad on there so your guess is as good as mine. Maybe someone was just really bored one day and did it just to see if he could.
That ski mask is adorable. So homey!
And the lip window thing. I just don't know. I would bet a million dollars that nobody wants to have sex with that guy.
That much snow should not be allowed!! I shiver at the thought.
You need to spend less time on the internet, if for no other reason than I would like to read a whole post without having to stop every few seconds to click away to figure out what you're talking about. I say that with love.
I would read that post. If we can't laugh at the basest urges of our species, what can we laugh at, right?
We had that much snow last week. And then it rained a lot.
Ack to the lip window. Ack.
Sorta curious about the google search terms that find your site, but maybe not...
Happy Tuesday.
Dude! There's a big flashing button on my computer that says "ALERT! ALERT! HUGE ASS VIRUS ALERT!"
What did you give me?
Kidding. Happy Tuesday. Except for the snow.
Those googlisms are very scary and I wonder if I should change the title of my blog, and then I don't. I LOVE my blog title, so I just hope people pass me by not having the material they were hoping for.
My crocuses are blooming.
heehee, you said yall!
That ski mask may be the best thing I've ever seen.
And that is saying something.
I just did my first random tuesday post! Love your site!
Mother nature is a bitch. Father time is a pimp. I really need to get random one of these weeks.....
Happy belated RTT, sorry I missed out on all the fun, I was guess where?? dentist. :(
Our snow all melted the other day... it's still only January. I'm sure that whore will dump on us again.
You and me both with the sick google searches. What the fuck are people thinking when they type that shit in?
That mask is awesome, if I didn't live in FL, I'd get one for myself. Sorry about the snow. Not a good time to tell you I'm wearing shorts today, is it?
STM is priceless - thanks for sharing that one.
You sooo need one of those masks! Awesome!
All I could think when I saw that Pyrex lip insert how much that kid resembles a front-loading clothes washer...
I missed RTT this week and I'm bummed, but only 4 more days and we can play again.
That ski mask made me guffaw, love it. I think you'd look great in it.
LOL on Mrs C -- front loading washer hahahahahaha
Kind of makes my kids look normal, and I like that.
Have a great weekend!
YAY for snow...yeah...NOT!!! I am snowed in - 30 inches outside my door...hopefully it will get me out of work on Monday and Tuesday - at the very least!!
