ping Yowie
I went to EBAY just to see what a Yowie looked like and it is so cute...
I just saw a blue one. Hug Kyla "Granby" Must be the arms and legs thing, they all seemed to have longer ones. "tanadashoes" "Granby" Well, I went on EBAY and am bidding on my own Yowie. It is called Honeygum or something like that. They had several but it was the cutest. Tried to find one dressed in leather but no luck! LOL. Good luck. Mine is this cute little pear shaped thing with an open mouth and little arms and jumpy legs like a kangaroo. I love it. Pam S. who wants to meet the human one someday |

I was reading that one thread that got all out of sorts with me using a certain word, and I remember when my oldest daughter whas 2 she was throwing a temper tantrum and flailing herself on the floor screaming, etc, so I went into the kitchen, drew a glas of cool water and slowly poured it over her head, which snapped her out of it right away, no harm done. Then she got hugs and kisses from me. This was 39 years ago. Give the Yowlet a big hug from his Auntie Kyla..he is so adorable. Hug and thanks Kyla --who is so happy for all the people at the Gathering. They are having SO much fun. Ok. Back in 6th grade, that is, when I was 11, some boys teased me about my height (I was very tall even then) by calling me 'Sasquatch'. I didn't know what that word mean at the time, but knew it wasn't nice, and chased the boys (which I think is what they wanted to do - I didn't figure that sort of thing out till a bit later). Much later, I was told the tale and my confusion over the word 'Sasquatch' to my then boyfriend, who explained it was like Bigfoot, Yeti or our Bunyip. From that point on, one of his nicknames for me was "Bunyipkins". Love that. My Aussie ex called me a galah, and I always kind of liked that. Galahs are a largish pink & grey parrot. They tend to do really funny things, like do loop-de-loops whilst sitting on the telegraph wires, or just bob their heads till you laugh, that sort of thing. Real slap-stick humour birds, and whats more they seem to *know* its funny and keep doing it because you are laughing. And yes, thats the wild birds, flocks of which are often seen sitting in the overhead wires, or picking over freshly mown lawns for tasty grubs. Calling you a galah was telling you that you were being funny & silly in a slapstick sorta way. Its like calling someone a 'goose' - its a loving insult, IYSWIM.

Totally wierd kitty, she is anyhoo Kyla --wondering if Yowie still reads her 'pings' G Hi Yowie OT I don't ordinarily read pings to Yowie and the non-ISP server doesn't show me new posts in bold-type so just stumbled onto your MileHigh post. I made a mistake last time when you asked if any drive-in movies around here...I said none I knew of. Since then, discovered one last hold- out, up on 88th Avenue in Commerce City. Surprise! Colorado Blvd. north of I-25 is now a wall-to-wall nonstop mass of commercial till about 7th (the "stately old mansions" area...then starting at 8th, abandoned hospitals right and left...all of them except Rose Medical have moved out east to Aurora campuses, very near VA hospital off Colfax. WoW!! Nearby natives kept me awake last night having their own fireworks displays outside till about 4am (yawn). Still enjoying the heat lately, unlike Miami, it does cool off at night here. Yeah, it's been cooler here too, thankfully Ignore this if you like but if I were a "den mother" of your other ng and got the personal posts you do there "mother"would lock them all in their cages and abandon ship for something more r&r like rpca; and at least the regs in rpcc don't post to you in the same manner. LOL, you're right, most of them have been locked away in my killfile. I still have my monthly Den Mom bithrday duties to do, been doing it for 11 years now, I just posted one and he told me I was the best Den Mom ever G I love rpca and Mosey loves rpcc and we both have a lot of fun in these groups of nice hoomins and cats in rpcc, G As they say, life's too short....eat dessert first. Actually, I think that's what Garfield says.... Just had a Twinkie, with a latte, howzat? All the kitties are meatloafing and sleeping right now. |
