[OT] But Hilarious - Frazzled Mom sells Pokemon cards on ebay

Totally OT, but other than being about barekittens rather than cats, this is
*so* an RPCA story.

A quick summary: A mom's kids snuck some pokemon cards into her shopping
trolley. Since they don't deserve the cards, she's selling them on e-bay.
But the way she writes the story is *hilarious*

If you're paddling upstream in a canoe and a wheel falls off, how many
pancakes can you fit in a doghouse? None, icecream doesn't have bones.

As I post this, 44 bids, and it's up to $103!!!!!! I certainly hope she gets
enough to pay her next grocery bill!

I love this line: "I remove... and a can of cat food (we don't even have a
cat!)." Maybe that was a big HINT from one of the kids.

She has the same gift Erma Bombeck had for relating motherhood in an
extremely
funny way, in a way all us moms can relate to. I used to go grocery
shopping
with my LDS friend who eventually had nine children; at the time she
only had
6 so far. It was quite like the description, even though the children
were very well-
mannered nearly all the time.

Have you read her blog yet? I'm in the process and she has me
chuckling. If you're interested her blog is at: http://www.mom2my6pack.blogspot.com/
She's receiving a lot of attention from all over the world and rather
bemused by it all.

Does that make you glad you've only got one? Well two if you include Joel.

The winning bid was $142.51! Good for her! Thanks for steering me to this,
Yowie! I thoroughly enjoyed reading it.

Thousands of years ago, cats were worshipped as gods. Cats have never
forgotten this.

worst, its Fluffy, Shmogg, Cary & Joel. :-)

ROTFL! OMG, she\\\'s a great writer. Funniest thing I\\\'ve read in ages
--
she should be writing for a living. The comparisons to Erma Bombeck\\\'s
writing are right on target.
