Rabbitch

Naw. Cowboys may be annoying to listen to, but the ones in those videos are eye candy. And really, if you just tell them to shut up and get naked, you should be fine.
 

Dude! no new toothbrush? after all that work plus the complementary red-rubber clown nose feeling? the bastards!
Hey, that Keith Urban dude, we were watching 'something' he came on, not only is the dude easy on the eye but the few licks he played on his guitar were decent. Huh. I'll get to work on that special Birthday package for you right away.
Oh, I know this sounds fiddly but a friend told me...if you 'tie' the bait onto the trap the ratses won't have such an easy time of snagging and getting away with it....seriously, I know someone who has done this after having several traps raided with no lingering rat-parts. It works. fiddly,yes,but it works.
I do loves me a rubbermaid bin.
 

You may be a packrat, but you are not an obsessive-compulsive accumulator of whatever it is. That's part of the difference.
 

Yeah Keith Urban used to be on my Hump Island but when Nicole Kidman threw a rope around his dinghy and hauled him in, I decided hands-off. She's one *them* you know, and anyone who was married to Tom Cruise and somehow escaped with all her parts intact is tough. I'm afraid of her. Besides, have you noticed how pale and clear she's been lately? She is undead. Be careful, bunnie.
 

"I may even be borderline filthy and a total packrat if the truth be told" .....You just described my house!

McGraw - I think you mean Tim McGraw and he could convert me to country on any given day. I'd even listen to his music!

jennifleury - "Hump Island" - hahahahahahahahahahaha.....!!!!! I'm going to steal that one! I think secretly Tom Cruise might actually be a vampire, because Katie is looking rather translucent these days, too. Hmm...maybe they're "daywalkers"?

I'm in a strange mood today. Might be the Taboo Naughty and Nice Show I went to last night. There are only so many naughty toys one can look at in an hour. And just why are the insurance people at ALL of these trade shows? I'm there to see booty, not how I can plan for my future. Just kidding, I didn't see any booty. Just pole dancing.
 

When I'm done with Keith Urban I'll send him to your house.... don't blame me if he seems a bit tired and weak! :) Keep an eye out for Alan Jackson too, he's pretty easy on the eyes. And hey, maybe one of them would be able to roust out your ratmates!
 

Wish my dentist had TV's in the ceiling. And cable. Then maybe I could get my fill of Trace Adkins.
And I'm kinda in the same boat as you, ie. containerizing the stash. DH partitioned off half the garage and declaired that what was in the bedroom could go out there. Trouble is the new 'workroom' is a quarter the size of bedroom.
Wish me luck.
 

Not even a stinkin' toothbrush - what a gyp.
 

Well, you can't have Trace Adkins...he's mine!
 

Um, are you still feeling the effects of that giggle gas the dentist gave you?
 

Whoa there, Tonto, on suggesting that a stay-home parent should keep a cleaner house than a 'working' parent. I have many jobs - I just don't get paid, nor does society grant me any respect or fair treatment, as do the time clock tickers.

Still, I forgive you because you are my rabbitch and, poor dear, you have rats. On the rats, psst, before you go whoring yourself out to wallyworld - THEY LIKE PLASTIC. Yes, indeed, our little naked tailed friends down in the barn have chewed THROUGH a plastic trash can and proceeded through the grain sack onto the corn. Sheesh! On the other hand, maybe if you put the trap, laced with a peanut butter coated with some deadly chem, INTO the tote, you could have some real cheap thrills and revenge to boot.
 

I'd like a chance at Trace Adkins too. And Kenny Chesney please.

Have you been messing with the word verification? I just got fvucrk... lol
 

Good luck with the company. Hope you're feeling better fast.
 

Still celebrating Delurking week. Delurking to commiserate with you on the no-new-toothbrush, daytime TeeVee & the rat debacle.

Anyway, you're blog is a regular read.
 

Even better than TV on the ceiling (which my dentist also installed!) is an iPod and Showtunes! I didn't realize that on nitrous oxide in the middle of a root canal that I was singing "La Vie Boheme" from Rent at the top of my lungs! Needless to say, the office staff applauded when I came to! :=)
(I still think George Strait looks fabulous in those tight assed jeans of his!)
 

Rat bastards....here's hoping you get rid of them soon. My heart goes out to you on the dentist thing. My old dentist used to let me pick a movie to watch on the ceiling, with headphones so I didn't have to hear anything...icky. Then she'd aske me questions. Over and over. And when I finally gave up and took off the damned headphones, she'd ask (quite puzzled) "Oh, don't you want to watch the movie?" Nah....I'm good. Thinking good healing thoughts for your teeth...and ugly thoughts for your rat.
 

i know you don't normally "listen" to country music, but there's a song that is appropriate to these sentiments: "save a horse, ride a cowboy." mmmmmmmmm yes.

and i have to agree with you, keith urban = slurp. maybe nicole will break up with him anyway!
 

Yeah, I've seen those "clean your house shows". It always astonishes me. Yup, I have lots of junk, but it's not GARBAGE. Those people have empty dog food tins, take out boxes and margarine tubs lying all over their house! If they just TOOK THE GARBAGE OUT the place might be semi-demi-habitable. As it is, it usually looks like a garbage dump! Because it IS.
 

oooh "how clean is your house" and "you are what you eat"!!!!
Isn't daytime TV a total delight/gross-out?!?
 

"Don't You Maybe Think That All The Potato Chips Are What Made Your Ass So Big?"

LOL - I needed this giggle today!
 

All those "home makeover" and "person makeover" shows make me sick. They do nothing but make you feel guilty about actually living in your house and body. Women aren't supposed to look like twelve year old boys or crack whores, and houses are supposed to be lived in and not models for magazine covers. Mine is clean enough to be sanitary and messy enough to be comfortable. As for the state of my bod, if people don't like it they don't have to look, is what I say. Don't let 'em get to you, Rabbitch!!
 

I see no one has mentioned the winner of "Hunk of the Month" at my house--Josh Turner. And his voice will melt the cartilage in your knees. I hope you get to see him at your next appointment.
 

...Canada's Worst Handyman! Man, why did nobody tell me about this? It relieves the pain a whole lot (trust me on this one) to watch some total boob try to cut an entire floor's worth of vinyl covering, make a small cut and then just rip (he had enough left for a placemat, really)...

Laughed my ass of when I saw your total boob reference. I've been called many things but never a total boob before. Thanks for the chuckle. I hope you're able to watch the show in re-runs. You can also visit my site if you want to learn more about the show. Happy Renos! Darryl
