Visitor from the North! (Better than Santa Claus!)

Do you recognize that rug? It's ours.  Do you recognize that dog? IT'S SOPHIE BRADOR!

We did not send her our rug. SHE CAME TO US!  She is taking her ape on a North American adventure and she stopped in Deli Where to visit us!

Otis and Edgrr put on their best finery (ties!) and picked up S&S at her hotel.  She rode in our car and didn't even complain when Ed barfed in the car!

Someone was kind of of ubernaughty and had to hang out in his crate.

But someone was kind of sweet on Miss Sophie and slept cheek to cheek with her.

And here we are waiting for Sophie's ape who is in the washroom.  You can also see our buds Tuchuck, Narra, et. al's ape hanging out on the floor.  Sometimes he wishes he was a dog, we think. We'd make him part of our pack for sure.

And here is Sophie's ape tickling Otis with her toes!  He loved it!  (She also fed him potatoes.  He loved that too.  But then she commented on his gas.  Nobody loved his gas.)  But one dog loved Sophie the MOST.

Ethel Jean, Girl Power Queen!  I don't always like other girls but I loved Sophie!  We hung out and ignored each other and were otherwise beautiful, wonderful girls.  Not like those rambunctious boys.  In fact you will notice that I have handed down the SHOUTY SHOUTY mantle to my brudder Ed because I am a MATURE LADY LIKE SOPHIE. (OK, a little shouty.)

We are both so beautiful you should probably not look at our pictures for too long lest you be blinded, like looking into the sun.

 And some boys made fools of themselves panting over Sophie and were otherwise not befitting of their bowtie finery.  (There is some embarrassing video that may be leaked to the media later).

But there was no humpery for the girls.  We had scintillating conversation.

And we even chatted about that Doofus Tan Torkelson. (We can't WAIT for him to get a new brudder to pester).

Thanks for visiting us and have a great trip Sophie!  (This is her wink to me.  We're totally going to sneak out and go on a girls' road trip.  First stop? Picking up Randi the Labnewf for more GRRRRRL POWER.)

Ethel Speaks!

If you are a regular reader if this blog you have probably noticed an annoying abundance of dude-itude.  That's because these boys are attention hogs who like to MUG for the camera.

While I, a strong and independent woman, like to hang out by myself, usually at the top of the hill.

So I thought I'd put on some tunes and SMARTEN THIS BLOG UP with a little LADYTUDE.

STICKING MY TONGUE OUT at authority (and bratty brudders.)

Teaching Edgrr how to ROCK OUT, riot grrrl style.

Bonding with MY WUBBA.

And generally proving the maxim, anything boys can do GIRLS ARE DOING BETTER.

As evidence, I'm known as "the good one" IN SPITE of the fact that in the last few weeks I have figured out how to get out the back door and I escaped to find my ma ape AND I stole meats off the counter and ate until I got INDIGESTION in the MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT.  GRRRRRRRLS RULE!  BOYS DROOOOOOOL.

Boys Drool (Ethel ROOOLS)

This is ETHEL and I am SO OVER the testosteroney baloney at my house. TOO MANY BOY COOTIES. I shall demonstrate.

Boys eat like filthy messy uncouth hogs like this:

Or this.

Girls eat all civilized-like.

Boys play dumb foolish games like this.

And do foolish macho poses like this.

Girls do awesome feats of athletic prowess like this.

Wouldn't YOU rather be a girl? This is why I will be enjoying some MARCH MADNESS but not stupid boys but GIRLS!! Because the Nebraska Cornhuskers are seeded #1 in the Midwest bracket of their tourney! GO BIG RED! We'll show those boys a thing or two about b-ball!
