Hard Times

 Ah the joys of nature, of the wild...Nature is so beautiful and picturesque. All the animals just running about playing and having a good time right? At least that's what you've been told, lead to believe, right? So those stories or those cartoons where the animals are like gangs or just mean must be just made up? Pure fiction, right? WRONG! They are true! Some of us animals are just plain mean! So mean it would make you humans blush, smh...

Don't believe me? Ok well this is a picture of me last year



Don't I look cute? But even more than that, don't I look happy, care-free? Not a care or a worry in the world. Ahh, those were the days. I didn't realize how good I had it Roaming freely, playing with friends, chilling by the lake. Eating and drinking  - you know ust living the dream. Well, that dream became a nightmare when THEY showed up UGH.  Some new kids moved in and yeah ok at first it was fun. They were the cool ones - had been on the otherside of the lake. Boasted about seeing the world - afterall they'd BEEN TO THE OTHERSIDE OF THE LAKE!! Oh and they regularly played dodge-car-truck/SUV/bus(I never played that)...So when they let me join their group, I was geeked!

One day they said we were playing a new game. They called it HIDE-N-GO GET IT. One of them would go hide a big green apple. Whoever found got to eat it! Yummy! So Big Buck goes off to hide the  coveted treat, comes back and whispers "hide-n-go get it'. No one moves. Then he yells it and off we went! Running and looking for the big apple. Suddenly, I realized I was all alone.Where did everyone go? Why'd they stop looking? Didn't they want the apple? Maybe they were full? Allergic? Or maybe they were just being nice to the new guy? Awww

And then I heard a sound - one that will stay with me forever - however long that is. CRACK! Soooo lound that I froze. Looked but didn't see anyone or anything. Then BOOM! That's when I felt this pain, strong and throbbin. I wanted to run but I was frozen. What happened? Why? Who?Then I remembered a story my DeerPa told me about tools that sounded really loud and would stop you cold. And I was definitely, stopped cold. Right here, just like this.

Moral of the story - don't believe those stories about all animals playing and roming through the forest. Some of them, those animals are just plain mean! Old Buck set me up. Why, who knows! I no I don't. 

Well if you'll excuse me, I'm gong to go back to pretending to be ahem UNALIVE so I ca jump ad run when these people, the ones with the BOOM tools least expect it!

Podcast #1

Yay! I've finally figured out how to get the recordings to show up on my blog. So this one is a actually a test recording. But I'm playing around here, so don't expect radio quality...at least not yet 😜 This first one is a recording of a post currently up on my blog titled Hostage Negotiations. May just add the recorded versions for those who'd rather listen than read. Plus, this new app has some pretty nifty features that I cannot wait to try out! Hostage podcast Peace, Mackgurl

Being Strong Is Not for the Weak

Sometimes you may get tired and fed up. I mean come on, life has a way of testing you…and I mean way worse than any pop quiz you might have had. Sometimes the test starts small. Broke a nail after a fresh manicure? Hit your shin on the corner of the bed? (ouch). Then maybe it ramps up to you dropping your brand new cell phone face down on the pavement…while trying to put on the screen protector. Ugh! That sucks, right? Then there are household bills...sure you have some, right?  Yeah, they eat away a good chunk of your paycheck but you’re managing. Then a major appliance dies…then some shingles fall off your roof.. Sucks but ok. It seems like one thing after another after another. Sigh... but somehow you’re standing strong and making do, holding on. And then…car issues start happening…flat tires, brakes need replacing and then transmission blows! What?!! But you’ve got to be strong right? You’re an adult and you can and have to deal with these things. You can manage, right? Yeah? So w

Oscar Chronicles - All By Myself

  Hola, mis amigos. I'm not going to ask if you missed me because - well, I already know you did. But more than that, I'm not going to ask because I'm sad, angry and hungry. Okay, perhaps I'm always interested in some snacks...Anyway, your Oscar is sad. Why? Is because a couple of weeks ago mi persona favorito decided to remodel his room. No really! He took all of the things out of the room - even my bed! At first I was angry thinking that he was kicking me out! He even took down his posters and emptied his closet! But then I started seeing him bringing some stuff back. Several pairs of his zapatos, some shirts and chaquetas. Some things he even put in the basura! Things that were too small or too old - you know how they do, right? So yes,  A MAJOR CLEANING. His room was like SUPER CLEAN.  He and his Papa also bought in new stuff. New zapatos, shirts, pants. The new stuff he put into a new bag. Nice! Good storage. It even has wheels!! So he can move it around a lot easi
