Mackgurl's Musings

  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...

Hola... Sigh - I'm writing to you today from jail, prison, lock up, the slammer, the clink...ok so you may know it by any of these names. For me, I call it... THE CAGE. It's where you get sent when you do ba- err stuff the people would rather you not to do...and get caught (smile). The severity of the infraction or the recurrence of such infractions determines your sentence length.  Hmm, guess that's how it works for people, too eh? Except for one key diferencia... I don't get a lawyer or a trial. Nope. No jury of my peers. Guilty and...  THE CAGE. Mi Mug Shot So what was the charge this time? Well, mi gente already know how much I like to eat. My food, your food, people food, whatever. As long as it's food and I like it, I want to eat it. Side-note: There's nothing better than people food 😛 So, mi persona gave me something he called a candy cane. Have you had this? Aye Dios Mio!It was sooooooo good! First, he let me sample it. He told me not to bite it but a ...

  Hola! I'm not going to ask you that silly ques-okay so I AM going to ask... Did you miss your Oscar favorito? Claro! How could you not? Have you been enjoying the summer? It's been soooooo hot but I don't mind, usually - except for the times when I'm thirsty. Like the otra day. I was outside enjoying some time in the sun -  mi familia was outside making delicious meat treats on the cooking box. And of course they had to share some with their precious Oscar:). Ohh they were sooooo good! They made sure I had plenty all to myself! Little while later, mi familia got too hot so they went into the casa. Well, it was very hot...even I was a bit warm so I went in, too. I thought I'd go get a drink of water to cool down. Besides, all those delicious meat treats made me thirsty. So I go into the room to get mi agua. As I'm walking to my bowl, I notice mi familia laying on the comfy chair drinking icy cold drinks. This made me even MORE thirsty so now I'm RUNNING to ...

Hola mis amores! How was your day? Mine was good...I got to see some more of my familia. Nope they didn't come to visit. And no we didn't video chat. WE went to see them. That's right! ROAD TRIP! So much fun when we get away from home for a little while. This was especially fun because it was to see familia and mi familia loves me. Plus, they spoil me (smile). They know that I am royalty so, they treat me like a Prince. Treats, treats and more treats (YUMMY!) Everyone just loves me being around so much - well almost everyone (👀). One family member isn't in love with me. I know, it is quite shocking, no? Why does she not love or even like Oscar? Well, as usual it is no fault of mine. I've been a victim of a character assassination! No, really - permitame to explain.  Some time ago, mi familia and I went on this same familia visiting trip.  It was so much fun and everyone loved being around me and they all thought I was so cute (smile). This one persona thought I was...

  Hola! Que pasa? Me? Well as you can tell, the whole " I need a bano" incident just fine. Of course, I wasn't really concerned (paws crossed). As I said, my people love me. How could they not? I'm so darned cute!!!  Oh and it's not just them who think I'm so loveable. Every time they have people over, they instantly fall in love. Are you laughing at me? You don't believe me? Okay so let me tell you something...today, there were some people at my house. They were doing the typical people-y stuff...laughing, EATING...But this time they didn't actually COOK dinner. I know, right? Surprised me, too. No, instead they went out for dinner.  I can almost hear some of you saying "what does that have to do with them loving you, Oscar?" Un momentito, por favor. I'm getting to that part right now. When the people, MY people, returned to the house they did not come empty handed. They thought of yours truly even while they were out to dinner.  So the...

  Hola!! Did you miss me? I already know that you did. How could you not miss Oscar? (smile) Well you will be happy to hear that I survived my chip binge without punishment!!! Isn't that great?! In fact, they said not a word about it at all. Kinda weird to be honest. Part of me wonders if this calm, non-reaction is because I am just this truly beloved or if this is simply the calm before the storm? It has to be because I am beloved - after all, it's been weeks since that happened. Or...are they just waiting on me to do something else? Something worse then devouring those sinfully delicious chips?? No es importa - my weekend was great! My helpers had extra people over. I'm not sure why but it seemed like a fiesta! Lots of foods - even meat on the hot box. I think I heard them call it an EGG...doesn't look like an EGG to me. Whatever it's called, it puts that wonderful taste into the pork chops and chicken so nice and smokey!! Oh yeah they had some lettuce but what do...

  Hello, how are you? Please allow me to introduce myself. My name is Oscar. Before I get into my story, let me make sure you know how to say my name correctly. As I said, my name is Oscar but it is pronounced Osk-ar. My family -yes, I permit them t get away with mispronouncing my name. But that's just because they love me so much. To be honest, they call me many cute names...I must admit "Oskey" is one of my faves. One of my family members calls me "Owee" LOL. My family is really great. All my needs are met. They're basically like my helpers, or friends -except when they get on my nerves. Like those times one of them stays in the bathroom for like TWENTY MINUTES!!! I mean really, others need to go too. Now, they don't speak my language but somehow we understand each other. Sort of like that look that you get from your Mama. The one that says "No...you better not...try me..." So I give them a look and they come do what I need. Open the door for...
