Or try the national body challenge instead.
"Yeah right. What is that supposed to be anyways? Two fleas in a recliner?"
Wow, that is SCARY. I'll give you a clue... 'YOU CAN DO IT!'
"Hmm, which Adam Sandler movie was that from?"
NO. Exercise related.
"Eliza Leigh, were you watching infomercials while I was at work last night? Eliza?"

Updates and Experiements

Hola minions!
Today I made my humanoid put some new gadgets on here. iLike.
"Pandora is still my favorite."
Yes I know but this is my blog and if I want you to waste two hours online changing the layout well that's my prerogative.
"Eliza you are sounding more cranky than usual. Coming off a sugar high perhaps?"
I'm SORRY. It's frustrating watching you add a GAZILLION songs and then a glitch erase EVERYTHING so we had to start all over again. Can I have a piece of chocolate to calm me down.
"No chocolate. Chew on this- spearmint."
Are you giving me a hint.
"Eliza, you are an ant, don't worry about tooth decay."
True, so check out our new gadget and tell us what you think.
"I think it's a tease, hear a piece of a song but not the full thing err..."

Now human this is a picture!
"I stumbled across this blog recently and love the pictures on here. The squirrel from toady's post is so cool."
And you can't even DRAW me good. I picked the wrong human.

Anything Chocolate

"Did you know that chocolate cake and lays potato chips are an amazing combination? Try it."
I suppose anything with chocolate cake tastes amazing to you.
"True."
Especially when it is 5 in the morning.
"Very true."

Anything Chocolate

Did you know that Target has their own brand of chocolate? It's called Chockie-
"Choxie"
-and delish! We-
"YOU"
-had the dark chocolate espresso truffle bar it was fabulous.
"For those not to keen on dark chocolate it doesn't taste that much darker than milk chocolate."
Well you like 86% so let me be the judge of that."
"70%."
What?
"I like around 70% higher if there is extra flavors in it. Orange, espresso beans, etc."
Give it a try there's also a coupon in the box for other decadent treats.
"There was? Oops."

Drive By Pictures

It snowed for the first time here on Sunday night!
"Yikes! That's too soon."
Here's a few snaps driving through a nearby town.
"Lynn, MA."
Well, now they can't guess. Thanks. Thanks a lot.
"You're welcome."





& my favorite


All were taken driving rather erratically.
"Except for the picture of the fence."
Duh.

Whoo hoo!!
"Don't get too excited Eliza, it's for a pilot. Don't mean a thing."
Doom and Gloom!

Word of the Week

HUGGER-MUGGER

Hmm, that one sounds familiar.
"Should, since it describes you completely.
Originally known for secrecy (your true location must be to keep those rabid scientists at bay) and now it's more commonly known for disorder and confusion (for everything you do and leave in your wake) about sums you up."
Gosh, that's so sweet of you really. Thanks, I'd reciprocate- hmm let me see, your brain is confused & disordered and you location should be kept secret so no one will come and lock you away. How was that?
"I say Good Night!"

Anything Chocolate

Okay. Here's my new little segment. Any chocolate news that I find worthy you'll hear about it here.
So today is a lovely, decadent recipe- made with chocolate of course!
White Chocolate Mint and Caramel Parfait
Check it out at the NYTimes. Human can we make that today? Please?
Human wake up! Don't slip into a chocolate coma- not again...
"Even more exciting was the Third Annual Chocolate Festival in Bath."
Oh so you are alive. Why do you say it like you were there. We're talking about Bath in the UK right?
"Right. And I was there- in spirit. I ate my Dark Chocolate Orange flavored Lindt bar in honor of the special occasion."
Hmm, sometimes I wonder who grew up in the toxic dump...

Drive By Picture

I'm thirsty.
"Eliza go back to bed."
Oh come on! You're up drinking tea and soda and you won't share.
Mean. Cruel.
"Sick."
Ha, you can't keep hoarding all the Popsicles with that excuse anymore.
"Hmm, well I had a relapse. Now if you are staying be quiet. I'm watching Return to Treasure Island on YouTube."
Aye!

Peabody/Salem Park

We were out exploring and taking pictures with our new cybershot today.
"Well, new for us."
Precisely and my human decided to look for another park.
Here's a few pictures, we'll get more next time.
"We'll get closer to the ducks too even if you are deathly afraid."
Not the DUCKS. I'd prefer Beagle.

"I think it's called Mack Park."

All I know is you took that corner WAY too fast. I could have been killed.

New Camera!

YEAH! After years okay days of waiting my humanoids camera is here.
The bad news- doesn't have a compatible memory card-
"yet! I just got one off of-"
Let me guess, ebay. Here's a few we were able to take since the camera has a small amount of internal memory.

I think this was while my human was finally putting fluid in the car and air in the tire. Who says we're not prepared for winter.

And don't forget the quickly wilting flowers from Sunday dinner.

***Important Update***
"For those who read the comment below and are confused we removed the food pictures. The egg salad was grossing people out."
Oh admit it. Once someone told you it looked like finger nails you were grossed out too.
"Eww, stop reminding me. I'll put some pictures I took of last night's dinner. WW's version of Kung Pao Chicken."
Yeah that was yummy.
"I figured you liked it since you ate it all."

Human You Look Green!

"Ugh! That's what happens when you listen to Big Mama Thorton sing 'Your Love Is Where... ' your eyes closed and spinning on a massage stool."

Oh, that's all? I thought you were drinking ether. How disappointing.
"Here you try-"

PUT ME DOWN! STOP!
"Hmm, perfect song 'Bad Luck is on Me' by Guitar Slim."

Please, I'm going to be sick. I just ate all the chocolate bon bon ice cream things from Trader Joes.
"All of them?"

Well, except for the three I gave Beagle. Nooooooo!

Word of the Week

"ETHEROMANIAC"
What! I understand the maniac part. I live with one.
"Okay bear (hmm or is it bare) with me. One of me favorite sites lately is World Wide Word. It has such an array of words-"
ETHEROMANIAC?
"Right it's basically a person addicted to ether. They typically would use it like alcohol but with a few differences. For example, etheromaniacs would get drunk quicker and sober up in a few minutes with no hangover. One big detraction was 'violent belching of flammable gas'."
That's the only down side? Beagle has that problem every time I feed him chocolate. Besides altering your mental status? Isn't that the tag line for DARE?
"Huh? No that's Drug Abuse Resistance Education. Stop feeding the neighbors dog chocolate, at least near our place. This was really popular in the late 1800's when people used natural gas for lighting. Imagine your burp causing you or the people next to you on fire!"
Hmm, find me some ether and a lighter and then STAND right there!


**** Please don't try this at home... Or your neighbors... Or at work... ****
