Mommy Gets Squirrely

I think I should preface this one by saying that my guess is that the dog in these photos just wanted to play with the little furry brown thing. I can’t imagine he actually wanted to eat it. He’s far too cute for that kind of behavior. ;) That said, the little furry brown thing’s mother wasn’t having any of it. The last image is classic. Check it out:

I used to think that I was superior to these little varmints, but I now think differently. There are a number of things in this here video that I will never be able to do. And that makes me realize that despite that fact that I, too, am just a squirrel trying to get a nut in this crazy world, until I can fly through the air and grab on to a pinwheely thing and then propel myself forward, I just might not ever get there. ;-)

Hilarious? Disturbing? Ridiculous? Brilliant? I say all of the above. Give it a whirl and let me know what you think!

25 Tips for a Successful Workout

anders — Mon, 20 Oct 2008 18:01:57 +0000

This week is the “next week” that I’ve been talking about for weeks now. I have been planning to join a gym and start working out for quite some time now, never really thinking that “next week” would ever arrive.

Next week is now.
*Sigh*

To get motivated, I have come up with the following tips and images that are hopefully going to help me get my workout on. If they work for me, they’ll definitely work for you…

1. If it does hang out, let it.

2. Stretch it out, but look good doing it.

3. Rest between sessions.

4. Try to remember which locker is yours.

5. Remember that even the little weights add up.

6. When you DO look in the mirror, try to smile.

7. Eat your carbs.

8. The bigger guys are always happy to spot you.

9. Don’t take anything from little trolls handing out “Power Bars.”

10. When the pull-up bar gets the upper hand…
hang on for dear life.

11. Cool down and relax whenever you get the chance.

12. Don’t forget to work on that mid-section.

13. Drink lots of milk.

14. Don’t make fun of the chicks doing yoga.

15. Breeeeeathe.

16. Eat a piece of fruit.

17. No matter how silly you feel, keep doing it.

18. Check your hair every now and then
or have someone do it for you.

19. Feeling pretty takes a little time.

20. There’s plenty of room in the locker room.
Go ahead and spread out a bit.

21. Try not to accentuate your humps, your humps, your lovely little lumps.

22. The trainers are there to help.

23. Avoid mischievous looking types lurking in corners.

24. You’re going to want to scream. Just do it.

25. Pick up a bite to eat on the way home.

Gettin’ a Little Squirrelly

Debby Cantlon, who plans to release Finnegan, this young squirrel, back into the wild, bottle-fed the infant squirrel after it was brought to her house.

When Cantlon took in the tiny creature and began caring for him, she found herself with an unlikely nurse’s aide: her pregnant Papillion, Mademoiselle Giselle.

Finnegan was resting in a nest in a cage just days before Giselle was due to deliver her puppies.

Cantlon and her husband watched as the dog dragged the squirrel’s cage twice to her own bedside before she gave birth.

Cantlon was concerned, yet ultimately decided to allow the squirrel out and the inter-species bonding began.

Finnegan rides a puppy mosh pit of sorts, burrowing in for warmth after feeding, eventually working his way beneath his new litter mates.

Two days after giving birth, mama dog Giselle allowed Finnegan to nurse; family photos and a videotape show her encouraging him to suckle alongside her litter of five pups.

Now, Finnegan mostly uses a bottle, but still snuggles with his ’siblings’ in a mosh pit of puppies, rolling atop their bodies and sinking in deeply for a nap.

Finnegan and his new litter mates, five Papillion puppies, get along together as if they were meant to.

Finnegan naps after feeding.

Finnegan makes himself at home with his new litter mates, nuzzling nose-to-nose for a nap after feeding.
