yeah, yeah...

Yeah, yeah...


YEAH, yeah...


Yeah, yeah, yeah...  Yeah, yeah, yeah, YEAH...


Mouses Peepers, stop singin' your own praises.  It's not a very becoming habit AND I'm pretty sure I heard you the first time.


But am I listenin' to you, you ask?  Am I hearin' what you're sayin'?


OF COURSE I AM.  I heard you loudly and clearly.  You said, "Blah, blah, blah; blah, blah, blah, blah, blah; blah, BLAH, blah;  blah, blah, blah, BLAH."


What?  So sorry.  I musta missed a couple blahs.


MOUSES!


Peepers, don't try to make me listen to your blatherin' again.  Yeah, I KNOW you finally got all those spring bulbs planted.  And yeah, I KNOW it was super chilly out there yesterday but you stuck it out and planted the last of 'em, anyway.  AND I KNOW the wind was whippin' about and turnin' you into a block of ice out there.  I know all that stuff.  I. Know.


MOUSES!


Well the thing is, Peepers, it would have been more of an accomplishment, I think, if uh...


Well...


Well the thing is...


The thing is, I happen to know you had originally intended - and were SUPPOSED - to have all those bulbs planted two months ago.  Two months ago when it was a whole lot warmer.  Two months ago when they first arrived.  Two months ago when it was still September.


AND IF YOU HAD planted 'em all two months ago, way back in September, you wouldn't have had to have been out there yesterday planting 'em in that horrible icy cold, now WOULD you.


It's not a question.  It's a statement of fact.


MOUSES!


Peepers, if you insist on procrastinatin' like you seem to always do, you're bound to end up havin' to do stuff at times you'd rather not be doin' said stuff.


Or somethin' like that.


MOUSES!


I'm gonna stop you right there, ol' procrastinatin' peep of mine.  Bottom line is: IT'S YOUR OWN DARNED FAULT YOU WERE OUT THERE WHEN IT WAS LIKE TWO OR THREE DEGREES, SO DON'T COME LOOKIN' TO ME FOR SYMPATHY OR PRAISE 'CAUSE YOU ENDED UP FREEZIN' YOUR FINGIES AND TOOSTIES OFF ON ACCOUNT OF YOUR PLANTIN' BULBS IN NOVEMBER - IN CANADA - WHEN IT'S BOUND TO BE SUPER DUPER DARNED COLD.


Did I mention this is Canada?  DID I?


Yup, I do believe I did.


MOUSES!

MOUSES!

Remember to mask up, too.

  1. Seville, she hasn't figured out that you are in Canada?
    What's with that?
    Maybe she thinks you all live in Michigan, where is freakin' cold and snowy then?

  4. We're proud of the Peep and all, Sivvers, but yeah, she should have done those when it was warmer. Of course, that's coming from us, who are not at al fans of winter. :)
