I'm pregnant....

The father is either Luke Skywalker or Donald Duck...

Lady Gaga is my half cousin

I think George Bush is a hottie

And my cat can speak...three languages

If you haven't figured out that it is April Fools day by now you are square...

I have been able to pull off some good ones in my time. Probably the most dangerous one was when I called my mother from London and told her I got married to my boss. All it took was her saying, "I don't want to hear this" in a tone of voice that made me realise if I didn't end the joke right then and there it didn't matter that there was an entire continent between us the explosion would be huge.

I have been off my usual blogging topics lately. I apologise...honestly with all the new personal issues that I am having to face (and am not willing to discuss on this blog yet) I just haven't been up to it. But I am interested to see the response, if any, to this post!.

So if you have been majorly fooled today don't feel bad- just have a laugh, that's what it is all about!. I shall end with a link to my friend's blog where she tells the story of how she was duped by possibly one of the best April Fools I have managed to pull off. She took it really well and we are still friends to this day. If you are a soccer fan and support a particular team you will understand why this nearly broke her heart....
April Fools: San Siro burns down

P.S If you STILL thought I was serious by the time I got to George Bush not only are you square, you are also disturbed! :)

The mystery of the missing kitty....

Late at night and all is not what it seems....

The appears to be a strange lump under my duvet...and it's moving!

Suddenly a furry face pops out

Mystery solved!!
My kitty is actually a BOY (I don't know much about kittens okay!) and I have named him.....
Milo
:) :) We took him to the animal welfare on Wednesday so he could have his shots. It is ridiculously expensive in South Africa to vaccinate an animal and we figured that maybe they could give us a break. Well, they were actually really pissy with us for bringing him there because they only vaccinate the animals of the disadvantaged for a hugely reduced fee. And as the lady pointed out to us "You don't exactly look disadvantaged" and she was right but my Mom didn't take very kindly to her bitchiness. She told her that things weren't always what they seemed and she announced that I lived with her, I was unemployed, I had been ill over the last four years and I had no money. Yeah....that made me feel like shite. In the end they agreed to vaccinate Milo and de- worm him. Unfortunately there was no vet there to check him out.

Milo is a bundle of energy. He reminds me of one of those wind up toys that just keep on going and going except he never stops. He will play with anything, even his own tail will keep him amused for hours. He has used his litter box from the very beginning and will climb two flights of stairs to take a nap in his basket in my room. We have had him for just 10 days but the change in him his huge and he grown immensely. He his very cuddlable but doesn't stay still for 2 seconds to let you cuddle him. I am actually not getting a whole lot of sleep at the moment because when it's time to go to bed he thinks it's time to play and he starts chewing on my hair and toes. Then he'll wake me up with a paw slap on the cheek at 6am to get his breakfast.

Anyway we are enjoying him. He has provided us with loads of laughs and lots of fun. You'll never get bored with a kitten around!

More pics ( hopefully one day I will get a camera other than my Blackberry...sorry for the crappy quality)

Spot the kitty....again. He gives us heart attacks when he climbs trees especially when he gets to the very thin top branches, but he always gets himself down.

An unusual place to sleep....

Fast asleep with his favorite toy :)

I can walk around with him perched on my shoulder like a parrot

Funny Friday

It has been one of the busiest weeks I've had in ages. Full of  ups, downs, detours, breakthroughs and dead ends. But it has been  good and I am absolutely EXHAUSTED!. There has been a big change in my life and I now no longer have a choice but to get up  everyday and fight my depression. I now have someone else that depends on me. But I will write more about that this weekend.

One thing I learnt this week is how good laughing can be both physically and for the soul. No matter how bad your day has been it can be completely turned around my a good belly laugh. Now and then I would like to put things up on this blog that will make people laugh. Of course each person has a different sense of humor, but hopefully I will get a few people laughing will these videos. One of them and my friends and I in tears and we laughed for an hour straight!

And I apologise if my writing isn't up to scratch in this post...right now I am so tired I can barely see the screen!







* I did some googling on the swinging cat because I didn't want to put anything up of a cat hurt him/herself as being funny. Apparently it was a stunt made for a phone. All the stuff I read said the the cat was okay.
