Lactating Testicles

Well folks, Corky is home and doing well. She is not happy with the food that she has to eat but that’s life. She has been busy re-marking everything in the place. She has worked her claws on the legs of the dining room table, and has been rubbing up against all of the furniture. I was so happy to have her back home that we played a little game that she likes so much.

Corky likes it when I apply milk and catnip to my testicles. She gets all crazy as she licks and paws at them. Mind you, I find it repulsive and perverse, but whatever I can do to make her happy, is very important to me. Note to self: Next vet check up, get her de-clawed…Anyhoo.

One thing I failed to mention yesterday is the weather that we are having in Ohio. Holy Moly it has been in the low 60’s for a week. Kids are playing outside, the birds are chirping, and the hookers and crack dealers are enjoying an extra week of their annual sidewalk sale. Life is good.

I guess it is time to start gearing up for Christmas. This will be the first Christmas that I will be spending with both parents gone. Dad died some eight years ago, and Mom passed away last June. I miss them both very much, but there is an upside. Money is pretty tight this year, so I guess it is good that I have one less present to buy. Oh c’mon don’t moan at that one. My mom was pretty frugal and my dad was really funny so I think they both appreciated that joke.

My family is getting together Christmas Eve…all eight of us plus everybody’s second and/or third spouse/significant other and the kids. There will be gifts galore around the tree. It is always cramped Christmas Eve, but not because of all the people and presents. The problem is trying to cram all of our massive egos into one house. Oh yeah, we all have big heads, literally and figuratively.

My son is getting excited as always. He is such a sweet kid, and he is an aberration as far as twelve year olds go. For example, his grandpa and grandma wanted to get him the new $600.00 Playstation for Christmas. The sweet little man said, “Thanks a lot, but please don’t get it because it costs too much.” I also remember taking him home from my Mom’s house a couple of years ago after our big Christmas Eve bash. His mom and I had bought him a Nintendo Game Cube system. As we were driving home I said to him, “Ryan, I hope things work out and you get your Game Cube.” He simply looked at the back seat full presents that he got at Mom’s and said, “That’s okay Dad, either way, I am one lucky boy.”…And the Matt-Man teared up, what a good boy.

Well, I am off to the store to get some more milk and catnip. And by the way, do not tell Pastor Parsley about this, for I do not want to lose my reward in heaven.

Cheers…

I am big headed literally as well. Hmmm dirty martinis, oysters in the dressing, I am starting to think we might be related. Only difference is I would have had the cat de-clawed before I let him near my bits. Glad Corkey is doing better.

Your son sounds a lot like my favorite nephew. I took him to the mall to buy him a new play station game and when he couldn't decide between two games I offered to buy both but he would not let me.

I prefer to use peanut butter; for it encourages more saliva.

Schmoop said...

Maybe we are twin siblings of different mothers. It is certainly nice to see kids growing up with a mind-set such as my son and your nephew...Maybe there is hope.

I guess leaving Corky's claws in adds an element of danger.

Schmoop said...

LOL Joe...Do you use chunky or creamy?

Anonymous said...

It starts as chunky but finishes creamy......either way, as long as it is a happy ending...

frothingly yours

Schmoop said...

That kind of talk tightens my colon.

Mo and The Purries said...

...skipping over the lactating testicles...

that half-bag of catnip pic is a riot.
Ryan is one lucky boy! How'd he get so sweet? Must be Corky's influence, 'cuz we all know it sure ain't --



his mothers!


Glad Corky's back to mark her territory!

Lizza said...

Good lord, the image of a cat (no matter how beloved) licking the family jewels...stop!

Awww, your son is just too precious for words. Give him a hug for me, please.

Schmoop said...

Mo, I was quite amused as well with the nip pic. And he indeed gets hiis good nature from me...I think.

Lizza, I am merely trying to incorporate an environment for Cork that more closely resembles cats in the wild. I am being selfless yet again.

As far as Ryan I will do just that, and thanks.

Okay, if I had any breakfast in my stomach right now, it would be resting on my keyboard after the first part of his post and Joe's comments. Your spawn sounds wonderful. Let's hope he doesn't pick that one up. lol

Schmoop said...

Just keepin' it real Allie, and trying to form an unbreakable bond with my favorite feline. Dont worry about the wee one, he will be fine...Here kitty kitty.

Odat said...

OMG I can't believe I'm reading this at work and have to go into a meeting with catnip and family jewels on my mind...what a visual!

Your son sounds so sweet tho....lol.

Peace

The Boy said...

Nothing like the kids to keep egosand greed in check.

Schmoop said...

One thing odat, you will be the only one in the meeting with a unique thought!! Cheers...

Schmoop said...

True indeed boy...Hope the sun comes out for ya!!

y.Wendy.y said...

How about sending that kid of yours over here to have a serious chat with my two..their Christmas list consists of about a gazillion pictures cut out of the toy catalogues so THOUGHTFULLY provided to us on a DAILY basis by local retailers.

I reckon they think Santa won the lottery this year. Gah!

p.s. I read what you and Lizza said yesterday...ha ha ha.....NATO indeed!

;o)

Schmoop said...

Retailers are evil this time of year. If I was your chicken pox afflicted son, I would be playing that angle up immensely!! Yeah, well the NATO idea, a man has to try, Wendz...

Schmoop said...

Ha...Damn Straight Foxy, and thanks. Cheers!!

Wendz,

Does France hate Dean Martin because of what he did to Jerry Lewis?

Schmoop said...

Your thirst for knowledge is unsurpassed Joe.

Mikey said...

Thanks Mikey I appreciate it. Thank the Fox-Meister for me. Cheers!!

Mo and The Purries said...

OMG

desert rat said...

It's refreshing (and just a tad bit disturbing), to find a man so dedicated to the well-being of his pets. I'm crossing my legs and I don't even HAVE testicles!

Sounds like you have an awesome son!

Desert Songbird said...

Matty me boy, your dedication to your cat is amazing. The lengths you will go to...

Your son sounds amazing. I must brag and say that my kids are stunningly sensitive to things like money as well.

Regular visitor here today via the Carnival (I can't believe I didn't comment on this the first time?....)

Have a great weekend, lover boy, and see you on Monday!
