Happy Feet

Whenever I watch Happy Feet (which is disturbingly often), I have a crazy urge to learn to tap dance.

Good gift, bad gift

I got my first Christmas present of the year last night. Little early? Yeah. But some people are really impatient. (Like me.)

The Bunny and The Chicken went shopping yesterday and Chicken found something he decided I absolutely had to have. He was all set to save it for Christmas. That lasted about 30 minutes. He was SO excited to get my reaction and for me to start enjoying it right now.

So, with a touch of ceremony in taking it out of the bag (Clark W. Griswold would have asked for a drumroll, but that's just not how we roll), it was revealed to be a snow globe. A snow globe? He thought I'd like this? Then I saw what was in the globe.

Aw! How cute. He knows I loves me some penguins, and the parent and child image is so sweet. That is a pretty good gift. Unlike what my Sister gave me for my birthday.

It's not a bad gift. Not at all. Really, is there any such thing as a bad gift? My point is that those books are a gift designed to yank my chain. It's the kind of gift that really hits on "the joy of giving," and she certainly did enjoy giving them. The little shit.

And since the subject has been broached… yes, I like Hannah Montana. The tv show can be retarded, but I think she's as cute as a button (and Emily Osment is even cuter). Plus, the music is actually pretty good. As soon as you're done judging me over this, you should give it a listen.

Any ideas?

One of these days I will get around to writing about my vacation. I fully intend to. Then again, I meant to do that last year and never did, so we'll see what really happens.

Anyway, there's one tidbit I must share immediately. My souvenir from the trip:

These are my new penguin pals. I loves me some penguins. My penguins need names, but I haven't been able to come up with anything. Do you have any suggestions?

Yawn

Have you ever considered that March of The Penguins might be the perfect lullaby movie? Don't misunderstand me; I love Penguins. As far as documentaries go, I think it's fantastic.

It's just so sleepy-time soothing. It's like one of those nature sounds CDs, plus cough syrup, plus a head injury. Who knew Morgan Freeman could be so relaxing?

There are few places harder to get to in the world, but there aren't any where it's harder to live. The average temperature here at the bottom of the world is a balmy 58 degrees below zero. That's when the sun is out.

It wasn't always like this. Antarctica used to be a tropical place, densely forested and teeming with life…

Zzzzz…
