Look who I met this morning...

...while waiting for my bus...

Mr. Snow-Flake

He was all alone, but we had a lovely conversation. He told me we'd be seeing a lot of him and his family over the next few months. I told him I couldn't wait and that he and his family were welcome to stay as long as they liked.

You can tell your new friends and his family to stay at your house.
And that I'm going to write my name on them. (and yes, I will cross the T)

Sean Newbury said...

I already did, but they said because I so love them, the love would melt them, so they will be staying at your place instead...

Maria said...

Great, now they have 2 places to stay. Let it snow ONLY when I am on vacation.

I will make sure to buy lottery tickets to cover my end while I am away. The rest of you can do your share, and if we win you can join me.

Sean Newbury said...

Where you going? and when?

A chick writing her name in a snowbank... now THAT's talented.

Then again, N@ is a Northeastern Ontario girl.

Maria said...

As long as N@ ain't writing her name in the snow with something yellow, and of she does PLEASE DO NOT POST A PIC - PLEASSSEEE!

Kitty, not exactly sure when I am leaving yet. Should be within the next two weeks. Destination still unknown... thats the life of an airline employee, we pack our bags and head off to the airport and look for available seats to sunny destinations.

We are looking at several places
1) Grand Cayman
2) Cruise
3) Our regular hangout... Riviera Maya

NGB... suuuuuuuuure, women can write in the snow, but they just do not have the delicate and dare I say 'fluid' cursive that the male of the species is capable of... theirs is more like Morse Code.

Maria... Take me with you! I'll take care of your kids... (Nanny-Kitty)... they drink tequila shots right?

Mental image: "Hellloooooooooo. I'm Kitty Doubtfire." Back off! Cyberuncle Bob has first dibs on babysitting Sonny Boy and Princess on vacation. Oh, wait. It conflicts with my Dubai trip. Go ahead, Doubtfire, but I go next time.

Morse Code! I'm laughing so hard, I'm going to pee myself -- and not the kind of pee that you can write anything with.

I am kinda liking the idea of Kitty Doubtfire.

My kids are natural travellers now and no baby-sitting required, but your still welcomed to come along.

BTW, no they don't drink tequila shots! They do LOVE Bahama Mama, Miami Vice and the mexican version of Shirley Temples (all virgin drinks of course).

Sean Newbury said...

Yea I think I'll pass on the virgin drinks....

Besides... who's the wee ones gonna learn to drink from? their parents? no luck there! They're gonna be in high school in a few years... you don't want them to be the only sober ones there do you?!

Maria said...

Actually sonny boy started high school this past September. This is why I sent him to a private school. Then again, these private schools are worse than the public schools from what I have noticed.

Baby girl has a ways to go before high school and at that point I give ya a call. Who knows maybe by then she gonna be teaching you a thing or two. Good Lord!

#1: It took me forever to figure out how N@ would write her name on snowflakes; I kept imagining the name on a SINGLE snowflake at a time.

#2: I really should be taken as the nanny since I have a wealth of experience and expertise with kids. Also, I never go anywhere interesting.

#3: Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but I'm pretty sure your friend died shortly after your conversation. Still, through the great cosmic water cycle, he will be reborn anew at some point.

Sean Newbury said...

1) Don't put anyything past N@

2) Hell no! It's ME Kitty Doubtfire! I promise I wont sell em into white slavery (uynless I can get a REALLY good price!)

3) Like Frosty he will be reborn again and again and again. Jesus ain't got nothing on Mr Snowflake.

@ maria:
private schools=good education

bad behavior...

@kitty:
your friend can visit,
from december 15th
to january 15th.
anything before,
it's untimely,
anything after,
& it's already overextending its welcome...

i don't babysit,
but i like tequila...
:D~

"Jesus ain't got nothing on Mr Snowflake"

...Sounds like a country song to me.

Sean Newbury said...

FYI those who don't like Mr Snowflake should realize, like horses, bears and dogs, they sense fear... You've been warned.

TB... I think Tequila and babysitting is like PB and J... a natural fit!

JB... you've got the guitar... start writing that number.... I expect a Christmas music CD by mid Dec.

Attention all would-be female snow scribes... ya'll have to get a Freshette "The Feminine Urinary Director" I'm not making this up. See the website: http://www.freshette.com/

Sean Newbury said...

Can't say that I'm surprised... especially that it's American!

Can you say Penis Envy?
(heh)
