Ruff words

So you fancy yourself quite the smooth talker aye? A polyglot you say? A master of romance languages even?

Maybe you’re just the great communicator. To you, I say, “good boy/girl.”

Hey, having an understanding of everything around us is a great quality to own, and deserves reward,but some of us aren’t quite there yet.

Sadly, some of us can’t even get in a wordinedgewise with the ones nearest and dearest to us…

We find ourselves perhaps giving unwanted belly rubs or Milkbones, sometimes we even find our trashcans tipped over, perhaps as a sign of rebellion or because we left some half eaten sandwiches in there.

Well dogs aren’t the only ones left scratching themselves…I think it’s fair to say we’ve often wondered what our furry friends have to say.

There’s a communication breakdown going around…the mange of our otherwise happy tail wagging existence.

If episodes of Cesar Milan aren’t enough to lead into a better relationship with our pooches, then maybe the web can…(maybe).

Type a word into the handy canine translator to see what your pooch is trying to tell you.

No go on, get your talk on. Woof!!!

There are some good cat stories here too.

‘Ello Kittehs

Hello Friends and Mom (All three of you that read this blog).

You’re probably wondering, hey where’s the posts? Where is my “HUMP DAY” stuff?

For a while now(We’re looking at you NEW reader), we here at The NERD of HER! headquarters have been giving you an array of YouTube videos on Wednesdays…as a sort of way to get through the hump, that is humpday.

These videos usually follow a theme we’ve put together after many an hour of brain and server racking (riiiighhht).

So far, many of you have enjoyed these videos and have been kind enough to share them with the ones you love, or at the very least want to embarrasses.

Today, as a change of pace (and likely as a way of dodging REAL work), we decided to leave the video ideas to a certain gray tabby cat.

He didn’t feel like posing for a photo, but the tabby’s name is Avner and he’s good friends with le bunny.

Getting Avner to help out with today’s blog post was quite a feat. For as you know, the schedule of a cat is a the jumble of 9 lives in speeds and maneuvers that would put scenes in the Matrix to shame.

Amid a busy schedule of harassing his sister, attacking the television, acting oblivious to humans, accumulating 18 hours of sleep, and consuming kibble in amounts exceeding his own body mass, Avner was able to hunt up some good videos. He did it all with a smile (not very different from that of a Cheshire), and we think the videos he selected might get you grinning too.

So gather you and your furry ones around the computer.

Today’s theme’s Cat’s that talk!

Say Hello to the ‘Ello Kitty!

: I could listen to this kitteh all day.

: You have and you will.

: He’s soooo cute.

: It’s the British accent. Everyone is a sucker for it.

The Conversation:

: Awww, I’ve blogged about them before I think. Or emailed anyway.

: I know. And you should blog again, these are some sassy ladies.

: Ohh.

: They’re like your giant shaved cat version of “The View,” but in less annoying. I was going to be on their show actually, but I had to take a nap.

The Coolest cat ever:

: Hey who’s this?

: I dunno, but that’s a handsome cat.

: Handsome and familar…

: (whistling)

Annoying Winston

: I wonder what’s bothering poor Winston.

: Well, his head looks like a hamburger for one.

: I can haz cheeseburger?

: I knew you were going to say that.

: I had to!

: Why isn’t anyone giving him a tissue?

: Awww, I love Winston.

: (Silence) Followed by the sounds of Le Bunny’s belongings being destroyed.

TNOH goes Newbie

So as the “conchibbutor”…I think I have the right to take certain liberties and perhaps some missteps. Trying to get on the ball here and make the head honcho at The Nerd of Her! proud of me. (cue the “Awwww!”)

I am thinking that my first little post on here is my attendance to Hug-a-Geek day!

Someone found me “geek-lovin” enough to warrant an invite to this “worldwide” virtual event.

I am honored!

I have no idea where the hosts ‘Winter-een-mas’ would think of inviting lil’ ol’ me.

Do they know of my love for Star Wars?

Do they know that I have collection of coin banks?

Do they know that I over-quote Friends episodes?

Do they know that my favorite dance move is “The Running Man?”

..or maybe they have seen this:

I am giving my arms the ole stretchy, stretch…dusting off my geek-o-dex…giving my ballpoint pens a good shining…ironing my pleated skirt–and I will be off hugging all the geeks I can get my hands on.

So on February 20th: set your Tivos to your favorite shows, put your laptops aside, leave those chat rooms, put down your Dungeons & Dragons swords and don’t make any dates (oh, wait…you’re a geek so you don’t any have dates hehe)…you will be too busy getting hugged by me!

So WATCH OUT!

Cheers…

Chibbigirl (the newest Conchibbutor to The Nerd of Her!)
