And there's a translated version:

Cute!

I saw Chicago on Broadway, too. I liked it.

Ha! Since we're all in a youtube mood, I'll share what I found while I've been poking around the site. This is perhaps a bit late, but most of us still have our Christmas decorations up, so the mood may still be there:

Excellent!!! We never got that show in the UK

I think I like the (Mexican?) General the best...Ready.....aim..

BEV!!!!!!!!!!!! you silly, try not to get lost for TOO long....we miss you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

YES, Bev!! We love you silly!!

She looks adorable. I want to PUNISH her stupid crack-wh_ _ _ mother....... (insert angry-faced emoticon)

Think we can all agree on that score

And maybe Peter can explain to me why my cat feels like knocking me over in the kitchen is the best way to convince me he deserves treats...

Yes,

More kitty questions for Peter - why (when he has woken me up by laying over my face) does Will try to insert his head in my mouth when I yawn????

Also, why does he stick his nose to my nostril???

Susie said Cranky ass jaded adult

(I think I may be one too )

[jerseyangel]

More kitty questions for Peter -

While we're at it, I have one too. Why the heck does my cat sit and stare at me until I wake up in the middle of the night??? It kinds freaks me out

[nikki-uk]

Where is our silly oracle with profound feline knowledge????......mixing the martinis??

[DingoGirl]

Susie said Cranky ass jaded adult

(I think I may be one too )

Yes, but we still have our silly, don't we!??!

While we're at it, I have one too. Why the heck does my cat sit and stare at me until I wake up in the middle of the night??? It kinds freaks me out

gahhh

they're famous for this, aren't they? It's how they WILL the humans to do things. my mom's cats sleep on her head......quite challenging!

OMG Stepford comes home today.........that means a POP-IN (but at least a pop-in with money)......better continue the mad deep cleaning........

[nikki-uk]

......better continue the mad deep cleaning........

*shudder*

..I feel quite old...my eldest son has gone out tonight - his friends were waiting for him as he faffed (is that a word?)around in the bathroom....wayyy too much aftershave on all of 'em...

At midnight people in my street go out banging on pots and pans ....would Peter care to explain .....I don't do it...never have

[blueeyedmanda]

While we're at it, I have one too. Why the heck does my cat sit and stare at me until I wake up in the middle of the night??? It kinds freaks me out

I know Lucky does this....I can wake up numerous times and he is always sitting on the nightstand resting his head on the alarm clock and staring at me....while Purring. I look at him and he comes over and kisses me and then continues to stare....freaky! He does not do this to John....just me.

[elye]

Excellent!!! We never got that show in the UK

Yes, you did! It was absolutely top-rated, and went into reruns for many years over there. Uh...at least it did in Scotland, Australia,...I believe Ireland...perhaps not England...The creator of the show is English and has had many kid shows on over there. YCDTOT was his only foray into a North American market. I miss it!

While we're at it, I have one too. Why the heck does my cat sit and stare at me until I wake up in the middle of the night??? It kinds freaks me out

Gahh! Both of my cats do this, at the same time. Very freaky. What is more freaky is the fact that now I will suddenly awaken and the yeti is in between the two cats, staring as well....

Amanda, it's so horrid to hear about the life Sabrina must lead when she is with her waste-of-skin mother, but an incredible relief to know that at least she has found your wonderful family.

[DingoGirl]

At midnight people in my street go out banging on pots and pans ....would Peter care to explain .....I don't do it...never have

I"VE DONE THIS!!!!!!!!! Many a time, in fact - - well, whenever I'm still awake at midnight, ha ha!

You silly, it's meant to scare the evil spirits away, so you'll have a blessedly good year! I love the tradition. Neighbors have thought I was mad, some years. Never done it here in Stepford.......but WHAT a good idea!!!!!!!!!!!! P'raps I'll see if I can round up my shirtless zombie and have him join in!

I know Lucky does this....I can wake up numerous times and he is always sitting on the nightstand resting his head on the alarm clock and staring at me....while Purring. I look at him and he comes over and kisses me and then continues to stare....freaky! He does not do this to John....just me.

oh my god......CLEARLY what this means is that Lucky is WILDLY in love with you - and he is having a LOVE SURGE!!!!!!!!! It's like a power surge - only it's a flood of emotions.......

Gahh! Both of my cats do this, at the same time. Very freaky. What is more freaky is the fact that now I will suddenly awaken and the yeti is in between the two cats, staring as well....

:lol: Does the Yeti look at you wtih love in his eyes also, or is he simply WILLING you to do something?

[blueeyedmanda]

I know Sabrina's mom is a waste of flesh! It is so sad, that people who are dying to have children cannot but all these people who are unfit are having babies left and right....

So right now I am playing fetch with my cat, he is like a dog....throw something and he brings it back.

My cat also follows us wherever we go, especially if we both leave the room....its like having a shadow...LOL and when I am cooking he is laying right behind me, I step on him all the time and he still lays there.

[nikki-uk]

Yes, you did! It was absolutely top-rated, and went into reruns for many years over there. Uh...at least it did in Scotland, Australia,...I believe Ireland...perhaps not England...The creator of the show is English and has had many kid shows on over there.

I'm quite sure we didn't....maybe on Cable channels (Nickleodian?) as re- runs...but alas I don't have cable

I"VE DONE THIS!!!!!!!!! Many a time, in fact - - well, whenever I'm still awake at midnight, ha ha!

You silly, it's meant to scare the evil spirits away, so you'll have a blessedly good year! I love the tradition. Neighbors have thought I was mad, some years.

So it wasn't a dream afterall ...mmmm... I think maybe the Stepfords will enjoy ye olde tradition!!

:lol: Does the Yeti look at you wtih love in his eyes also, or is he simply WILLING you to do something?

It is very disconcerting when you catch him doing that

[Jestgar]

Keep a bucket of chicken legs by the bedside for when he does this.

might work with the cats, too

[elye]

My cat also follows us wherever we go, especially if we both leave the room....

Gus and my two cats follow me (just me, no one else) everywhere. This includes the bathroom. I'll head in, sit down, and Gus pushes the door open with his nose. Then Bryce will come in under Gus's legs, and finally, Tess will quietly round up the group and all three will be sitting around me as I'm having a pee. Quite something...

Now, the yeti has not tried to join this bathroom mob...thank gawd, as there just is NOT room...

Chicken legs, huh, Jess?

Okay, going out to a small New Year's Eve party tonight...house party, kids are coming, should be about fifteen people. Wearing black. Drinking wine. Bringing yeti.

Happy New Years, Sillies!!!

Jess, if the kitty that you are talking about is the kitty in your av . . . let him have the whole darn kitchen.

and BTW let's clarify here.....I think I like the OLD musicals......the classics. Never minded watching them - in fact LOVED Sound of Music, Wizard of Oz, My Fair Lady, Oliver.......'tis true!!!!!! I think it's the newer ones.......OMG OMG OMG I borrowed Chicago from someone and lasted all of about 8 minutes - was FURIOUS - - - was DEEPLY TORTURED - - so skipped to the end and watched last scene......worst thing I've ever seen.

The one with Renee Zellweger and Cathrine Zeta-Jones????? . . . Yep, I looovvvvveeeed that!

I have returned from the mall!!!! I have seen Carla and she is indeed NOT Robert Redford. We had a wonderful visit and her husband was terribly nice and tolerant of all the gabbing and took pictures for us. I think Carla's turned out better. When I have time, I'll put one up in the av.

What Susie failed to mention was that she does this most nights but NEVER on New Year's Eve.

[CarlaB]

We did have a great time at the mall! Its probably a good thing we chat online or none of us would ever get anything done!

For some reason I can't upload the pics from my phone to the avatar so I'll have to do it when I get home... We stopped for dinner...

[nikki-uk]

Glad you two had a fab time !! (I am a tad jealous though )

Around 40 mins until midnight here - off to watch tv in bed (got my pj's on!!)

HAPPY NEW YEAR SILLIES!!!!!!!!!

[jerseyangel]

I think I got here just in time--

Happy New Year Nikki!!!!!

[happygirl]

Yes, Happy New Year Nikki!

(Good job Patti!)

[Lisa]

Happy New Year Nikki!!!

[Mtndog]

Our Sarah is back! Stupid Christmas glutenings

Bevvie wevvie!!!

Nikki--you poor thing The flu is awful--I hope it doesn't last long....take care, get lots of rest and don't forget the chicken soup

I also need to go on a diet--way too much candy and cookies as of late--and all this talk of marshmallows, caramel and toffee is not helping M-m-m...toffee.....

Love The Sound of Music! If I had to choose, I would say "My Favorite Things" is my favorite song from it, but all of the music was so good.

Patti called me Bevvie wevvie- I LOVE that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

In 2008, I will outlaw:

glutenings and all other food intolerances

stomach flu

man flu

hangovers

man colds

projectile vomiting

weight gain of any kind

OMG- Lyme is making me chubby and brain dead.....seriously, ever since i stopped uhmm....upchucking on a tri-dailly basis, I've put on like 10 [pounds. Feel like a Lymie COW!!!!!!!!!!!!

She actually spent Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and the following day with her biological mom...and when my mom picked her back up at Child Services on Thursday, she found out the baby hadn't had a change of clothes the entire time she was "home" My mom peered in the diaper bag at all the clean clothes she sent, it was obvious none had ever been touched. Then the one pair of pajamas that she must have worn her whole visit, were literally pitch black....eww! My mom dunked her in the bath tub the minute she got her home.

So after my rant...sorry had to get that off my chest. So I saw her and we all gave her presents on Saturday. She is such a pleasant baby...she has been in the system since birth...her mom has supposedly done almost everything that she needs in order to get her child back. But when the baby's father comes along (mom's boyfriend) she forgets about the baby...even leaving it alone for hours...and now the baby comes back to us dirty. So I guess if the mom screws up again the baby will go for adoption. So in my eyes, why not allow her to keep screwing up and let the baby go to a family who wants her....an adoptive home. The system will keep delaying it and delaying it and by the time she is ready for adoption she could be 3 or 4...if not older and than her chances of getting adopted get smaller and smaller...people want babies. I know some people need those chances to prove themselves but look at the best interest of the kid....give her half the chance to have a great life....

Sorry for the rant.

OMG- I would rant too! She's so cute. I was adopted and i feel so fortunate

hmmm, I like Chicago. But I felt this way ^ about Moulin Rouge, so I guess I can relate.

Oh Lordie- hated Chicago! And only made it through the first 10 minutes of Moulin Rouge.......too confused. may be it would be more understandable while drinking absinthe!

Susie called Christopher Plummer DELICIOUS! Now that's cute!!!!!!!!!!

Also wanted to poop in and say HAPPY NEW YEAR"S EVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It's already 2008 in Nikki land! Wonder if she's drunk.
