Sack Update

The bunnies have put their fluffy heads together, and you won't believe the horrible sack plans they have came up with. First, they're wanting to get the reunion name put on the bags, which guarantees they will need to make a large sack purchase soon, so they'll have time to figure out how to get the name on. Then, they're talking about ribbons and things to decorate the sacks, including color-coded ribbons so they will know who gets what sack! Ribbons! And you know they've already got a list for tying these ribbons, probably with my name right at the top!

Sacks!

Doomed, I am doomed! A rabbit went hopping off, to check out the produce market for sales on plants and other garden materials this afternoon, and you will never believe the horror that the bunny had in her paws, when she came hopping back! She had a SACK! A sack to be used for goodie bag construction! There is just one sack right now, because she wanted to get the opinions of all of her fellow rabbits on it first, but they all seemed thrilled with it, so they're probably going to get a group together tomorrow, to hop back, to get the rest of the sacks they need to the goodie bags. I am doomed! Obtaining sacks mean those bags are definitely going to be constructed, which means those rabbits are definitely going to try to make me work! And even worse, the sacks are very reasonably priced, which means the bunnies will likely be able to purchase garden supplies with the savings!

Further Horrors

You won't believe the horror that arrived in the human's email a few hours ago. The theater where the rabbits went to see their leader on the big screen just sent the human a COUPON! So now the human is wanting to to the theater, and horror of horrors, since the she says the bunnies have been so GOOD lately, she's thinking of letting them see their leader's film again! Oh, what did I do wrong? If those bunnies get to hop to that horrible movie, they will surely expect me to come along as well! Another afternoon ruined, by being forced into a theater full of rabbits! What did I do wrong to deserve such punishment?

Thought I Would Show Some Horror

I thought since the rabbits have amused themselves posting frightening pictures here, that I would offer up something truely frightening. Please make sure that no small children are nearby before looking at this. I give you




The Goodie Bag Items!

I hope the sight of all of this stuff, awaiting packing into various bags doesn't frighten anyone too much. And, I am very much afraid that this is just the start of the items to be included in the bag. This photo was taken when the human had just started gathering things, so she has at least three times the amount of materials now.

Condo Takeover

The rabbits have taken over my kitty condo, and I need advice on how to evict them. They decided it was just the perfect place to model their new clothing, so that alterations could be made, so I've had a bunny perched on the ceiling of the condo all day, trying on various outfits, while another bunny hops around, with pins and chalk and who knows what else, seeing where the alterations will need to be made, to get the best bunny fit! Does anyone know how in the world I can evict this fashion show?

Today's Rabbit Report

One of the bunnies hopped out this afternoon, and came back with a load of clothing in rabbit sizes and styles, I'm very annoyed to announce. The bunnies are all hopping around right now, trying it on, and making notes about alterations that are needed, and additional outfits that should be purchased when they go out again. Just perfect. Alternations mean sewing, and that will undoubtedly get the polar bears all fired up too. I might as well cancel my scheduled naps for tomorrow right now, for thanks to my siblings, I'm sure not to get in a single wink!

Sibling Update

A church let another homeless animal escape today. I am now up to 673 siblings. On the up side, this one is a leopard, which means she is a fellow feline, but on the down side, she seemed rather pleased to meet all of the bunnies, and she promptly started chattering with them about ear accessories and fashion. Somehow, this doesn't seem like the best sign to me. The bunnies are getting other cats on their side now! What if they convince this leopard that she should assist them in forcing me to work?

The Bunny Movie

The rabbits attended their leader's film early this afternoon. What a nightmare. Carrot juice everywhere, and carrot sticks, and I'm afraid to think of what other veggies the theater served in little sacks, in honor of the occasion. Really, they ought to be ashamed of themselves, and I ought to report them to someone! They actually gave this bunny movie a family friendly rating! Family friendly! Such rabbit horror deserves nothing less than an X rating!

Going to a Movie

I finally convinced the baby bunny who was assigned to guard me to let me on for a minute to post. The bunnies caught me, and have me leashed, in anticipation of attending that bunny movie tomorrow. It seems that all of the bunnies in the area are planning to see the film in shifts, so I'm not sure at what time I will be drug in to this movie, but they're definitely going to force me to attend. I wonder if they can be charged with cruelty to cats? All of that hopping, and carrot juice not to mention the shear number of bunnies! What a nightmare!

Movie Tomorrow!

It's Bebe, here to give you the good news. We've already captured our brother, in anticipation of our trip to see the head bunny on the big screen tomorrow. Oh, it's going to be such a nice day, attending our leader's appearance on the big screen. And once he's there, we're sure that our brother will enjoy himself immensely. We've already arranged to obtain a large sack of popcorn for him, and everything to make him happy, so he has absolutely nothing to complain about. We just hope we can stand the wait for morning!

My Doom Approaches

My doom is approaching on big bunny feet. Not only do I have a ton of work that the rabbits are planning to make me do, but the movie starring their leader comes out this Friday. They're already hopping around, getting ready to attend, and to drag me along to this film. They have even obtained a little pair of fake rabbit ears to stick on me, so that I will be an honorary bunny for the duration of the movie. They're going to make me dress like a rabbit! Have you ever heard anything so embarrassing in your life?

Tail Camouflage

Does anyone have any suggestions for tail camouflage? Really, I'm so proud of my long, silky tail, but I'm afraid the rabbits are right. It does tend to give my hiding places away. Not that I would want the bunnies' fuzzy cotton tails for anything, but still, I have to do something with this tail to make it harder to spot. I thought about hiding in the yarn bin, sure the tail wouldn't be detected in there, but it's turned nippy again and the polar bears are hard at work, knitting mittens and scarves, so I didn't dare take the risk. Right now, I'm lurking by the basket full of various power cords, but I'm not sure how well that will work long term. Sooner or later, the rabbits will need a cord to plug in the iron, or the hot glue gun, and they'll spot my tail again for sure! So, does anyone know a good way to hide the tail before it is to late, and I am forced to work?

See Our Brother's Been Here

Well, we see our brother's been on here, once more hoping to convince us that he's left town. Really, we don't know why he keeps trying. We can see his tail, poking out from under the bed and we can hear that bell from time to time. We know he's in here. We rabbits weren't born yesterday, we hope he knows. Anyway, he will be working tomorrow. We were going to work on the seed envelopes today, but the human wasn't feeling well, so we decided to wait. Tomorrow, though, first thing, he is taking his assigned place in the assembly line, so our brother can just stop hiding right this minute! Really, a little work will be good for him.

Trouble!

If the bunnies come on here, I am not here. You have no idea where I might have gone, but I am definitely not here. Oh, this is terrible, just terrible! The bunnies have started getting things ready to start seed envelope construction, possibly as early as tomorrow! They already have my leash out, ready to catch me for the assembly line! And, in even worse news, the human just got the happy news about the impending arrival of another relative, which, of course, means that I will be expected to stuff yet another goodie bag!

Today's Report

No sign of that peahen or her friend, the peacock yet. I'm not sure if that's good or not. Granted, they are big birds, and I could probably get a ton of money renting a nest to them, but still, there's the noise to consider. I hate to think of how much I would be charged to get a noise clause added to the lease agreement, if I could manage to find a feline lawyer who isn't tied up helping those mountain bears with their cases against Betsy. And then there's Betsy. She's sure this peahen is an escapee from a wedding, which means cake might be in the area. So she's been stalking around all day, trying to figure out where in the world said cake might be. I'm very much afraid she's thinking of doing a house to house search soon. I wonder if I ought to call our neighbors, to warn them their food is doomed?

Peahen

There is a peahen running loose in the neighborhood. The human came back just a bit ago, and reported sighting the bird trotting down the sidewalk, possibly heading for the local church. Honestly, a peahen, and her mate the peacock is probably somewhere around here too. Okay, they are birds, and I ought to be pleased to have new birds in the neighborhood that might be in need of a new nest to rent, but I sense potential trouble. Betsy is sure that this bird is a fugitive from someone's wedding, and she's trying to make me get off line so she can find a website to learn how to capture it, and force the bird to lead her back to the wedding cake. Not to mention, I've heard that peahens and their beaus the peacocks are rather noisy to say the least. Do you know how much trouble I would have to go to, getting a noise clause drafted for a lease agreement?

Doing Math

I've done a bit of math, to figure out how bad this movie will be, and I'm afraid it is looking to be worse than I feared. The bunnies figure that at least four, and possibly five rabbits will be able to occupy one human seat. Now, assuming that each movie theater has 200 seats, that indicates that I will be attending this film with 800 to 1000 rabbits, possibly even more if a lot of them are very young bunnies! This is a nightmare! I can just imagine it now. They will be hopping all over, de rinking carrot juice, munching carrot sticks and celebrating the head bunny's big screen appearance. I don't care if they promise me a large tub of popcorn with unlimited refills! No amount of corn is enough to make up for that degree of torture!

Impending Torture!

The rabbits have already arranged to get me a seat at the horrible rabbit movie coming out next week. I wonder if that is enough for me to bring criminal charges against them? I can see it now, I will be in a theater, the only feline, with bunnies everywhere, hopping about, and probably spilling carrot juice all over me as they watch their leader on the big screen. Really, no amount of popcorn is enough to make up for being forced to eat it in the middle of such a rabbit disaster!

Excellent Film Coming!

Well, I see our brother has already been on here, complaining about the excellent movie that's about to come out. Really, we don't know what his problem is. This movie starring the head bunny looks like it's going to be an excellent film. Oh, well. We'll sure he'll like it a lot more once he gets to the theater with us. We're already chatting with other rabbits about organizing a group to attend on opening day, and of course our brother will be accompanying us. Once he gets there and probably gets his paws on a tub of large popcorn, we're sure he'll love the movie.

I Can't Believe This!

I can't believe this, and I can only pray this movie has an X rating. Someone has actually made a film about the head rabbit, The Easter Bunny, alias Peter Cottontail! Rabbit encouragement on a large screen! Doomed, we are all doomed! The bunnies are already making plans to see this film. Knowing them, they're probably going to want to camp out in front of the theater to make sure they're the first ones there. And I'm sure that they're going to expect me to assist them in some way with this. I don't know yet what they're going to expect me to do, but I am sure they will expect something from me, to assist them in seeing this film. We are all doomed!

Lousy Library

I must find a way to punish the library too, I really have to. Honestly, you would think that place would have a bit more sense, wouldn't you, but then again, what could you expect from a location that stocks so many gardening books, and actually allows bunnies to hop in to borrow them? And seeing as they're barely a block away from our dwelling, you would think they wouldn't do that. They're lucky the books didn't teach the rabbits how to overtake their building with watermelon or squash vines. Today was the absolute worst, though. They let the human get her hands on a batch of CDs that she is planning to use to make a mix for the reunion! And the bunnies have already obtained holders for this little project! They will be on here forever burning things, and how will I get my blogging done, I would like to know!

I Hate Walmart

I hate Walmart. Really, that horrible business ought to be ashamed of itself, with the amount of encouragement it keeps offering to the human, and to those bunnies too, for family tree construction and reunion planning. The allowed the human to get a big batch of pictures printed up today, to be lagged to the reunion in those little photo albums she always takes, and even worse, they sold the bunnies a batch of those little stars to be stuck onto things to construct cemetery maps! I expect them to come hopping along any moment, to try to put me to work again! I won't even let myself think about the Irish flag scarf the human got. I'm sure nothing good can result from that piece of clothing.

Back!

I'm back from my enslavement at the hands of the rabbits, and I can't believe what those bunnies did to my blog! Wasn't it bad enough that they made me color little dots until I got blisters on my paws? Now I come back here, and what do I find, but they have amused themselves sticking up frightening vacation photos! I do hope that no one was traumatized too much by seeing the photos. Really, there ought to be some sort of warning attached to such frightening things like those tomatoes, and I am still surprised that someone didn't arrest Betsy up in Washington. I know she robbed that poor president of something, likely a sandwich!

And This

I don't know why we couldn't get this to post last night, but here's Betsy in Washington.


She's right in front of the White House where the president and that nice wife of his live. You know, she's interested in gardening. We were thinking about hopping by to offer her some advice, since we're such excellent gardeners, but our human really needed our help over at the National Archives with her family tree research. Maybe we can chat with her about planting next time, if the human decides to take the bus back up there. Anyway, Betsy had just stuffed herself decimating a tea back at the hotel, so it was safer than it usually is to take a picture like this.

Bebe Again

While our brother is still working, and he wouldn't still be working if he would actually try to show some industry, instead of stopping to complain about his aching paws every five minutes, we thought we would show you some of our family vacation photos. We hope you enjoy.

Josie Rabbit

This is Josie Rabbit at the tomato festival. Aren't all of those tomatoes beautiful? And they have so many seeds too. We almost filled a little jar when we seeded some of them.

Polar Bears

This is Nanna Polar Bear and a couple of the cubs, attending a quilt show. They just love those things. Don't they look so happy? One of these days, we are sure, they will win the drawing for the sewing machine.

Got Him!

Bebe here. I just wanted to let you know that we captured our brother. Really, if he wants to be undetectable, he ought to do something about that long tail of his. So hard to hide, unlike our fuzzy little cotton tails. Anyway, he's about to start coloring those dots for the nametags, so he won't be back until he's through. Really, we don't know what his problem is. If he would stop kicking up a fuss, and would get to work, he would be done in no time! We even wrote out how many dots we need in each color so he doesn't have to consult the family tree at all. How much easier could the job get?

Not Fooled

Brother, we hope you know that we weren't fooled for a moment by your claim that you were off on a tour of Sioux City, South Dakota. First of all, we raided your savings to pay for that replacement glue. We know you don't have the money for a tour. And second, we can hear your bell. That stolen wool must have fallen out. And isn't that your tail poking out from under the human's bed? Get out from under there this instant! There is coloring to be done, and then you can listen to music with us, to pick the arrangement for the family reunion CDs were are going to burn!

Not Here!

If those rabbits come on here looking for me, I am not here. I have joined a feline tour group, and am on my way to Sioux City, South Dakota. And then we're booked to visit the world's largest ball of twine. So the rabbits really shouldn't wait for me, because I won't be back any time soon. You will not believe the horrors that I have suffered today. First of all, the human strolled by the mission, and was promptly tackled by more homeless bears. I am now up to 672 siblings. And then, to make things even worse, the human dropped by Walmart, and would you believe that that horrible business had a sale going on nametags? The human obtained 144 of them! 144! And I will be expected to produce colored dots for all of them! The bunnies are hopping about now, getting crayons for just this purpose, so if they come on here and ask, I am not at home, and they should start working themselves if they want something done!

My Poor Paws

My, poor, poor paws. I was caught a bit ago by the bunnies, who were determined to accomplish something, and forced onto the map assembly line. I was made to stick the number 5 onto twenty-nine cemetery maps! The only reason they finally let me go, was because they ran out of maps, and were getting a bit concerned about the number of their little stars remaining too. Twenty-nine maps, and of course the bunnies kept insisting I hurry with poking the five onto the maps. I wouldn't be surprised if I don't develop blisters, or possibly irritation on my paws from the glue on those little sticky stars.

Definitely Gloated too Soon

I'm afraid I gloated too soon about the gluestick failure. Sure, the sticks refusing to hold the colored paper to the labels set back the bunnies' plans for seed envelope construction rather nicely, but it didn't occur to me that they would then have time to do a bit of reading, while waiting for the rabbit they dispatched to purchase more glue to come hopping back! Now they've taken it into their fluffy heads that they ought to make a CD of reunion themed music for the goodie bags. Do you know how much my computer time would be cut into, if they did that? Almost 100 CDs! They would be on here forever burning them, and when would I have time for blogging?

Gloating too Soon

You are gloating too soon, brother, I you hope you know. It's Bebe, and you ought to be ashamed of yourself. We know you did something to mess up our gluesticks. But never fear, you will be working yet! We sent a bunny out to purchase industrial strength glue, to get our project back on track! And since you sabotaged the glue we had, we are sure, we dipped into your savings to obtain the stronger glue!

Gluestick Failure

I am happy to announce that the gluesticks the bunnies were using on their little seed envelope seal project have failed. They aren't holding the colored paper on the labels at all in some places, and the rabbits have concerns about how long the hold on the other places might last. They're in the kitchen right now, hopping mad about it. Happy day! No seals mean that the seed envelopes can't be constructed, which means I can't be forced to fold hundreds of the little things! No work for me! And the rabbits have no proof I sabotaged their little gluesticks either!

Well, Well

Well, well, it looks like our brother's been on here. Which means he is likely in the bedroom someplace. We knew we would corner him sooner or later if we staked out the computer, and what better thing to do to pass the time while we were waiting than to work on a little craft project? Kiley Rabbit went with the human to run errands this morning, and she saw the cutest seals, done with little initials, in the wedding section of the craft store. Of course, they didn't have the color we wanted, so we're going to make our own, to go on the seed envelopes. The first batch, that should produce at least 72 seals is in the kitchen letting the glue dry now. We're going to check it out in the morning, and then hopefully get right to work on our envelopes. So, our brother is safe for the moment, but he will be working starting tomorrow. We know he's in here now, and we have rabbits watching the door and both windows. He won't escape this time!

Rabbit Report

I feared for a bit that I wouldn't be able to get on here, to update you on the horrors I am facing. The human went out this morning, and of course a bunny hopped along with her. I was terribly upset, sure another sibling was forthcoming, but what happened was even worse! The human went by a craft store! A craft store just packed with horrible ideas for various favors and such, that are sure to lead to more work for me, if I can't dodge the rabbits. A batch of them have been lounging on the bed all evening, armed with gluesticks, stickers and colored paper, designing little seals to go on the seed envelopes to close them once they dump a scoop of seed inside. They finally hopped off to the kitchen, to use the iron to smooth the glue down, so I was able to get on the computer to alert my readers to the horror. I think I hear hopping! They must be done with their ironing for now! Got to go!

Wonderful News!

Hi, it's Bebe Bunny here to share the wonderful news! We got another roll of paper for the construction of seed favor envelopes, along with another large box of seed! We're going to be able to make well over 300 little seed favors for the reunion! Well, at least we're going to be able to make them as soon as we capture that brother of ours. Really, we don't know what his problem is. Work is good for you. Why look at the work we rabbits do with our garden each year, and all we accomplish! If our brother would just put a fraction of the effort he's spending on avoiding work into actually doing something, who knows how much he could achieve. We'll get him yet, though, never fear. We have a plan.

Today's Genealogy Issues

The human went out this afternoon, to meet with a relative, and she took the computer with her. That is the worst possible sign, that the family tree was going to be discussed. Then when she came home happy, I knew I was right. It appears that this relation is into genealogy as well, and the human is happily anticipating an exchange of genealogy information. That family tree is going to hit monster heights, I just know it. I wonder if I can get those pesky weather people to issue some sort of warning about falling nuts?

Today's Disaster

The human went to the book sale today, and to the archives too, and after this, I just have one question. What in the world have I done to offend the canine population? First the dog neighbors attack that cat and get the bunnies all fired up about getting to testify against them, and now I have learned that a batch of pups attended this horrible book event, and yet they didn't do a thing to stop the human from gathering material that is sure to lead to disaster for me. And there were more dogs by the archives, and they didn't raise a paw to prevent the human from getting those obituaries! Dogs, what did I do wrong, that you seem bound and determined to cause me such trouble?

Dogs Next Door

The dogs next door have done it this time. They assaulted a cat this afternoon. Of course, this was a terrible crime, and they do deserve to be drug away to jail for assault and cattery, but the assault isn't the worst part! When this crime was committed, the bunnies were in the den, keeping an eye out for me, and I suspect catching a garden show on TV while they were looking. The den window just happens to offer a perfect view of the scene of the crime! The rabbits are all witnesses! You should see how they're hopping about, preparing to give their testimony to the authorities! They're already looking at what earbows and outfits will look best when they have to go to court to testify against the dogs! And if they go to court, they human will likely have to accompany them! The courthouse is right down the street from the archives! I sense more genealogy research looming! Blasted dogs! Why couldn't they have behaved? Those rabbits are very industrious! What if they offer to go to the archive after the dogs are tried, to assist the human with her research? Who knows what might be acomplished!

Must Sue the Library

Well, I can't even watch television now. The rabbits are staking out the den trying to catch me. The only way I have avoided them so far was by slithering around on my belly, so my bell doesn't make any noise. I feel like a snake. At least they haven't staked out the computer, though, so I can hop on and alert you to the impending horrors. The library, that horrible place that is the associate of the genealogy archives, is having a book sale this weekend, and the human is determined to go. Do you know what she found at that horrible event last year? Genealogy magazines, that's what! Magazines just devoted to encouraging the growth of that horrible tree of hers! What if she finds more of them, this year, or worse yet, what if she finds genealogy books? The library ought to be ashamed of themselves, and worse yet, this sale is being held right down the street from the archives, so the human is talking about trotting down there as soon as she makes her purchases, to do a little research!

Horrors!

The rabbits are searching the living room for me at the moment, so I thought I would hop on here, and let you know the horror that occurred this morning. If I ever manage to escape the bunnies' pursuit, I swear I have to find an attorney to file suit on my behalf. I'm sure I have such an excellent case against Cousin Ruth, and her rotten twin brother, Cousin Cliff, too, who had the nerve to die, and to allow the human to find their obituaries with a detailed list of survivors! The human has already got in touch with one of Cousin Cliff's relations, one that she is sure will lead to hunting down information on Cousin Lucy and her siblings! She added pages to that book this morning and I don't want to think of the growth this will lead to, with that horrible tree!

We Must Give Him Credit

It's Bebe again. Well, I suppose we must give that brother of ours credit for sneakiness. He snatched a tuft of wool from Shelia Sheep, and stuffed it in his bell to try to keep us from hearing the jingling, and thus being able to hunt him down, to make him be industrious. Really, we have never seen anyone spend so much energy, trying to get out of working. We'll still find him, never fear, though. We can still hear his bell in spite of the stolen wool. It's just making more of a thumping sound instead of its usual jingling. And when we do catch him, we think we'll make him help assemble the maps too, a payback for making us spend all this time hunting him!

Bebe Here

I saw the post our brother made, and I want it known now that we rabbits know perfectly well that he is still in this house somewhere. We checked his family tree. He has no relatives in Toledo or Boise, and besides, we can still hear that bell of his. Really, we don't know what in the world is his problem with helping out on the seed envelope assembly line. It wouldn't kill him to show a bit of industry. Well, we'll find him. Apparently he forgot the big ears that we rabbits have, and their usefulness for hunting down a feline wearing a bell accessory.

I'm Not Here!

If any rabbits come hopping on here, looking for me, I am not here, and have possibly gone to visit relatives in Toledo. Or Boise. Or anywhere, really, but I am definitely not in the area. The bunnies obtained replacement glue sticks today. Would you believe that some foolish store actually sold them two sticks? So, they're all ready to start assembling those seed envelopes, and I know I saw one of them with my leash, to keep me in place in the assembly line! I hear hopping! Got to go and just remember, if the bunnies ask, I'm not here!

Today's Horror Report

The reunion and family tree horrors haven't reared their heads yet today, probably because the human got occupied with a bit of writing. I wonder if I could keep her occupied with that, as a way to save myself from various goodie chores the bunnies are planning to assign me. The only bad thing would be that sooner or later she would likely end up working on the rabbit novels, which will lead to gardening encouragement. Hmmmmm. Gardening encouragement would keep the rabbits outside, though, now wouldn't it? And if they were outside, they certainly couldn't be making me work. Perhaps I need to rethink my position on their garden after all. I'm sure the neighbors can find another place to live.

And Still More Relations

As if the cousins that the human just found and messaged on Facebook aren't bad enough, she just found another relation in the census as well. Really, Cousin Lucy ought to be ashamed of herself, letting herself, and her married name be found so easily. The human is sure that finding this one will lead to finding the rest of this horrible relation's siblings as well, and there are probably ten of those. My only comfort at the moment is that thank goodness, the census taker managed to spell Cousin Lucy's married name a different way on each census, which is making Googling her name much more difficult.

Facebook Issues

The human has done it again. She tracked down another batch of relatives on Facebook and sent a friend request. And this batch is very closely related too. Just my luck. I'm sure that once the human connects with them, a reunion invitation will be issued! And a reunion invitation will result in more goodie bags being needed! And more seed favors needing to be assembled! I will be working forever! Is there some way to block Facebook while there is still time?

Hehehe!

The rabbits started cutting out the squares for the little seed envelope favors this afternoon. They were just about to get out my leash, to make sure I would stay in my assigned place on the assembly line, when one of the bunnies called to the others that the glue sticks were missing. They've hopped all over the house, but the glue is totally gone. Isn't that such a shame? Hehehehehe!!! And they will never prove that I had anything to do with its disappearance, either.

Map Horror

I have some horror involving maps that I ought to report too. The human is planning on passing out a map of the family cemetery locations in the goodie bags, in case they go visiting the graveyards as part of the festivities. She wants to make sure that people won't get lost if they end up separated somehow. Anyway, she has pre-printed maps, and now she's planning to add little numbered stars representing cemeteries to customize the maps. And, of course, the bunnies offered to help. And, of course, like always, they have plans to draft me into this. Josie Rabbit just hopped in, and informed me that I have been assigned the number 5, which means I will be stuck forever between two rabbits, being forced to stick a star with a number on a map, while the bunnies insist I stick faster to keep the line moving!

Yes, the Stuff of Nightmares

Yes, the stuff of nightmares was deeper in the bags from Walmart, and I'm afraid I was just forced to see it, when the bunnies hopped in, and dug it out. They now have another pack of carrot seed in their paws! This is something called the chantenay carrot, only seven inches long, but with a rather alarming looking point. Why aren't there rules out there, governing the purchase of carrot seed, to prevent this sort of thing, such dangerous vegetables falling into the paws of rabbits?

More and More Horrors

The horrors keep coming, and really, there must be some way to hold Walmart accountable for all of this. I don't care if one of the human's relations has large amounts of stock in their business! That doesn't mean that they have to do so much to encourage that horrible reunion! The human dropped by there today, and came back with four large bags full of stuff for the goodie bags. I hate to think of the amount of candy that she obtained, along with two different kinds of stickers and something called nail decals. I'm sure there was more stuff, but I was afraid to poke any further into the bags to see just what. I'm sure that there were further items in there, that are worthy of nightmares!

Nametag Assignment

I was right. My name is down on that list, to work on the assembly line for the nametags. I waited until the rabbits hopped off for a few moments, to check the crayon supplies, and took a look at their little list. I'm down there, as a dotter, which is basically the same thing as a colorer. I'll be expected to apply the dots of color, to identify which branch of the family tree each person who is getting a nametag belongs to! That means I'll actually be expected to consult that genealogy and hunt down each relation before putting the color on the tag! I'll have nightmares for weeks over this!

More Work Planned

Every time I turn around, it seems like some other horror rears its head. I just checked the human's Amazon browsing history, and found that she has been looking at nametag kits, to lag to the reunion. Normally, I wouldn't have worried about this, since hopefully the things would be constructed on the computer, and wouldn't involve work for me, but then I found the bunnies working on another list! Apparently, the human is wanting to do something with the badges, using different colors to identify people from different branches of that horrible tree at the family reunion, which means that assembling the awful things by hand is called for! The bunnies are hard at work, designing a color code, and figuring out who will be doing what on the nametag assembly line. I fear that my name is on that list somewhere as a colorer, or possibly a cord inserter!

Carrot Seed

The rabbits have obtained a rather alarming pack of carrot seed. This seed is for a frightening looking carrot called Tendersweet, ten inches long, with a rather strong looking point at the end, just perfect, in the opinion of the bunnies, for poking me to make me work faster on various tasks related to that reunion or book assembly. Really, Walmart, the store that provided the seed, ought to be ashamed, although I doubt they are, seeing as a relative is involved in that horrible business!

More and More Horror

It's getting worse. Weren't the books bad enough? Apparently they weren't, though, because the human is happily arranging more horror. Now she is wanting to make these cardboard stand-up figures of various ancestors, to lag to the reunion for photo opportunities. She can get a very good deal, if they can do the figures in black and white at Kinkos, which means that she will be able to make multiple ones. The only problem is that Kinkos means that the figures will come with some assembly required, and who do you think will be doing the assembling?

More Horror on the Way

I can't believe this. I thought that the two reunion books that the human obtained from Amazon was the worst of the horror. I thought once those frightening things arrived, it would be over. But oh, no! I was checking her Amazon history, to make sure the human hadn't taken to obtaining goodies for bag stuffing there too, and you won't believe what I found! She's ordered a third reunion book! It's probably already in the mail, and she has high hopes it will be here before the weekend! My weekend is ruint! Does anyone know how I can obtain mailman repellent fast?

Horror is Here

The horror is here, I'm very sorry to say. Both of those family reunion books have arrived, and the human is thrilled with them, which I'm sure is a terrible sign. One of them even has a section on the horrors of the goodie bag, which will surely give her bad ideas, and will lead to a ton of stuffing work for me. Really, what were the authors of these books thinking, writing something so frightening, and then actually selling copies to my human?

Tombstones

My day keeps getting worse, although I'm not sure how that happened, what with the seed horrors I'm already facing. The day has somehow deteriorated, though, because I just heard the human eagerly chattering about tombstones, and obtaining replacement tombstones to honor some of her relations who fought in the Civil War. I can only assume, seeing as these relations are on that nutty family tree of hers, that these people were the ones who amused themselves letting multiple weapons fall into the paws on Betsy's ancestors, back during that war, leading to the Great Honey Theft of 1864. The human seems enthused about this idea of new tombstones, though, and I sense the potential for disaster. If she can get them, she's talking about a ceremony during the family reunion! That will surely lure in multiple, unexpected branches of that horrible tree! And that, in turn, will lead to the need for more goodie bags, and more work for me!

Seed Assemby List

The bunnies left their list for who is to do what on the seed envelope assembly line unguarded, while they were working on their list for the seed that they want to include in the goodie bags, so I checked it out, and just as I feared, they have my name down, to handle folding duties, once a rabbit has cut out the squares, and before a bunny pastes down the edges, and another rabbit dumps in a scoop of seed. They even drew a little picture of me, right by my name, I suppose in case any outside bunnies want to hop by to assist in my torture. What in the world am I going to do? They're talking about getting several more boxes of seed, and goodness knows how many bags, that will result in nightmarish amounts of envelopes that will have to be folded!

March Starting Off Worse

If the way it is starting is an indication, I probably ought to see who I need to talk to, to get March canceled now. The rabbits have obtained two giant boxes of seed for the assembling of seed favors. And even worse, they have obtained a giant roll of craft paper, from which they intend to cut out squares to make the little seed holders! They're going to construct seed containers by hand! And you know that they aren't going to be content to do all of the work themselves, either. They're going to try to draft me into assisting them with this job. My name is probably already on a list somewhere, possibly as a folder, or a paster.

Flood Update

The floodwaters are slowly receding, after the disaster the bunnies caused this afternoon, and so far it looks like our poor neighbors still have a home. Some people down the street are missing a large amount of bamboo that was growing in their yard, though. I can only hope that they continue to believe that the flood got it, and don't figure out that my panda siblings trotted down and snatched it all, while there was a flood going on to blame for its disappearance. Really, my siblings, especially the rabbits, ought to be totally ashamed of themselves!

Rain Dance Has Gone Too Far

If anyone asks, I was on here, chatting with my loyal readers, and certainly had nothing to do with the bunnies' latest rain dance, and the disaster that those rabbits have created this time. They were dancing, and they must have shook their tails a bit too much or something, because a flood is fast threatening our neighbor's house! Or maybe it wasn't an accident. Maybe it was part of some sort of bunny plot. If our neighbor's house was washed away, it would open up tons of gardening space for them in a few weeks! I'll bet anything that's what the little pests are up to! Well, I want it known right now that I was here, and can't be held responsible!

More Amazon Issues

I swear, Amazon is the most evil business that I have ever heard of. Really, they should be so ashamed of themselves. I was checking the human's purchase history there a bit ago, to make sure that no more reunion books had been purchased, when I found something that is almost worse! She just placed an order for a book called How to Wash a CAT!! I'm a cat! Why in the world is she purchasing an instructional manual on how to ruin my nice fur with soap and water? This is terrible! Isn't it bad enough that I am tormented with reunion materials and rabbits? And now there is a close encounter with water looming in my future, I'm sure.

Woe is Me

As if the human's book purchases weren't bad enough, she just got a message from Cousin Louise's granddaughter, like she was sure that she would, over the weekend. Just wonderful. And this relative is going to put her in touch with another relative, I fear one on Cousin Earl's limb of that awful tree. This is terrible. Just terrible. I know the human is going to end up inviting the lot of them to come to the family reunion. I just know it. I will end up having to pack a million goodie bags! My poor paws!

Must Sue Amazon

I must find a way to bring suit against Amazon right away. You will not believe this, but I was checking out their site a bit ago, and when I hit the order history, to make sure the rabbits hadn't snuck in any purchases, I found that Amazon allowed the human to purchase two books on planning FAMILY REUNIONS! TWO BOOKS! Does this business have no shame whatsoever? Do you know the number of horrible ideas that two books on reunion planning are sure to give the human? I must file a suit right away. Goodness knows what they could do next, if they are capable of doing something as foolish as that. Who knows, they will probably try to sell gardening books to the rabbits next.

Today's Relative Update

The human hasn't heard from that granddaughter of Cousin Louise again, although she's sure that she will hear something over the weekend. And what in the world am I going to do, if what she hears over the weekend results in an invitation to attend the family reunion being issued? The rabbits are already looking in catalogs, trying to pick out the best carrots to use to poke me during goodie bag stuffing, and I don't like the look of the points on some of those vegetables!

Sue Arizona

I must find a lawyer right away to sue the state of Arizona. It seems like everyone else is suing them, after all, but I'm sure that all of those humans don't have nearly as good of a case as I do. Would you believe that foolish state has posted death certificates online? And, of course, the human had a relation who managed to die in Arizona, which means she trotted over to the free site right away to download his death certificate and to collect all the information that she could. Really, that state should be ashamed of itself, and if those feline lawyers that I know ever get finished taking the national parks to court, I know I will be due a large settlement!

Worse and Worse

Oh, this just keeps getting worse. The human sent a message to Cousin Louise's granddaughter, and she's already heard back, and sent a reply in response. The rabbits are checking out the human's list of people who need bags right now, and debating if they should go ahead and add these relations or not. I am doomed. Cousin Louise's family will only lead to Cousin Earl's relations, and then possibly to Cousin Frances and Cousin Margaret too. I will be stuffing bags forever!

Oh, NO!!

Oh, no! It's getting worse! As if it isn't bad enough when the human finds dead relative, now she has found a potential living one! It looks as if Cousin Louise is still alive, and worse yet, she has a ton of family photos, which likely means she has other, nightmarish family information! So now, the human is happily amusing herself hunting this relation down. What in the world am I going to do if she finds her? It will surely lead to her being issued a reunion invitation, and thus to more stuffing work for me!

Help! Help! Help!

Oh, someone, HELP!! I just realized something nightmarish! The human is amusing herself looking up cousins on Facebook, and messaging them to request information. Well, I'm sure that the family reunion will be mentioned to them at some point, so what if she decides to invite them? Then, they will obviously need goodie bags, which will mean the human will have to obtain more bag construction materials. And then, I, will in turn be expected to assist with stuffing these bags! Isn't it bad enough that currently almost a hundred bags are planned? Who knows how many more might be necessary if the human decides to drag in some of these new relations? I will be working forever, likely being poked with carrots by the rabbits the entire time, with demands that I stuff bags faster!

Horrible Goodie Update

I ought to sue Walmart. I really should, although, seeing as one of the human's cousins has large amounts of stock in the place, I suppose I shouldn't be surprised that they seem to spend every waking hour, and a few hours when decent people should be sleeping, plotting to assist the human in increasing amounts of horror. The human was thrilled to find a giant sale there today, and she came trotting home with alarming amounts of mazes, more kaleidoscopes, and these little heart shaped boxes, suitable for holding candy. Which, of course, indicates more candy might be purchased soon. Betsy Bear is already getting extra snitching sacks, in anticipation of robberies to come, due to the increase in child bait. Will these horrors never end?

AAAAAHHHH!!!

I was so distracted by that bear that came trotting in that I almost missed the true horrors of the evening. I'll bet that's why she was petting me so nicely, too, to try to distract me! I should have known that a bear released from the mission had to be up to something. Oh, this is terrible! Cousin Evelyn is DEAD! And of course, she couldn't die quietly, without fanfare, now could she? She had to leave a nice, detailed obituary, which the human was able to use to hunt down her SURVIVORS on Facebook! As soon as the funeral is over tomorrow, she's going to send out friend requests. Oh, we are all doomed. This is sure to lead to nightmarish growth of that tree, and probably a ton of falling nuts, too. Cousin Evelyn should be ashamed of herself!

Today's Sibling Report

Well, the mission let another one out. I know that place is supposed to help the homeless, but really, do they have to help them by arranging for them to move in here? The human dropped by there this afternoon, after a visit to the doctor, and of course a bear pounced, and begged to move in. I am now up to 669 siblings. My one comfort about this bear is that at least she knows to pet with the grain of my fur, not against it.

Goodies and the Penguins

Sniff, sniff, sniff. I thought today would be marginally safer, with those lazy mailmen taking the day off. I really did. No mail at least meant that the human wouldn't get any horrible reunion materials that way, or at least I thought it meant that. Little did I know that those people in the little brown trucks were still trotting around, and one of them dropped by here with a giant envelope of materials from the local aquarium, with enough brochures and coupons for every bag! This aquarium has just opened a new penguin area! Needless to say, my penguin siblings were thrilled to see the brochures, and now they are lounging by the rabbits, hard at work on party invitations. They figure while the humans are having their parties, they will just invite all of these penguins down for a little pool party. Just perfect. Not only will I have to deal with the human's reunion in a few months, that will undoubtedly encourage nightmarish growth of that tree, but I'll have to put up with the penguins, taking over the pool and partying forever! Do you know how much noise a penguin party creates?

Et Tu, Dogs?

Oh, and speaking of the goodie horrors, I just learned that a DOG was present in the store when the human was gathering these things. A dog was present, and the canine in question didn't do a single thing to prevent the growing goodie horrors! Really, this pup ought to be ashamed of himself. Is this because of those comments I made when I was poked in the doghouse? Because, really, you canines can't hold that against me at all. I'm sure your doghouses are lovely places, and I might like one too, if I wasn't being forced in there, and made to stay there by a batch of delinquent rabbits. There is no need to punish me by assisting with the goodie horrors!

This Afternoon's Goodie Horror Report

I am very sorry to say that the goodie horrors are growing. The human went trotting out today, I suspect in the company of rabbits, and came back lagging numerous large bags. Here's the result: more erasers, tops, pens, rings and soft balls, slinkies, rubber bouncy balls, something called jumpy hearts, stampers, stretchy figures and bug tattoos. And, in an even worse move, she lagged home five large boxes of candy to go in these bags! Candy! Candy is child bait for Betsy Bear! What was the human thinking? Do you know how many children five boxes of candy could lure in for Betsy to torment? Can I be declared an accessory to that bear's crimes, should the rabbits go through with their threats to make me work on packing these bags?

Goodie Horrors Growing

The horrors that are those planned goodie bags are growing, I am very sorry to announce. I suggest you send all small children away from the computer now, before they can see what these horrors contain and become frightened. Either that, or before they can decide they want a bag too, and demand to attend this horrible reunion event. The bunnies have a list of materials for the bag, and the amount of stuff so far is truly terrifying. This is what is going into the bags so far: bubbles, card games, bright gel pens, play dough, cars for boys and rings for girls, frisbees, yo-yos, paddle balls, multiple pencils, kaleidoscopes, several erasers, stencils, tops, balls, mazes, puzzles, crayons and coloring books. Then there are fancy soaps and lip glosses so far for the teens. I don't want to think of what there is for the adults. And I don't like the rabbits' little list either. I know that my name is on there somewhere, probably next to one or more goodie items, that they will be expecting me to pack into the bags come reunion time!

Horror in the Mail

A horror that I almost fear to mention arrived in the mail bright and early this morning. The Department of Rabbitculture (aka The Department of Agriculture) shipped another plant start down to my delinquent bunny siblings. It's something called an evening primrose, and according to the page I found when I researched its dangers, it is a thug like plant. I can only assume that bodes ill for our neighbors and their continuing occupation of their homes, come spring.

Ignore the Last Post

Really, I have got to find bunnyproofing for this computer. Surely some company offers such a service. I can't even take five minutes to check my food dish out without a rabbit hopping on here. Please ignore the last post. Normally, I would whole-heartedly support anything that might keep Betsy tied up, and out of my fur, but I don't think this is going to work out that way. That bear started chuckling evilly when she heard of the suit, and promptly placed an order for more snitching sacks. I'm afraid she has plans to send her attorney to court to represent her, while she raids those poor bears' dens since she can be sure they won't be home. I don't want to imagine how much honey they will loose as a result of this suit.

Visited a Park Lately?

Hi, it's Bebe here again to ask for some help. We bunnies are assisting the firm of Katt, Katt and Katt with a little legal matter. They're representing a group of bears that live up in the mountains, and who have been victimized by our delinquent bear sister, Betsy. Anyway, we promised them that we would ask around and try to find some people who can testify as to the poor management on the part of the rangers. They are sure that such a sloppy job counts as negligence, and failure to protect. Every time we've visited, there have been numerous signs up warning against feeding the poor, hard working bears of the park, but there hasn't been a thing warning against Betsy. Did you know, she's even strolled into their welcome center and done things that were totally unwelcome, and yet the rangers didn't do a thing to stop her? With such poor management, is it any wonder that she's victimized those poor bears as much as she has? Katt, Katt and Katt are sure that they will be able to get a large settlement for these needy bears for loss of honey, hibernation harrassment, and the general pain and suffering of having to deal with Betsy, but they need more witnesses. So, if you've visited a park, and have noticed the lack of appropriate Betsy Bear precautions being taken, contact us today!

Today's Update

Sorry I didn't post yesterday. I was in hiding, in case the authorities came looking for Betsy Bear in connection to those mass thefts of Valentine's Day foods. I guess all of the weddings she raided had insurance, though, and the couples who had hearts stolen were probably looking for a good reason to break up anyway, for it seems that her crimes have gone unreported once again. Now if people would just remove the remains of their stolen food from the backyard so we can all forget about this, it would be much appreciated. I don't like the way the bunnies keep checking out those cake stands and cake tier holders, and commenting on how they would be just perfect to stack plant pots on, so for goodness sakes, if Betsy snitched and ate your wedding cake, get here and collect the remains before they give the bunnies more bad ideas!

Valentine Horrors

Well, I don't have a new sibling yet, although the bunnies keep pointing out to me that the night is still young, and Amazon is happy to provide new family members. I can only hope they do not decide to take in an elephant from there. After the horrors I have experienced today, that is the last thing that I need. Betsy was out in full force today, celebrating the day of love by looting. I do hope no one wanted to experience romance with food on this happy occasion, for if you did, you are doomed to a massive disappointment. Betsy took to the air in that purloined sled, and I'm not entirely sure what she did, and I'm not sure it's safe to know, but there are now feathers in the swimming pool, and that delinquent bear has a bow and arrows in her possession. I can only assume that she attacked Cupid for all of his heart shaped boxes of chocolate. Should your sweetheart have made the claim that one of those was purchased for you, and then went missing, please see the rabbits tomorrow to remove the remains from the backyard. Oh, and should you have been trying to get married today, well, really you ought to have known better, shouldn't you? Everyone knows that the wedding chapels do a brisk business today, and Betsy has made careful note of all of them. You can collect your cake toppers in the morning. Please line up to the left of the people collecting the remains of the boxes of chocolate.

Still in the Doghouse

I'm still in the doghouse, I'm afraid, over that minor human injury thing. The only reason I was able to get on was that those bunnies got distracted, looking at stuff, and making notes for things to poke in those horrible goodie bags. Really, how long are they going to demand that I'm punished, anyway? Isn't what is likely going to happen tomorrow bad enough? The human is having more issues with her glases, and will likely need to visit the store again. Every time she goes to that horrible business, I end up with more siblings! Who knows what horrible increases in family size might await me tomorrow.

Bebe Bunny Reporting

What was our brother doing on here? Really, he ought to be ashamed of himself. He is in the doghouse, and is not allowed online. If anyone sees him posting on here, could you email us right away to let us know? He's been a seriously bad kitty, first maiming a human like he did, and then with the poor excuse for a salad he produced to try to distract us. He didn't bother to provide dressing, and we know that he munched down all of the cheese toppings before he handed it over.

In the Doghouse

I'm afraid I'm in the doghouse, and might I say, I really don't know how any canines reading this stand the place? So cramped, and I'm sure there are fleas lurking about. The humans insisted, though, after a minor incident. Really, they're making way to much of a big deal over it. How was I to know that a human could possibly bleed that much if a claw grazed them in the wrong location? Really, it wasn't my fault at all, but the humans are kicking up a terrible fuss over the situation, so in the doghouse is where I am, and those rabbits are keeping an eye on me to make sure I stay there. I had to distract them with a salad so I could get on.

Sibling Report

Well, the mission let another animal escape. The human dropped by there as I feared she would, after getting her glasses fixed, and of course an animal pounced on her the second she stepped in the door, demanding to be allowed to move in. At least this one was a bear, not a bunny. That is the only slightly positive thing I can see in the situation at the moment. I now have 668 siblings.

ACK!!

I can't believe this. I turned my back for a second, and what happens but that rabbit hops on and messes up my blog with a post about those horrible seed labels. I really have got to find some sort of bunnyproofing to prevent this sort of thing from happening. Please dis-reguard that rabbit's post. The bunnies don't need anyone posting suggestions that will only encourage them.

Seed Labels

Hey, it's Bebe Bunny here again. Our brother's busy moaning about the human going to the glass store in the morning, and the potential for such a trip to result in more siblings. Really, he ought to be a bit less selfish. There is absolutely nothing wrong with her helping out the homeless like she does. Anyway, while he's fussing, I thought I would pop on and let you know that we've designed our little seed labels. Now all that's left to do is to print them out, but that's where we've run into a problem. We aren't sure what color of paper to use. We were wanting to use orange, but then it occurred to us that it might be harder to get that color of paper, so now we're stuck. If anyone has any suggestions for an appropriate paper color for our cute little seed labels, please click the comment button and let us know. Thanks!

Have Pity

I can only hope that someone will have pity on me, in the face of the disaster that might be coming my way tomorrow. The human is having issues with her glasses, and thinks she needs to go back to the glass store. And, as I posted on Monday, thanks to the wait she had the last time that she was there, I ended up with six new siblings! What if this visit results in more? What if it results in the arrival of more rabbits? Our neighbors are not insured for more rabbits!

Lousy Cousin

Does anyone have any suggestions for the best way to find an attorney to bring a suit against a cousin? All of the feline ones that I know are occupied at the moment, filing suits on the behalf of various bears against the park service for failure to protect them from Betsy Bear. If you have visited a national park, be prepared to be called to court soon. Anyway, I'm sure I have an excellent case against Cousin Stella, who had the nerve to die a few days ago, and then had the nerve to have a detailed obituary, with a list of numerous survivors, published in the local newspaper! Needless to say, the human was very pleased to see this, and is, I fear, making notes from the obituary to add alarming amounts of limbs to that tree of hers. Really, Cousin Stella should be ashamed, and I am sure that I am due a large settlement, due to the trauma she has caused by encouraging tree growth!

Bunnyproofing

Does anyone know how I can install bunnyproofing on the computer? The rabbits found a really good deal on little seed envelopes for the human's reunion goodie bags, and now they are bugging me to get off, so they can go online and work out labels for the seed. Naturally, I want to put a stop to this before they can get started. Labeling seed can only lead to them obtaining more seed, after all. So, how can I control them? I'm afraid passwords don't work. There are so many rabbits hopping around all the time that at least one will likely see me entering it.

Siblings

The humans didn't go to the country today, which means the cows have at least a few more days before they are in terrible trouble with their farmer. My human had broke her glasses, and had to trot down to the glass store this morning to get them replaced. That wasn't the major problem, though. The problem was that there was a considerable wait, and you won't believe what the human did. She dropped by the local mission, and was promptly pounced on by a batch of homeless animals, who begged to come home with her. I am very sorry to say that I now have 667 siblings, including a new bunny sibling. And frankly, I am very alarmed about that rabbit. It is dressed in a little boxing outfit, including gloves. The rabbits are dangerous enough when armed with carrots. What am I going to do if there is a professional fighter bunny in the house? Really, the mission ought to be ashamed of themselves, letting so many animals escape!

The Country and the Cows

The humans took a little trip to the country today, to check on the country cottage, and of course, Betsy Bear trotted along to torment those poor bears who have the misfortune to have their den near the lake. I just hope they thought to invest heavily in honey insurance before they settled down to snooze back in the fall. Betsy's crimes aren't the worst result of this visit, though. While she was up there, looting and pillaging, she happened to spot several herds of cows, and noted all of the manure in their pastures. And, of course, once she got home, she shared this news with the rabbits in exchange for a suitable honey bribe. The bunnies were absolutely thrilled, and now they are hopping everywhere, gathering rakes, shovels and sacks, and making plans to ride along with the humans when they go back tomorrow to check out a possibly damaged shingle, so that they can offer to clean up the cows' dwelling for them. They're sure the cows will be thrilled to let them help out, and the manure will be wonderful for their garden. Really, those rabbits ought to be ashamed. What are the cows going to do, when their farmer comes along, looking to collect that manure to sell, and it is all gone? How in the world will they ever explain that they were bad cows, and handed it over to a batch of bunnies? The cows will be in a ton of trouble, and it will all be those rabbits' fault!

Goodie Gathering

I'm very sorry to announce that the human's work on those horrible goodie bags is proceeding well. She came home today toting giant amounts of brochures and coupons to be poked in there, and she has plans to look for more in the next day or so. That many coupons and discounts are sure to attract plenty of relations to that horrible reunion, and even worse, it will keep them hanging around longer, which will only give them more time to contribute to the growth of that horrible family tree. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I can do to prevent this? There is way too much paper to eat.g

Year of the Sheep Too

During my research on the horror that is the Year of the Rabbit, you won't believe what I found out. There is a year devoted to sheep, too. Those poor, poor sheep. Normally, you would think having a year devoted to you would be a great thing, but I know my polar bear sisters all too well, The second those poor sheep get together to try to celebrate their year, the polar bears will tackle them with scissors for sheering. They will spend the entire year as nudists! Poor sheep. Does anyone know the best way for them to let the Chinese know that they appreciate the thought, but they need to trade this year for something else, possibly sweaters, if the polar bears have their way?

Year of the Rabbit Has Begun

Well, the Year of the Rabbit just started, and what a horrible start it is of to, too. There were a bunch of rabbits hopping around the backyard all day today, celebrating and helping my bunny siblings poke out stakes to mark where they want to install the garden as soon as they're able to start digging again, probably after that storm the groundhogs arranged passes over the weekend. At the current rate the bunnies are staking things, the only space that won't be part of their garden soon is the concrete around the swimming pool and they're thinking of making large planters out of kiddie swimming pools to take up some of that space. The Year of the Rabbit is off to a nightmarish start!

Groundhog's Day Storm

The groundhogs would like me to see if all of you are enjoying the nice storm they arranged in honor of Groundhog's Day, today. I told them that it was probably a bit much, but for some reason the little fluffy things were sure that you would all just love a few feet of snow, to trap you in your homes so you will have plenty of time to consider the wonder that is the groundhog. Really, what loon came up with the idea of giving the groundhogs their own holiday, anyway? Was it the same person who thought up that Year of the Rabbit thing?

Library Lunacy

The loons are out in full force at the library, is all that I can say, and I do hope my poor, loyal readers have hiding places prepared, for you will surely want to head for them once you hear the latest news. The human trotted by the local university library today, and she was amazed at the wealth of genealogy materials the place offered. She came home with her arms full, and I'm very afraid she is plotting a return trip as soon as possible. And, to make matters worse, because the grandhuman has connections to the school, the human is permitted to check out books for a year at a time! A year! Do they know the damage that could result from the human having such materials in her possession for a year?

Basket Update Too

I thought I would make this a separate entry, to spare you from seeing too much horror at once. The bunny who hopped out to that plant sale, well, after she went there, she decided to pay a visit to another sale, one that has been doing a ton to supply the human with stuff for the reunion and the planned goodie bags and baskets. The bunny came home lagging 18 more bags to be used to assemble goodie baskets! 18 goodie basket bags! Have you ever heard something so alarming in your life, and I just know those rabbits are planning to draft me into helping with the assembling too! I will be forced to work forever, if those bunnies have their way, and I don't want to think of the growth of that horrible tree that these goodie things might lead to.

Today's Rabbit Horrors

The bunnies got their year off to a rather nice start according to them, when one of them hopped out this afternoon, and came back lagging a large sack full of plant bulbs. Apparently some church was having a sale, and this foolish religious institution allowed a rabbit to stroll away with the makings for over fifty plants. Have you ever heard of something so frightening? The rabbits are trying to claim that these are just flowers, and are harmless, but they can't fool me. One of the packs clearly says grape hyacinth. Do they really think I don't know what grapes are? That church ought to be ashamed, contributing to the bunnies' delinquency like they did, and at such a reasonable price too!

Facing the Year of the Rabbit

I would suggest that all of my readers make plans to lock yourselves safely in your houses now, until this year is over, or else you are sure to meet a horrible fate. I spotted another of my bunny siblings' lists of things they need at the food co-op, and they have down a pound of mung beans, adzuki beans and pinto beans as part of their planned Year of the Rabbit celebrations! Do you know how many beans make up a pound, and pinto beans have a strong history of being vicious and expansionistic. Not only is the neighborhood doomed if this purchase happens, but I suspect this part of the state is as well!

The Year of the Rabbit!

What did I ever do to offend the Chinese? Is this because I don't eat their food? Did that offend them, or something? It isn't my fault, I will have them know. I would happily munch down rice, if the rabbits weren't always spoiling it with various vegetables, and I won't get into what they like to do to noodles. Really, they shouldn't hold that against me at all, but apparently they are, for they have arranged something so horrifying that I almost fear to write it. They have declared this year the Year of the RABBIT! And it was starting out to be such a nice year too, and then they did this. Needless to say, my siblings were thrilled with this happy news, and they're hopping around, making lists now of how they want to celebrate their year, little lists that I'm sure will make my year a disaster, and that will render our neighbors homeless. How many noodles do you think the Chinese would insist I eat in order to get this year canceled, or changed to something else? What about giving the mouse another year? He just opened a hotel for my kind, so I'm sure he deserves a year much more that my delinquent bunny siblings!

Bunny List

I got my paws on that list the bunnies have for their baskets, and just as I feared, and just as I feared, on the bottom beneath lists of teas, fancy soaps, mugs and such, there is my name with a little note to the side that says basket assembler. They ARE planning to put me to work as soon as they get the materials to assemble these horrible things! Does anyone know the best way to prevent this? I thought of eating the list, but honestly, the paper tastes awful.u

Rabbits on the Loose!

I can't believe this. I was gone five minutes to get a snack, and what do I come back to find but the bunnies have amused themselves messing up my blog again, and even worse, trying to recruit my readers to assist them with their horrible basket plans! I'm very sorry about that. Really, I need to get a lock for this computer or something to keep them out when I'm away. Does anyone know the best way to install bunnyproofing?

Basket Voting

Hey, it's Bebe Bunny again. Our brother trotted off to check out his food bowl, so I thought I would hop on for a minute. I'm sure you heard him complaining about the goodie baskets we talked to the human about making to either gift or sell at the reunion. Really, we don't know what his problem is with something so nice. Our human's been reading tons on improving reunions and what others are doing right for reunions, and we are sure that the baskets, along with the bags are a great way to go. So, here's where you readers come in. What sort of basket would you be interested in? A food goodie basket from the food co-op is a must, along with a tea basket. We can get the materials for that there too. Really, the co-op is just the nicest store, and they're always so happy to see rabbits hopping in. The human's thinking a basket with beauty stuff, too. What else would you suggest? We were thinking books, Christmas stuff, possibly even a pet basket. Please send all suggestions here! We really need your advice!

Basket Woes

The human is going to make those goodie baskets, just like the rabbits suggested. She came home today, toting a bunch of basket bags that some store foolishly had on sale, just for that purpose. She has enough to make eight baskets, and I'm sure she will be able to get more basket assembly supplies if she needs them. Now, the bunnies are lounging on the bed, making lists of items that need to go into the baskets, and I don't want to think about how many of those items can be obtained at the food co-op right next to the seed! And as if that isn't bad enough, the little pests are chattering about the best way to assemble these baskets, and I don't like the way that they are looking at me during these talks, like they are marking me down for basket packing duty!

Growing Goodie Horrors

The goodie horrors are growing. I knew that my exile would give those rabbits too much time to come up with bad ideas. Bunnies need careful supervision at all times, in order to prevent them from getting horrible notions in their fluffy little heads, after all. Now they are thinking the human could make up gift baskets too, to either sell to raise money for horrible, family related activities such as obtaining more material for book assembly, for tombstone cleaning or purchase, or for who knows what other horrors that will encourage the growth of that awful tree, or to give out to relatives who have hit milestones. And of course, the bunnies think a great place to get things for these goodie baskets would be at the food co-op, the place that caters to rabbits and the encouragement of rabbit delinquency! The human has several cousins who are really into the kinds of things sold there, so the bunnies told her that they're sure she could get a good price for a goodie basket from that horrible business! And I think she's listening to them! I know I spotted her working on a list of the best materials to put into such a goodie basket! What in the world will I do if she decides to make the horrible thing up? I'm sure the bunnies will want to hop along with her to get the materials, and that can only lead to their getting their paws on frightening amounts of seed!

Favor Horrors!

I got back on just in time to hear of the latest horrors, involving the human and her plans for those reunion goodie bags. The bunnies had lots of time to poke around on the computer while I was exiled, and they found out that some people offer seeds as party favors. So, naturally, the little cotton tailed trouble-makers hopped to the computer right away to look for information on how to best assemble these things, and now they are all clustered, chattering to the human about what wonderful gifts these would be for the family reunion goody bags! They're even planning to offer their services to design little labels for the seed bags if the human agrees with them, which I'm sure she will. And you know the bunnies will use the purchase of seeds for the goodie bags as an opportunity to obtain extra seed for themselves, too. I'm sensing their horrible garden growing by leaps and bounds! And what if the human goes to the archives? The store with the best selection of cheap seed is right there on the bus route!

I'm Back!

I'm back! The human has finally decided that the flea treatment has worn off enough to permit me to set paw in her room again, and can I say it was just in time too? I can't believe what has happened to my nice little blog in my absence! Gardening posts, quilt posts! I'm surprised they didn't let Betsy Bear post on the best ways to snatch candy from infants! It will take me forever to get this place straightened out! And can I say now, how sorry I am that my loyal readers were subjected to such horrors as my siblings' attempts to blog?

Polar Bear Posting

Hello. The snow did stop, so I decided to do what the bunnies were bugging me about, and venture out of the den to post. My name is Annann Polar Bear, and I'm here today to talk about quilts. The simplest way to make a quilt is to find a fat quarter, with a print too nice to cut up. You take that, and then you sew a border on all four sides. If you happen to be a larger animal, you might need two or more borders to get the size you want. Once you have your top to the size you need, pick a piece of nice looking fabric for the backing. Now, we come to the most important part, the batting! We can't say enough about the wonders of wool for batting, and the best wool is fresh off of the sheep! This is the tricky part of quilting, now. First, you must find a sheep. We recommend mapquest for hunting them down. You will need at least two for this, someone to hold down the sheep and someone to weld the scissors for sheering. You won't believe the fuss those sheep put up over handing over wool. They ought to be ashamed of themselves! Here's how we do it. One polar bear pounces on the sheep, while another snags the back hooves, then the cubs move in with the scissors. We also recommend wearing earplugs during this, to keep from hearing the complaints of the sheep, and their threats to contact lawyers and authorities. You will need at least a sheep's worth of wool for a good quilt, possibly more if you are a larger animal, or have made the mistake of making your home in a colder climate. Once you have your wool, stuff it between the two layers of fabric, and secure the layers together in whatever manner you wish. You can use a lot of little, fancy stitches, or thread and knots, whatever works best for you. Then, once you have the two layers secured, use a long, skinny piece of fabric to bind the outer edges and you're done! There, quiltmaking made simple and don't worry, the sheep haven't been able to find legal representation yet!

Garden Plans

Hello, it's Bebe Bunny, here to report on our plans for the upcoming gardening season with some help from my sisters Kiley and Josie Rabbit. Now is the time to start making plans for your garden, and we're already hard at work. We've been going through the seed catalogs, and taking an inventory of what we have already. Hopefully by March, we will be ready to start the germination process. Our neighbor offered to assist with digging for the garden this year. Wasn't that so nice of her? And I'm sure the dogs who live with her are going to offer to lend a paw as well, so we need to have lots of seeds ready to go. We tried direct planting last year, but honestly, the sprouting method from the year before, using the coffee filters and the plastic bags worked better, so we plan to go back to that for this season. The top of the hot water heater is an excellent location for seed germination, in case you plan to try this yourself. We can't say enough good things about it. Our grandhuman complained terribly, though, about our seed once we moved them to the little plastic containers on the table, so we're looking for plans to make another germination location, possibly inside the dead dryer. If any fish read this blog, and are planning to upgrade your home with new lights, we would be happy to take the old ones off of your fins to use for this purpose. We're sure, with the dryer bin removed and some lights put in, that the frame will make the perfect, warm home for our seed. I'll be happy to give more details later. Tomorrow, if the snow stops and they're willing to come out, though, the polar bears will report on quilt assembly!

Bebe Blogging

The increased guard seems to be keeping our brother out very nicely, I'm happy to say. Really, he ought to be ashamed, with how he keeps trying to sneak in like he is, even though he still smells of his flea treatment. Luckily we rabbits know how to handle him. So, until he is allowed back, which might not be for a long time, especially if more fleas are found, my siblings and I will be entertaining you. Did you know gardening season is upon us? Tomorrow, I will post on our plans for this happen event, and will offer tips on the best way to get your garden going! And if the polar bears can be convinced to set paw out of their den, they will offer you quilting tips on Friday.

Bebe's Update

This blogging is actually a lot of fun. I suppose I see why our brother enjoys it so, but still, that doesn't justify his attempts to creep in here when he knows full well that he's banned. We can still smell the flea treatment on him, and we take no chances on the human ending up covered in hives. You won't believe it, but he tried rolling in a can of peas as a bribe just a bit ago! Really, does he think that we are all dumb bunnies? And how would we get into the peas, even if we were interested, anyway? He certainly didn't bring the can opener in as well!

Bebe Bunny Again

Oh, that naughty brother of ours crept on the computer when he knows he is supposed to stay out of here! Can you believe he did that, knowing what happened with the human and the hives last time? And he took advantage of an infant bunny too, waving carrots under her little pink nose, until she hopped away from her guard post! Well, we're going to take care of that right now. The rabbits assigned to guard duty are having their ranks doubled! Let's see him get past us again. And we're dragging all bags of carrots in here so he can't try the distraction trick too. Really, he ought to be ashamed, and now the computer keyboard is going to have to be cleaned!

Back

Okay, I'm back. The human is taking a shower, so I distracted the rabbit guarding the computer with carrots so I could get on. Honestly, what in the world is the human thinking, banning me from the computer like that, due to a little flea treatment? It isn't like I asked her to put it on me, after all, so why in the world should I be punished with the lack of computer time, just in case said treatment might turn her into a hive covered mess? Really, it isn't fair at all, but of course those rabbits are all on the human's side, and are keeping a close eye on me. Luckily the baby bunny was taking this shift, and she's a bit more distractable than some of the others. Wait. Do I hear hopping? Got to go!

Bebe Bunny Here!

Hey, this is Sir Pinky's bunny sister Bebe with an update on why our brother isn't posting. He's fine, but our grandhuman spotted a flea yesterday, so he was caught, and flea treatment was applied. Unfortunately, our human suspects she might be allergic to something in the flea treatment, so Pinky's been banished from her room, the home of the computer, until it has a chance to wear off.

Reunion Work

I'm afraid I have alarming horrors to report in regards to that human's planned family reunion. She's making plans for goodie bags, to lag to it, in order to lure more people in with promises of gifts. As part of this goodie bag assembling, she's been writing various places, requesting donations, based on something that she read in one of her magazines for planners of such horrifying events. I'm very frightened to report that she has already received a positive reply from the local zoo, offering her coupons! Really, doesn't the zoo have enough troubles with repeated penguin escapes, due to my siblings scheduling parties? What if the human's reunion decides to schedule a group zoo trip due to those coupons? Every penguin in the place will surely use such a thing as the perfect opportunity to fly the coup, and trot over here to hang around! I will be up to my pointed ears in penguins!

Continuing Horrors, Almost Too Many to Count

Sorry I haven't posted in a bit, but I didn't want to frighten all of you too much with the continuing horrors. We have had more snow, and you don't want to think about how that particular bit of weather is making the polar bears act. I hope all of the sheep in the area have had time to get wool insurance is all that I can say about that. And then, to make matters worse, the water on top of the pool cover is frozen, making the perfect skating rink for the penguins. They've been zooming around out there, and I know that I've spotted a few extra penguins that I'm sure were listed on the zoo's website as escapees. I really ought to see about scouting out a better hiding place, in case the zoo comes around, looking for those fugitive birds. And then there is the horror of the human's work on the family reunion. But I will share that tomorrow, so you won't be too frightened to sleep tonight.

Worse than Yesterday

Today is worse than yesterday, somehow, even though yesterday I was facing starvation or being converted to vegetarianism. That horrible weatherman is calling for snow, and naturally the polar bears are in a panic. They keep talking about how warm and cozy the hotel the humans stayed at was, and are clustered on the bed, begging to return there right away before the evil snow starts to fall. What if the humans decide to head up that way? They could get snowbound, and then what would happen to me, here alone with the bunnies and their plot to convert me to munching veggies? I wonder if I could convince the rabbits that they all should go along with the humans, to spread the word of the wonders of vegetables to others, instead of just sharing it with me?

Tale of Horror

I'm back, and with a nightmarish tale of horror. I suggest you hide all small children now, so they don't accidentally learn of this. One of the limbs on the human's alarming family tree took ill, so my humans had to leave unexpectedly to see to this relation. At first I thought it might work out great, since six out of the seven polar bears currently in residence here and Betsy Bear departed with her, but then the humans were gone for almost three days! I ran out of food! My dish was totally empty. My backup dish was totally empty! The backup dish for the backup dish was empty! And as if not having food wasn't bad enough, the rabbits offered to provide food! They're vegetarians, and you should have seen the looks they were giving me, and the chuckling. They saw this as the perfect opportunity to convert me to their vegetarian lifestyle. They were planning to stuff me with salads, carrots, and broccoli until I gave in and decided to follow their chosen food plan. If they humans hadn't returned when they did, I might have been a vegetarian at this very moment. What in the world am I going to do if they have to leave again?

New Year's Update

Sorry I haven't posted in awhile. I've been laying low in case the authorities came poking around wanting to find out where Betsy got that load of electronics that she lagged to the pawn shop. Really, if you want to see a truly frightening sight, imagine that bear coming trotting in, lagging a large pile of money. Heaven only knows what she is planning to do with the cash. Oh, and those reindeer are still tied up in the backyard too. I'm sure that's a horrible sign that she's planning to use them for some additional crimes later on in the month. Or perhaps for Valentines' Day. Being able to get airborne would probably help her to attack Cupid for his candy easier.

Betsy's Christmas Success

I'm very sorry to say that Christmas was a big success for Betsy. I do hope that no one asked Santa for any gifts that they urgently needed, because those wishes are doomed to go unfilled. All edible goodies have been munched down, and any valuables such as jewelry or electronics are going to the local pawn shop come Monday to raise more money for snacks. And if you requested a sweater, Betsy's likely already sold it to a sheep somewhere in anticipation of their upcoming wool loss due to the polar bears. The best thing that I can suggest for all of you, is to just try to forget this holiday ever happened. That's what I'm going to be doing, or at least I will if Betsy ever does something with the reindeer currently loitering in the backyard.

Facebook Crime Wave

Betsy finally did it. She joined one of the criminal games on Facebook under the human's account. She has been playing for under an hour now, and is already up to level five! I'm sure that's the worst possible sign. The humans are going out to eat in a bit, too, and the computer will be unguarded. That means Betsy can play without supervision, and get alarming amounts of criminal ideas, likely until Santa comes!

Santa's Doom Approaches

Poor Santa. In less than twenty-four hours, he is doomed. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what should be done with the reindeer, once Santa falls into Betsy's clutches? The prancing and pawing upon the roof will surely disturb my rest if they're allowed to stay unsupervised. Betsy has hung the chimney with traps, sure to snag Santa, so she can get her paws on his sack, and on all of the goodies therein. I do hope that no one spent too much time composing him a letter with wishes, for thanks to that bear, you will not be getting a thing. And for goodness sakes, don't leave any cookies unattended tomorrow night! It will attract her to your home for sure!

Sue the Bus Company! Sue the Newspapers!

I must get an attorney right away is all that I can say, for I am sure that I have an excellent case against the bus company and the newspaper for endangering us all. I'm sure you will be as horrified as I was to learn that a new bus route has opened, offering round trips to Washington for twenty dollars. As you might know from some of my posts this spring, Washington is the home of the National Archives, a place just packed with alarming amounts of genealogical materials. The human has been doing a money count, ever since she saw the article on this bus route, and she is sure that she has the twenty dollars to cover her fare to gather alarming amounts of research materials! And even worse, this bus offers internet access for the entire trip! She will be able to research the tree, and find even more things that she needs before she even gets there! We are all doomed! Doomed, I tell you! Doomed!

Relative Visit

One of the human's relations dropped in today, supposedly to collect Christmas presents. Unfortunately, the human in question happens to know a bit about the family tree, and my human started to question her. Not a good sign. Not a good sign at all. And this human is supposed to return in a few days, too, which will only give my human more time to think up more genealogy questions. Does anyone know the best way to sabotage a doorbell?

Animal Adoptions

I've noticed, when I've checked what the human's doing on Facebook, that a lot of different animals have ads popping up, requesting adoption for the holidays, including an entire herd of polar bears. How worried do you suppose I should be about the human constantly seeing such advertisements while tending her little farms and zoos? I don't want to imagine what could happen if another polar bear moved in here!

More Evil from the Weatherman

I think that I need to report the weatherman to someone, I really do. Once more, he is calling for snow, and naturally the polar bears are in an uproar. The World Wildlife Foundation is likely who this horrible polar bear cruelty should be reported too, right? Or would the local sheep association be better? Thanks to the horrible weatherman, record numbers of sheep are going to lose their wool soon. I can only hope that those poor sheep got their requests for sweaters in to Santa in time.

Santa

It's just a few more days until Santa will be trotting around, although why he still tries making deliveries in this neighborhood with Betsy on the loose, I will never know. I can only hope that no one in the immediate area is hanging stockings with care, because they are sure to go unfilled. Betsy is currently checking out the chimney, and plotting to install some sort of trap.

Continuing Weatherman Issues

The weatherman continues to cause problems. Now he's calling for ice tomorrow evening, and I don't think he means the ice that goes in the human's soft drinks either. Honestly, ice is just snow that needs a bit of fluffing, so of course the polar bears are upset once more. I will probably be forced to go without sleep tonight due to the sound of them running about, gathering blankets and other things they have labeled necessary warmth supplies. I swear, if the weatherman keeps this up, I will tell the rabbits that he is donating the hill on which his little weather studio is located, for additional gardening space come summer. Being trapped by squash and watermelon for a few months will serve him right!

Snow

When I get my paws on the weatherman, he is going to be so sorry for all of the trouble he has caused. We now have several inches of snow on the ground, and needless to say, I have frantic polar bears, demanding blankets, quilts, heaters and mittens to insure their warmth. And the weatherman is lurking, up in his little studio a block away, watching all of this with great glee. I'm sure I saw flashes of light from his binoculars a bit ago. Really, wasn't it bad enough when he observed the rabbits this summer to forecast rain? He ought to be fired! Not to mention tarred, feathered, and ran out of town on a rail. If the polar bears see another flake of snow, I shudder to imagine what will happen. This is all the weatherman's fault!

Back and Polar Bear Troubles

I'm back. Sorry for the delay in posting, but I've been dealing with major polar bear issues here. We've had the dreaded s-word, snow, lately, and it's got them in a tizzy. They're holed up in the human's room, in their little den, and whenever someone dares to twitch the doorknob, they start shouting about not letting any heat out. And, unfortunately, the human's room is the current location of the computer. So annoying. It took until know for me to sneak in so I could post this. Unfortunately, more snow is in the forecast for tomorrow. Goodness knows what I will have on my paws should that horrible prediction come true!

Sheep and Nudity

Seeing as a bunch of sheep are due to become nudists soon, I suppose this is as good a time as any to bring up this topic. Has anyone ever taken a really close look at sheep without their wool? Really, that look worse naked than I ever imagined possible. And, as I understand it, the humans in charge of them, periodically collect this wool too, if they can get it before the polar bears do, to use for human purposes. I can only hope that they provide sweaters and coats for the sheep after this sheering, if for no other reason than to spare other creatures the horror that is the naked sheep!

The Weatherman

Does anyone know how to arrange for an arrest warrant to be sworn out against our local weatherman? I want charges brought against him right away, and I want something done about that horrible fellow Jack Frost too. It snowed here today, and the polar bears have been running around, panicking and demanding emergency quilt construction take place immediately. I feel for any sheep who happen to live in this area. They are sure to be naked soon. My only suggestion to them is to get their letters in to Santa right away, and hope he will drop off sweaters early, for their wool is going to be gone soon.

Human and Court

I ought to tell our neighbors, when nuts from that tree rain down on their house, and break all of their windows, that they should hold the local courts totally to blame. The human trotted up there, and of course the first thing she asked was the best place to look for records on the misdeeds of her relations. And the had the nerve to TELL her so she could trot right over and round everything up. She came home with a nice stack of papers, and now has plans to hunt down more records as soon as possible, either by visiting a courthouse in another location, or by ordering microfilm! Is there no end in sight to encouragement of that awful tree's growth?

Friday's Scheduled Horror

The human's going to be dropping into a courthouse tomorrow, I am afraid. She's supposed to be there for other reasons, but I just know that she's going to use the visit for genealogical purposes as well, to hopefully find out about some more misdeeds of her ancestors! Do you think if I called the courthouse and warned them bright and early, they could ban her?

Polar Bear Hogging

The polar bears' takeover of the desk, and their hogging of the heater continues unabated. The second it feels the least bit nippy, they flip the heater on, and lock the door so that trespassers can't sneak in an soak up some of their warmth. For purposes of heater usage, I have been declared a trespasser. Those bears ought to be ashamed, and the human ought to be ashamed for catering to them. And even worse, the desk and the polar bears' new den is right next to a large supply of fabric, just perfect for quilt purposes. I don't want to think of the disaster that might result from that!

Polar Bears and Desk Theft

Now the polar bears are getting in on the act. They have established a little, quilted den in the gap between the desk chair area and the rear of the desk, that used to be my perfect hiding spot. And they've convinced the human, too, to move one of the little portable heaters into her room, and it's pointed right at their new den, so it's all comfy in there. Really, the nerve of those bears, and here I am, with only one heater for the rest of the house, while they hog an entire one just for a tiny little den! And they have their door shut so I can't sneak in, too!

Estate Sale

Horrible news. The human has just learned that one of her cousins is having an estate sale over the weekend, and now she is dying to go, sure that she will be able to find family info and even worse, to connect with other relatives on this limb of that awful tree. What can I do to prevent this? somehow, I don't think I can manage eating the car keys!

Our Neighbor

Moving that desk into the human's room, and giving the bunnies another place to lounge was definitely a bed idea. They've put the idea into her head now that she should help them with their gardening plans, so she actually approached our poor neighbor today, while she was shoveling rock for a driveway, and mentioned needing shoveling assistance for a garden at some point. This poor human! She thinks the garden belongs to my human, so of course she agreed! We are doomed! the entire neighborhood is doomed! Our neighbor is energetic to say the least, and I'm sure would be able to do a ton of digging. The rabbits will probably be able to triple their garden plans if she assists! How can I warn her that helping with this is helping with the loss of her home come spring?
