The Hurricane has a new nickname -- Miss Conception. Every time I tell this anecdote I start to laugh so hard that my speech becomes incomprehensible, so if you have difficulty reading my writing, it's because I'm laughing so hard.
Miss Conception was listening to the president's victory speech, following the election, obviously. President Obama said that we want out children to grow up in an America that's "not threatened by the destructive power of a warming planet."
Miss Conception thought he said, "not threatened by the destructive power of a Mormon planet."
I thought that was hilarious.
The big news from Favorite Young Man and Little Chick is that President Jimmy Carter now lives with them. No, his wife didn't kick him out.
Actually, it would be pretty funny if she finally became so angry about his comment to "Playboy" so many years ago that he lusted after women in his heart that she said, Jimmy, Get the hell outa my bed. So he had to move in with FYM and LC.
However, President Jimmy Carter is, in fact, a stray cat who now makes his home with my animal loving children.

Mr. Carter is surely living the good life in the arms of a beautiful woman.
ReplyDeleteHe's no fool, Peaches.
DeleteHow exciting to live with a president, even if it's only a one term president.
ReplyDeleteHe wasn't a really great president, but he's certainly a great ex-president; and even better now that he lives with my children.
DeleteI hope President Jimmy Carter isn't the jealous type--Little Chick it MUCH prettier!!
ReplyDeleteI think President Jimmy Carter likes showing off his Little Chick.
DeleteI think Prez Jimmy Carter looks very presidential, very cute indeed. :) Tell me what size lump of coal you want, I'll see if I can send you some myself..lol
ReplyDeleteAny size of coal will do. It's better than having nothing in my stocking when I'm all alone on Christmas because my children neglect me.
DeleteHa ha, that's hysterical!
ReplyDeleteI love Jimmy Carter! What a beautiful kitty :) Is he a Russian Blue?
I don't know what he is, other than a puddy tat. He showed up at Little Chick's sister's house and insisted on crashing their party.
DeleteWhat an odd name for a cat. I love odd names for cats, though. ;)
ReplyDeleteThey were going to name him Carter but decided to go with the full name. Favorite Young Man is a great admirer of President Carter, as am I, post-presidency.
DeleteHe is a gorgeous kitty! I'm so glad he has a wonderful home now :) And I am loving Miss Conception's little blunder; that is hilarious!!
ReplyDeleteThe things I think I see and hear are always so much funnier than reality.
DeleteI loved this! Sounds like your daughter and mine might be related! As for Jimmy and Little Chick they are indeed darling! Trying to get my reading in early before my eye's give out. aaaahhhh. Have a great day miss thing. Hope all is well in your corner of the world.
ReplyDeleteAll is well, indeed. After all, we now have a former president in the family. I hope this one doesn't take off to work for Habitat for Humanity.
DeleteDid you hear about the mother in Kenya who named her twins Obama and Romney?? Sorry to stray a bit off topic.
ReplyDeleteOoooo, that's awful.
DeleteI LOVE that little oopsie about the "Mormon planet". Too funny! What a pretty little kitty, but that lofty moniker's putting a lot of pressure on the poor little fella. We had a Persian cat once who had a more "pure" lineage than our kids. We got him for free, and he came with all kinds of pedigrees and papers, and an impressive multi-word name to match that made him sound like royalty. I didn't want to intimidate the poor little fella with such a weighty name... plus I didn't want him to get too uppity, either... so I dubbed him Smokey. (Or occasionally, Smokey Joe from Kokamo.)
ReplyDeleteThe Hurricane always makes me laugh. I don't know if FYM and LC actually call out "President Jimmy Carter" when they want the cat to come, but if they do, then it's pretty funny.
Deletegorgeous kitty. love his coat.
ReplyDeletePresident Jimmy Carter thanks you, Jaya.
DeleteWow. What could Saturday Night Live do with that "miss conception"?
ReplyDeleteA lot.
DeleteJuli, I picture Miss Conception as a regular character who always misunderstands what's being said, but in a way that's hilarious. It would be kind of like Roseann Roseannadanna complaining about "violins" on television. Gosh, I still miss Gilda Radner.
DeleteLove all your misconceptions! And LC and PC are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThank you, my oceangirl.
DeleteI love the Miss Conception story. Too bad it won't teach those people a thing, those who don't believe we are getting warmer here. I love the cat and LC.
ReplyDeleteI'm always late for the party. Love President Jimmy Carter...he looks like my cat Chopper. I miss Chopper.
