The Holidays Are Almost Over

With Christmas finally down, there is one more holiday of the year left, New Years. I'm not too terribly excited about New Years, though. I'm not one to get too terribly excited over it. I've never been to a party. I'm not even sure I'll be staying up until midnight. Not on purpose anyway. I am very ho-hum about the holidays. Not sure why. It's only just been in recent years that I've become that way. Maybe it's because I live in the South and winter isn't very cold any more. The atmosphere isn't right. Maybe that's why. I'm not even going to pretend to know. Philosophizing isn't my strong suit. At all.

So I leave you with a list of the most annoying characters from a kiddy television show starting with number 10 and counting down to the most annoying.

The Top 10 Most Annoying Characters on a Kiddy Television Show:

10. Cody Martin- The Suite Life of Zach and Cody

Cody is...the smart and sensitive twin of Zack Martin

He has shown a passion for baking, cleaning, and cooking, as well as mime and dance.

Need I say more?





9. Jetta- Clifford the Big Red Dog

Jetta is your typical spoiled rich kid, and she's got a huge sense of entitlement and pride. She's usually trying to hog the spotlight or twist things to get her own way, which creates the necessary conflict in the cartoon.

Mac's human. Wealthy, self-centered, friend of Emily Elizabeth who is often oblivious to others' feelings. Often claims her accomplishments are bigger or better than others'. Her mother owns one of the island stores and seems somewhat oblivious to Jetta's behavior.

8. Muffy Crosswire- Arthur

She is the wealthiest girl in school, and is the stereotypical rich/spoiled girl. She tends to be extremely self-centered and, her behavior occasionally leads her into trouble with her friends. She also tries to impress her friends with her Dad's wealth, who is the wealthiest businessman in Elwood City, and because of this she is often labeled as a show-off by her friends.


7. Henry- Angelina Ballerina

Henry's voice kills me. Listening to him is like listening to a violin screeching over and over. He sounds like he is always whining. And as we all know, whining is tres annoying!









6. The Kids on Barney- Barney and Friends and Barney and The Backyard Gang

They can't act. They can barely sing. And their dancing really leaves a lot to be desired. My annoyance with this crew starts with the originals like Michael, Luci, Adam, Tina, Derek, Amy, and and work there way all the way down to whoever is in the cast today. No improvement has been made over the years. WTF, PBS? You would think that even PBS could afford better talent for this show by now. They can afford to add another dinosaur to the cast, but can't find any real talent. Sad, really.

Info on that new dino, Riff, just because I thought you'd enjoy knowing it.

(referred as Cousin Riff by Baby Bop) is an orange six year old hadrosaur, who is Baby Bop and BJ's cousin. He has appeared since season 10 (Barney and Friends). He wears green sneakers. His theme is "I Hear Music Everywhere." Riff loves music and it's in almost everything he does.

5. Miley Stewart- Hannah Montana

Fake accent, stupid catchphrase, split personality, Miley Stewart has it all. Does she REALLY think that accent is cute? Does she REALLY expect us to believe that people actually say, "Sweet niblets"? Does she not think that maybe she should see a shrink about that double personality thing? Hannah Montana is just so far-fetched. I'd say this show is funny, but in reality it's just sad. Nice try, Disney, now move on. Two seasons is enough. Stop the madness while you still can!

Miley, the series' protagonist, leads a double life as an ordinary teenager by day and a successful pop singer named "Hannah Montana" by night. On the show, none of the characters know of her alter ego except for her close friends and family members


4. Zak - DragonTales

Zak(he's the green one) is neat and orderly, a worrier and a pessimist.











3. Caillou- Caillou


A 4-year-old boy who throughout the series is fascinated by the world around him and guided through it by friends and family.

He's just really bratty to me. That's all. And he never ages! I prefer Rosie. Now, that's a kid!






2. Elmo- Sesame Street

I HATE ELMO! He's freaking creepy. He used to kinda be cute, but now he's annoying as hell. There is only one character more annoying that him! He has an ego the size of Texas, and this is proven by the fact that he refers to himself in the third person. It's annoying when adults do it, but it's super annoying when children do it. What child, besides Elmo does this? What child is egomanical enough to? ELMO! Fucking Christ! Get over it already! Elmo's fucking evil. End of story. He's even more Evil than Burt. My advice to Elmo? Take a freaking Prozac and STFU! Enough already.

1. Spongebob Squarepants- Spongebob Squarepants

SpongeBob is an optimistic and energetic character who is also very naive. His hobbies include jelly-fishing and blowing bubbles with Patrick. He is unaware how Squidward is annoyed by him.

Why I hate Spongebob:
His voice, his laugh, his optimism, his laugh, his stupidity, his laugh, his innocence, his laugh, his humor, his laugh, his hobbies. Oh and his laugh. Most annoying laugh in history of cartoons! Again, take some Prozac and STFU already! Enough!

And now that we're all thoroughly annoyed, that concludes our list. Add comments of your own if you wish. I am going to bed. The holidays and this blog itself has worn me out.

This is All Nik's Fault

I'm back to thinking about getting inked. I'd get the inside of each wrist done. I want a symbol for understanding on one and a symbol for guidance on the other. I just don't know which ones. I'm thinking of using a symbol that is of Dutch origin. I definitely don't want Kanji. Maybe I'll put them on my ankles. Although, wrist seems more "handy." Yeah. I don't know either. Maybe I'll do one in Norwegian and the other in Dutch. Let me see what I can come up with...

Fingerless

So, uh the making of handprint cookies went well, but the getting of the cookies off of the baking sheet went crapily. The fingers pretty much all broke off. so now I have random finger cookies. Although, one hand did end up being in \m/ rock on position which was pretty badass.

What's That Smell?

It's me. I smell like shrimp. I just peeled and de-veined an entire pound and now I smell like shrimp. My grandma's making shrimp gumbo. A small price to pay for Gumboy goodness. Our neighbor caught the shrimp in June. Six months is still fresh, right?

I am so ready for Thursday. I don't think I can contain my excitement over Camy's dollhouse or Jayde's kitchen much longer. I'm going to have a blast putting them together. The magic and wonder of Santa shall grow, even though I am not a fan of telling them it was Santa. I had started the tradition of waiting until Twelfth night and saying it was the Three Wisemen, but because I don't homeschool, I really can't expect them to not know about Santa. So, I was defeated by the power of conforming. But I still didn't get Santa pictures done. Karen did with Camy even though I have told her that we don't want to enforce the Santa thing any more than we have to. At least she didn't make Jayde do pictures. And it's not like I am the only one who doesn't agree with the Santification of Christmas, Kyle agreed with me. So, she isn't just going against my wishes, she's going against his wishes too! BITCH! And people wonder why I don't like her. Yeah, it's a small thing, but seriously, it's one of the only things I've asked of her. Dhe could have at least done it. Although, it's pretty much not surprising. I also said no Webkinz and now we have 25. She started them. Of course, I continued them. I didn't HAVE to continue them. Oh well.

Anyway, the kids had a mish mash inside picnic for lunch. I gave them Velveeta chunks, raisins, chicken nuggets, french fries, cheese taquitos, Capri Sun, RitzBits peanut butter sandwiches, apple dippers, caramel sauce, and graham crackers. I think that was it. We had a small amount of everything so it isn't like they got a whole lot. Like the french fries, for instance. They had like 20 between the three of them. They each had one taquito. Small portions, so it sounds like a lot.

I bet you're wondering about my dreams, yes? I know you are. Well...NO P! But they did include a certain of age Jonas Brother....Shut-up, he's adorable!

Anything else? I don't think. Oh. We're going to make handprint cookies tonight. I'll tell you how that goes. I've never done it before, but I thought of it the last time we made cookies.

Kevin Corbin Danny

I promised myself I wouldn't, but here are pictures for those of you who read the last entry and were like "Who?"
Kevin Jonas

Corbin Bleu
Danny Masterson



You're Going To Get Sick Of Me

I have got to be the most boring person ever.

Kyle took the kids to dinner and a movie, or movie and dinner, as it would be. I was going to go, but, uh, not something I want to feel again. Being vulnerable around him is not fun. The went to go see The Tale of Despereaux. They've already seen Bolt and Madagascar 2. Everything else they were showing was PG-13, and I so am not letting my babies see Twilight. I would have sucked it up for that.

Another P dream last night. If you're keeping score, that's six nights in a row. I had been dreaming of Danny Masterson and Corbin Bleu. And yes, Kevin Jonas. He's cute, ok, and so is Corbin, hush. And Hyde, well, he's fucking Hyde, dude. Of course he's hot. And I've been watching That 70's Show almost non-stop for a month now. Jackie + Hyde is so much better than Jackie + Kelso. Ashton= tool. Seriously. Have I confused you yet? Yeah. Not surprising. But you love me so you put up with it.

Hmmm...

I'm slightly bored today. But I get the kids for Christmas! I win!

Oh. I made cheesy rice today. I haven't in a while. I used white sticky rice from the Chinese we got the other night, whole milk, and Velveeta. Velveeta is a superior cheese tyvm.

Yeah. I'm pretty random lately. I know you had to notice. Not that I've blogged enough for you to notice. But I expect you to notice anyway. Ha.

I'm trying to bullshit enough to make this longer.

Is it working?

Didn't think so. I need to finish and print my resume'. I actually got a call from the one person I applied to. I wasn't expecting anything this quickly. I have to call them back and fax my resume' tomorrow. They called on Friday and I didn't get the message in time. That's what I get for not toting my phone everywhere. But seriously, if I had had the damn phone they would have NEVER called. I toted the damn thing around for two days. Bah Humbug!
