I'm going to ignore all the above conversation.I have migraine so I can't read the buddy read book, so thought i'd listen to another in death (they the only audibooks I have) but the next book is linked to Remember me by Nora Roberts and I don't have this on audio :-(. Has anybody read this or read a Nora Roberts book? is it a different style to her on death books?
I seem to remember having read it ages ago, and it was more like a Nora Roberts than a J.D. Robb read.
:-( I hope its good, i've never read any of her books.
Can you say no to these eyes?[image error]

ROFLMAO absolutely love the crying......That my friend is a nasty little creature called an O'Possum. They roam and ramble at night, digging in the garbage, they hang from trees by their tales that are hairless and look like pink pieces of hardened worn out rubber. They have squinty itty bitty evil looking eyes and they have nasty pointed sharp teeth and if you mess with them or their babies they will bite you and hiss at you and most likely give you RABIES. Down deep in the South where I come from you get 500 pts for running over them as FORD (found on road dead)/roadkill. I HATE THEM LOLOLOLOL

I can't scroll up because of your post , so I guess we are even !How did you find that?
OMG, take that image off, it's FREAKING ME OUTTTTTTTTT!!!!
I forgot to mention that possums often play like they are dead when they are really still living. They do this when they are confronted with a situation they don't want to deal with.That's where the phrase "Playn' Possum" comes from.
Haha I know its scaring me a bit, I didn't realise it moved till I posted it. Shosho I was trying to find someone crying lol.Jenny that other rodent thing you posted on pinterest before still haunts me. I'm not looking forward to sleeping tonight, I know all these rodents will be in my dream, I already freak out about mice every night :-(.
Robin i'll just pretend I didn't see your comment I def don't want to be thinking about that.

LOL Dawn......my sentiments exactly.

oh good sometimes that's what I'm in te mood for and only find fluffy books.
The crying picture is scarier than the possum picture!!! LOL!! What/who is that???
LOL Megan I don't have a clue.Jenny I wish for dislike buttons all the time, I think you and Shosho would get the most hits.
Aaa Elishia I got you a hunk who's reading a book !
Hmm I suppose you'd get a like for him then.
~Megan~ wrote: "The crying picture is scarier than the possum picture!!! LOL!! What/who is that???"I like the crying picture LMAO That one would get a "LIKE" from me......But the possum on the other hand would get a BIG DISLIKE LOL
ShoSho I definitely "LIKE" the hottie reading a book. Wonder if he is reading erotica ☺

He can look at me any day of the week, he has wonderful eyes.
HEY LOLOLOLOLOLOL for those of you reading Pleasure Unbound I answered my first set of questions and made comments about Tay calling Eidolon "Dr. Hottie" and this is who I immediately thought of 
And then Tay called him Dr Evil and I thought of
Which reminds me of Elishia's crying picture LOLOLOLOL Lots of similarities between cry baby and Dr. Evil LMAO
If the hottie reading the book turned into a possum, I could like them a WHOLE LOT ;)
I can't seem to get into any books at the moment :-( What's wrong with me??? I keep picking them up and putting them down, disinterested and so I try another, but i get the same results !!! And it's starting to freak me out cos I have signed up for so many challenges that require weekly reading. If only I could out-source my reading like the call-centres with their customer service, lol!

Good Gravy Beans! There are a ton of posts in this thread this morning. And I just wanted to ignore the possum conversation. Ha! My two cents worth:
• I didn't even know they could take a half-way cute pic like ShoSho posted. The miracle of photography.
• Everything ♥Robin♥ said about them is true.
• Not so cute in this picture.
[image error]
I don't mind possums, we see them round here all the time. But no, they're not very cute, are they. To me they just look like giant rats...
That's what they are, really. Only, much meaner. The only good thing I can say about them is that they are pretty protective of their young. Make that very, since they will attack you, if you mess with them.
Ew. We had one on the porch once, the dog went after it and it just played dead. Even when the guy got a shovel to push it off the porch it still wouldn't move. Finally we just left it alone and it got up and left after a half hour or so.I really don't mind rats either. Not that I want them swarming my house or anything, but when I see em out in the barn, they don't bother me. Even the big ones. I guess if they came at me, I'd be scared, but just to see them, no. Back in school, my best friend had a pet rat, one of those albino ones. His name was Fred and he was actually kinda cute, he'd climb on us, sit on your shoulder. Didn't mind that one...
The look I get from that picture is, "I want to eat your face, and I will if you move"
Ewww, rats are no friend of mine. We had one in our laundry room a few winters ago. I saw it running on the cabinet. I made my son-in-law go out and try to kill/trap and kill it. He got rid of it. But since then, I won't wash clothes at night anymore for fear of them being in there with me.
I had a rat invade my house about two years ago. It took
forever
to get rid of it! Nasty, fat, shit-dropping little bugger who would gnaw on drapes and carpet - and one of my slippers once (tore it to bits) - and was NOT a bit afraid of me. It was a smart little son-of-a-bitch, too. Finally got it with The Rat Zapper.
When I did the remodel, we discovered a hole in the foundation that they suspect is where it got in.
Lol! Nice. We had a wee little mouse come across the entryway one day, and I went to go get a cup to scoop it up in and put it outside, and when I came back, my guy had squooshed the poor thing with a baseball bat. I was so mad at him for killing it. But that's nothing, we get snakes in here all the time. Found a 3ft long shed skin in the basement last summer, and we get little rat snakes and garter snakes coming in under the front door all the time. Just scoop 'em up and toss em back out. They don't get destructive though, if something was chewing my stuff, I'd get mad, lol :)

LOL LK that isn't a not so cute pic of a possum.
Can you imagine being awakened in the middle of night and hearing something in your bedroom, reach over to turn the bedside lamp on only to find about 8 of them running around your bedroom...one sitting on the nightstand on the radio/alarm clock? A mom and her babies. This happened to a friend of mine and his wife. I would have went into a panic attack.
And you are right they are really mean. My ex trapped one in a have-a-heart trap so he could get it away from the house and back out to the woods. It keep managing to get itself in the trash can and tearing up the trash making a huge mess. After he got it in the trap, that thing bared it's teeth and hissed at us and then when we got to the woods it wouldn't get out of the trap LOL

ACCCCCCCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKK.....I definitely don't do snakes at ALL. If one was to get IN my house, we would probably be moving right then and there. This last year is the first time I have seen any close to the house and I told the Mister to go around and check everything to make sure they can't get in. This year we are going to get some of that snake-away powder/dust and put it around the house and out in the garden. There are mixed reviews about whether it really works or not but it will give me peace of mind LOL. I always seem to be the one to find them out in the yard/garden and when I do my son and the mister better come running and kill it...and they do LOL.
@LK UMMMMMMM I would be upset about a rat chewing up my stuff. I don't like them either....they are nasty little germ/disease infested critters too. They will bite you too if they get the chance, especially the BIG ONES. Thank goodness one of my dogs is a "mouser" lol just like a cat. She cracks me up catching mice...she gets lots of praise,treats and special attention when she catches/kills them ☺

Gisela, it isn't fluffy at all, nor a "wallpaper western." Pretty gritty. But, it has some good humor in it.
