message 1151: by Val (last edited Aug 20, 2013 01:47PM) (new)

Val (valz) | 1542 comments Carmen, "stressed" out from peeing her pants, decided that she was tired of the "stagnant" smell emanating from Larry the Lizard. She tied a "string" around his spiky neck and took him for a little walk. Meanwhile, Val and April awoke from sleeping off the whole incident and feeling as "strong" and insane as usual, "strained" their brains to remember where Carmen and Larry were. Finally, they decided it wasn't worth worry as they could see Larry's tracks in the path.

T (twoo) The motley crew came upon a "driver", who appeared to be a "certified" looney bin resident, sitting by an "abandoned" "electric" car, attempting to make "pancakes" on the sun-warmed engine.

aPriL does feral sometimes  (cheshirescratch) | 1296 comments The driver holding out a pinky, slapped down a postcard with panache. "I'll kill that witch! How dare she! Runs off with my puerile gardener, then sends me a postcard from her honeymoon! I gave her everything - breast implants, hair plugs, colon cleanses - and this is how she pays me back!" He moaned all poignant. April and Val tried to be concerned about his troubles. "Sounds internally difficult," mused April.

T (twoo) With great "amusement", Val watched April as she deftly "looped" the driver onto the mental "carousel" of distraction by wiles (April's, not Val's), setting him off on a "circular" trip, "rotating" around does-she-or-doesn't-she-wear-polka-dotted-underwear-under-those-white-leggings (April,not Val).....

Val (valz) | 1542 comments Val, still snickering at April's "internally difficult" comment, failed to notice Carmen sitting in the drivers seat of the car and pushing the start button with her "finger". The motor turned on and the women jumped in and drove off, pancakes flying. "Where's Larry?" Val asked. Carmen mumbled something about "feral" and "flatulent". April suggested they visit a friend with a knack for "forensics' and a reputation for "fraudulent" activity! "Just our kind of girl!". So off to T's house they went.

T (twoo) T, ever the witchy one, was working on a confiscated "shark" fin, while requesting a "toenail" from the missing Larry, as well as a "feather" from Val's chapeau du jour, and a square of Carmen's precious "turquoise" "linoleum", not to mention a hair of April's newt for good measure.

message 1161: by Carmen (new)

Carmen | 2477 comments Typing on no sleep today, I'm misspelling words left and right, about to give myself a "coronary"! T, in her great wisdom, thankfully has been finding said errors and saving my butt from utter humiliation. Thank God we were pulled over on the side of the road cause Larry needed a potty break! Anyhoo......

Jan, Val and April on the other hand, are putting their heads together, trying to think of a way they can "catapult" a little "calf" over the White "Castle" restaurant that we passed awhile back. I asked Val where the heck they were gonna get a cow to chuck over the roof and she said, "Oh, I got a friend that works with the "coroner" and he says he can get one for me anytime!"
Im thinking "HHHMMM....K. You've got some mighty strange friends there Val!" :O

Cam | 2652 comments While the "mailmen" were tying their "shoe strings", they saw April and Val walking pet "alligators" on the side of the road. Time to let the honey "bees" free April stated as she opened up her "purse".

T (twoo) Meanwhile, as the bees tried to "fly" "away" towards their honey "home", Larry the Lizard was sauntering through the nearby "cemetery" in search of a nice quiet nap.

Val (valz) | 1542 comments "What idiots!" Val laughed. "The mailmen thought our "skinny" "salamanders" were alligators. April grinned, imagining all the fun that Larry was going to have with these girls (the salamanders). "April, have you ever had a cheese and "sorrel" "sandwich"? Val asked, realizing she was hungry. They had reached the top of the trail and below them lay the "slalom" ski trail. "Last winter Larry won the reptile record here" Val commented.

message 1165: by T (new)

T (twoo) Larry Lizard thought what 'nonsense' these crazy women prattle, how "funny" that the loony bin "clinic" wanted to "reproduce" the stories of these women on to "film" for all the world to see and hear and let them live on in hysterical history.

message 1166: by Val (new)

Val (valz) | 1542 comments Once Larry spotted the two salamanders he decided he'd put up with the crazy women for a bit. Pretending he was a "surgeon" he introduced himself. "Surgeon! you look more like a "stinkbug" ", laughed one of the salamanders. "I don't know, he kind of has a "sturgeon" quality to him" murmured the other. Meanwhile, T, Cam, and Carmen walked up the hill. T had been telling them about the latest "scandal" involving counterfeit "stickers" of Justin Beiber and wanted to get in on the action.

Cam | 2652 comments It was stated in the paper that Justin felt like committing "suicide" cause people were selling counterfeit stickers on E-bay. He thought about killing himself by eating a moldy "potato". T, Cam and Carmen continued to "hike" up the hill. They saw a "Danger" sign, and stopped, but T being such an "intrepid" person as she was, ignored the sign and kept right on walking.

Val (valz) | 1542 comments Val said " the sticker counterfeiter was arrested so Beiber's back, being a boy without a band, not that I "care". I'm more of a Stones type and speaking of stones some of those "fallen" rocks are sharp. Cam peered over the "cliff" and agreed. " Big too", she said, "some must be at least 7 'feet' across. You'd be beyond 'help' if you fell down there.

aPriL does feral sometimes  (cheshirescratch) | 1296 comments T, never one to squander an opportunity to look underneath peculiar pebbles, picked up a yellow rock on the cliff. "Oh, my lord!" She squeaked in a high pitch, seeing the weird creepy bug stuck to the underside of the rock. A particular scary sounding roar came from behind. Looking around, the trio saw a charging bear coming straight for them. They peered over the cliff in front of them.

message 1172: by Val (new)

Val (valz) | 1542 comments "Okay girls! It's time for a human chain!" barked April. Everyone stared at her with' bulbous' eyes but before the bear could 'bash' them, April climbed over the cliff and hung on to the rough edge of a rock. Val climbed onto April and managed to grasp her feet. Cam climbed over the two of them, careful not to 'bump' their cute little heads. Carmen came next, making the chain 4 women long. "What we need is a little 'beefcake' to help," T cried on her way down. "Where's that damned lizard when we need him!". "Now, now. No need to be 'brusque" Larry chastised as he scrambled over the 5 women and reached a flat area.

Cam | 2652 comments Along came an old man holding a "whiskey" bottle in his hand. For some "crazy" reason, he carried a "ladder" in his other hand, and all the folks ran back up the ladder to safety. He invited everyone over for "turkey" dinner which he roasted in a campfire while Smokey the "bear" watched.

aPriL does feral sometimes  (cheshirescratch) | 1296 comments The bear got drunk as a skunk and began to dance. April giggled. "Is that you, Larry? You look a like you need a partner." she said as she went to the bear. Oh, lovely" trilled Cam. "Someone stop her!" As the old man stumbled up to his feet, T, who had had a few herself, said, "This should be fun!" April's cat was eating turkey off of their plates while everyone watched April and the bear, thought, "Yum!" Val thought that maybe the next few minutes was a good time to shun this party and climb a tree for awhile.

message 1175: by Val (last edited Sep 06, 2013 05:48PM) (new)

Val (valz) | 1542 comments While in the tree, Val noticed a hunter approaching with a rifle. Although she wasn't a fan of the bear, she didn't want him dead either so she jumped down and made it clear to the beast that he was interfering with their 'gynarchy' and that she could be a real 'corsair' when she wanted and also a hunter was coming with a rifle. The bear who didn't really understand english noticed skunk tracks on the ground and decided he was in the mood for a stinky meal. April, drunk as the soon to be bear's meal, started to take off her 'habilments'. T worried that the bear ' auspicated ' danger and staggered and 'skedaddled' down the hill toward the approaching hunter.

T (twoo) < i'm still learning april's words, which i thought might have been a product of said tipsyiness, except that they appear to be in the dictionary and i'm just ignorant.....

but i digress. okay, i can see a 2 year old knowing 4 out of the 5, but do i want to know why a 2 year old would know "radiator springs"? >


message 1177: by Carmen (new)

Carmen | 2477 comments Whoa! I just looked at Aprils' list and I know one word out of all if them! Do you think she's using the dictionary to make us look kinda dumb? I mean, I can do that all by myself! HAHA! Props to Val for making a story out of those words. She's a smarty pants, that one!

Oh yeah, a 2 yr. old would know Radiator Springs cause that's the town on Route 66 that Lightning McQueen gets stuck in in the movie Cars. :D


message 1178: by Val (new)

Val (valz) | 1542 comments Yes, I looked April's words up in the dictionary and yes, Carmen knows, Radiator Springs is from the Cars movies. I didn't capitalize it because I was just plain lazy.


aPriL does feral sometimes  (cheshirescratch) | 1296 comments April snarled, "I wish I could say I make up monster words which captivate the Earth in instant admiration so much the Dictionary people instantly feel they better get on the train or they'll miss the boat and put them in the dictionary instantaneously; however, this wonderful iPad has available several word strengthening apps which every day pop a word up as a notification." The gang stared at her in disbelief. Carmen said, "Perhaps she needs a vacation in Radiator Springs. It's where drunks go to dry out." The hunter walked up and asked, "Anybody see a penguin?" He cocked his gun. The bear attracted by the commotion, sauntered up to the crowd.

T (twoo) April uses so many words that poor T's simple head is spinning, but then again, it might have been the sight of the bear garbed in "plaid" "spandex" on the bottom half and a "chambray" work shirt on the left arm and a "gingham" nightgown on the right, with a "toile" night cap perched precariously on the top of Big Bear's enormous head.

S.M. | 32005 comments The bear, stylish as he was, distracted the hunter with a "marshmallow" "yogurt" and a "snickerdoodle" placed on a very large "band aid". The bear thought that if he had to fight the hunter one of them was going to need the band aid. April took out her Ipod and played some "doowop" to help with the distraction.

message 1182: by T (new)

T (twoo) Throwing "caution" to the winds, Val rolled up her sleeves to try and snag a snickerdoodle, but the ever vigilant T took a quick "scan" of the surroundings and began to "sharpen" her favorite knife in as it would be needed. "Drat, here comes than hunter again..."

Carmen | 2477 comments Mr. "Peabody" (he's that smart dude from those Bullwinkle cartoons) and I had just come up with a "potent" " potion" to stop the thieving Val in her tracks. We'd perfected a "portable" version of our concoction, filled with all the "Protozoa" needed to make her really sick of Snickerdoodles, when I tripped over my shoelaces and sent the mixture flying out the open window! :O

message 1185: by Val (new)

Val (valz) | 1542 comments Val, oblivious to what was 'happening' with Peabody and Carmen, decided that there would be no 'righteous' battle between beast and hunter and slyly told the bear that 'winter' was almost here and he needed to be looking for a hip hibernation hotel. She also told the hunter that he reminded her of 'Orion' and a bunch of other bull @##$@ so he would get a swollen head and forget about bear killing. All the friends decided they'd had enough of the great outdoors and headed for an 'underneath' pub nearby.

aPriL does feral sometimes  (cheshirescratch) | 1296 comments Cam, Carmen, Meow, Sheila, T and Val were preoccupied with exercising their arms lifting glasses of beer when they were distracted by gentlemen who walked into the pub wearing Seahawks uniforms and goofy expressions. Meow lost her bored look. "I'm getting forgetful of my manners. We must make welcome these strangers," she purred. It so happened, there were six Seahawks. Meow hooked an arm on one and walked him over to the girls. The others followed. "I have a weakness for caramel-colored balls." she whispered.

T (twoo) Sheila held up her 'crystal' stein in a welcoming toasting gesture, Meow attempted to lookd on with 'limpid' eyes, Cam downed her 'mineral' water in a rush, Carmen attempted to become 'transparent', and Val was the only 'lucid' one in the whole danged bunch. T, of course, was giggling on the floor at the whole charade.

Val (valz) | 1542 comments "Oh Meow, you silly sly girl you," Val said trying not to look at the 'buttocks' of the players. "I see you've met 'Burl Ives's' great nephew, Stan Footballman." Carmen, embarrassed at the brassness of Meow and Val, wished she could just transport herself to 'Borneo'. T suddenly had an urge to dance around the room like a 'butterfly' and began doing so. Sheila, quite thrilled with the entire affair, shouted 'bingo!' and pumped her arm in the air.

T (twoo) While Meow pumped "more" "hairspray" on her beehive, the dude on the last "barstool" at the left end of the bar figured "robbery" of our voluptuous brainy beauties would probably be as much fun as watching a "termite" chew some wood and ordered up another beer instead.

Scott | 851 comments The man on the last barstool stood and moseyed up next to Meow...inhaling her Aqua Net cloud, he tried to 'stifle' his cough and snarf the last of his draft. placing the pint glass on the bar, he said, "The name's Slim...but people call me Snark. I see you hit a little snafu...since your glass is almost empty and your friends seem occupado. I'd be honored if I could buy your next drink, my heavily coiffed feline beauty, just name your poison." Meow gave the tall stranger a sidelong glance while her manicured finger traced the edge of her glass like a rotary phone. "I'm drinking Snapple and Southern Comfort with a splash of bitters and tabasco", she purred.

Val (valz) | 1542 comments Snapple and Southern Comfort with a splash of bitters and tabasco is just terrifying!


Slim gladly ordered a "Burmashave" Blitz for Meow whose face was turning "neon" from imbibing. T and Sheila staggered over and with no 'persuasion' at all accepted a drink from Snark. Val stared at him suspiciously. This was after all a bar underneath and you never knew who folk really were. There was that one time in this exact smoke ridden 'remote' hole that the "Armadillo" had appeared.

aPriL does feral sometimes  (cheshirescratch) | 1296 comments "Oooooooh!" sighed Meow. "I can be such a tease, but I honestly think this is the real thing! Snark, darling, before I change my mind, do you live near by?" She leaned intimately forward. Unfortunately, the Blitz was rather potent and could be a terror for any sense of equilibrium. Meow found herself saying hello to the floor. Blood trickled from a nostril, but she smiled up brilliantly. The corn stalks spread over the floorboards appeared to have cushioned her fall from grace. Val, T, and Sheila helped her, a bit unsteadily, back up. Cam said, "Well, this is photographic." The tallest Seahawks fellow, who the girls later would agree had the best butt, (except Meow, who would not remember anything since the bear) moved belligerently towards Snark. "They winked at me first!" Val winked again. Carmen quickly grabbed some of the glasses, saying, "I think it's time to leave."

Cam | 2652 comments "Pandemonium" may start "breaking out inside my head" as I try to make sense of the above story... Life is just one big "paradox"...

The Queen walked down the street with a "primly" expression on her face as everyone passing by bowed to her. She was very proud of her grand-children who drew her pictures of boxes using the "parallax" method. The front of her refrigerator was covered with her grand-children's drawings.

Hopefully they will not develop pathological symptoms as they try to figure out complex algebra equations.

aPriL does feral sometimes  (cheshirescratch) | 1296 comments Tiddles the Queen often hunted animals to eat when there was no road kill. She was closing in on a "Turkey" she saw which was inexplicably tied to a post outside a Fred Meyers store, knife in hand. Suddenly a scream stopped her. "You "sick" person! That's Milton! He is to be Grand Marshall at the parade! You don't "kill" a "holiday" pet, especially Milton! It's a "Thanksgiving" celebration! We need him on the float!"
