Kreisleriana - 17 May 2006 18:47 GMT Here I am tapping away at the keyboard, and Stinky gets in my face. Hey, Stink, was your father a glazier? Get outta my way! Sniff, sniff, sniff, Stinky sniffs my face with great concern. The sniffing concentrates around my mouth, sniffy sniffy sniffy. What is it that's interested him so much? Stinky then makes the short leap to the table behind me, and sticks his head in the package of . . . Fig Newtons!!! He carefully takes out one in his mouth, and saunters off with his prey.

Sweet but... gross. ;o) Yeah, but not nearly as gross as when a dog licks your mouth! Although I have a friend whose cat loves to lick her on the teeth. Now that's gross!

LOL, a friend of mine had a cat (Igor was actually my Frank's nephew - all in the family) who would jump up in her lap whenever she was eating something, pry open her mouth with his paws, and look around to see if there was anything he liked. If he did, he would just take it. Out of her mouth. And she let him do it every time.

Stinky used to do that after I brushed my teeth, or gargled. He would pry open my mouth in the former case, to see what the minty smell was, and in the latter case, to try to see what was making that noise. ;)

jXwXeXrXmXoXnXt@sonic.net - 19 May 2006 00:52 GMT > Was he singing and doing the Fig Newton dance? "Oooey gooey rich > and chewy inside... tender cakey golden flakey outside!" Oh wow - so *that's* where that came from!! Years ago (late 80s), I knew someone whose last name was Oey (pronounced "oooey" just like above). One time she told me that when she was a kid in school, the other kids used to tease her by chanting "oey gooey rich and chewy" at her. I didn't know that commercial at the time she told me about this, so I just thought the kids made that up. It seemed so weird to me - "rich and chewy??" Huh? LOL. Now it makes sense. Still not very nice to do to her, but at least I get it now. :)

> No, not very nice, but you should have tried growing up with Jack & Jill > jokes ;) I can imagine! But I had my own problems - my last name, Wermont, is pronounced just like it looks. It is not a German name, the W is pronounced like a W, and the accent is on the first syllable, not the second. (Many people think my name is pronounced like the state of Vermont. I wish!)
So, the first syllable, "Werm" - well, you can imagine. They called me The Worm, or Wermie. Sweet, eh? I hate kids!!
(Not really, but boy, they sure can be cruel.)

I'm really glad I got through school before the cooking spray came out. Students seem to think that calling me Mrs. Shrek will hurt my feelings. Hah! After what the little darlings in grade school called me Shrek is totally minor.
