Mom's gonna be wicked busy this week at her day hunting gig, and she isn't looking forward to it. She says the rest of the week will be a Week From Hell on Steroids. She talks about what she has to do, but it just sounds like jibberish to me. Eeeeeeeeeee are pea, database engine, crystal retorts, email, user eye-dees, groups, writes, data-base conversation, gigabites, con-sultans, off the network, sit-tricks, ottocad... I dunno. I think she's losing her mind.Anyway I explained that she's gotta get off her butt and set up the raffle for Churchill. We're gonna make a Gizzy Quilt to raffle for his v-e-t expenses.
And it's gonna snow again today. Ain't life grand?
Very cute photo, Millie. :) Your mom sounds very busy. Our mom recognizes some of those words from when she worked as an IT manager. How wonderful that you are going to raffle off a quilt for Churchill! :)
ReplyDeletemommie has done alot of crystal retorts
ReplyDeleteOh, my Mom knows about databases... that what she does when she is hunting. Well that and what she calls "other duties as needed" which she said means she does everything else too.
ReplyDeleteHeBean would understand, but MomBean doesn't. *shrug*
ReplyDeleteMillietoes....
I agree about the jibberish! We just use computers and they either work or they don't ! You will have to give yout Mom some purrs & headbutts when she comes home so she won't get stressed :)
ReplyDeleteGreat idea gor Churchill! Another Gizzy helping another cat!

That sounds like lots of stuff that your Mommy has to do. We are not sure what it is, but we bet it is important. We love your idea for helping Churchill. You and your Mommy are good kitties!
ReplyDeleteMy bean came home so tired from day hunting yesterday she didn't even have the energy to watch a moovee. Is that crazy or what. Hopefully today won't be so bad because I need her to help with the Photoshop on my valentines day entry in Skeezix contest.
ReplyDeleteNice toesies. Good job keeping them clean.
Cute toesies, Millie. I feel kind of bad for your mom. I hope she doesn't come home grumpy!
ReplyDeleteYep, life is grand. Just not for your mom right now. Things will get better. You just have to soothe her when she comes home. Make her sit down and relax a few minutes with your destressor motor's volumne turned up.

PS - Does your mom speak English? We understood very little of all that.

We are so lucky that our mom day hunts at home, and doesn't speak that jibberish language. Her only technical jargon is things like Rockyblocky and Frackywacky and Sillybooboos and Doodooheads and stuff like that.

I do not understand any of that! But I do not understand what my Mom does but it is that database thing too! It is all jibberish to me.
ReplyDeleteMillie - I'm with you - I have no idea what she's saying!!!
ReplyDeleteMillie,
ReplyDeleteOur Mommy's translation: "Your Mom will be very busy this week!" (Our Mommy is a data chick too.)
Hope this week is not too stressful! Make sure to give your Mom lots of purrs and affection.

Wow ... Please tell your momma not to be TOO busy to pet an' snuggle with you. Mine's been ... her words ... "Running Mach-10 with my hair on fire." She needs to slow the heck down!

It is no fun when our moms have to work hard. Maybe that will mean that she will be too tired when she gets home to do anything but sit on the couch so you can sit next to her.

ReplyDeleteIt is so sweet of yours mommie to auction tha Gizzy Quilt to help Churchill. She is busy.
Mine Mommie was a network engineer too and she talked like that. She really misses it. But she had to quit working to take care of Daddy Charley since his insurance won't gif him a nurse and he can't be left alone. Even though us cats would be glad to watch him. hee hee.
Purrs, KC
Your mommy is so wonderful to make a Gizzy Quilt for auction for Churchill, even tho she is so crazy busy. My mommy has been crazy busy and wouldn't even let us get online much these days.
ReplyDeleteMillie isn't it amazing how our busy mommies can get the jobs done! BRAVO for helping Churchill. Mommy will auction off one of her HOPE JEWEL and ear rings she made along with an ATC. We are a great bunch with big hearts here on the Cat Blogosphere!
