It's All About Craig Ferguson (and Bubbles, the Rifleman and some Photos)

There's nothin' quite like a fresh, steamy cup of coffee and biscuits, hot from the oven, stuffed with a thick, slightly salted slice of tomato to start your day off right.

Take my word for it. I wouldn't steer ya'll wrong when it comes to mater biscuits.

For the first time in a couple of weeks, I was able to stay up last night and watch most of The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson. I made it through the opening and the email before I ran out of steam. Speaking of the Fergburger, I had this comment on yesterday's post from Bluez:

Fuhgeddabout ole Dick, the REAL news of the week is your Boy Craig beating Conan's late night tv show rating! Since I've started working later hours I've started watching your beloved Craig and he's frickin hysterical! Conan Schmonan!!

I also had an email from Cathy, one of my fellow Fergusfans, linking me to this article, "Ferguson Tops O'Brien for First Time." The news that Craiggers blew past Conan in the ratings didn't stop there. When I logged on to Twitter, I found this tweet from LateShowUK and another from Cracked (it's a couple entries down the page.)

I'm so proud... *brushing away a tear*

*snort*

Anywho, way to go Ferburger. I always knew you kicked bootay.

Ma has asked me to make a grocery run this afternoon. She's out of Coke's (God Forbid!) and peed-a-little-pads. I'll just grab some sandwich meat and stuff to hold us over until payday. There's plenty of meat in the freezer, we're just out of easy stuff for Ma and the Amazon to nuke. Oh and I WILL REMEMBER to pick up some blank DVDs. If I have to tatoo it on my forehead. I never told ya'll exactly why I need new ones did I? I had a stack of them which I recorded Ferguson on two shows at a time, then I'd erase them and start over. That one stack lasted me almost two years. I didn't re-record on all of them. There are a few I've kept, safe in the cabinet, when things were said that.. well.. anyway.. I've kept some. But the remaining stack? A few weeks ago when I was on a cleaning spree, I had a bowl of cheap cleaning liquid sitting on the floor while I was on my knees attacking the dust bunnies on the entertainment center, when I accidentally dumped the whole stack in the bowl.

They didn't work anymore after that.

Can you say "oops?"

Anywho, after I make a grocery run I plan to work on my shop a little. I'm currently working on adding products featuring some of the gazillion photos I've taken around the mountains over the past couple of years. I'd like to do some calendars with different photos too eventually. Once I get those added, I'm going to try to get back into sketching. I even bought supplies. We'll see how that works out.

I'm only working three days this week. I'm taking off Thursday and Friday. I get to go back to Dr. Sexypants the rheumatologist in Big City Thursday, so I decided to just take a long weekend. I want to get some stuff done around the house and there's not a lot of work going on at the office right now anyway.

Oh yeah, I almost forgot! I stealthily snapped some photos while Bubbles was gone the other day. The first is two of the three buckets o' candy. Actually, the third was an Easter basket packed full, but all the candy was from Halloween.




Anywho.. I'd better get my ass in gear, my back field in motion and with the program.

I'll see ya'll later.

Blessings to ya'll.

Update: I noticed some stuff showing in that second picture that probably wasn't a good idea. I'll have to edit it later and put it back up.

Mmmm coffee, biscuits....I haven't had breakfast yet. Darn it. And I MUCH prefer Craig Ferguson to Conan. I can't stand Conan. Have a great weekend!

I dearly want a mater biscuit now - and if you ain't Southern, people don't get it. I have a place here has them on the menu.

Yummmm.

Oh, and you have to admit - the Rifleman is hot.

:)

Poor Bubbles...she needs to get a life almost as badly as I do. I watched the Fergberger last night for the first time in a while and was highly entertained. Never have cared much for Conan.

A big woo-hoo is well deserved by Craig as his show is super good, no two ways about it. The "mater biscuit" may be a southern thing but it sounds darned tasty to this old northern girl. And The Rifleman -geez Louise, he was on back when I was in high school probably when Bubbles' parents were just learning to walk.

The Rifleman is a total stud even if I have no idea who he is.

Also, I'm so scared I'm going to have to start buying those "peed a little" pads for my son because he'll outgrow diapers before he outgrows his NEED for diapers. *sigh*

KG said...

PS - that poem she has next to the Rifleman is such a WEIRD thing to have next to a picture of the Rifleman.

That's how I go to the doctor too. I have an appointment this coming Thursday, so I took Thursday and Friday off. I always do it that way. When a company gives you this much vacation time, ya hafta figure out a way to use it!

love those buckets of salmonella candies! Yummy.

I'm so proud of Craig. We were there from the start and we always knew he was special.
