Ollie's Observations

Wooohoooo!

I am Diary of the Day! Wow! Thanks Catster!
Of course I have been rubbing it in to Sugar and Abner. Hey ... they bragged to me when they were Daily Diary Picks. That's right ... picks! But I won the big prize! Yeah, baby! I'm da cat! Well, at least until Artie decides to pin me again.

Thanks to Buddie, Hazel Lucy, Calvin & his crew, Mathis & his family, Oliver Pantherfoot (what a cool name!) and Hooch (another cool name!) for the rosettes and best wishes. You guys rock!

I'm gonna go see if there are any pancakes to eat. Happy Mardi Gras! Laissez les bon temps roule (which means 'Party On!' in English)!

Birthdays and Oscars and Pancakes, Oh MY!

Today is the birthday of two well-known (and super-sized) Catsters. Nike and Reebok are 4 years old today. These guys are HUGE! Reeb is more than twice my size! Wow. I wanna be that big! I'm scrawny.

Mom just weighed me (well, she held me while she weighed herself), and I still don't weigh 10 pounds! Dang it. Artie is bigger than me now, and he likes to pin me. I am not a wrestler! Do I look like Mickey Rourke? Gee, I hope not. That Dude is scary looking. Mom says he used to be handsome, but then he messed up his face boxing and the plastic surgery he got afterward made it worse. I think it would help if he would wash his hair and get some new glasses. Oh well, at least he is an animal lover.

Speaking of ... did any of you cats watch the Oscars last night? Can you say B O R I N G? We got so bored we stopped watching and then watched later on the DVR so we could fast forward. The only bit we really liked was when Ben Stiller came out in a disguise and made fun of Joaquin Phoenix's new look. MOL! That was 'grate'!

In case you didn't know, tomorrow is Fat Tuesday or Mardi Gras! It's the day before Lent, so you get to eat like a pig and party like crazy before you have to be good until Easter. Fat Tuesday is a day for eating ... pancakes especially! I like pancakes! Well, more specifically, I like to lick the syrup and butter off of them. Mmmmmm. Maybe if I eat lots of butter and syrup tomorrow, I'll gain a pound or two! That would be pawsome!

Mwhahahahah!

I love messing with my sisters! It's so much fun to get them all worked up! Hehehehe
So this morning, Daisy and I were in Mom's office with her. There's a Styrofoam box in there that we both like to sleep in. Anyway, I was looking out the window and I saw Daisy headed over to the box. So I lept over to Mom's desk and jumped down into the box just before Daisy could get to it! Mwhahahahahah! You shoulda seen the look on her face! Then, I gave her the Stink Eye. She hates that. It was great! Made my day! But then Mom put her hand over my face and told me to stop.

Then Daisy walked off to another part of the office. And I jumped out of the box. Mission accomplished! hehehehe
