Skunks: 1, Emily: 0 (and other random blogging)

I really had no intention of blogging this week. Going with the same "blog on vacation, along with blogger" thing that Kris disapproved of last time I was on vacation.

Here's the thing. It's Friday night, Joe's at his Aunt's watching a movie and I was just walking out the door to get him when I was ambushed by giant skunks that are having a late night snack on whatever icky grossness is contained in the four yellow garbage bags out front.

So here I sit, held hostage by M. and Mme. LePew with my son somewhat stranded (not that he minds) at his Aunt's.

Thankfully, Uncle Kevin will arrive shortly, in his silver rescue mini-van, chase away my captors and deliver Joe safely.

Oh and if you're wondering why I am sitting at home on a Friday night when Joe's watching a movie at his Aunt's, it's because I have no life and Mark is away and (this is so going to make you throw up in your mouth a little) I am pouty and missing him.

Yeah, bite me, we are in fact one of those couples that hates it when one half of said couple leaves for an extended period of time.

Sidenote - Mark is with Little Ray (of www.raysreptiles.com ) who would so know how to handle my skunk issue. He's not all about the reptiles you know.

Check out the site, visit the zoo often. If "Ray" is around, he puts on a great show.
