How you doin?

“Great, thanks for asking.”

Not YOU human! 

Here’s another short clip of Chris Kattan-

“I missed Bollywood Hero.  D e v a s t a t e d.”

So was he when Wendy wouldn’t let him “fake” kiss her.

How you doin’?

She’s revamped this saying and I know my human pretends she’s got some killer locks, not to mention wearing really big heels whenever she says this.

Check out this weeks video of the week.  How you doin’?  Kid Style.

“Eliza, you know it’s you who says that, especially when in your Diva getup!”

So, how you doin’?

Snapped Story: Hungry Lizard Versus Sneaky Swan
Eliza Leigh and Humanoid Translator | September 25, 2009 | 2:00 pm
 

 

Hanging Rockcherry1 

Once there was a hungry lizard. 

He dreamed only of fresh, succulent cherries. 

 

 

Before he could get his reptilian hands on the ripe fruit it was snatched by a beautiful yet selfish swan. 

After wailing and losing a tail in grief the lizard began to plot his revenge. 

 

Payback you fowl creature!

Hello minions!

Finally, I’m getting some work out of my humanoid.  She’s been busy with school but has put a few sleep deprived hours aside to do a bit of blog cleaning.  She wanted a pat on the back but firstly, my legs aren’t big enough for that to be very effective and secondly it’s her job

Here’s a new page that will be featured in the sidebar soon, Eliza Leigh’s Opinions.  If you have any requests on future opinion posts add a comment here and tell me what you want. 

Other pages she’s currently working on is Extras and some of it’s little offshoots.  Once she wakes up and finishes those as well, you’ll hear about it hear.

Noses Grow & Not Just From Lying

Pinocchio isn’t the only one with an enlarged nose.  I caught my human despondently examining her widening nostrils.  I found it quite amusing to watch her sigh “I’m getting old”.  I pointed out the circles under her eyes, the wrinkles on her face and-

“Enough, they get the point.  I’m old.”

Well, those were more noticeable.  When I told her I heard ears grew but doubted noses did she argued and repeated a story her grandmother told her. 

“You mean the German fairy tales?  The boy who wouldn’t stop sucking his thumb so his mum cut it off?”

EWW!

 

“Or the one where a boy wouldn’t eat his soup-“

 Enough,  Barbarian!  I mean the one where the lady who knew your grandmother when young saw her again years later and  said, “What happened to your nose?”

“Oh, that one, ha-ha.  Mine isn’t growing I think I just broke it.”

You have issues.

“Obsessing over noses is normal, at least compared to talking to mutant ants.”

True but it’s just more verification for your records.

“What records?”

Want to know what makes your nose grow?

They don’t!

Gravity wages an arduous battle on the human body and the nose rarely escapes unscathed.  Between faces sagging, noses drooping and wrinkles creating unique web-like designs, humans are natural morphers.

I still think exoskeleton is the way to go!

 

“If you’re still thinking about Little-Suck-a-Thumb’s fate here’s a link to Der Struwwelpeter the ten story collection by Heinrich Hoffmann to terrify teach children.  If you can get someone to read it to you in German it’s marvelous otherwise you can get it in English or read it online.”

Noses, human, we were talking about noses.  Focus…oy.

From Forgotten English Calendar by Jeffrey Kacirk

Hmm…

“Don’t say it!”

What?  I was just going to say those bread eaters over at the Chitterie-Chatterie post will be fighting over this gem.

Video of the Week: Sound of Music Moment
Eliza Leigh and Humanoid Translator | September 16, 2009 | 8:02 am

We all need to take a moment occasionally.  Okay some need days.  Imagine you’re rushing to work via the public transportation system and when you’re running to your train (which hopefully won’t crash like a MBTA Commuter) you begin to hear a joyful voice. 

Julie Andrews is not announcing delays or that beer is not served until after ten in the morning but she is singing like any bad nun-in-training could.

Watch this delightful and I believe advertising ploy that went down in Belgium.  Because they get down there.  Especially, the man that begins the dance-a-thon, he was doing triple axles at least.

“Eliza, please let the readers watch the video.  They don’t know how lucky they are to watch it without a tone-deaf mutant ant chiming in.”

Oh yeah!  At least they-
