You've GOT to be kidding me...

It's almost 12:30 on Friday night after Susi's wedding. I'm starting to upload the pictures from the day's wonderful events and I turned on the TV for some noise. I had to post right away because I'm absolutely in awe of the current program (program...isn't that what my Grandma called TV shows?). It's a documentary all about ferrets and ferret owners. Called "Ferrets: The Pursuit of Excellence.," That's right. You read that right. Why am I watching it? Because it is quite possibly the oddest thing I have ever seen. As I'm typing a rather "interesting" ferret owner is giving her ferret a shower. Yes. A shower. She's holding the ferret at it's armpits under the shower head and using Brilliant Brunette Shampoo. WHAT'S. HAPPENING. I have a few comments:

1. Isn't it illegal to own ferrets - don't they carry the plague or something?
2. Ferret owners, at least the owners interviewed in the documentary, need to get out more.
3. Is this for real? Really?

And I quote:

"I have pots of roses around my house and I bury my ferrets in the pots. That way the ferrets are always alive and I take them with me wherever I move."

"For me, it seemed like as my children got older, grew up and got out that I replaced them with ferrets."

I can't really describe in words what's happening right now in front of me. I'm just going to have to let you see these previews from PBS.









I'm just so embarrassed right now.
