~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
TODAY mom got on for a few minutes and are we glad she did!
LOOK WHAT AUNTIE INGRID MADE FOR ALL OF US:
THIS IS ALL OF US! TOGETHER! TOGETHER!
IN SPRING.............................
MOM said another windstorm is coming tonight but we
are going to enjoy the sound of Bellingham flying by.
It reminds us that there really is an "outside" and,
in the meantime, LOVE is what is inside!
Meeri-Guinea-Love-Infinite
in every language
in every country
in every heart
there ever was!
Auntie Ingrid and Uncle Helmut,
THANK YOU!!!!!!!
THIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL,
SQUEEEEEEEEEEE!

AND FAIRY SENDS MICE...WE ARE LOVED!

 

SPRING comes when one is loved.
No matter what form of wind, snow, rain,
hail, ice, sleet, or what-not may be pelting
the windows this week we received blooming
flowers from Bavaria and a wife for our
lonely Mousie...Fairy also sent mini-pics 
by our favorite artist, Molly Brett, 
(WHO TOLD HER?)
so what if mom isn't in a good way on
the outside? Her body is more fickle
than our weather, her heart more loved
than she ever thought possible,
and to all you MODS out there,
 you know who you,  for you 
ARE ALSO ON HER HAPPIEST-EVER!
LIST of SQUEEE FUN THINGS TO MAKE
once she is able!


Love means never having to
apologize for living in a broken
body because your friends will never
let your heart stay broken!


~love infinite~

From Bavaria...with Love

 

What is Friendship?
When an AchingHearted friend
finds or even makes the time to
soothe the pain of another...
Our precious Ingrid, mom of
Meeri-Boy in Bavaria - and we
don't know how she knew -
somehow felt that mom was
not well, that she was bed-bound,
that instead of spring we were in
for wind and snowstorms but mainly
that mom can barely get out of bed
so has been just cleaning the house
and feeling a little sad not to see
crocuses so she did get a $9.99 
orchid at Trader Joe last week...
even with Meeri-Boy, Ingrid sent
Spring to mom.
What is friendship?
THIS.
What is gratitude?
IT'S INSIDE.
Love,
all of us
You are all our friends.
Thank you as we continue struggling
to GAIN ALTITUDE.

WARNING FROM THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE!

WE HAVE JUST RECEIVED
A WARNING FROM THE
NATIONAL WEATHER
SERVICE THAT AN
IMPENDING WIND AND
SNOWSTORM IS DUE TO
HIT US TONIGHT AND
INTO TOMORROW WITH
WIND GUSTS AND SNOW...
Vinny: "Bhindi, we already know that."


I HAVE BEEN BETRAYED!
MOM HASN'T GAINED
ALTITUDE IN TWO DAYS,
SHE THOUGHT TODAY
WAS SUNDAY, SHE CALLED
EDWIN, WHO SAID IT WAS
SATURDAY...

Vinny: "Bhindi, we already know that, too. Pip-pip
and out with it!"

I AM THE EMBODIMENT
OF LOVE PERSONIFIED,
AS YOU CAN SEE...HOW MANY CAVIES
CAN FIT "INSIDE" BUT BECAUSE MOM
COULDN'T "GAIN ANY ALTITUDE" FOR TWO DAYS SHE HAS BEEN HOMEBOUND WHICH MEANS SHE CAN SEE EVERY LITTLE THING I DO AND SHE HAS A VERY BIG BAND-AID ON HER FINGER BECAUSE...

Vinny: "Go on, please, Bhindi. The court is waiting."


FINE. I ATTACKED VINNY THEN 
YUM-YUM COULD SMELL MY BITEY-SMELL ON VINNY'S FUR WHEN MOM SNATCHED HIM UP AND AFTER LOVING HIM AND CHECKING HIM FOR BITE-MARKS AND CALMING HIM PUT HIM BACK IN WITH YUM-YUM, WELL, THEN
YUM-YUM SMELLED "THE SMELL
OF MY MANHOOD DOMINANCE
MUSK" (available in department stores everywhere) BUT HE MISTOOK IT FOR
VINNY'S (LIKE HE EVEN GOTTA PAIR!) SO 
YUM-YUM ATTACKED VINNY SO THIS MORNING MOM LET US OUT TO JUST "RUN IT OFF"
BUT THEN EVERYBODY ATTACKED
EVERYBODY, SO SHE TOOK THE
RAMP OFF MY CAGE DIVIDER AND USED THE "DIVIDER" DIVIDING MY CAGE IN HALF FOR YUM-YUM AND VINNY, THEN PUT ME AND VINNY IN IT, MOVING YUM-YUM BACK "HOME" SINCE ME AND VINNY ALREADY PLAY IN MY CAGE EXCEPT NOW THERE'S A DIVIDER - ARE YOU FOLLOWING ALL THIS? MOM'S NOT... SHE IS STARING INTO SPACE WONDERING HOW COLORFUL EXPLODING STARS ARE...SO NOW SHE CAN EITHER GET THREE CAGES 
OR DO THE "SNIP-SNIP-I-FICATION" 
SO SHE CALLED EDWIN WHO AFFECTIONATELY CALLS ME
"MANGOSTEEN" AND THEY GET INTO WHETHER OR NOT IT'S SATURDAY OR SUNDAY BUT EVENTUALLY MOM GETS 'ROUND TO OFFERING HIM A CHOICE:
1-THREE SEPARATE (BUT EQUAL) CAGES OR...2-AND HE SAID, "WHEN YOU'RE WELL ENOUGH."
AND MOM SAID, "I'm not gonna do it!"
AND HE SAID, "NO, TAKE HIM
TO THE VET, I GOTTA GO."


AND THAT WAS THAT.


AND NOW MOM CAN'T GAIN ALTITUDE AND MY TOENAILS MADE HER BLEED BUT SHE HAS LOTS OF FIRST-AID IN CASE THE EPIC, GREAT PACIFIC NORTHWEST EARTH-SHATTERING KRAKATOA OF MODERN TIMES EARTHQUAKE, TSUNAMI, VOLCANO, PIPELINE EXPLOSION ALL-YOU-CAN-EAT CATASTROPHIC GEOLOGICAL EVENT WE SUPPOSED TO GET DOES HAPPEN, WE HAVE LOTS OF BAND-AIDS, JUST NO TAPE FOR THE GAUZE PADS...?
SO SHE PUT THAT ON HER "Things to do when Vertical" list and now I'M even on the list, gettin' snipped even though YumYum and Vinny are both calm and getting along just fine. See how powerful my musk is?
Why I gettin' punished for just bein' me, huh?


NO RESPECT FOR THE WELL-HUNG!
THE GOOD, THE BAD, THE BEAUTIFUL.
And the windy, the snowy, the altitude challenged.
(she'll never really be well enough to take me to the vet, so who's worried?!)
Let it snow, Let it snow, Let it snow...

MEET BEAUTIFUL LITTLE ALMOND JOY!

 

I live in Wisconsin and I used to look a lot
like VinnyGuinea all skinny and shiny and
speedy and hoppy and streaky-fast!
But lately...I'm drinking so much water
and my girth is expanding, like a muffin-top,
and my trousers are too tight and I crave
pickles and ice cream but I'm just a baby
CD3 rescued from the rescue and until
now I've never had a forever home
or been loved and now I even have
a friend, Millie Bea, who sniffs me through
our adjoining cages...but something feels
"different"
and what, oh what, could it be?
Aren't I the bees knees? Vinny's mom 
WANTS ME! AHA, but mine loves
me forever, it's just that well, how
many "me's" might there really be?
oops...better close my eyes.
you didn't see it here!!!!
nighters from Wisconsin, U.S.A!

SLEEK & CHIC OR...?

 

DO I LOOK...(FAT?)

BHINDI'S "SHARK-FIN!"

 

^^PLEASE CLICK-PIC^^
& ENLARGE TO SEE SHARK-FIN
TOP LEFT: IF. YOU. DARE!
IT has been so kind of you not to mention
it so we'll come out and tell you:
We already know that our little darling
Bhindi has a 'shark fin' that sticks up
and he has got to be one of the most
endearing piglets we have ever known.
Not only for his elongated length,
or his extraordinary swirlitude,
or the musky, fragrant, furrily-clad
ENDOWMENT he sports as such 
a youth (he is, technically, still a 
baby...?!) but for all these reasons
put together and although his
endowment allows him to remain
a bit more nervous and hyperactive
than the snip-snipped of his kind,
he is quite a lovely shark to brush
and comb...for once he starts purring
he gets so happy he begins barrel-rolling
over on his side, kicking out his little
feet, making us all giggle, he loves
being petted THAT MUCH, 
once he realizes that
"THE BIG HAND" is not
an eagle or the guy from that
horrid "Food Channel"
(PERISH THE THOUGHT!)


Does our little darling have a shark fin?
Yes!
Do we love him more for it?
Yes more!
 Have we any intentions to snip-his-kipper-cabooses?
No! They're just so cute,
they have fur with three different colors...
(albeit they ARE CONTINUING TO GROW,
WHICH CONCERNS US, particularly
given that VinnyGuinea...)


Well, say goodnight, piggies, the physical
therapist wore us out today! We had to
actually take out the garbage. He thinks mom
is her own worst enemy, that the apartment will
get her before any illnesses have a chance...

(and he's right!)


So, early to bed, and shark-fin to rise,
we leave you tonight
wearing shark-fin disguise
and the music from "JAWS"
as we tap our shark paws!


Good night,
love,
Vinny the BITER!
(oh bloody, HORK, YumYum, you 
told me she was already under the covers!)

MEERI-BOY'S LIFE IN PICTURES

^^^PRESS FOR FULL SIZE!


TODAY Ingrid sent us this beautiful collage of her Meeri-Boy's
life in pictures from when he was a young lad, to his marriage, 
his children and family, his days as an older fellow...we are
GRATITUDE INFINITE for every day he remains with us
for he is already EIGHT YEARS OLD and counting
yet determined to grow old in Bavaria surrounded by
his harem of seven, he remains our favorite, and
we send love in every breath we take in
and more love with every breath we breathe out
and love in every beat of our heart!
Please address your love to all today,
and - if it's quite all right - would
you include a little package covered
in bright, red hearts addressed to
"Meeri-Boy: Bavaria"
THANK YOU!
LOVE,
ALL OF US
