Big Foot, the Skunk Ape, and the Booger Monster

If you are wondering if Big Foot, the Skunk Ape, and the Booger Monster exist., I can tell you they do. I know that  because I live with them. Big Foot is the leader. He leaves hair samples all over the bathroom everyday and I have tripped over the massive shoes he wears. He is BIG. 

Big Foot wears many disguises, when I met him he looked like a normal, attractive man,  it wasn't unitl I married him that I discovered the shedding problem. Don't get me wrong, I can't knit a sweater from his back hair, but my tile floor has a fur rug in it whenever he has used it. And worse than the shedding and the big shoes are the spawn of Big Foot, the Skunk Ape and the Booger Monster.


The Skunk Ape, refuses to bathe. I have patiently explained to him  "People will like you more if you smell good" but it falls on deaf ears. He has not begun to shed like his sire but the feet are huge and I am afraid he will grow into them. 

The Skunk Apes brother is the Booger Monster. When I went to college and studied hard to get good grades I never in a million years imagined that I would grow up to be a human Kleenex. The Booger Monster has a perpetually drippy nose. He believes sleeves were invented for him to wipe said nose upon. He also believes that is is perfectly acceptable to give mommy a hug and then rub the before mentioned nose all over mommy's shirt. I am disgusted just thinking about it. I have begged him to stop but he looks at me with those big brown eyes and says " But Mommy, I am just Loving on you." What do you say to that? "Love doesn't have Boogers?"

It is difficult to catch these three, on film, in their natural habitat. And even more difficult to get them to smile. I have a computer full of blurry, and unsmiling photo's. But At least I know they exist. And now you do too.

  16. Grew up with 4 stinky brothers, then had my step-daughters, whom my husband and I lovingly called our little goats.(They smelled like goats!)for a number of years, so even if you had a girl, you would not escape boogerdom and goatville. Nice to find you on VoiceBoks:)

  21. Stopping by from the voiceBoks blog hop group! :)

    This post is hysterical! I have a Big Foot of my own, only his feet aren't that big, they look more like Fred Flintsone feet. LOL He is awful hairy, though! As for the Booger Monster...My daughter does the exact same thing. I tell her that I love her and her hugs and kisses, but I am not her personal kleenex. LOL She also likes to think I'm her personal napkin too... We're working on both of these issues! LOL

  22. Hi, stopping by from voiceBoks! :)

    I also have a Big Foot. HOW do they shed so much? And make so much noise? You would think that Big Foot hunters would be able to find them from the noise alone. Their baby-waking skills are legendary...

    I'm gladly following on GFC and Networked blogs. Can't wait to read more.

  23. Hi! I came by (late of course) from the Wednesday blog hop and am now a new follower of your blog thru GFC and I also sent a friend request on Facebook. I would really love a follow back on both of these if you don't mind. I love that you chose an old fashioned kinda woman as your icon and badge. We will need to have our mother's resolve to make it thru this financial crisis if something isn't done soon by Congress and the President. Thanks for your help and have a great week.
