Fractious Cats, Rampaging Figments, & THE QUEEN IS COMING

Some days you're the calm, cool, collected vet tech, other days you're the fractious cat:

Admit it, you needed this laugh today. :p

And for the days you like to imagine yourself gleefully stomping buildings:

(By Larry Quach Art)

One little spark

Of devastation

Is the fun part

Of imagining burning it all down because COME ON 2020 CAN'T WE SKIP HURRICANE SEASON JUST THIS ONCE? ...Please?

;)

I've had so many of you recommend the new She-Rah to me that I immediately thought of y'all when I spotted Sami Bess' cosplay:

She also does an incredible Xena!

Give her a follow for more.

I've been following Sky since she made her jaw-dropping Spaceship Earth dress, and she just unveiled her latest Disney park icon:

Sky Gets Fancy

 Sorcerer Mickey's hat from Hollywood Studios! Hit the link to browse her IG, she has dress versions of the Tree of Life, Haunted Mansion, and more.

You ever watch some of these slick craft videos and think, "Well THAT'S obviously witchcraft"? That's me with this tiny teddy bear:

I need a young priest, an old priest, and a thin brown washcloth.

Over on Weird Secondhand Finds, Joan Rogers had her hubby give this pretty rotary phone a brilliant upgrade:

"See the light where the phone meets the sky? IT CALLS ME"

(This is what happens when you love puns and Disney songs just a little too much.)

Joan's hubby harvested the gooseneck from an old lamp, and used small LEDs they bought on Amazon. Go see Joan's original post for more pics and details - 'cuz I'm not the only one who wants to do this now, right?

  I've watched this next video multiple times, and it never gets old. Prepare for the best 3 minutes of your day:

Some of the best ones are near the end, so be sure to watch the whole thing. :D

(The quote is from The Princess Diaries, btw, in case you're like me and didn't remember that part.)

 LEGO fans, have you seen this?

 LEGO just released a retro NES kit, and when you turn the crank on the TV the screen scrolls and Mario jumps and the music plays and ermergersh this is so cute. Check out all the details on the LEGO website.

And finally, I'm going to inflict an ancient earworm on you, because this blast from the past makes me laugh. Do any of you remember the group Rockapella from the 90's kids' game show Where In The World Is Carmen Sandiego?

Oh yeah, we're going on a DEEP DIVE today. Buckle up.

Well, I recently fell down a small rabbit hole looking up Rockapella albums, and long story short(er), this is one of the few songs I could find on Youtube with the original members from the 1990's. It's SUPER catchy while also being cringy in a ridiculous way, which is a combo I think we can all appreciate:

(NOTE TO PARENTS: The song contains the word "damn")

Omigosh, the hair, the matching leather jackets... so much early 90s goodness here.

.... You're judging me for liking this, aren't you. I can feel it from here. LOL

And on that note, have a wonderful rest of your weekend, gang. If you want to return the favor and link me to your favorite old ridiculous earworms, fire away in the comments. The sillier, the better!
