I love this picture – it screams (or, you know, chatters as squirrels tend to) for a caption! Have at it, boys and girls!

Who Am I?
My name is Judy Clement Wall. I write, and here in Zebra Sounds, I write about living creatively and reading books and hula-hooping in public and hiking on (and wandering off of) trails... especially north bound trails. Occasionally I share my unbridled enthusiasm for cheesecake. (But only occasionally. I promise.)
I write about the intersection of love and everything else at aHumanThing.net

“Oh that party last night… should’ve had fewer nut-beers…”
“If any of you squirrels out there can’t make the humans around you build you something similar, then… you’re a nut!”
“I built it, and they didn’t come.”
“How about you guys teach yourselves and I’ll just jump in when you say something wrong.”
As the CSI examined the body, he said “shot close range, looks like we have a little murder”
~fade out to Who Are You
(stolen from a great CSI episode)
“Hello, my name is Squirrel. I’m a nutaholic.”
=)) notaholic, that’s great Judy! :))
12 branches above Bill the squirrel thought for sure he was Bill the “flying” squirrel!?!

After a another long day arguing for health care reform Senator Squirrel (wow, that name can fit so many in congress) was dead on the dais!
or
Just out of view, the blade of the medieval squirrel guillotine was quickly approaching.

As noted in a certain blog, right a round 2:00 p.m. the body goes through a period where there is a distinct dip in alertness —– I am pretty sure it’s 2:00 p.m. in this picture!
I’m no good at captioning, but this photo made me laugh out loud!
I soooo feel like that squirrel … only I don’t look nearly as cute.
“Nuts!”
(He looks like a squirrel of few words)
Hey Tim, I was going to add that as Bill’s exclamation when he found out he was not a “flying” squirrel — but I thought it was overkill. Thanks for putting it in print!
“Man, I’m wiped. I run up trees, I run down trees, I run up trees, I run down trees…..the life of a squirrel is just nuts.”
*sigh*
“It’s so tiring being a secret squirrel …”
“gathering/hoarding/gathering/hoarding/gathering/hoarding ….why couldn’t I have been born a skunk? *sigh* At least sometimes they get to make a stink about their life…..”
“Fur coat in the middle of summer. What the hell was I thinking?”
Wow that was exhausting:
“Amen. The ushers will now pass the offering plates.”
Oh MY G O S H ….the video. the video……
:0)
[squirrel speaking william shatner style] why… is… little… chair… so far… from… little.. table. must… rest… now.
Mairi, The video totally makes your caption.
jb, You had both the boy and I giggling. (Well, he laughed. He’s manly. I giggled.)
I’ve had that look before. Wonder what a squirrel daydreams…
…being able to paint like Picasso, wishing I composed Bolero instead of Ravel, probably should have taken the beach route and not the freeway on Tuesday, I better call Halle Berry later, did I lock my car doors, I should be laying on the sands of Barbados with six, no…nine Victoria Secret Models all fighting over who gets to read M Chabon’s latest novel aloud to me (or fighting to be the first to rub suntan lotion on my shoulders. yeah, that one), Christmas time is great, what sound does a zebra make, I think I want a lemonade …..
Oh wait, did you say the “squirrel’s” daydreams???
Bobby, You killed me with that one! (Chabon mention – Nice touch!) Thank you for that stream of unconsciousness!
“I really need to get a new place. I’ve totally outgrown this one.”
Hey, That’s the teenage TV watching pose!
cmw
Just read jb’s.
Seriously got my laugh out loud medicine today!
thanks for that.
Be more professorial, my ass! Teaching sucks.

“Nothing good on tv AND my internet connection is down. Some days it just doesn’t pay to get out of the nest.”
“I am a squirrel and I am NOT smarter than a 5th grader….”
[and I love that video too]
