To all the girls i've loved before....

I am a bear's bear which is why I think the lady bears find me likable. Here are some of my ex's. From left to right: Tangy, Fresca (not technically and ex), Wendy, me (hehe), and Claudette.



We broke up for various reasons. Take Tangy for instance. She was too clingy. She wanted me to serenade her with ballads (and as you know, I am not a musical bear), write and dedicate loooove  poems to her, and do all sorts of fanciful acts of chivalry. Needless to say, being a bear's bear and all, I shun all acts of romance in favor of action and adventure!

Then there was Claudette with her fur coat, pillbox cap and expensive purse. Marilyn Monroe was her idol so she drew her fashion inspirations from her, declaring herself the original material bear. Claudette was very very VERY high maintenance. She want me to buy her diamonds and gems and all sorts of things like corvettes and bentleys and such. I only bought her the hat because we were supposed to go to the Kentucky Derby one year.  We never made it to the derby because of her coat. I did not approve of the fur coat. We had a big row over it when she tried making ME stuff it into my suitcase before we headed out. I never approved of the thing. It had been all white, which as you can imagine really upset me. she assured me that it was not made of an arctic animal, but I was infuriated that she wore any type of animal at all! That is when I threw pink paint all over it. And that was that.

Then there was Wendy. Oh, Wendy. She was a lovely girl but she had some issues with the bottle. She was into vodka and scotch because neither stained her fur if she spilled it on herself, which she inevitably did. She would drink an entire bottle all by herself, then she got out of control dancing all over the place, including on my head. Eventually she'd pass out for the night and I would have to carry her home. Never any fun. When she was sober she was quite lovely but often feeling ill so she was never up for visits to coney island. I didn't ride the ferris wheel once that summer.

Update - The Visitors

Things started out nicely enough...Mrs. Big Guy brought home some goodies for me, which I tested before the guests arrived. My favorite was dipping the bearitos into this spicy cheese sauce.....








I was feeling jolly, and my tummy was warm and happy too. The doorbell rang and I sat nicely on the sofa ready to meet these visitors. Then I saw it. Beast's friend! No one told me it was Beast's friend coming for a visit!!! I was upset having two beasts in MY apartment. I was happy that I took Mr. Bear's advice and didn't let my guard down too much, or else I would have been in major trouble. Needless to say....I spent the afternoon in the bedroom. At least I had my fill of snacks before Beast 2's arrival. He only stayed for 2 hours so I was able to go out and polish off the bear munchies once they left. Phew. Too much stress for a lazy Sunday bear.


Big Guy + Mrs. Big Guy + Visitors = Snacks for Harry!

Mrs. Big guy just went to the food store to buy snacks for visitors that are coming over this afternoon. I think this means good things for a hungry bear like me! I requested some delicious cheese. I am into horseradish cheese lately. Don't worry, it is not made of horsies, but rather tastes a bit like a creamy spicy tummy treat.

I am very friendly to strangers when there are snacks involved so I am not nervous at all about today's activities. 

....She's Back!!! I will check out the snacks and update my blog with the outcome :)

Bearplace at work - Unauthorized!

I have been helping Mrs. Big Guy at her office lately. It is her busiest time of the year so I give her two extra paws in exchange for food. I was able to go on Bearplace at her office when she went to fetch our lunch. Something funny happened and now I cannot get to Bearplace from her work computer. The work people seem to have done something. I think it is not right to deprive a bear of his friends in the middle of a busy workday. I did discover that the blog site does work! Maybe I will have to post more blogs instead. :-)

No Sleep In Brooklyn

I have insomnia. It is official. I am wondering if I ought to eat more cheeseballs or if maybe having another thanksgiving dinner will help me fall asleep. Perhaps I will go to the kitchen now...

Central Park Advenures

One day I went to New York City's backyard...Central Park. It took a while to get there so I was awfully thirsty and hungry.

Here I am stopping at the Jackie Kennedy Onassis Reservoir for a drink of water. 

I then went all the way up to the Boathouse and hid in the bushes. I was waiting for them to open for lunch.
