The Mojo Monkey is Kicking it into Gear


He's been sitting there, on my desk, quietly waiting--waiting for the right moment to work his Mojo Monkey Magic.  You'd never suspect that wee, sweet face. Nope.  If you didn't know better, you'd be saying to yourself "Wow, what a cute little monkey you've got there, Lin. I wish I had a monkey like that too."

But you wouldn't. Not really.

Because while he's laying there with his little monkey head in his little monkey arms,  he's secretly working his evil monkey madness on the office, making his intended target do stupid stuff--stuff that gets you fired. Yeah, Monkey!

And while it's taken him a long, long time to work his special magic, let's just say....uh.....it's working--working like a dream.

He's just been pacing himself all this time.

Hmmm... he does look like a naughty monkey making mischief for everyone around him...

I hope whatever he has done isn't too bad!! :(

Monkey can be very nasty. I would never trust one.

Grace said...

As long as his Mojo magic is making bad things happen for you...I say - let 'er rip!

BumbleVee said...

hmmm.... now who could that be?....the intended target that is....... curious......

Patty Woodland said...

So Karma is the monkey's bitch?

Hot Rocks said...

Haaaaa haaaahaaa.......I am sure you are just bursting to tell us what is going on! But I know you gotta be careful with what you post, when it comes to office stuff. I can only imagine the big grin on your face! I love Mojo Monkey!

BeadedTail said...

Fired? Did that monkey get someone fired?

Ann said...

Well as long as that monkey is working FOR you and not against you then I say it's all good :)

vanilla said...

So eee-ville.

Daisy said...

Maybe if you feed him a banana he will be too busy to cause trouble, at least for a while.

Lin said...

Catherine--He's innocent looking enough, but he's a rascal on the mojo!! No, it's a GOOD thing that he's wrecking havoc! We WANT him to mix up the evil--that's the whole point of having him. ;)

Chuck--I typically don't like monkeys, but this one....

Grace--Nope. He's working in my favor. :)

BumbleVee--Evil co-workers. :)

Patty--You betcha! Go Monkey!

Hot Rocks--BINGO! You guessed it! I love the Mojo Monkey too. :)

Beaded Tail--Nope. He just sort of encourages others to behave in ways that might get them fired. But they don't need much encouragement anyway. Keep your fingers crossed!

Ann--Yep! I love having the Mojo Monkey on my side!

Vanilla--Hahaha! YES. Yes, he is!

Daisy--Oh no, Daisy--we WANT him to cause this trouble. In fact, I will buy him a whole lot of bananas if it works! ;)

You see how tired I am - I just re-read my comment and that came out all wrong - not what I meant at all -

red dirt girl said...

I'm really dying to read the 'backstory' to mojo monkey and his antics ......!

Lin said...

Grace--that's okay, you have that whole moving excuse. I get it. :) That is so STRESSFUL!! Hope you are doing okay!

Red dirt girl--You can click on the link to sorta see some of it, but I can't share details right now. But, ooooh, I wish I could!! ;)

JODI said...

I think I am gonna get me a damn monkey to sit on my desk year, then he can think and store all my honest thoughts. You just wait and see my Mojo Monkey. LOL

Marg said...

What a good monkey that is. Hope his karma works. He is kind of cute. Hope you have a good day and the monkey does his job. Take care.

Duni said...

Well, he does look like he is up to something!!
Whatever it is...sounds like it's just what you wanted ;-)

p.s. Sammy and Molly just barely tolerate each other. I usually have to seperate them before things get out of control - you should see our curtains!!!

Lin said...

Jodi--I got that monkey from my eye doctor's office--they said he causes LOTS of office problems and turnover increases for whoever has him on their desk. I have him strategically placed.... and it's slowly working. :) If it works, I may just have to pass him on to you. Although I have a feeling he'd have his work cut out for him there.

Marg--He is VERY cute....and evil! Hee! Hee!

Duni--Uh oh. Give them some time and I'll bet it settles down. Have you tried those diffusers with the cat pheromones? That helped us a bit in the winter--fighting decreased a bit. I bought mine at Drs. Foster and Smith online.
