Life of Fun and Games
A simple life of fun and games might get a little boring after a while. Or maybe not.
(This comic strip was previously published on February 22, 2010.)
Red (Ann Marie) from Momma’s Money Matters recently adopted a pair of Wombies and she caputured this shot of Claret and Bruno as they were preparing for a Beach Party. You can read the whole story on the Wombies’ Beach Party post on M3.
Me too 😯
I think we need to fire the press agent!
We need funner people in charge!
I was informed…but I didn’t listen.
Chris says I never listen either!
well someone great once said hear no evil,say no evil and see no evil…no one ever said anything about fun!!
and besides opposite of evil is fun so pls Fraz do not listen to anyone
I’ll listen to you, but no one else!
Well at least none of the adulty people around here!
Well I was just about to hand you a chocolate surprise but Chris might not like it 🙁 Binky doesn’t mind as long as he can finish his rocket projects so I think we might be able to have a party after all, if Chris is okay with it? 🙂
If not, bring it to our place. The rain has stopped and there is plenty of sunshine.
Or we could have it at your place!
My place it is then. Let me get out some trays.
I’ll bring the chocolates! Lots and lots of chocolates!
Yes i like the sound of a party at your place Red but after saying that, why not have three parties? One at your place, another on Fraz’s Island and of course the third right inside my realm of wickedness, don’t worry I will supply all the best treats 🙂 🙂
That sounds even better!
Parties everywhere!
All at once!
And non-stop!!
Chris doesn’t like anything, but that won’t stop us from having a party! We could have it at my island or palace.
Wow another party and that makes four 🙂 Hey I like the thought of these chocolates, wine gums and pancake parties Fraz 🙂
I hope everyone likes them! Well everyone but the zombies!
We have the traps set for those Zombies so we should be safe 🙂
We should be. But I’m still kinda afraid of them!
Don’t worry Fraz they are scared of Vampys and now that you are a Prince of Vampys they will run away from you 🙂
Really?? I didn’t know that! I feel a lot better now.
Soma isn’t an adult?
No! She’s way too cool to be an adult!
Who told you Bearman? It better have not been Tinkerbell, she told me it was a secret!!!!
I hear Tinkerbell is a real tattletale.
I think Peter has been a bad influence!!!!
Never trust anyone named Peter.
That Loon can be naughty too 🙂
Maybe I should keep her on a short stick?
That’s a good idea 🙂
And in a cage, too.
😯 not a cage!!!!!
It’d be a nice cage! With cable and chocolate.
We can keep her close to us just in case we need extra chocolates, actually we can all share them out equally, ten for you, seven for me and five for Loon, that sounds a good idea what do you think? 🙂 Shhhhhh Winky Loon might hear you 🙂
(psst–that sounds pretty fair to me!)
Tinkerbell is a blabbermouth. She told me who you got mono from too.
I guess she’s a liar, too.
It sounds like a den of chattering fibbers to me, we had better watch out for them i think 🙂
I wonder if Tinkerbell’s been hanging out with the zombies? Or maybe something worse?
It sounds like one of the wailing Banshees to me Winky but if there’s plenty of chocolate around they are usually quite friendly 🙂
Well we should have nothing to worry about then! There’s always plenty of chocolate around me!
I think it’s wise to stay away from Tinkerbell, she is sounding like a real piece of work!!!!
Yeah, I think she went to the dark side!
She has one of those light-sabre thingys too so we need to be careful 🙂
Tinkerbell’s more dangerous than I thought! Maybe we can put her in a cage, too?
Thank you for posting my little guys! Still love the sunscreen 🙂
Sunscreen looks adorable, and so does their outfits. 🙂
They’re really into polka dots!
What about polka music?
I think we’ll have to ask Claret and Bruno about that.
Claret is a rocker (with a soft spot for classical) and Bruno is into goat roping music.
Goat roping music?
…country.
Oh, okay. Bruno should try Chipmunks In Low Places.
She thinks it is funny. I like Garth and Waylon and Johnny Cash.
You should like whatever music you like, Bruno. Country music is very popular.
It would not be so bad if he did not want me to “fiddle”.
Maybe you could convince him to take lessons?
No way I am playing that sissy string thing. Guitar, yes. Fiddle, never.
I’m not very musical, so they both seem somewhat similar to me. They’re both strings, aren’t they?
Yes, but that sawing she does is just sissy. Guitars are cool. Fiddles are for girls.
I thought there were some good Country fiddlers out there. There certainly are some great Classical violinists that aren’t sissies!
You cannot dance to classical music.
What about waltzes?
Oh, like in a monkey suit? Sissy stuff. Like cotillion, yuck. I mean real dancing. You know, like line dancing and square dancing. Where you don’t have to get all mushy.
I guess you should just stick to guitar, then. And maybe drums. Drums aren’t sissy.
🙂 lol
Goat raping music?
I’d like to see a goat rapper!
How about a skunk rapper? 🙂
I think that might be stinky.
Probably too stinky for his shirt, it should be sexy but stinky fits their profile much better 🙂
And too stinky for my pirate ship, too. Unless he promises not to do his stinky thing!
They don’t care where they stink up, even your Pirate Ship isn’t safe 🙁
Then Mr. Skunky can’t come on my ship! Or I’ll be very mad!
Thanks, Deb! If I can break away after the trailer, I am going to make them some new outfits for other adventures. xxx
You’re welcome, Red! I hope Claret and Bruno had a good trip.
it is really very cute and fun Red 🙂
Thank you, Soma. They are such fun 🙂
You certainly dressed them for the occasion, everyone wants some of those wicked styles 🙂
Have to get together a wombie-adopter companion line of clothes. I think I will go for red or black rather than the dots…
(She says with a brand new bikini with stars instead of dots.)
Wombie adoption outfits! Now why didn’t I think of that?
I need a shirt that says, “I am a Wombie Momma”. I am already advertising for Bearman. I would totally wear a Wombie adoption shirt!
I could make you one. I just have to think about the design. With Bruno and Claret on it?
Oh, that would be cool! With the necklace and bow tie??
I can send you ones with nothing else on them but that.
If you want that, I might have to reproduce it since the original picture I supplied you with isn’t really of sufficient resolution to print very well.
I could send you the embellishments to add to your rendition…Easier or no?
Yes, that might work.
Yes it is, Fraz.
It is?
Well someone better tell Binky!
I just mentioned it to him but I think he was too busy powering up the rocket boosters 🙁
That is his fun and games o.O
Yeah, Binky plays with his rockets and space stuff all the time!
See how distracting fun is???
But I bet he won’t admit he’s having fun!
When Binky’s working on his rockets, he doesn’t hear anyone.
Maybe it has something to do with those big earplugs that stops him from hearing you? 🙁
It might be. And he’s kinda crazy about his rockets, too!
I wonder when we are all going to blast off and search for the Dark Matter? 🙂 It seems a long time ago now…
Binky takes forever to build a new rocket! Maybe because he’s crashed a few and is scared or something.
I hope we don’t crash or that dark matter had better be chocolate or else 🙁
I guess it’s good that we have Winky’s Wonka chocolate factory to get chocolate from while we wait. Because we might have a long time to wait.
I hate it when I get all vowels in Wombrabble.
I usually end up with X Y and Q’s!
I can teach you all sorts of words for those letters.
Well teach away! All I could think of was Qxy!
And someone will call you on that one, I am certain…
I didn’t use it. I just thought of it. It wouldn’t be so bad if I got some vowels, too.
Yes. Vowels are pretty important, Winky.
Yeah, you can’t spell “chocolate” without a whole bunch of them!
You make them and I will eat them, the chocolates I mean 🙂
Yeah, making chocolates and eating them is a lot more fun than trying to spell them!
And you can’t write anything down with a spoon either so it’s a good thing that the chocolate fudge is for eating 🙂
Fudge is almost too good to eat, but then what else would we do with it?
You’re right, let’s keep on eating it and hope it never runs out 🙂
We won’t run out! My factory can make it faster than we can eat it!
Binky needs to enlighten up!
Yeah!
Whatever that means.
AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW
super aww
life is not all fun and games no
but In Wombania it is !!!!!!!!!!
and Bruno and Claret
what perfect names ……….
and so very Red’s style 🙂
Love You guys

Life is fun and games as long as I’m around! And especially when there’s no school!
Claret makes school fun. She is always finished first. It means more time for fun and games!
Claret needs to visit me and make my school fun!
She does make it fun, but it still could be shorter…
But you would not learn as much, Bruno. Fraz, school can be fun. Especially using chocolate teaching tools and wine gum place markers.
School is more fun when there’s chocolate or wine gums involved. Or pirates.
Shorter is definitely better!
It would be shorter if he would hurry along…
That’s what my teacher says to me!
A Fun Day To all You Wombies and Humans ……..
and Daisy Says Hi 🙂
she is a very happy Wombie – 🙂 Violet is sleeping …….. she sleeps about 20 hours a day ………
Daisy is the exact opposite ….:)
She sends huggs to Bruno and Claret and all the other adopted Wombies 🙂
love u Guys xoxoxoxxoxoxoxoxo
Cat
Much love! Wombies wave from school work. Almost done for the day! They are planning on a huge exercise expo later with the steps, the exercise ball and the trampoline. Claret was looking for music last night on YouTube…meh. What are you going to do?
You make your Wombies do schoolwork in the summer??
Summer is over here. School started on Monday! We have far more holidays…as in weeks at a time.
No!! School can’t start until September!
But the extra holidays sound good!
We get a week off in October, November, two in January, one for Mardi Gras…it is really cool. 10 days at a time to do nothing…or everything.
That sounds pretty good. We only get a week off at Christmas and for March break. We should combine our summer with your holidays!
When do you get out for summer? We are done my May…
May?? We go almost to the end of June! No wonder you go back now. I think you get a better summer than us, too. I quit!
Momma makes the schedule look like the schools where the children ride the bus. But we are finished by lunch time and have play time all afternoon. And our vacations are always really long.
I’m taking the next bus down there! I want my school to be over by lunch, too!
I think Violet is sort of like Winky!
Totally 🙂
Daisy needs to come over, Aunt Cat.
Claret !!!!!!!! How cute are You 🙂
love u xo
Daisy spent the whole day with my sister and i .,…lol 🙂 and her baby …..
we had loads of fun ……
my sister lives in Toronto and she has a beautiful baby girl named Lily Eden .
So I introduced Daisy to them 🙂
xxx
Love Love Love xo
C
That is so cool. What a pretty name for a baby!
Do you think you could send Daisy to visit? It would be cool for her to play dress up with me and Little V.
xxx
Red – i mean Claret – 🙂

you guys must have a ton of gravatars …… 🙂 xoxooxoxxo
I have one
but this weekend i will work on a Daisy one ….:)
xoxoxoxoxo
Send her to Momma, and she will make us matching outfits. Maybe, Aunt Deb can send Tinky, too.
Daisy is pretty funny 🙂
she likes yoga pants and t- shorts most days … and flip flops …..
But she always has her headphones on 🙂
even when she is sleeping ………
Love to Mama Rouge ………..

Well sometimes it’s fun and games and sometimes it’s not. Bwahahahahahaha. I like being misinformed about fun and games too.
Have a terrific day. 🙂
When life is not fun, that’s when I like to be misinformed!
What kind of information did you get, Fraz?
Ps. How do we play Wombrabble?
My information said life IS all fun and games.
Wombrabble is a Wombie version of Scrabble with extra points for chocolate and wombat type words.
We need to see if Chris will host a game night where all the wombies can come over to your place and play.
We could do that at my island or my Moroccan palace! If we did it at Chris’s house, he’d probably flip out!
What is happening here..can’t believe i was misinformed too…omg
am sorry but i refuse to believe in it even now
how can life not be fun and more fun and some more of it 😯
Shh…it is. Just do not tell the adults.
Yeah, we’ll let them be in the dark! They don’t know how to have fun, anyway.
I’m beginning to think it’s Binky who is misinformed!
Life IS fun and games!
Fraz said it!
So now it’s official!
Little V just came by to tell me Life IS all fun and games.
You’re right, Little V!
Just don’t try to convince the adults!
This is a great snapshot of Bruno and Claret, in fact the Zombies are wanting similar beach attire, but I told them they wouldn’t have the brains for it 🙁
We will have to find them a suitable print 😉
As long as the zombies aren’t trying to fool us by dressing up as Wombies!
They are a lot taller but they might try the Toulouse Lautrec manoeuvre on you and trick you that way? 🙁 Just keep downwind of them at all times just in case 🙂
I don’t know what that manoeuvre is, but it sounds sneaky. So I’ll keep a lookout for them. And I’ll tell my pirate guards about them, too.
It’s where they pretend to be smaller by crawling around on their hands and knees, of course Toulouse Lautrec was in reality a shorter guy but the manoeuvre mimics this and can be very successful, unless they start groaning, so just be careful 🙂
I didn’t know! Thanks for the warning. That is pretty sneaky, especially if they wear some sort of wombat-suit disguise!
They are extremely cunning Fraz so watch out for any tell-tale signs, like smelly flip flops and sandals for instance, those Zombies like the beach look 🙁
Maybe I could get Binky to make some sort of zombie smell alarm so we’d know when the zombies are coming!
The little guy with the spots on his face is SO cute! Oh my…I sound like SUCH a newbie! 😛
It’s okay, Aunt Wendy. You will learn everyone’s name before too long 😉
I’m the little one! But I’m still captain of my pirate ship, and have my own island, and palace, and pizza shop, and genie, and a whole bunch more cool stuff!
Yes and Fraz always seems to be munching on something yummy but that’s because he is a chocolate fiend 🙂
Yeah, I guess I am! Most Wombies are. And some humans, too!
Yes well there are a lot of fiends roaming around but we just have to trip them into a hole or something 🙂
We could always lure them with chocolate! But I don’t know what we’d do with them. Maybe just keep feeding them chocolate?
We could feed them to the Lions too if they didn’t stink so much 🙁
You have loins??
There sure is more to life than fun & games. There’s fun & games & comics
Yeah, comics and comic books! And also that pirating thing.
Arrrr!!! yes me hearty who can forget the Pirating thing.
There’s also the Pie Rating thing. I love to rate pies. I had a curried chicken pie for lunch yesterday & rated it 9/10
I like my pies with apple or blueberry or cheesecake! Or pecans! Or ice cream!
I wouldn’t mind one of those pies Tony, actually it could be a regular feature at our beach parties 🙂
We could add the chicken pies to our parties, but I’ll stick to the other kinds!
Yes and I prefer the pancakes so maybe Tony’s pies will need that extra punch to be a winner at one of our parties 🙂
I don’t know what we could add. Maybe whipped cream? Or ice cream?
I’ve had kangaroo pie & rabbit pie & goat pie. I wonder what Wombat pie would tast like
I believe it would taste like you’re dead.
hey Tony whatever you do don’t ever try a Vampy Pie as they sometimes bite back 🙁
I can get behind that!
Me too!
It should be. Life is more enjoyable when you’re having fun and playing games. Thanks for stopping by.

And the Wombies certainly know how to have fun.
Ain’t that a fact.! To bad though. it should be Fun and Games all the time!
You should come to Wombania! It’s all fun and games here! (Just don’t listen to Binky.)
I wanna play Wombrabble. Looks like it could be fun!
It is fun, but it’s more fun if you’re a good speller.
Must’ve been misinformed too. Everything’s much easier when it’s all fun and games. La vie est un jeuuuu 🙂 TEAM FRAZ Xxx
I think it’s better to be misinformed!
Yay Team Fraz!!
This is awesome! Live life less serious is my philosophy! Thanks.
Mine too!
And mine 🙂
Claret and Bruno are absolutely adorable! I love the matching suits, polka dots and sunscreen! There’s nothing like a fun day in the sand! 🙂
Some of us Wombies actually have fashion sense. Wombie fashion sense.
It’s only fun and games. 🙂
For a ghost, perhaps.
I want to know what the official rules of Wamrabble are.
Wombrabble is kind of like Scabble. But you can only use Wombie words. For every word you make, you get a chocolate. And if you can’t think of a word, you get a chocolate anyway. The game is over when you run out of chocolates.
I would like to learn how to play that Wombrabble game of yours. Sure sounds like fun! The chocolate rewards make my mouth water already… 😛
Everyone’s a winner when you play Wombrabble since everyone gets chocolates!
Many of us have been misinformed 😉
Don’t worry Sabina there’s a big box of chocolates waiting for you as, everyone gets a large box of chocolates in Transylwombania you know? 🙂
Yeah, everyone that’s been misinformed gets the extra large box of extra yummy chocolates. Life IS a box of chocolates!
for kids… it is!
And Wombies, too!
Yeah, someone sold me a raw bill of goods too. I thought it was nothing but fun and games until I saw my pitiful score. 🙂
If I measure my score in chocolate, I’m not doing too bad!
Seconded, Fraz! There’s a time and place for fun, and that’s every time and every place.
That’s exactly what I think, too!
