Ali, how heartbreaking. Make me want to go snuggle my beasts.

Also mom and I polished off a bottle of wine. I think we are both a bit tipsy. And hilarious. (See: polished off bottle of wine)

I did the pecan-crusted (pronounce it as you wish, I have had pinot noir and am benevolent) pan-roasted salmon over micro-greens with a Morello cherry sauce. With sauteed mushrooms and spinach on the side. I feel Deb-like the dinner was so good. The sides were extraneous given that we had brie and an artichoke/hearts of palm dip thing to start. I am full and happy.

I was punching the DVD button pretty hard, so maybe the code isn't right. I'll have him redo it before he leaves.

Deb--go snuggle all your kitties! I was spoiling my girl yesterday. It's just so frustrating for Mom, Vien is only about 8, but the first few years were really hard on him and Mom's only had him for a few years. Plus before him she had several horrible cats, including Zoe the insane cat. So I've been so happy Mom found a cat. She said that after Vien (whenever that is) she won't get a pet for a long time she's just been burned too many times.

Damn. Just - damn.

I need to gently set Gad on the floor, and go eat dinner, seeing as how I forgot to eat lunch.

I'm going for a walk. 10:45 pm and it's 44 degrees out. Balmy.

Compared to last week's -7 F and 35 MPH winds, this will be a picnic.

Zenkitty, libkitty, and Lilty; I am sending the ma to all your relatives.

and ma~ to askye's mom's kitty.

Safely home, hurrah! And since this is the only time our lovely next-door neighbors have ever been gone for an extended period of time overlapping with us, I'm delighted to see we still own two cars, two computers, one TV, etc.

Healthma to Zenkitty's, libkitty's, and Lilty's relatives.

I just used the last of the bath bombs I got from Deena during the Nilly tour.

I am kind of sad, but I smell good

I have not used either of the bath bombs I got from Deena, mostly because I need to finish cleaning my tub (it's been a shower-only tub for more years than it's been mine, and cleaning it is coming up as part of the Sean Cleans Everything He Owns program).

Also, I don't want to explode.

I am going to learn to make bubble bar slices.

It *looks* simple enough....

Also, the kitten is being cute. In that, as we just got home from Whole Foods, she is positioning herself in front of any place we stand and flopping full length so that we pay attention to her.

awww... that's what Bert used to do.

IOcatN. percy is much more needy - he wants more attention . this means I have to play chase in the morning , and he wants to play catch the sting more. OTOH, he sat in Matt's lap for 10 minutes today. He will never be a loveslut, but we welcome his somewhat more stingy love.
