Art Crawl!!!

Why do it without rotating? To make it like Tetris?

Neopets has a fruit stacking game that is very much like cat-stacking.

I think my cats were just telling me that it was almost time for their dinner, which surprised me since I didn't think that it had been that long.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I can't cat stack at home! With either IE or Opera. Boo!

I am a shameful failure at cat stacking. I have yet to make it past level 6. I doubt I ever will. I was never any good at Tetris either. Ah, well, no chance of becoming addicted then.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I just watched Spiderman 2. (I'm making my way through the stack of DVDs that's been sitting on top of my TV for way too long.) That was just neat.

Signing the lease on a new apartment! Whee!

Oooh! Cool!

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Okay, I was just wondering. If a person is not very smart but also not shallow, what do they fall in love with in another person? How someone thinks and expresses themself has always been the big attraction for me, and if that's not important to me, what would I go by?

Non-intellectual, non-shallow things that one might find attractive: devotion to family, reliability, work ethic, determination, religious faith, optimism, zest for life, courage...

Great list, Flea! And I realize on reading it that most of those things are important to me, too.

After getting my car inspected (finally!) I spent the rest of the day with a 10 month old who thinks I'm pretty damned nifty. Which is saying something since she's in the midst of everyone-is-evil-and-roasts-babies -except-for-my-parents. So we hung out and her parents were able to go out for 5 hours and car shop and eat a restaurant meal all by themselves.

She only got melty starting at 4 (she needed a nap. She hates sleep these days. Basically, only her parents can settle her now.) so we popped the babycrack into the dvd player and...she fell asleep on my lap. Didn't sleep long, but spent about 15 minutes afterwards just lying in my lap blinking up at me studiously. She's still very baby-looking, but when she was being so quiet and serious, you could see the emerging toddler. So dear.

Now scarfing down some nice mooing steak, since I didn't get home until a little bit ago. Mmmmm garlic. Mmmmm cow.
