Hey, not to bust in on the love-talk, but anybody in the Boston area interested in Red Sox tickets? I am looking at the schedule of games on sale as of today, and a lot of the series are available. (Including the interleague home games, which are Atlanta, Cincinnati and Pittsburgh this year.) I am thinking about Minnesota at the end of July, or Oakland in May, or "the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim" (officially now LAA rather than ANA) in June. MFY tickets are not on sale right now.

Night games are just as convenient for me, although I know day games are a lot easier for out-of-towners. All those interested, drop me an email, OK?

Perkins the cat just sat on a postit note, which got stuck on his tail, which led to several minutes of trying to figure out what was chasing him, followed by running away from me as I tried to pull it off his tail.

Proving that cats are for mocking?

As opposed to stacking?

But, not stacking.

ETA: X-post, of course.

< rant > My hot water in my shower used to drip so badly that it would fill the room with steam while I was at work if I covered the drain too completely. then I had it fixed last week. yeah! no more drip! Well, the job was too well done, apparently. I was about to take a very badly needed shower this evening and turned the hot water knob and (drum roll) NOTHING came out! Gaaahhhh!

then when I called the maintenance guy he said sure he'd fix it...Monday morning! So I had to call the landlord and said call the maintenace guy back and tell him to fix it tommorrow. So I call him back and he says he'll call the landlord tommorrow morning.

I suspect the running away was because I was doing that scary laughing thing.

ION, I am drinking coffee with Godiva Liqueuer. It's yummy.

Also, someone should yell at me to go do that thing I wanted to do tonight.

eta: That sucks, quester. I hope it gets fixed soon.

I feel your pain, quester. Last weekend, the hot water heater broke on Friday, and they didn't replace it until Monday night.

Oy! P-C! It was the prospect of not being able to shower for work on Monday that made me assertive enough to demand a fix on Sunday.

I got to laugh at 2 tuxedo gray kitties tonight. They are amazingly tolerant of having their ears pulled off by a 10 month old while looking at me pleadingly. t /I like kidlets I still don't get dogs. There were 2. They were either shoving their noses at your rear or trying to eat cat poop. Or getting in the way in a non-kick'em outta way way (cats just got their heads tripped over to no one's ill effect) or dogsmelly. I know other people love them, but.... I tolerate them.

Also? Reason umpteen kazillion I adore my brother: long conversations/arguments over religion and biological gender issues. It's fun. No one gets cranky.

Also in the never fallen disclaimer category, I'd have to say that feelings of superiority in the ooky sense would have to be absent, for me. As in, different, but complimentary. If there is a Better than You global issue at work, there be problems.
