I kiss the cat on the head too.

and since I don't tend to watch Paula Abdul I can't answer the 0ther question. but I will guess 2

I kiss my cat on the head, as well (and have been getting static shock from doing so lately!).

Paula Abdul did look remarkably out of it, so much so that I changed the channel.

OK, did anyone else get the schmoopy valentines day KY ad? Because that just freaked me out.

Yes, when I think Valentine's Day, I think "sexual lubricant!" Actually, considering that I usually associate lube with anal sex, it's even squickier.

And, as a complete aside, has anyone else ever heard of a mistrial being declared during the prosecution's opening statements? Because that's what just happened during the E2 nightclub trial today in Chicago (E2 was the nightclub where security sprayed pepper gas in an overcrowded room and caused a few dozen deaths from trampling). Apparently, the judge thought that the prosecutor's statements were overly prejudicial and called a halt to the whole thing.

I kiss my cats on the head all the time. I thought everybody did that.

I do too, but the first time my mother saw me do it, it freaked her out.

Evening all. I just got to spend the night watching the Peking Acrobats perform and all I can say about that is WOWzers. These people know their stuff! I mean, I knew the human body was capable of some pretty amazing feats but it really is something else to see it live.

I'm pretty much of the opinion that you shouldn't just wuv on Valentine's Day, but I'm even more of the opinion you shouldn't just lubricate then either.

Intermittent boxes of chocolate and cards are fine. Lubrication should be a tad more consistent.

I meant that having pets around, or babies around, tends to lead to non-sexual kissing, which this guy had no experience with.

I don't think this is the case. In my experience, the kissing babies thing is a women-only activity unless it's a guy kissing his own child. And pet-kissing is rare enough to be quite weird. I mean, I have seen people do it (usually to small, over-coddled lap pets), but most of the people I know are well aware that their pets roll in the dirt and use their tongues in lieu of toilet tissue...

I nuzzle my cats, but don't really kiss them. It's just kind of fun to rub my nose along their foreheads.

I'll probably be a cheek-kisser, not a mouth kisser. Mouths are wet and goopy.

Am I the only one who ran into kissy little boys a lot?

And I don't just mean when I was a little girl, who thought boys had cooties. I mean in a babysitting capacity, too. Little boys do way weirder things than kiss animals that live with them, and whom they like.

I knew lots of kissy little boys. Once they hit school though, they often stop being so demonstrative.

I don't think the top of my cat's head has any more germs than shaking hands with most folks. I'm not a big worrier about germs anyway. I may be crazy, but I think I read that somewhere.

My cat's currently staring at the CPU, trying to will the CD-drawer to open. She has a fascination with CD/DVD trays, and will whack them to prevent them from closing at the least opportunity--she loves my five-disc DVD player, especially since it's on the bottom shelf of my entertainment center only a few inches off the floor, and the perfect height for her to play with it when I change discs with the drawer open. Between that and her endless amusement when the microwave is in use, she's a tech-savvy kitty.
