I like money better than people. People can so rarely be exchanged for goods and/or services!

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I just had to refer my mother to Snopes. sigh

The advise is sound, but the details were a bit faulty.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

My family all kiss cheeks. And I kiss my cat on the head, but mostly nuzzle the fur on the back of his neck.

You can get salmonella from raw cookie dough? Aw, man, all my illusions are shattered.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Stupid cold.

I just woke up drenched in sweat. Am waiting for the nose spray to take effect.

It will be fun to see Lee in March....

Trust my rage

I kiss my dogs on the head or occasionally on the top of their noses.

I don't generally kiss non-sex partners on the mouth, but I'm not opposed to it. Last year a male friend I hadn't seen in a while kissed me on the mouth when he saw me. It surprised me, but it also got me thinking about it later.

I think non-sexual physical intimacy (I guess I mean mostly hugging and kissing) can be a nice thing. Life gets lonely (at least to me) if you don't have a partner around every day to love on you.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Cashmere! There was a thing on teevee this morning, Debra Messing was talking about teaching her 9 month old sign language, and how it's cut down on crying and such because he can sort of talk to them, now. They specifically mentioned the signs for "milk" and "more" (as in Cheerios).

SWEET! We have our first class this morning and I'm very excited about it.

Mouths are wet and goopy.

To me, this is the best argument against mouth kissing. But the goopiness doesn't bother me.

I'm not afraid of germs and I love on my animals but would never kiss anything on the mouth that licks its own ass. It's a thing.

GRONK. Must find some form of caffeine.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Keep irrigating with saline nasal spray, tommy. And remember to drink plenty of water -- dehydration will make the cold feel worse. (I think half the reason that Theraflu seems to work so well for some people is that it makes you take in a significant portion of hot, non-caffeinated liquid.)

You Lee-visiting Chicagoistas have my envy!

I do kiss my kitties on the forehead and ears and such. I also occasionally very gently bite their ears which I swear blisses them out because it's a grooming behavior to them, so that it feels like their 'mom' is taking care of them.

I fear I use my pets as physical affection displacement devices, but at least they get something out of it, too.

Timelies!

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Timelies!

Happy belated Birthday Anne (and anyone else I missed)!

My late kitty used to get kissed on the forehead and top of his head. I on;y kiss dogs well away from slobber. I also kiss my godchildren on the head.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

HMOG. So, I got up all early, and was all excited to watch GMA, but no. A small plane crashed into a warehouse in New Jersey, so all the channels are showing just that. Now, granted, 12 people being killed sucks, and apparently some highway is closed, but COME ON. They don't have anything new to say! Not that that ever stops local news people.

Edit: AND I have cramps. BLARGH.
