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

the Unconversation
I love it!
Quiz time: in the following conversation, what was the result?
Steph's Mom: "Sammy?"
Steph: "Sure!"
Steph's Mom: "Nuked?"
Steph: "Nah."
Decipher that unconversation....

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
My guess:
Sandwich?
Hot?
Nope.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Steph's Mom: "Would you like a sandwich?"
Steph: "Yes, please."
Steph's Mom: "Do you want me to heat it in the microwave?"
Steph: "No, thank you."

Damn, I guess that one was too easy. Yes, the result was a non-hot sandwich.

brillig
Hubby and I "woof" at each other a lot. We often channel wolves a bit more noticeably than society likes.
He'll go into the house looking for a tool. I'm outside.
Him: Woof? (on a rising note)
Me: In the kitchen.
Him: Woof. (up-and-down sound of puzzlement)
Me: On the table. Look next to the phone.
Him: Woof!
Me: You're welcome.
And the rest of the people in the front yard are staring at me. Someone once tried to woof along with us, and we both gave him the kinds of stares I imagine Parisians give Americans trying to speak French.
Friend 1: He woofed at her!
Friend 2: They do that.
Friend 1: What does it mean?
Friend 2: I don't know. I've counted fourteen different kinds of Woof.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Me: Honey, where's the thing? t makes random hand motion
MM: On the table.
Me: Thanks.

Tomorrow is not only Cinco de Mayo, it is 05/05/05. How cool is that? I'm going out for margaritas to celebrate.

So, pros and cons question: new car. Well, new to us car.
Which is less sane: attempting to survive in a '98 Civic HB, 130k miles, no A/C, but paid for, with a new baby, or selling the Civic, adding to our debt, and driving something with four doors and A/C for a change.
I'm really, really torn. The Civic is decidedly not the best car for putting a carseat into, and the rear seat gets far too warm for comfort, even with the windows down, which I realize is only going to get worse as it gets warmer out.
But... paid for. Owned. By us. Not a bill, except when things need tuning.

If I only had a brain...
My suggestion would be to stick to the Civic until you can't stand it any more. Which may be July, but at least that's two more months you can save.
