I am going to be denied free kolaches, I guess. Or they're secretly running in packs and coordinating their absences so I'm never left alone with the kolaches. Now I have to go out and buy my own food.

Magic eraser is truly magic. All those scuff marks on the paint that no liquid product could remove? Gone, all gone. Kitchen sinks, shower curtains, tubs-- magic!

It tried valiantly on the stovetop grease, but all it did was move the grease around. I could tell it was trying, though.

Blech. I went to open the blinds (I'm working at home today) and there was ginormous cricket hanging out on the window. (I think it was a cricket. Grasshoppers are brown, no?) I do not like creepy crawly things (or, you know, hopping noisy things) in my house.

I killed it with a copy of Forensics for Dummies.

Thanks, Dana. (And others who sent invites.) I'm on now.

Frustratingly, they don't allow me to use just my standard online name, cause it's only 5 letters long.

My standard username (firstmiddle) was taken. Humph. So I signed up under my LJ name, which turns out to be unique.

cheese pizza and super yummy salad from Patsy's.

work is still here. hrm.

Yeah, I ended up using my LJ name too. I suspect I'll shift my fannish email to Gmail eventually, so long as I can download it to my computer. I like having my mail somewhere concrete, in case the company goes out of business (perish the thought).

Work does that.

I just remembered, a helpful 18 hours later, I left the trash inside by the front door at my friend's house last night. Here's to hoping her cats leave it alone until I get over there saturday. They seem like fairly well behaved animals....

Uhg.

If it helps, my cat would absolutely leave it alone. He doesn't mess with stuff like that.

You just never know with them. Mister Kitty, in the past couple of years, has developed a string-eating complex. And he tries to get the string from hems of hanging clothes, towels, etc. It's very frustrating (not to mention potentially dangerous and destructive) and he'd fit the general description of well behaved.

Actually, I think MK's problem is he's a little bored* (or he's just way needy,) since Devi doesn't really interact with him. A friendly cat might cure that, but I really can't do that right now.

eta: * to which I think, he's a cat, damnit. He wants to sleep 20 hours a day, experience feline hallucinations for 2, eat for another 2 and somehow cram in 15 minutes of running from the hallucinations. Bored?!

Sara, Oz is a string eater and nothing keeps him from it. Sylvester definately plays with him. Then again, Oz just randomly pees on the floor every couple of months or so, so maybe he is not the best judge for normal behavior.
