Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

You should totally take up krav, though.

Our cats have always been outdoor, but they still need a litter box.

Or maybe they've just hoodwinked us into thinking so. Hmmm.

What is even happening?

Good lord, I remember all of the lyrics to that. Why????!?

I think I might have been too old. Will Smith was on my radar from his musical career, and acting career, because he's such a hottie, but I don't think I watched the show more than a handful of times.

Yes, I was too old. Imdb confirms the show aired from '90-'96. I was 23-29. In '94 I got married. In '96 I had my first baby. Chris is dancing to the Fresh Prince theme, now. Hee.

I pulled up to the house about 7 or 8...

I don't know, but is that a problem?

Yes. The genius of sitcom TV theme songs is that they have these evilly catchy lyrics, and you humiliate yourself singing them, because they are so inane.

I mean, the bags and shoes alone!

suh-nerk!

You should totally take up krav, though.

Oh, no no no. No no no. I wouldn't hit back kids who hit me, when I was little. I wouldn't hit them back when my mother (who'd taught me not to hit) begged me to do. All my krav belong to you. I'm thinking Yoga might be more my style, or possible Tai Chi.

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

We always had 3-12 outdoor cats on the farm. We had to be sure to cover up the grist bin and tightly close the burlaps bags of bran to prevent the cats from using those.

In retrospect, having to occasionally remove cat shit from cow feed sounds pretty gross.

Cindy, you don't want a cat.

I woke to 4 fake mice denting my skin this morning. And a cat sleeping on my head. And [link] makes me laugh.

I don't want a cat. I've had two. I loved them. They died. But I feel like a mean mommy for not having a pet. I could get a fishy or something, but pets you can pet are better.

Cindy, you've evidently never had the L&O Chung Chung! stuck in your brain. You really get weird looks with that one.

As for Tai Chi, you do understand it's a martial art, right, with the whole hurting people thing?

move out and draw fire

Or in a few months, they'll be joined together in a nice lap robe.

That's fine too, as long as they're out of my back yard so I can use it.

We have the occasional coyote, and I've seen a fox. Also, even though we're in a residential neighborhood, we're not at all far from the highway.

Better and better.

I wasn't allowed to watch TV as a child, but I still know all the theme songs. They are like a virus. And yeah, they are linked with other memories.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

We had an outdoor-at-night cat when I was a kid. This was mostly in Michigan, although Skippy (I was 3 when we named him) lived his last few of years in NC. He made it to 15 years, though, which isn't bad.

Fast forward to my parents getting a cat after retirement. The same man who said, "Cats have fur--put 'im out!" in a Michigan January was making sure his precious Kimsy was inside every balmy NC night.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

intersting call I just got. I had ordered some sunglasses from a store in the mall since they did not have them in stock. They even matched an online sale price I had found. Well, as it turns out the frames have been discontinued. I asked to have my credit card refunded. They countered with offering me store credit for $50 more than my original purchase. ok, I'll take free money, sure.
