If you take sexual advantage of her, you're going to burn in a very special level of hell. A level they reserve for child molesters and people who talk at the theater.

You can't leave me to my own devices; my devices are Nap and Eat. -Zenkitty

I can't even get to where the furnace is, so I wouldn't be able to call the gas company anyway (or well, I wouldn't be able to let them in....)

Hmm... Yeah, that does sound like more of a landlord problem.

So, if I print out the cashed check from my bank that I sent to the DMV, that should be ammo in case I get pulled over for expired tags, right?

Yes. It always helps to carry any and every little scrap of paper that shows that you have met your end of the obligation to the state. Even if it doesn't keep you from getting a ticket, it will definitely help when contesting the ticket later.

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?

Your cat is very pretty, ChiKat!

Isn't he, though??

Also, stairway is now clear. Will vacuum momentarily.

Yay!!! Go you with the cleaning!

He is very pretty. However, I don't think he's posting. I think he's thinking I can keel you with my brain. That's a very smug looking cat.

I'm also impressed you got a picture. So many of the pictures of my family's black cats turn out to be pictures of a cat-shaped hole with eyes.

Sophia, don't forget the handy trick of tossing everything that doesn't belong where it currently is into the closet/bedroom and closing the door, thus allowing you space to scrub/dust/sweep/vacumn. Of course, then you're left with a closet in the condition mine was in until recently, when I took everything out of there and dumped it into the dining room, and then went through it all one item at a time (I learned some lessons from Clean Sweep!). Two carloads of donatbles later, I have a very clean apartment and closets.

This is my cat's pictures! I've been meaning to get a photo of her revving up for her evening frolics (she lies on her back, her back paws scratching higher up on the condo post than her front ones, almost in a shoulder stand position), but keep forgetting to bring the camera out to the living room.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Our firewall keeps deciding that the web site for the Interlibrary Loan group at the law school where Sparky1 works is evil, and should not be visited.

He has his moments, that's for sure.

It's really hard to get one where his eyes don't glow or he's just a big black blob. Here's my fav because his eyes aren't glowy:

Well, you expected a fluffy bunny? Of course they're evil. They're also gone for the day. What did you want to know?

'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"

I'm back from New Jersey, having survived the cleanout of my Mom's cellar with only a few scars to speak of. On my way back, I stopped off in Old Sturbridge Village for a pair of hours, and ended up talking up knitting with several of the interpreters. It was just the destressing I needed.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Allyson is me! I did this last Thursday and still haven't gotten my new registration and tags yet. Although I haven't been pulled over yet to test this theory.
