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

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
That's almost as good as "Baby Got Back" in Latin.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Just talked to my mother. Their big concern has been the fact that there's a rule in the city that says if 50% or more of the house is damaged, the whole house has to be brought up to current code standards. My parents were looking at the possibility of having to raze the lower story, even the parts that survived the storm okay, like the exterior bricks, and rebuild it completely.
My dad went to the building permits office today, and it sounds like they're fine, due to the way the percentages are calculated. The foundation alone is 17%, and the entire upper story is fine, and the roof is fine, so they should be good, which is a big weight off their shoulders.
The other cool thing happening is that Glamour Magazine is having some sort of ceremony honoring women working for humanitarian causes, and they're flying my mother and 12 girls to New York, where the kids will be part of a backup choir for Mary J. Blige.

Glad that your parents don't have to raze the house!
And congratulations on your mother being honored.

Whoops, clarification. My mother is not actually being honored. Catherine Zeta Jones is being honored. My mother is getting a free trip and a donation for the chorus.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
I bet the kids are wicked excited, and I hope your mom is, too! How old are the kids?
