Ready for two of 'em yet? I found that a big plus was that they distracted each other and made it easier to get things done. On the other hand, they learn to work as a pack for trouble making.

"Run! Run for your lives! I can't hold it in much longer!"

I swear, I was *just* saying that. DH likes to yell, "She's going to BLOW!"

So your advice is "divide and conquer"? Or something like that.

Nah, the good comes with the bad. The playing together is great, but sometimes they egg each other on into more trouble making than would happen individually. I get especially worried when they go off someplace and get really quiet.

Whoo.

Just glancing at that photo, I thought you had a small monkey on your shoulder.

Dammit! I just got myself a fudgsicle, popped it in my mouth... and it's an orange popsicle! Which is still tasty, but... can I still have a fudgsicle afterward, or will that just be needless gluttony?

Whoo.

Whoa. Though I'm almost tempted to try to make one of those purses.

Actually, I've got a cousin who used to make jewelry out of bottlecaps. I think I've still got a pair of Coca-Cola earrings somewhere. (They're clip-ons, since she made them for me before I got my ears pierced. She made regular ones, too, but they're so heavy that I really can't see wearing them for long.)

I've got a bunch of knitting magazines from the sixties somewhere around here. I saved them from being thrown away when my parents were cleaning out the garage once. Apparently, everyone in the sixties wore cable sweaters while sipping drinks on their yachts.

Cashmere, I think I agree with ita on your expression in that pic. Pretty kitchen, btw.

This is why I don't have two dogs or two cats. One dog and one cat is fine, however, because they don't really egg each other on into anything. They mostly just bitch at each other.

Hopefully, I will get some good hours in the first two weeks of February.

Good hours ~ma, sj.

I had a beer can/pop can hat when i was a teenager. I can't even remember what brand.

ION, Here's a new photo of Eliza Dushku bound to be photoshopped, soon:

You definitely look pregnant, Cash, but gorgeous. Hard to imagine you not looking gorgeous though.

Have the fudgsicle, Emily.

Sorry about the work situation, sj. It sounds awful either way.

I just got to test my brakes on the way to TJ's to pick up coffee. Woman stopped at her stop sign and then just happily motored through. Right in front of me. Um, the street I was on doesn't have a stop sign and actually there is a sign on hers telling her that specifically. Whatever. I stopped in time and only tumbled everything to the front of the car in the way of damages. Sigh...

I wish I could tranq dart bad drivers and staple a handy list of "how to do a four-way stop" and "what to do if it is *not* a four-way stop" flyers to people's foreheads. Or a tazer. A tazer would work. Unless it is spelled taser. And then that would work instead.
