Heh. "Little Timmy is the perfect size for that empty corner in the living room."

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I noticed that watching that DVI episode as well. It really was all about the outcome and not at all about his drinking. I don't think that has ever been addressed again in the episodes I have seen. Though I came in really late to the show so all of the repeats are new to me and I don't always know exactly where I am in the show's timeline.

I, um, actually think those are kind of nifty.

I like skeletons. Perhaps it's something to do with being an anthropologist, so much of what we learn comes from them. I think the embellished ones are beautiful.

Yay for Tick DVDs! The skeleton sculptures are kind of riveting.
I can't text fast enough to make it worth my while, and no one who would text me can either, so it works out nicely.
Shrimp, roasted potatoes, and asparagus for dinner. Yum. Now I go back to organizing/cleaning my room. I made so much progress yesterday. My clothes closets look amazing. This morning, everything was clean, hung up and not wrinkled - it took me a long time to pick out an outifit because of all the choices. So sad.

Ha! I've found Rosie's super-seekrit hiding place! She's gotten into the habit of hiding in the mornings until I leave for the day, which really sucks for her on days like today when I don't leave. Yesterday she hid until 4:30 or so. Tonight she justcame out because I turned over the furniture she was hiding in. The swivel rocker that I thought had a solid bottom has a hole in it that is 7-8" in diameter.

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

Hmm... I think it'd be kinda' cool - if it was some random cat I didn't know. But I think I'd be kinda' creeped out if it was my cat.
Or maybe I just don't want to think about his mortality. Maybe I'd feel differently once he was, um... departed.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
Ikea
we were there
They were out of what we went for. But we got something to organize the closet/clothes better. We spent money. My DS and BIL , who came mostly just to wander - spent about 30 more dollars than we did.
We have now spent 2 hours working in the bedroom.
I am beat.

Heh. I drove across country with a cat. It took about five days. We'd sneak her into hotel rooms at night. One morning we couldn't find her, which was weird as we knew she hadn't left the hotel room. Turned out she'd crawled through a hole in the bottom of the box-spring mattress.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
SailAweigh, I'm an anthropologist too! Or used to be. Is there a new secret handshake now?

I lost Gilda in the box-spring within hours of bringing them home. Then I lost both of them under the dresser. I think Rosie is getting to big to fit under the dresser, now.
Hotel rooms often have those beds that seem solid to the floor all the way around except for the couple of feet closest to the headboard. Petri was good at finding those, but shaking the treat container always brought him out.
