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

I need to vacuum, but cat sleeping with her tongue stuck out is too cute to disturb. I am such a sucker.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

My cat doesn't need a vacumn to wake her up and get her interested in me cleaning. I was just wiping down all the glass surfaces in the apartment, starting with the TV screen, and she had to get down off of her high perch on the cat condo and supervise. I think she was hoping I'd open up the DVD tray so she could have fun playing with it as it slid open and closed, but no such luck.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Where is my motivation?

Probably buried in here amongst the detritus of my life, that I need motivation to clean up and toss out... Damn the irony.

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

I am packing up my recent ebay sales. What I thought might bring in $50, netted me $83. motivating?

We're up in Tahoe. It's a winter wonderland.

I'm intrigued by the recurring Alpine motif and am trying to talk people into going to the Swiss Chalet for fondue.

Emmett and I have been building horrific Calvin & Hobbes inspired snowman heads with icicle tusks.

JZ is contendedly flipping through Life Magazine's yearbook for '51, and her brother Chris is upstairs napping (hence I have access to his laptop).

We're going sledding in an hour.

Congratulations shrift!

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?

That sounds lovely, Hec!

I, however, am at work. Again. Or still. Or something. Since Jan. 16, I have only had 1 day off, and yes, that includes weekends. I've been working 60-70 hour weeks until this week and I'll hit close to 90 hours by the time I leave tonight.

We have a HUGE report due tomorrow and we are so close to being done now, I actually see light at the end of the tunnel. I am exhausted, though. I seriously need a day to lay around the house and do absolutely nothing.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

Ow. I just did a bunch of long-overdue weeding and my back hurts. Ouch.

Where's my cabana boy to bring me frilly drinks and give me a massage?

msbelle, unfortuantely, money does not motivate me. Weird, I know.

Yay for horrific C&H snowman heads, and for having someone to make them with!

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

I feel ya, Suela. I went roller skating last night, for my friend Nate's bday. I fell down only three times, but my ass and back kinda hurt today.

Not BAD, but...a backrub, half a Vicodin and some iced Earl Grey via Cabana Boi wouldn't come amiss.

Trust my rage

via Cabana Boi wouldn't come amiss.

This read as very funny to me since boi means cow in Portuguese (which I spoke for the 18 months we lived in Brazil). Carne do Boi is a very popular steak restaurant.
