Possibly. I must admit that I'm not sure what a bellini is, but it was pretty warm here today, so if it's cool....

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

libkitty, I can't process seeing a bear in the not-quite (since you were driving) wild. They're deepest darkest forest or zoo to me.

I lived in Canada. Hell, I live in California. It shouldn't be that way.

Okay. Will prep to leave for shopping. Mimosa fixings for 10 chicks--three bottles of sparkling wine, you think?

A bear, libkitty? Does Stephen Colbert know about this!?

We need to hold a Chicago'istas Welcome Shrift type event.

That would be cool.

Okay, so the pizza place I ordered from called to tell me they were having problems with their ovens, and would I mind thin crust instead? I told 'em to send it along. As an apology for the delay, they also tossed in half a cake. I was all "Woo, SCORE!" until I accidentally dropped some sausage, and the roommate's cat pounced on it and made scary gremlin noises.

I may need backup.

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

I want to see a bear. And a moose. Not necessarily at the same time.

The Brangelina baby is supposedly named Shiloh Nouvel.

I can just imagine the reactions of his family to that name.

the roommate's cat pounced on it and made scary gremlin noises.

Don't feed it after midnight.

Within a few months here, I had seen one across the street from the 11-story building where I work, but it was pretty young and scared and injured. Poor thing. It climbed a tiny tree that looked like it wouldn't hold a monkey. They drove a pickup truck underneath it and darted it and it fell right into the truck. I think they fixed his paw and took him somewhere remote to release him. I tell myself this, anyway.

This guy was nothing like that. He was pretty darn big.

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

Totally.

My schedule is pretty open the next few weeks.

I saw a bear cub cross the road. While I was driving an old Ford Escort through Ontario. It was a hot summer day, and the car tended to overheat. It also was hard to start when it was overheating.

I decided just to keep on going, as I didn't think the car could protect me that well if I got between the cub and its mommy....

Okay--I have a bottle of Chandon Brut Classique and one of Piper Sonoma Brut. Not that I think there'll be any inveterate wine snobs there, but are either of those tacky or nasty?

Moose are scary. Well, not so much from a distance, but they get ornery and can stomp you. My cousin was stomped by a moose. Fortunately, she was on a huge pile of snow at the time, but it's no fun.

Black bears usually run the other way.

I saw a moose, also in Ontario. We were in a little boat and the moose was in the water near the shore. It just stood there. The thing was huge....

Sometimes moose will charge small boats that come by the shore. And one year my dad was fishing with some friends in Ontario when the guy steering the boat ran over a moose. (The moose was submerged at the moment, apparantly eating stuff growing on the bottom of the lake.) The moose's back did get cut up a little by the boat prop, but it was otherwise OK.
