I have got nothing for cats.They are like the uber-capitialists of the pet world. They take and take and give nothing back.

I would trade the entire species for a single dog.

Good thing they are cute then, huh?

Yeah. He was even cute about it, not obnoxious. But still.

I'm watching some of the World Series of Pop Culture, and it's a good time. I totally rocked the Name That Rapper category, and am slightly embarassed that I remembered the Hildegard one of the Bosom Buddies guys' drag names, but not Buffy, the other name.

Sure, cats are cute. It is all part of their evil plan.

I totally rocked the Name That Rapper category...

Awesome. How do you tell one rapper from another? I have never been able to do so.

Much the same way you can tell any two people apart. Or, in this case, by the lyrics of their songs.

Jesse is mad at me.

I think it was the cat thing.

I'm not mad at you! I'm just saying.

10 hours of sleep. it was needed. the shoulder seems better so far. getting dressed seems like a monumental chore.

My BFF is losing her grandmother. The last couple of months have been frequent hospital admittances and a variety of different ailments, all related to just being old and ready to die. It is very hard on the family. BFF's mother is the oldest child and not coping well at all. I wish I could do something actually helpful, but having gone through it just over a year ago, I know people need to be given the space to mourn and grieve and come to whatever terms they can. The balance between getting to really say goodbye and spend time with a loved one, knowing they are dying, and the emotional toll of watching a loved one deteriorate over several months is a tricky one.

That is a tricky and hard thing to go through, msbelle. I'm sure your being there/available/supportive will help, even though it might not seem like enough.

I managed the getting dressed part. I'm still working on the getting up and getting moving part.
