I didn't think it was in-jokey, I was wondering if the fact that main characters were into it redeemed how dorky most of the people there were.

Anyway, today I might be cranky. I woke up at ass o'clock for no apparent reason, and then my glasses broke! I'm going to take them back to the store and see what they can do, which is super-annoying. That was NOT on my agenda for the day. Actually, it might work better with my agenda for tomorrow. Hmm. Must check store hours.

One of the brighter sides of having our 16yo cat, Yum Yum euthanized (after a long, brave struggle with failing kidneys) yesterday: getting to clean up and rearrange my study, which pretty much has been her refuge for the past two years. Just couldn't bring myself to stress her more by upsetting her chosen environment....

Aw Theo, I'm sorry about Yum Yum.

And Kathy, my thoughts are with you and your mother.

The remaining felines are pitching in by being extra cuddly and/or annoying. My bereavement, such as it is, is dwarfed by the major sorrows of some of my friends at the moment, so I've got it in emotional perspective, anyway.

I'm sorry for your loss, Theodosia. Lucky Yum Yum that you didn't mess with her territory earlier. You are a considerate mommy.

So it is unlikely that Ernesto will visit my coast, and yet that is all the news. I guess it is better than the bitter political ads and debates. Considering the volume of ads the candidates here are showing for primary elections I clearly won't be able to watch tv live during October. Unless they spend all their money now, but unlikely.

Theo, I'm sorry about Yum Yum.

Bless your heart Theodosia. Yum Yum as lucky to have had you and you her.

Yesterday, while I was so worried about Bartleby, I gave serious thought to that moment...the one where I will have to let him go. Nearly did me in. I admire your grace and the care you obviously give your furry friends.

Aw, I'm sorry, Theo.

I currently don't want to do anything. I've spent today until now doing nothing. I need to eat something. Being really fussy about that. My apartment needs a bomb dropped on it, I just don't want to deal. Bleh. I guess I'll make something protein like and get out of the house.

so sorry for your loss, Theodosia.

I just spent a ridiculous amount of time waiting around at Michael's. Annoying.

Then I walked by the soon-to-be new supermarket in my neighborhood. First of all, I cannot believe how long it is taking to get that thing built and open! Second, I was hoping it would be a yuppie mart, but apparently it's going to be a latino market. Which is cool, too, but I can already get that stuff at my little market! Ah well.

Finally, wearing my old glasses is making me insane. I don't think my prescription changed that much, but I feel like I can barely see out of these! Also, I hate the way they look.

Why did I waste my good mood on the work week, I ask you.
