Holy hell. My trip came within minutes of getting cancelled because of a boarding fuckup. Not mine, they gave me bad and wrong info. So I stood there with a distressed cat and made them call around to find a spot. Which we did. But poor Mister Kitty had to drive around for an hour tonight. He does not like. But no puke or pee or poop. So.

I'm crashing now. Going to eat my burger, watch some tv, toss some stuff into a bag and hope like hell I can get to the train station tomorrow.

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

My poor sister. She tried to make white chocolate ganache and reports a miserable visual failure, as yet untasted. Has anyone here ever done that? Is the flaw in the concept of white chocolate ganache, or the execution?

That's last minute and lucky that it worked out, sara.

It's one of the reasons I can't do last minute jaunts anymore. Not that I was good about doing them before, but still.

And now I discover all my travel sizes are dried up or ooky. Ah well, will cope. It's not like I'm going to Siberia.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

but those kittens are just ugly.

That's because they're not really kittens.

WOOHOO! Even though people haven't left me alone all fucking day, I still did all my paperwork, and will get to leave in 4 minutes/on time, and then I am on vacation, and it's going to be TOTALLY AWESOME. (and probably include some cheek pinching.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Man, I'm really supposed to be cleaning my apartment right now, but eh. I'm thinking I go to bed at a reasonable hour and get up ditto, and that will be fine.

Hrm.

Jesse, should I call you when I get up? At six aye em? Provided I don't fuck that up?

Six is NOT REASONABLE.

Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs

But in this one hutch, the babies were flopped in an actual pile, all half atop each other. There were at least 3, possibly four of them. We were all dying of the cute already, when the little one toward the back of the flop pile climbed exactly on top of his siblings and fell right back to sleep.

sigh

I miss having bunnies.

Six is NOT REASONABLE.

I entirely agree. But Some People (the crazy ones) don't. I have to pull it to avoid freak out city. It allows me time for my leisurely 1.5 hour paper and shower and dress routine & plenty of time to deal with the street closings trying to get to Penn Station.

So, Ugly Betty just made me cranky with the New York geography. There's no view of the city from Jackson Heights! She totally lives in the LIC!!
