No food bowls for the kitties?

It is one degree out. I slipped and fell on the steps (which are icy because I failed to clean them properly to begin with) while taking the dog out. I worked until eleven last night and I have a full day's work before I have to go to work. Again, this is all my fault because I didn't get it done during my huge winter break. I suck.

Flat has new iron, ironing board, hoover, cutlery, pots, pans, bowls, cups, plates, fridge, freezer, oven, sofas, lights, tables, chairs and bed covers & sheets. Is pretty standard for city letting in UK.

ETA: Cat stuff! Good point. Must remember that.

I was just coming to post the Obama news! (And I've had the same gut reaction.)

Meanwhile, the AKC has listed the most registered dog breeds for 2006:

1. Labrador Retriever
2. Yorkshire Terrier
3. German Shepherd Dog
4. Golden Retriever
5. Beagle
6. Dachshund
7. Boxer
8. Poodle
9. Shih Tzu
10. Miniature Schnauzer

Despite having grown up in Wisconsin, I am now paranoid about ice. Two of the last four time I've fallen on ice, I've managed to break bones.

More Obama news:

New Orleans' football season is all but over.

That's the message Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., has for Saints fans when their team comes to Chicago for Sunday's NFC championship game.

"The Bears are going to the Super Bowl," a gleeful Obama told reporters Monday outside a church in suburban Chicago. "I am happy for New Orleans. I think it's a wonderful story for their city, but this fairy tale ends when they come to Chicago."

Oh, Barack Obama, why did you have to do that?

I fall a lot. But I never injure myself seriously. For which I'm grateful, but I have no desire to try to continue my streak.

I've always felt he was almost a man without a good time to run. 2008 does seem too soon, but I really can't entertain the idea of a non-Dem winning in 2008. If a Dem does win, and it's not Obama, we're likely looking at 2016, and by then, the country might be hankering for a Repub.

And? I want some hope. I just want some hope. It can get dashed. Whatever. I understand that's a risk with (as connie so aptly puts it) that bitch, hope. But I want some. I'm tired of having none.

I don't want Hilary to run. I know she probably will, and I even like her, but I can't bear even the thought of what the public discourse will be, for the time she's in office. The hate from the opposition will be roughly equal to all the Bush hate + all the Bill Clinton hate, and a good dose of misogyny, besides. I don't want it.

I want some hope.

Wow, that's so interesting. So different! Even when I moved into a furnished place here (in the US), I had my own sheets and iron.
