I used to have a huge orange cat. [link] Rosie and Gilda are more moderately sized.
Would some time next weekend be good for a Chicagoista naan-quest Indian night?
Wash: Well, I wash my hands of it. It's a hopeless case. I'll read a nice poem at the funeral. Something with imagery. Zoe: You could lock the door and keep the power-hungry maniac at bay. Wash: Oh, no, I'm starting to like this poetry idea now. Here lies my beloved Zoe, my autumn flower, somewhat less attractive now she's all corpsified and gross...

You know what's funny? Based on local news, B'more is totally claiming Pelosi. And she's all um, yeah, learned the brutal ropes at my father's knee but CALIFORNIA. SAN FRANCISCO, people!
We're co-opting her totally and it's funny.

so, I meant to say earlier, but ..
I have the same pair of boots in three colors: black, burgandy, and brown.
Today I get to work with a burgandy left and a brown right. UGH.

People probably thought you were very fashion forward.
I can show a pictur eof my mother's cat, but without anything in the picture to compare him to, you can really tell how ginormous he is. [link] He's cute, but he isn't orange.

So, Allyson, have they mentioned book tours or anything? I can see somebody in, oh, say, Letterman's office seeing that listing and going, "That's wacky, let's get her on!"

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.
I went to an all-girl catholic highschool. We had blackwatch plaid skirts and could wear navy, black and dark green knee socks as part of the ensemble. I was sharing a bedroom with my 3 younger sisters when I was a freshman and had to get up about an hour before they did, cause I had the longer walk to school. Getting my socks mixed up as I was dressing in the dark was so common, I hardly noticed after awhile.

Allyson, as soon as you can, you MUST introduce your nephew to the Flanimals. I just had a hilarious conversation with mine about them. I swear, he's memorized 2 books and can give it all to you in detail. I should be offended, but I'm a Squat.
