I don't care if it is an orgy of death, there's still such a thing as a napkin.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

How to give your cat a pill

No, it's not one of those jokes. I did not know this:

Gently sneak your middle or ring finger between her front teeth, and push down the bottom jar. The cat has no power in it when her head is bent backwards, so she won’t bite back.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I got a care package from my grandmother today, containing 10 dish towels and 2 sets of potholders. The note said "This is what your Mom said you needed!" and so now I have to call my mom and find out exactly what she said to make my grandmother think I needed 10 dish towels.

That's hilarious. When I moved in my first apartment, my grandmother sent me a ton of hand towels and a huge stock pot and some other stuff I forget what. Her rationale was that she didn't need all that stuff anymore, being alone. Um... did she think I was moving into my apartment with a husband and three kids?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

brenda, where did you find that story? I love stories like that.

Also, Theo, those leg spring things are bananas!

Speaking of bananas, I was going to make banana bread today (assuming the bananas in my fridge aren't bad yet), but I apparently have no loaf pan! WTF? I know I used to. So I was thinking about going into the city and going to Williams-Sonoma, because it's near Banana Republic (bananas everywhere!), where I need to return some pants, and H&M, which I've been meaning to swing by, but then I realized that that's where the St. Pat's parade is, I'm pretty sure, so that's not going to work today. Hmph. Also could that sentence be any longer? I think no.

So, maybe Target here in Queens for a loaf pan.

Good plan!

I am also making banana bread today. I'm gonna make one big loaf and four little loaves. Mmmmm...banana bread.

It's also possible I'll make muffins instead, since I do have a muffin tin right here. We'll see how it goes.

Muffins would also be yummy.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Tonight we're going to the Seegar family concert which should be cool. Otherwise, grocery shopping and possibly hitting my local comic book shop are the major parts of the day.

What is even happening?

That's so cute.
I guess they'll come in handy when the baby's born.
Anything absorbent will.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I expect spare dishclothes will make excellent burp shields.

Sims 2 has all sorts of cute behaviors... and one of them is, if a high-active Sim tosses the baby in the air while Playing with him, there's a chance the baby vomits on him!
