There's more than one way to skin a cat. And I happen to know that's factually true.

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

ita, did he like the monkey goods?

He sure did, but I told him to tell his roommate that he found them in the street and it has nothing to do with me, in case she has a fit. Uh, not that he's losing sleep over either of us--he'd pick monkey goods over most people.

And tell me, how were the cupcakes? I tried a red velvet and enjoyed it. But it's a new-to-me cupcake place.

They're good! I stole one and will be having it for dinner tonight. Night before he was feted with cupcakes from Sprinkles, and he (don't tell the Sprinkle-giver) liked yours better.

So Dots beats Sprinkles... that's good to know! though sprinkles has a better name. Dots is cute inside though. Which one did you steal?

Why would roommate have a fit over monkey goods? Does she not approve of the monkey? Plus they are so practical - monkey potholder!

Jon, the commercials are cool. I like the first one very much.

Betsy, happy birthday!

I stole a chocolate one. I'm very excited.

Roommate likes things a certain way. Certain way does not includes monkeys.

People can be weird.

Not that I have monkeys in my kitchen. But I do have Hello Kitty.

Target has loads of monkey goods right now. Lots in the dollar aisle, too.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Thanks all. Filming those ads, and the subsequent dinner with Buffistas, made it the best birthday ever.

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

Something else on eBay that one could purchase for Hec's birthday....

Believe it or not, ita, we have had a monkey scrubbing pad in the kitchen in heavy use for about a month now.

Incidentally, tommyrot, my Vi from The Incredibles is still Mint In Box.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Jon, the commercials are cool. I like the first one very much.

The second one cracks me up, simply because you're playing the theremin WITH THE SLIDER! And because you fall back on the couch. I'm a sucker for physical comedy done well.

In the end, I think the decision against the silver pleather was a wise decision, but it still made me a little sad to not see it.
