Hee!
Of course, Senor Sock's namesake was in love with Suzanne Summers. But Suzanne Summers might not be such a good cat name....
Giles: Stop that, you two. Riley: He started it... Xander: He called me a bad name! I think
it was bad; it might have been Latin.

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

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
Yeah I'm not sure my sister-in-law Suzanne would be happy if we had a cat named Suzanne either.

Oh no, Tom. So very sorry about Senor Sock. Was the name attributable to him being a "sock" cat (in the way there are "cow" and "tuxedo" cats)?

So do people call in to work for bereavement for deceased pets? A friend says I should do that. I just called in sick a week ago so I don't want to say I'm sick. I'm not sure if I want to go to work or not - maybe it will be a nice distraction, or maybe it'll just be too much for me. But if I do call in for some pet bereavement, it'd be nice to tell my bosses, "Hey, people do it all the time." (They're a little inexperienced with being bosses.)
Also, they gave me a little clay pad with his pawprints on it. I'm baking it right now (to make it solid).

This sounds kind of ridiculous, but I always rolled my eyes at my mother when, after some real or fictional trauma, she would tell me, "Don't ever die, OK??" and now I kind of get it. My cat had gotten several Stern Talks to that effect over the years. He has pretty much the same response I did.
You want dorky? Even when MK was at his sickest, I tried not to say the d-word EVER. I resorted to trailing of in a half-finished euphamisms. I stick to "you're gonna live forever, damnit" for pets and humans alike.
What's all this sand in my ears?
And when dad started talking inheritance the other night (him being, hey, it'd be easier to give it all away to the intended beforehand so no estate craziness) I cut him off and told him I'd kill him. Mature, no?
Speaking of which, I need to strangle my brother. Every.single.time. I ask if he's wants a ____ for the new nephew, his response is "Oh, we bought that today." !!!! I'm gonna break and get a giftcard. Sheesh. It may be weird sibling telepathy, but it is a pain in my ass.
Also? I talked poop with D, the elder nephew. Baby poop ("it's gooey"), dung beetles' collection of poop, dog poop. And vampire bats. This is so much a kid of my family and of my heart.

Some places allow you to take a "mental health" day.
xposty: oh yeah. When my Mom starts talking about what will happen after they're gone I stick my fingers in my ears and shout, "LA LA LA LA LA!"
