Yes, there is. There's a hurry, Xander. I'm dying...I may have as few as fifty years left.

Yay, Sims2! (I built our house design in Sims, to work out the kinks. It's not weird! It's what Will Wright originally thought his game was for! And it works great! Although right now my Sims family has two teenagers, one natural birth and one adopted, to see how the house works for lifecycle stages. Next we'll see what happens when the Sims parents enter their elderly lifestyles. Oh, and bonus, since getting Sims2 Seasons, my Sims family has grown all their food and stopped going to the grocery store.)

you know that sort of stupid levi's commercial where the guy pulls up his pants and the telephone booth with a pretty girl and buildings and whatnot come crashing into his apartment? well, I'm watching Logo, and they have the same commercial, but with a cute guy in the telephone booth.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I was in Maine (Kennebunkport) a couple of weekends ago!

Who are your Joneses?

Dammit. I have no Joneses. I'm jonesing for Joneses!

The Original Joneses to keep up with were probably the Gilded Age parents of Edith Wharton.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

So, I bought a watch today that is completely unlike any watch I've ever had before. I can't find it online -- I think she said they had just gotten it in that day. It's bronze-colored, metal band, crystals (but they're bronze-ish, too), and I can't decide if it's too flashy or something. Could I wear it tomorrow and still return it if need be?

Edit: No, no I can't. I think it will be OK. If not, I am rich enough to buy another watch!

Ann, that's a ferret.

Hi, Callaluna!

In other news, must request kitty~ma again. Teddy's kidney values are getting worse (though his red blood cell count is up), and he's in the hospital for a few days going through another round of IV fluids. (I'll be able to get him out for a while tomorrow afternoon, but only so he can go to an appointment at the holistic vet for acupuncture.)

If the IV fluids stabilize things, we get to make more decisions. Most of which we're reluctant to try because they involve lengthy or multiple trips to the University of Pennsylvania, general anesthesia on a kitty whose condition makes general anesthesia inadvisable, or all of the above.

Poor Teddy. May it all turn out okay with minimally invasive procedures.
