Hm. Maybe I'll give the Trinity look a shot next year.

Food, sequester, angst?

Check, check, check! We put a towel in a box, gave it food and water, and shut it in the laundry room. We denied it contact with Bastet, although she may be what attracted it in the first place. Now we...? Take it to the SPCA? Wish I knew what time it opened -- Dad has to be on the way out of town at 8 tomorrow morning.

I'd put a call into the SPCA and a vet if the SPCA has a..um, negative response, either yours (if you've found one yet) or one the SPCA offers/recommends if they aren't that negative. Newkitty can handle a day or a few in the laundryroom. Now, I'm a sucker and this'd mean I have another cat. However, both the SPCA and a vet could find it a less-suckerish home if you can't.

I think that means you're married in Bahrain.

No doubt. I guess it'll be spending a couple days in the laundry room, since my father has to be at the hospital two hours away by 10 tomorrow and the SPCA seems to be open noon till 4. Hmm. What to use for a litterbox?

Should've already been in bed, of course. I'm going now.

omg, Shrift, your hair is short!

But still a hottie. Have fun storming DragonCon!

ita, I find that wearing orthotics and stretching my achilles every day as soon as I get out of bed definitely helps my plantar fasciitis. I should do more of that rolling thing: I used to have a golf ball that was good for that.

But I've stopped buying any shoes without good arch support, which is why even my flip-flops cost over $50 (Chacos).

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Imagining Rickman as stern daddy seems to have killed the thread.

And the phrase "Rickman as stern daddy" seems to have livened it right up again.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I have a question. I see references to Carlos Menica in the media as if there is some buzz going on and they advertise The Carlos Mencia Show incessantly on Comedy Central, but I do not know one person who watches it, including my all neicephews. What is his demographic?
