grape nuts: I was scared by a puppy this morning. I didn't know she was in the house and I was typing on the puter when this fluffy white shape trundled into my field of view. Pua (our resident dog) was quite shocked as well and seemed about to attack and drive off the intruder when she realized it was a puppy and softened up. Still we had already told the roomie that we can't have another dog (Pua has a history of reacting with fear and anger to other dogs) so I'm a bit perturbed he brought her home anyway. Especially since this really weakens the argument I was poised to have with both em boyos about why we should take in a little black and white kitten who is looking for a home. harrumph.

Spike's Bitches 37: You take the killing for granted.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
I've just poured the boiling water down the drain. You know the last thing my apartment needs is additional humidity. (And I think I'm going to have to repeat the process because the water really didn't go right down.)
Storm passed over, now it's back to being really sunny and hot.
"Come Monday, no more Indiana University searches will be powered by computer-driven Google. Only by people-powered ChaCha.
So, I went to check out ChaCha, because I hadn't for a while. Turns out, not only does it sound like IU is requiring their librarians to volunteer for ChaCha, but the search engine also sucks. It either sucks because it is so dumb that it thinks car loans and house loans have anything to do with interlibrary loan (one of my standard test searches), or (more likely) it sucks because it interweaves undifferentiated advertising. Grrrrr.
There's a product called a Zip-It. I get them at Lowes or Home Depot, can't remember which carries it. It's basically a long thin strip of plastic with sawteeth on both edges. You stick it down the clogged or slow drain as far as it will go, and pull it back out. It brings out the most disgusting stuff. I've used them to unclog a couple drains that were too clogged for the baking-soda-and-vinegar to get through.
edited for correct name of product. As seen on TV!
t screws Spike silly
"Oh no, not again."
Unclogging drains makes Spike horny?
Huh, I thought Spike was already silly.

LINOLEUM makes Spike horny
Spoke with my dad today, who unfortunately was in a lot of pain. I only just started looking up airfare. I hate this part maybe even more than packing. I'm eating cake, watching the 4400, during commercial breaks catching Eureka online (how cool is that? I didn't know skiffy did stuff online), and hoping to find a repeat of Psych since I missed it.
I'm also pleasantly mellow on wine. Mmmm. I shouldn't look at linoleum though. IJS.
