If you want me to leave, you can put your hands on my hot, tight little body and make me.

Hee. Funny cats. I need to bathe one shortly....sigh.

My new trick, instead of finding a water fountain post-security, is to go to a coffee place or whatever and ask them to fill it, please. Much less messy. So far, it's bemused every cashier and they go right ahead and do it.

Oooh, I forgot, I got another awesome present from the parents: a handpieced quilt (and shams.) It's a blue sunburst-y pattern and I love it. Will get pix eventually. Mom wasn't sure if I would, so waited to show it to me until after xmas with "I wanted to see your reaction. I wouldn't want you to take it out of obligation!" Hee. Anyway, I need to get a hanger for it. I'd probably only use it on the bed in warmer weather than now, if at all (cats, hrm,) and I'd like to display it in the meantime. Gotta measure it this weekend and see if it could hang in the LR.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Part of the reason I ended up at the DMV late on a Friday afternoon was because we've been putting off getting our Wisconsin drivers' licenses and I finally decided to bite the bullet and get it done, since it should have been done a month ago.

It went pretty well except for the fact that my sister called my mobile while I was in line and told me one of my favorite uncles might have committed suicide today. My dad's wrecked (it was the brother he was closest to). Uncle Wes was in his 70's and had been diagnosed with Alzheimer's last year. Still don't know for sure if he shot himself. I'm waiting for word from my cousin who is on his way over there.

Way to go out with a bang, 2007. Fuck you very much.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Any DCistas around? I have to book a flight for one of my bosses to a conference in Falls Church, VA; the conference website says it's pretty much equidistant from Dulles or Joey Ramone Memorial. The distance may be the same, but I thought I should check whether one airport is markedly nicer (or wretcheder) than the other, or whether one will be an easier drive to Falls Church. Recs?

I'll just busy myself with Grace and Noah pictures while I'm waiting.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh god, Cashmere, that's horrible. I'm so sorry.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Ah, fuck, Cashmere. I'm sorry.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Oh Jesus, Cashmere! What horrible news - I'm so sorry.

I'm so sorry, Cashmere.

It looks like every single flight, from every airline, is delayed to SFO. I think I'm in for a long night.
