Sometimes when I'm sitting in class... You know, I'm not thinking about class, 'cause that would never happen. I think about kissing you. And it's like everything stops. It's like, it's like freeze frame. Willow kissage.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

In the course of editing, I ran across this author name (last name): Blobstein.

Which, naturally, led us into a whole Bob Loblaw/Arrested Development riff.

I think it was trying to bite me but I'm not sure - if it was, it never managed to penetrate my jeans. Anyway, it just kept walking behind me, yapping and nipping at my ankles... so damn cute.

While passing out front-porch light bulbs in the more crime-ridden areas of my 'hood, we happened upon one house with a big BEWARE OF DOG sign. These were common, and usually accompanied by a Pit Bull or Rottie.

As we walked towards the house, the owner was outside, and waved for us to come up the driveway. I did so with some trepidation, and then the dog came charging down the driveway, barking furiously at us.

A Pomeranian named "Speedy."

Cutest thing EVAR. "I'm fierce! I am! Damn it! Cower before me!" As soon as I leaned down to give it my hand to sniff, it stopped barking, dropped to the ground, and rolled onto its back in the patented rub-my-belly move.

Fierce. Uh huh.

I thought of him, but I thought it was a stretch to label what he does comedy. Absurd? Yes. Funny? Occasionally but more often bleak as hell.

Yeah, having gone to a grueling performance of Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf last fall Albee wouldn't be the first name I'd think of in the context of comedy.

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

Ooh, I should have tried that! I could have gotten in some quality puppy-belly-rubbing time....

Blobstein

This sounds like something that should be "Coming soon, on Sci-Fi"

a grueling performance of Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf

Grueling as in badly done, or as in emotionally draining?

I wouldn't be surprised if it was going at you because you smell like cats.

The latter. I think it was well-performed and faithful to the text, it was just painful to watch.

For some reason, this reminds me of Tom Servo's script for a horror movie, Earth vs. Soup.

Just one cat. And a German Shepherd.
