Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Also, I wish our HR person had just told me I have to do everything to hire a new person myself, instead of fucking up the one posting she did. Oy.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Sophia, if you wait a little while, I am pretty sure a larger version of the video will come out and will be ripped by fandom ASAP. Meanwhile, there are rips of the tiny video here that you probably can enlarge: [link]

Thanks! I feel this is just another thing telling me I am too old to like this band. Like, I can't even see the video properly! Also, I succumbed to the need, and asked my friend in IT to help me (he couldn't), and he was very disparaging about Patrick... which is kinda funny, because he kinda looks like Patrick (except for the fact that he really looks more like Paul Giamatti)

Because books.

Not too old!

And, dude. Smack the Patrick hater.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Awww, Ruby has finally crept out to explore. I opened the slider to the balcony and she's now happily sitting on a chair, listening to the birds.

And she ate breakfast, finally. She hadn't had more than a teaspoon of food since I moved her in.

Brave Ruby!

How are you feeling in the new place, Allyson?

Punishingly Intricate

I don't know how he goes for near two hours of non-stop talking (and lots of movement) without so much as a drink of water.

I used to feel bad about drinking a lot of water when I perform (like it's a sign of me having had no voice training at all) but then I saw Dolly Parton and she drank lots of water on stage and she said she didn't feel bad about it because she'd seen Cher drink lots of water on stage. It's a proud tradition of flamboyant lady performers!

Well, I'm a little overwhelmed with all the unpacking that needs to be done. I'm loathe to do it since I really should paint the ceiling, first. One of the guys I work with has a sprayer I can borrow, so maybe next weekend.

Mostly I'd just like to get some plants and start my container garden on the balcony, because it'd at least be relaxing.

No, dude, it's just a tiny, tiny video which hasn't even premiered yet! Which is, no doubt, why it's so tiny.

Also, I succumbed to the need, and asked my friend in IT to help me (he couldn't), and he was very disparaging about Patrick...

Yes, well. My reaction to Patrick in this video is not rational. The video is hilarious and ridiculous, but Patrick totally owns it, and by that I mean he exploded my brain.

How so hot, tiny little man?

I vote balcony gardening. It's instant gratification, something pretty to look at that. Bonus, it isn't something that needs to be done, so it is something you are totally indulging just for you. And after a move, you could use that.

I can't even imagine how long Dev would sulk if I move. (Most) cats hate change, but she's a champion of hate. She's still not pleased with Mister Kitty.
