We haven't had any wacky cat videos in a while, right?
::stinkeye::
This cat watches boxing on tv, while standing on its hind paws and batting at the boxers.
Oh well, that's different.
I walk. I talk. I shop, I sneeze. I'm gonna be a fireman when the floods roll back. There's trees in the desert since you moved out. And I don't sleep on a bed of bones.

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.
Can I go home now?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Can I go home now?
Yes.
I'll create a distraction. When I give the signal, run!

Our wings are not tired.
Yes

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Hec, check your email.
So, I've been super-productive this morning despite approximately 3 hours' sleep and being 40 (well, actually, not for another two hours yet, but still). Can I go home now?
Itemized birthday well-wishers thank-yous to follow, after I get myself another cup of coffee and stop blubbering like an overtired overemotional fool about how wonderful all of you are.

Good. I'm sure that this forecasting system can figure out how to work properly without me. Isn't that what IT is for?

In non-cat news, we got a new-to-us car. A 1999 Nissan Sentra GXE, not very exciting but cheap enough to pay cash for. My wife is happy to have something small and fuel-efficient to drive, her last fillup recorded 34.5 mpg in around town driving. She also likes that it has all the power stuff including power steering which our Honda lacks (I love my little Honda's unassisted steering).
This replaced her minivan which is a nice and useful vehicle, but even before the latest surge in gas prices, she didn't want to drive it much because of cost and environmental impact. I really like not having to use my little 2 door hatch as a family transport which is what was happening.
We still haven't totally decided between keeping the minivan for occasional use or selling it. When it is useful, it is really useful.
It looks like this one, only silver and manual instead of automatic.
The headlights on ours were all hazy too, maybe it's a Sentra thing, but a little polish cleared them up.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I have a grey '99 Sentra, too! My car's name is Melky Car-brera and I loves it, I do. Great mileage, comfy to drive, and very reliable. It isn't very zippy, but I only notice that when pulling onto a freeway.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
Not cat videos, but hilarious in that watch from the hall kinda way.
Jezebel has the complete transcript of Dmitri's douchetastic voicemails to Elegant Olga. I'm shocked as to why Olga never called Dimitri back. I mean, he called her "elegant" several times! Any dude that calls me "elegant" is definitely the one.

My wife is really liking it so far. She wanted a Honda, but they are really expensive on the used market. I love that it has a timing chain instead of a belt. That saved us from having to immediately take to a mechanic to replace the timing belt, like we'd have to do to every Honda we considered.
