Have any of you seen Tom Wise's blog post about White Privilege? It's kinda brilliant.
I saw it on javachik's blog earlier tonight. It's absolutely stunning.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
Thank you Kat and Brenda. I am just learning how to say no at this late age!
ETA: Also, I think it demeans what teachers do to think that having students to teach is no real extra work!
Wow... that white privilege article is great.

Kitten is using all litterboxes. Which, yay! I don't need to find a place for a third. And I already scoop once a day. Except I don't know how the grownups will react. Please no accidents.
Yes, I have no life. Would you rather me bitch about my work disaster as I have been?

Tim Wise is...wise.
Apparently Tim Robbins knew something we didn't know. This is a picture from last May:
Man, is he looking old!

Fuck, I made a typo in my name on my SW ticket. This is gonna get me special treatment by TSA, isn't it? (Doubled a letter.) Maybe the cc people will correct it?
eta: whoo. Despite the passenger name being whacky, the reservation is in my correct name. Still might be a case for the stupid TSA inanity, but the ticket will be fine.

I was thinking that Tim Robbins is aging beautifully. But I'm partial to him.

Our wings are not tired.
He's so narrow. Long tail and legs but he's probably maybe 3 inches wide.
Spidy?

I once planned on a mountainous theme for cats. Or villainesses. Which is how I ended up with Nanda Devi rather than Millificent. (I read a book about a climber named after this mountain, who died on it. Made an impression. As did all the other climbing books I read. Not a climber, but had exposure to that.)
And then...Mister Kitty.
So I don't know. Can't name this one Chomolungma. Or K2. Or Pike. And he's too floppy/clumsy for a Spidey.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Quantum of Solace is the dumbest movie title ever.
I have a fruit fly infestation, and the solution I got off the web (plate of balsamic with soap to eff up the surface tension) doesn't seem to be making the difference. Irritating.
