I think you can skip the pocketbook. A scooter is a kickass gift and the bracelets are gravy.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
OK, that's what I thought, thanks. I think I'm usually cheap on presents for people I know, but it's because I'm no one's primary gift giver, if that makes sense. I started feeling bad about this little girl only getting this stuff from me!
Of course, I also started stressing out about whether I should also get a helmet....
This is why I'm not a good gift-giver!

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Hey, question for those who know more about these things than I do: Hilary Duff's new song, Reach Out, the one with the "Oh, just in case I neglected to mention it before: boobies!" video clip, is she ripping off Depeche Mode's Personal Jesus?

“Not dead yet!”
There's talk that she is, billy. I haven't heard the song, but I've seen a couple of articles talking about it.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Huh. Well, it samples heavily from Personal Jesus. I'd guess that she's paying royalties to Depeche Mode for the samples, but I don't know how such contracts work.

OK, after listening to Reach Out and Personal Jesus again, I'm not sure if it's actual sampling - I think I'd need to spend some time with some headphones to be sure. But if it's not sampling, it's still basically the same song with mostly different lyrics.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I just listened and:
1. Is she saying "reach out and touch ME"?
2. She has some nice costumes, but isn't she, like, 12
3. That is somehow the identical song underneath, with a different verse and a completely different meaning. It is weird.

Art Crawl!!!
well, it was a nice few weeks with the SF shibas. I think that the entire nation is going to be a little bit down now.
(I'm pretty sure that puppy cam won't stream for me at home.)
Went to the grocery store. Managed to not spend my entire fortune. I've got the chili started and I'm softening butter for the cookies.
Had a change of heart. Going to make "Venetian Crescent" cookies instead. I hope I bought enough walnuts for the recipe. Now my arms are tired and my back is a wee bit sore from carrying home the groceries. And let me tell you walking on the sidewalks nearest my building whilst carrying groceries including a dozen eggs is nervewracking.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I count five puppies right now.

Yes.
