My mom just offered the dog a biscuit and I thought, "OH! I should make cookies!"
In my world, this is not susceptible. This is how I think.
Thank God, I learned to restrain my mouth from talking. Most times.
But? There's always a but. When this is over, can we have a big 'but' moratorium?

Phantom sequel receives early review from Lloyd Weber's cat:
London's Daily Mail reports that Lloyd Webber's new kitten Otto has managed to destroy the music he has penned for the upcoming sequel to The Phantom of the Opera. The six-month-old cat somehow climbed into the frame of Lloyd Webber's digital Clavinova piano, which features a built-in computer.
The award-winning composer told the London paper, "I was trying to write some new music; Otto got into the grand piano, jumped onto the computer and destroyed the entire score for the new Phantom in one fell swoop."

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Maybe in "the future" we'll all have vidoephones, but there will be technology that optionally can make you look dressed all professional, sitting in a nice neat office (or home office, or whatever) even though you're actually sitting there half-naked, with disheveled hair and bloodshot eyes, while the cat vomits on a pile of dirty laundry in the background.
See? This is what I'm talking about! THAT I could work with.

HA! I'd pay for LifeShop in general.
The only person I videoconference with is my mom and that's so she can see the baby. As she is here now, it means I rarely videochat anyone.
I want dessert. This is why I've gained a ton of weight.

There's no somehow involved with six-month old cats.
A couple of remote coworkers join meetings by video skype. One of the reasons I will always be resistant to it is due to all the mocking that happens when the cat/wife/child/dog/neighbor appears in the background and procedes to do something hammy.
OK, work. Must do.

Our wings are not tired.
"I was trying to write some new music; Otto got into the grand piano, jumped onto the computer and destroyed the entire score for the new Phantom in one fell swoop."
The cat is clearly a Buffista and heard our thoughts on the sequel.
I am at the office. I have outside pants on, with sandals.

“Not dead yet!”
I am still in pajamas. Trying to work up the oomph to open my WIP word doc, but having difficulty, since I'm feeling very blah about publishing in general.
Then again, I do want to know what happens next.
