Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I am so excited for all these new animals! It is making me wish that my Miss. Mew-Mew/Miss Bobo/Snickers did not hate other cats so much that I ended up getting her because her owners wanted to have her put to sleep. She hates other cats so much she gets into meowing wars with the cat in the apartment downstairs! Through the wall!

I predict that we will all wear ourselves out and be in bed by midnight. Unless, of course, I can't stop the sneezing.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

So excited.

Oh, another thing that you can add is corn. I never have, but it seems like a good addition.

Kristen, I hope you sleep with a warm nose tucked into your neck. I expect she might be nervous the first week, but I hope she cottons on to y'all quick.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Leverage got an extra six episodes ordered. More Eliot! More Hardison! Mmmm.

I suspect she'll be a bit nervous in her new home too. That's why, as sad as we were to not get her on Wednesday, I think it was probably for the best. This way, we'll have tonight and the whole weekend with her at home before we start leaving her alone for long stretches.

Everyone- Doers anyone have a good black bean soup recipe-- I an cobble one together, but I'd love recs

I have one I've cobbled together, but I don't really have, like, measurements:

chicken stock
1 onion, chopped
6 garlic cloves, minced
1 T. olive oil
1 can black beans, rinsed
1 can tomatoes (or fresh grape tomatoes)
frozen corn
shredded cheese
green onions, chopped
lime juice
sour cream

spices: salt, black pepper, cumin, chili powder, oregano, bay leaf

Sautee the garlic and onion in olive oil, then toss in the chicken stock and tomatoes, spices, frozen corn, a dash of lime juice. Add the black beans (I put some beans aside and mash them before they go in for thicker soup). Simmer for about 30 minutes. Add green onions and cheese, then serve with a dollop of sour cream.

In the past, I've added bacon. I think you also could add sausage or ham.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

OMG, my brain is running in circles - too much caffeine this afternoon. And I keep trying to do things and mac wants to talk and then I don't have the stuff handy I really need to do the tasks anyway. FRUSTRATING.

mac just needs to get done with bath and get to bed fast.
