Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Obviously, my children's geek heritage is strong.
That's awesome.
My kids are woefully behind on geek culture references. Too much PBS and not enough Cartoon Network.

Cornflakes with coconut milk & sugar, followed by popcorn for breakfast isn't bad is it?

Happy Birthday, Gloomcookie!
I do not want to be awake at this hour, but I am on a teleconference. Luckily, it is a useless training one that I do not need to pay attention to at all (about being a "global employee") so I can play around on the internet instead of actually listening.

Speaking of kids. This morning while I was on the treadmill, Emaryn starting using my computer. I don't know why since hers is still right next to it. I didn't have a good angle to see what she was looking at, but when I got off the treadmill I saw that she was reading b.org. I guess she was trolling through my browser history and b.org was the most interesting thing to look at.

In addition to being scared of what will happen when my kids learn about 911, I am scared of them reading. Because then they will be able to read what I say about them on the internets. Like this I am typing right now.

Yeah, these days it's all about whether your kids will friend you online, but soon it's going to be about whether your mom will friend you...

He did not say anything to them, just froze and gave me the phone, at which point I explained that my son had called and they verified that there was no emergency and hung up. Apparently pretty common amongst kids with quick flare tempers.
That's a better tactic than my former crazy neighbors who hung up and then pretended they weren't home when the cops showed up. Which led to the cops knocking on my door. I got the feeling that this was not their first time showing up at my crazy neighbors.

Yesterday some neighbor called 911 and reported an emergency at our house. The cops showed up and said it was a cell phone that called. We don't have a cell phone. The cop asked if the phone could have called it accidentally, and Hubby reiterated that we don't own a cellphone. Cop was startled, then looked around the neighborhood in annoyance, wondering who was prank calling the cops.
For some reason, the neighbor two doors down dislikes us. He may not realize that our town now has the means to track down 911 calls done from cell phones. Heh.
