Yay Sophie! Hope it goes well!

Me too! I have commanded Perkins NO PUKING

I also hope that Sophie's arrival goes well. And yeah, no puking is always a plus.

And Loki doesn't even have the excuse of being stoned like Sue's Clio does.

And yay, Sophie! No puking, Perkins.

I woke up this morning to find a bag of whole wheat couscous torn open and all over the floor. I don't know whether to blame the stoned cat or the cat obsessed with food. And couscous? seriously?

I keep checking Clio to see if the drugs have worn off and if she's uncomfortable. She seems fine. I think this may have been harder on me.

It usually is.

Loki is obsessed with knocking things over and/or opening them. I'm used to finding the small trashcans, boxes, etc. on their sides when I get home.

I'm not getting out of my morning meeting. Boo.

Spare Cat hasn't torn open her wound, even though I've caught her trying determinedly to reach it.

Intelligence in a cat is not a good thing, especially when it's accompanied by a big streak of stubborn.

So for the moment, she remains a donut head, with the life preserver e-collar in place.

More evidence our president is a geek:

Quote of the day

He spent more than an hour and a half touring the Pyramids, led by the secretary general of the Supreme Council of Antiquities, Zahi Hawass. Four of his closest advisers followed closely behind the pair throughout the tour: Rahm Emanuel, David Axelrod, Valerie Jarrett and Robert Gibbs. Almost all of the information imparted to the president was inaudible by your pool, though POTUS approached us a few times with a joke and spoke a few of his observations for our benefit.

Near the end of the tour, he said, “Hear that guys? No evidence aliens actually built this.” Not having heard what proceeded that comment, it was hard to tell why someone would think aliens had in fact built the pyramids...

POTUS then climbed down a narrow set of stairs to an underground tomb, where the walls were covered with hieroglyphics. There was not enough room there for writers as well as photos so your pooler was not in the tomb when Obama was down there. But according to the TV pool producer, Obama looked at an etching on the wall of a face with large ears and said, “Hey that looks like me. Look at those ears!” A photograph of the image indicates that the president actually does, in fact, look a lot like him.

I love the aliens joke....

This is an awesome picture:

A baby white tiger is held by its minder at the zoo in the eastern German town of Aschersleben on June 4, 2009. The young tiger was born on April 5, 2009 in the zoo.

“Hear that guys? No evidence aliens actually built this.” Not having heard what proceeded that comment, it was hard to tell why someone would think aliens had in fact built the pyramids...

Hee - Obama is a Stargate fan!
