Aims, I'd like that, too! (And thanks, Perkins! It was great to meet you, too. Say, I need to get my San Francisco pictures online.)
I'm back from a weekend at my B-i-L's boat. Most of the time we spent hanging out on the back porch-like area, watching the other boats go by, drinking margaritas. We did go out on Lake St. Clair today, but we discovered an electrical problem that the B-i-L and nephew will have to fix. (Well, find first, then fix, as is the way of electrical problems.) Luckily the nephew just got his electrical engineering degree, so he's about to start earning the last four year's tuition.
Also, I shared the whole polar bear thing with my sister, who found it hilarious. We've been going around mouthing "polar bear" at each other as the kids scrapped.
Who was it that mentioned that cats like to wash other cats' ears?
I think DitabooNewCat is the first cat I've owned that wants to do that. Perkins the cat has no idea what to make of it, which makes it comedy gold, at least for me.
I have to report to jury duty tomorrow. Fuck a duck.
Urgh. (If it's the one down by Little Village, they have wireless by the way so you can bring your laptop if you want.)
the reason I'm making it at all is to have champagne floats with peach. Like a bellini.
That sounds delicious.
I am the only person awake in the house right now. I feel I should do more to take advantage of it, like take a bubble bath or something.
Jury duty is truly an onerous part of being a member of society. It's like visiting a legal sausage factory.
3/4 of our dinner came from local sources--new potatoes, zucchini and raspberries. The potatoes and zucchini were grilled alongside the chicken. Yay for my foodshed!
I am also pro bubble bath.

Oh, sweet. I wasn't going to bother, but I may reconsider.

Bro and I make liberal use of polar bear and marmot (very handy around a 4 year old). We were working on other animals, but since those are the only ones we really use, the others haven't caught on.
