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

I tend to avoid heels (on boots and such) because they make it much more likely that I'll hit my head on something.

Damn, no playdate for mac today. I'm still gonna try to do laundry and clean out the kitchen.

I'm hoping to have a cart full of stuff for the thrift store that I can drop of Monday morning.

hip deep in pie

I've been wearing shoes like Cashmere's for a few years now. I can't do much height because of my knees, either. Maybe for a short time, but nothing more that 2-2.5 inches. Skechers also has some wedges that are slightly dressier, but still comfy. I think I have even walked 2.5 miles home in mine.

This morning I got up, sat on the couch and was instantly covered in cats. and I had a sneezing/watery eye fit that was almost like an allergic reaction, except that I am not allergic to cats. It was strange. I may just be getting a cold, I guess.

funny - mac did not make me anything for Valentine's Day. They made one project at school (or he only had enough time to complete one, unclear) and he did it for his best friend.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

They have got to be kidding. It's like they're not even trying to pretend to have anything to do with animal rights anymore. [link]

The activist group People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, or PETA gathered in Downtown El Paso Thursday, and it had many people turning out to see what was going on.

However, instead of finding anything animal-related, El Pasoans found two half-dressed women on a blow-up mattress, French kissing. It had people snapping shots with their phones and cameras, but beyond the shock value, PETA promised there was a message.

"This weekend is Valentine's Day, so it is a great time to get the point across that vegetarians have lower rates of impotence and this is also a great way to show off what a healthy vegetarian body looks like," said Ashley Byrne of PETA.

Also, I've been vegetarian for close to 15 years and my body looks nothing like that.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

The 8 years I was a vegetarian I gained more weight than any other time in my life. And that was with walking an hour a day, 7 days a week, and regular gym workouts.

These days I'm sacrificing cows and chickens in the hope of saving my knees.

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

“Learn more about how delicious and easy a vegetarian lifestyle is," Byrne said.

I swear, the first time I read that, the word "lifestyle" was invisible.

PETA is insane. I can't even pretend to relate. The Klan makes more sense, and I don't say that lightly.
