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

OK, their second song looks much less like lip syncing.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Ooooh, someone's date didn't go well. I just heard a car pull up in front of my building and a woman say, "Thank you" door slam "Bastard." Well then.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

It seems like live performances end up like the shitshow that was TV on the Radio last week on SNL. Most SNL performances look taped to me, for good reason.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Allyson--did you do our class, the one with grouchy but helpful Dave Barry in the park? Also, yay, Mona!

SNL is supposed to be live performance, but who knows anymore.

Isn't that how Ashley Simpson got busted? Because it was supposedly live and she fucked it up?

I'm going to have to look for that in Leverage now, ita. Never noticed it before.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Grouchy but helpful Dave Barry yelled at me for not paying attention! Hey, in fairness, I was trying to turn Mona around. All the other dogs were in the circle, sitting next to their owners...and my dog was the only one sitting backwards.

She's definitely a clown. The socialization has been working wonders for her, though. She's doing so much better on the leash, and doesn't growl at every person walking by us anymore.

She did steal bacon from me last week, though. And drank my iced tea. Caffeinated dogs are not so much fun.

I can't help but wonder what her story is all the time.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

You could write her story, once you are done with Sam's. An idea I'm sure that has popped in you head a thousand times, being the creative and intelligent woman that you are. But I though I'd say it cause I'd like to read it. "The Adventures of Nephew and Mona, the Wonder Dog"

Because books.

Still need to rewatch The Two Horse Job to see what I missed there.

How sad that you'll need to watch Eliot having sex again, then. Poor you.

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

Ha maybe we should all write books on our pets, the wonder pet series. I could write the adventures of Syl and Oz the wonder fatty fat cats with occassional nap interruptions by mac the wonder child.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I love that about Mona sitting backwards. Hilarious.

When the Biscuit was learning to walk on lead and sit when we stopped, for a while he would sit directly in front of you, instead of primly at your left. So then it was almost impossible to start him out again correctly without doing a little dance of tripping over the dog.

He quickly got the hang of it, although I have some remedial training to do since he has recently concluded that D. is the alpha dog and that Seabiscuit & I are equal subordinates to D. and therefore he doesn't have to listen to me.
