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

It's supposed to be a hot weekend (97 on Sunday!) and I don't have AC... so I might crash at a friend's place.

My parents had the rule that we weren't to swear until we "got old enough." Basically, swearing was yet another privilege reserved for adults only. Of course, that just meant that we swore when they couldn't hear us--my 8th-grade classmates in homeroom were impressed by my ability to use "shit" appropriately.

I didn't start swearing until I was in college.

Now tagless for your comfort.

The kids actually have the context down, so there is that.

Movie theatre, tommy, movie theatre. Or mall, bookstore, or library. Me, I'm turning on my a/c tonight before going to bed and leaving it on until at least next Wednesday.

I'm getting home before 6:00 so I can pick up my Amazon package with BSG and Torchwood dvds to watch tonight, and then I'll be going grocery shopping after I get off work tomorrow. Have to replace the meat I tossed due to the inadvertant defrosting yesterday, and also included in said Amazon delivery is a cooking thermometer with probe, so I might be roasting a turkey tomorrow night.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

In 5th grade, I was super proud of myself for knowing "all the swears." By which I meant the F word.

I am excited to be home this weekend, and plan to go to the movies, do laundry, etc. I'm about to make some cookies, I think.

Yeah, except I can't sleep at any of those places.

I'd offer you my couch, but I'm guessing you wouldn't be able to sleep on it comfortably, Mr. Long Legs.

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

I'll be having some friends over tonight for goofy SF DVDs and the bellini floats that someone mentioned a couple of days ago (peach sorbet and prosecco). Tomorrow I'm meeting a couple of friends for Julie & Julia. I don't know what all will happen Sunday, but as it's supposed to be around 97F here I'm thinking of hiding in my air conditioned apartment and alternating watching the cat play with drinking straws and reading Merlin big bang fic.

Yeah, stupid long legs. Thanks anyway. I might end up crashing at Miriam's (she has a spare bedroom, and ceiling fans and AC).
