Aw, tommy. Moving is so stressful. Do you have your bed set up at your new place? If not, do so, and try and get a good sleep.

My pregnant friend just emailed me that she's having contractions! BUT, she had contractions for six hours on Friday night and no baby. That kid is taking it's time.

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

Do you have your bed set up at your new place?

Sorta' More like a mattress pad and blankies. I'm gonna get a new bed as soon as I get paid.

Kitty is already at the new place. She's been alternating between hiding and exploring. But she seems OK.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I told them to take everything from this one closet. They missed everything on the top shelf.

Jeez louise! Make sure to tell the company about it tomorrow.

Kitty was still hiding (with her food uneaten), but she came out of hiding after I was there for a bit. And she came over when I said "Brush?" (the one word she knows) and happily accepted a brushing.

I am now at this awesome cafe with my dinner (Chamomile tea, a piece of cinnamon bread and an M&M cookie). I don't have internet at my new place yet, so it's great to find a place with free wifi that's so close.

Oopsie! Saad Khan, Pakistan Reality TV Contestant, Drowns In Challenge

OK, wtf kind of challenge is this? Did no one stop and think, "Gee, is there anything that could go wrong here?"

ISLAMABAD — A contestant on a Pakistani reality TV show drowned while performing a challenge for the program, a spokeswoman for the show's sponsor said Sunday.

Pakistani contestant Saad Khan, 32, was swimming across a lake while wearing a 15-pound (7-kilogram) backpack when he called out for help and then disappeared underwater, according to Fareshte Aslam, information officer for Unilever Pakistan, the show's sponsor.

Horrified co-contestants and crew rushed to try to save him but could not find him in the murky waters of the lake in the Thai capital of Bangkok, where the show was being filmed, according to Aslam, who was recounting reports of those on the scene.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I just got home. What have people been doing this weekend, and this week, and last weekend?
