I had planned to go grocery shopping this afternoon, but my ankle had other plans. Also, can't stand up for long enough to figure out how to make a meal out of the food I do have. However, I just found out that a Chinese restaurant that I've been wanting to try delivers to my neighborhood, and I can even order online.

I could use some kitty~ma for Mal. taking him to the vet in a half hour . Fingers crossed that his intestines are NOT bound up with my used dental floss and that there's just a ghost dog or something in my house that he was arguing with last night.

Mal~ma.

Still waiting for food. It's been over an hour. I just called to find out what was going on, and the guy who answered the phone said that the delivery guy went out with it "long time ago."

Job~ma for Lewis and Tom

Go Hil! Congratulations on finishing the writing - that's Huge!

Amy I'll whisper this because it sounds like the Triangle is where you're headed but Asheville is gorgeous

Good luck Kristin!

I have food! I ordered from a place that does vegetarian versions of Americanized Chinese food, so I've got fake chicken with cashews, hunan fake beef, and asparagus. And lots of white rice. Mmm.

Jobma for all!

Yikes, erin, keeping my fingers crossed.

Sigh. D wants to get back together and I said no, and it turns out he came to town hoping I would say yes and he could surprise me. So now he's at a bar three blocks away and asking me what's wrong with him. Did I mention sigh?

Hil, that sounds tasty.

Did I mention sigh?

He's seen too many chick flicks.

Hil, that sounds tasty.

It's greasy and salty and gross and so good. It didn't come with fried noodles, though. I miss the fried noodles. My fortune is "You will enjoy good health, you will be surrounded by luxury."

• phew* vet says Mal is fine, no sign of abdominal tenderness, we shall wait and see if wierd behaviour continues and i'll take him in for an xray if he starts losing appetite or hoarking.
