took the cats out for a test drive. They were vocal and annoyed, but did pretty good! Aw, my boys.
Spike's Bitches 45: That sure as hell wasn't in the brochure.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
omnis just pony uped my henna tattoo budget.
Well done, omnis. Well done!
Monstro will never go away.
Sweet jeebus, what is Monstro?
Monstro is a giant bookshelf weighing approximately ten tons.
Monstro is 8' tall and 8' wide and 18" deep. He looks like a Tetris screen created out of painted pine boards. Joe's mom had an engineering student make it in 1970. It has been across the country twice (there and back again. much like Bilbo Baggins.). He will be used as a room divider in the basement of our new digs. Monstro has been the bane of my decorating lifestyle for years. At least until I was finally allowed to paint him last year. Now, I don't mind him so much.
Monstro was awesome. I always felt like you'd never run out of book space with him. Possibly because he'd eat the books but whatever.
Go with your moving self, Aims!
I don't know if I ever saw the "before" and "after" Monstro paint jobs. Do you have any pics!? And what a relief that the piano is gone. Awesome.
Hive- mind advice requested, specifically from those who can advise on shiva dos and don'ts. My much-loved boss from a previous job just lost her father after an illness and is sitting shiva this week. I knew this was coming but haven't figured out the best way to pay respects. I'd like to make the visit, but I do not want to impose. I can send a tray if that's better -she will know I made a special trip if I do go, and I don't want that to become a big deal.

I just spent like 30 minutes looking and couldn't find any except when we moved him from LA. When we put him back up, I'll take pictures and post them. He's humnormous. And I would actually love to have another one built.
I dreamt I joined some kind of revolutionary group ( I don't know why) and when I read their glossy newsmagazine, I was annoyed by all the typos. I looked at the info page, and they outsourced the mag to Russia, and all of the editors names were in Hebrew, and I was very annoyed that they (a) had a gloss newsmag and (2) I couldn't read the editor's names to yell at them for all the errors.
I fear I would be a very bad revolutionary. Also, don't drink margaritas before bedtime.
But don't drink them in the morning either?!?!?
It's like there is no good time to drink 'ritas.
Of course, that could also be taken as there being no BAD time to drink 'ritas...
