billytea, your nephew is cute, but Ryan is the king of Aussie cute. This [link] is my favorite. Second favorite is the one with the oh, so innocent expression.

Did I see Ryan with a penguin book? Actually I'm surprised it took this long for the penguin fever to kick in for the next generation.

It looks like the family Tea had a lovely Christmas.

You did! This was at Borders. He was quite taken with it.

I am overwhelmed with so much Ryan cuteness. Laughing Ryan, sleepy Ryan, pouty Ryan, thoughtful Ryan - all cute!

Steph, it's BoA I'm getting away from. My rate is about to skyrocket (late payments on my part, I admit) and so I'm shifting to a Chase card that I had no balance on which has offered me 0% until August. Should be able to pay it off by then, no problem. I'll still have a balance on my credit union card, but one thing at a time. My goal is to get to zero on all of them, and just keep the credit union card for emergencies.

Roomie's cat sprayed the tree skirt again. We are both massively annoyed. Tonight I'll wash the skirt again, and spray the area with Feliway, and if that doesn't work I guess the tree comes down. Grrr.

PB&J and coffee:

Time to get to work. MDT, here I come.

People are stupid. For realsies.

There are four of us from high school that hang out quite often just the four of us. But we also, with as much frequency, have get togethers with a larger group from high school. Well, the four of us had dinner together Sunday evening and posted on FB about it. Now, it appears that a couple of people from the larger group have taken exception to that and unfriended us. @@@@@@@@

Pardon me while I go don my Guess? jeans and matching shar-pei sweatshirt as we seem to have been blasted back to high school.

OMG, Aims, that is, like, SOOO immature. What a bunch of wastoids.

Have almost done an hour on MDT. Of course, it's taken me about an hour and a half to do that, but better than nothing.

Did you know they were stuck in middle school mentality when you knew them in high school?

I did not. And actually, it's really really surprising from this particular woman. Two of us have reached out in email thinking it was just a FB glitch, but no answer and she's commenting on other people's FB stauses (stati?). So pretty sure she's just being a twat.

Which she can do over there. I have neither the time nor the inclination.

Aims, how ridiculously immature of them.

Teppy, it was a blind date sort of set up, it just took me a while to get him all to myself.
