Wash: Well, I wash my hands of it. It's a hopeless case. I'll read a nice poem at the funeral. Something with imagery. Zoe: You could lock the door and keep the power-hungry maniac at bay. Wash: Oh, no, I'm starting to like this poetry idea now. Here lies my beloved Zoe, my autumn flower, somewhat less attractive now she's all corpsified and gross...

[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.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

I started thinking about this because I realized at my mother's that Mr Peabody loves to curl up next to people on the couch. Then I thought that the den would be more comfortable with the the living room couch. The plan went on from there.

Yes, it's the dog's fault.

Yes, it's the dog's fault.

Well then start making him a little harness so he can haul stuff.

Heh. Hec just reminded me of when we moved once when I was about 9 or 10, to a house just around the block. In order to cut the cost of the movers, I swear my mom had every kid in the neighborhood hauling stuff over in wagons and bike baskets. Like, for days, this caravan of 8 to 10 year olds schlepping books and lamps around the corner.

He can certainly pull on a leash hard enough. Maybe I could hitch him to a mover's dolly.

Cats will never help you move furniture

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Now I know why last night's moon was blue...

Big blue ball in the sky.

Cats will never help you move furniture

But they will mock you while you do it. Unless they are stuck under it, and you are in the process of rescuing them. In which case they will be too thoroughly discombobulated to mock. And then a few minutes later, they will attempt to get back under it.

Not that Daniel has had to lift the sofa off of Sammie today or anything....

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"

G'morning. Israel is beautiful. My mental health is taking a bit of a bashing (along with the physical - I am exhausted from all the stairs I had to do yesterday). Having a morning at home while The Girl's family goes to see their grandparents. I was invited, but I can't cope with another day being referred to as her "friend from London." Despite that, The Girl's immediate family are (mostly) working hard at being nice to me. I am totally avoiding twitter and Facebook, as the Brits have all seen Doctor Who and I won't see it until tonight!

Ginger, do the furniture reorganizing thing! I love doing that. The Girl wasn't using her office space in the spare room, so I moved her into the living room and my desk and life went into the spare room. Was fun and we both get our work done better now. The Girl has a system where she makes scale models from paper to make sure all the furniture will fit into new places/rooms. This comes from our history of having moved every six months for the past few years. When moving, we need to know whether we can fit the digital piano into that tiny space by the window. Usually we manage it.

Scrappy, congrats on the empty shelves. :)

smonster, can you ask a vet what to do about the cat? There must be people who know how to deal with this problem. I hope it sorts itself out, in the meantime!

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

In the continuing cat pee chronicles, the little fucker has branched out into spraying my backpack
reason #1 I don't have pets. Best of luck to you Smonster

ION- if you want a good eye ball cleaning, watch the HBO flick "Taking Chance". Thanks to it, I'm outta tissues.

Our wings are not tired.

The Girl has a system where she makes scale models from paper to make sure all the furniture will fit into new places/rooms.

I did that all the time before I used the computer for the process. The little paper models were more fun in many ways, but the computer method allows for printing out the desired plan.

On the Doctor Who front, welcome to our torture!

Mmmm, empty shelves.

Another whole bunch of new snow. When I finish my coffee I will need to take more pictures. Pretty!
