It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

bon- yes! They love hanging out when we are in the office. Stepping on the keyboard, wanting to sit in laps, investigating whatever that pile of papers is.

Kripkat is obsessed with the printer (like many cats, I know). He acts like it's his personal deity. (And his holy son is the DVD player.) He jogs to the office just in case we'll be printing in there.

You guys understand you're describing a nightmare for me, right? I read all the clingy cat stories and it makes the hair on the back of my neck stand on end.

But they're super cute, and pleasing to the touch, and they love you. It cannot be understated how nice it is that they love you.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Seeing "Yay, fleas!" following a succession of cat posts caused a moment of confusion.

Ha ha! I meant hooray for the flea family and their new car.

Because books.

Cortez *loves* the printer. Things shoot out of it! Which clearly need to be attacked!

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Took my folks to the National Postal Museum. Interesting, though I suspect my dad enjoyed it more than the rest of us, as he is a major stamp collector.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Oh, I've been there! It was neat.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

While mac has been at the birthday party, I went and bought 2 pairs of shoes, some Indian outfits, and two saris to use as shears in the new house. Yay.

Thrive to spite them

Dean likes to knock things over. Especially cups and glasses with anything in it. So I always have to be aware of where my glass is and sometimes I have to hold it.

I can tell when he gets really bored, he starts systematically knocking everything off tables.

Luckily he's easily distracted by the Squeaky Toy being tossed in the play cube/tube set up I have.

Hubby's old cat would go along shelves with breakables, check to see if anyone was watching, then knock something off with just enough effort to clear the shelf. Then he'd stare at us superciliously as we yelled at him. Sometimes he'd wait till we were close enough to catch the breakable.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

It cannot be understated how nice it is that they love you.

I've lived with indoor cats. The cats and I got along great. I just didn't get the reason for them being there. I can totally understate it. Honestly, it gives me the heebie jeebies.

Should I ever fall in love, I'm sure it will be to a man who's devoted to his indoor dogs and cats. It's the sort of trauma I deserve. Small dog(s) too.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

We went for a walk this morning with a friend out in Santa Clarita. If SC weren't so damn far, I'd kinda love to live there in a weird way. Lots of families with kids etc.

We ended up with 3 adults and 4 kids. I felt outnumbered.
