ION, my cat STILL is playing with the crocheted mitten thumb. This is so weird, because she is not so much a playing type cat. She mostly sits, sleeps, and lays on top of me, occasionally kneading. But she is throwing the thumb in the air, and then chasing and jumping! But when I try to throw he thumb, she is not interested.

MK and Loki have a knitted mouse that is like crack. Speaking of Loki, he just gave me a major scare. I couldn't find him in the house. I checked all the rooms, called him repeatedly, nada. Checked the basement. No Loki (and if he wasn't in the basement, usually the sound of that door opening summons him.) I climbed over to Anna's deck, in the rain. I walked up and down the block in the rain, calling for him.

I come back in and he's sitting next to the front door, blinking at me sleepily. No idea where he was.

Where did you go, Loki!?!?

This review of Welcome Back Kotter on Hulu is cracking me up:

So predictable at points, it makes me sick. John Travolta doesn't help either. I can't stand him. Grease is supposed to be this, "great", classic, but I've never seen it, and I won't, because of, John Travolta. He isn't cool. He just acts cool, and it's so obvious. A cool person, with a cool character can pull it off, if they're cool in real life. John Travolta isn't. The teacher doesn't help the show, either. It's rediculous. The only thing I like about the show is the one guy. He's pretty cute.

That one guy? Who isn't Kotter or barbarino? Does he/she mean Horshack?

IN THE GIANT FAN!!! Mwahahaha.

I need to get to bed.

no word on the counteroffer yet. oh please oh please oh please.

and tomorrow I have to be brave little worker and professional and ask my boss for what I need and NOT start crying. I am wearing my brand new brown dress of awesome super powers and my sassy Fluevogs of strength for that extra bit of help.

I've decided, Loki has an invisibility cloak hidden somewhere. He's done this too many times.

Well, his name is Loki....

msbelle, work up a righteous head of steam. Feel entitled. Feel wronged by the Man. Swear to god, even acting, it helps to stave off the weepy emotions.

Sophia...well, yes.

I'm sorry about your dog, lisa.

Flea, I'm glad you're home.

Health~ma to your mom, Cashmere. UTIs suck.

I just got back from drinks with Amych, Smonster, Corwood Industries, Ms. Industries, and an industrial friend whose name I immediately forgot. Lovely people, all.

Cash, quick heal-ma to your mom. flea, glad you're safe home, after all the meshugges. Loki...well you can't help if you act your name, now can you. msbelle, may the power of brown and fluevog avail you of success.
