Why did I not remember that the biscuits for strawberry shortcakes need to bake in a 400F oven? It's too hot to bake!
[edit: AAAAAAAARGH I hate my oven. Biscuit FAIL. Bottoms are totally burnt.]
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

The makeup folks put ears on my son Adam to surprise me. A precious moment while shooting the original series.
I discovered yet another dead mouse out on the patio this morning. Obviously a serial-killer cat has moved into the neighborhood.
See, if I could just pay someone to come and do this FOR me? Man, I would seriously give someone my whole next paycheck to come organize my house and get rid of shit I don't need and tell me where shit goes and what's actually OK to get rid of.
How much do you make? I'm a Virgo.
Seriously, if you lived closer, I would do that! For like, margaritas. I love organizing other people's stuff.
But why is the Dexter cat leaving the victims on YOUR patio, Theodosia? Is it a message? Is the cat watching you? OMG THE CAT IS COMING FROM... wait, outside the house. Never mind.
Koogie was perfectly happy to share his food dish with a mouse. At the same time. He actually looked up while chewing, stared at the mouse five inches away from his face that was nibbling on a kibble, then went back to eating. Mouse froze for a moment, then went back to nibbling.
My cat couldn't manage to kill an ant this morning, so I have no hopes for her killing a mouse if I ever get one.
Ahaahaha. We found more ants last night. We even figured out (after disconnecting and moving the dishwasher) where they're coming in from. I want a do-over for this weekend.
Instead, I am going to spend today cleaning and writing. Pete (who slept for about three hours last night) is going to spend it clearing greenery away from one side of the house. Someone please send coffee, cupcakes, and booze.
I tried the 5-thing method for dusting (my housework nemesis) and now my living room looks much better. Thanks, Erin!
I shall put away all the shoes in my living room. If there are more than five pairs, does that count as five things?
Sheesh, first Janine Turner came out as a conservative Republican and now she looks like Carol Channing. Oh, Maggie...
