Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

Well, Chicago was supposed to have The Spire, but it's currently a hole in the ground for the foreseeable future.

I do like the Spertus Museum for a rather funky looking modern building.

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

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

9.99% APR for 12 months after the first transaction posts to your account under this offer, then your purchase APR will apply, currently 29.99%. The purchase APR will vary with the market based on the Prime Rate.

What does this mean? Does this mean that I get 9.99% rate only after the first purchase transaction, and then after the 2nd, it becomes astronomical?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

My kitty has been very lethargic the last few days so she goes back to the vet today.

So, putting the cat carrier on my bike rack and riding about a mile and a half to the vet - good idea, or bad? (The alternative is getting a cab.)

Now tagless for your comfort.

I'm really glad I'm not the only one that has banana bread emergencies.

I'm so pissed. I busted my ass to work on this report for the non-profit board I'm on. We're defending some funding and I killed myself to do the research and write the report for the committee. We were working on final edits and I didn't get the report out to the board until this morning. One of the board members sniped me in email about it and I nearly lost my shit. That is NOT on.

Bad--kitty's already sick and stressed.

Yeah, the relatively harsh ride of a bike might stress her out more than a cab ride.

Too bad I can't sneak her on the train.

A very good friend just told me she's moving to Tulsa from Las Vegas. Do we know anyone in Tulsa?

Nope, Kristina who I worked w/ at Rutgers.

eta: I don't think J is going to move while her father is in LV.
