Aww, dateaversary is not silly to celebrate! Yay for you guys.

Xmas bummer: Dave's student gave him a delicious loaf of banana pineapple bread. That's not the bummer. The bummer is that Seabiscuit thought so too, and while I was sick and Dave was working, he dragged it down off the table and ate the whole loaf. Bad Biscuit, no biscuit!

Home at last. So exhausted. Insane amounts of drinking, smoking and card playing late into the night. I think the dog and I will both be glad to get back to routine. And the cat is glad to have us back.

bonny, do dogs have a problem with garlic and onions the way cats do (Heinz bodies anemia)?

How about seitan and tofu buffalo wings? Because there may have been an incident in the back of the car last night when we forgot they were there until half way home. And by that point, they were not.

Awww, that's too bad. Like it wasn't bad enough that you were sick over Christmas.

I had phone woes over Christmas - but they seem to be good now. So, Whew!

Soy can wreak havoc on a dog's tummy, so you may end up with some unpleasantness, made worse if the soy products had a lot of spice added.

Be prepared for...um...expulsions. I'd recommend frequent trips outside, just to be on the safe side.

Then again, you could have a cast iron stomach situation. But, be prepared.

Clearly I need to find a Greek to marry.

Or find some Greek friends about to get married and give them a super useful pre-wedding gift.

It's a tradition at Jewish weddings to stomp a wine glass, usually placed into a velvet bag or such to contain the shards. Know any engaged Jews?

Oh my Bitches. I came home, scooped the cat pans, took out the recycling, fed the animals and myself, emptied/loaded the dishwasher, handwashed the other dishes, washed my muddy work clothes from today, hung them on the drying rack, made notes about the Fresh Makers, looked up some stuff for tomorrow, called Time Warner b/c the DVR I just got is fritzing, wiped the counters and the stove, opened some lingering mail (got your card, Zenkitty!)... I get to walk the dog, take a shower, and go to bed now, yes? The rest can wait, yes?

The rest can wait, yes?

That's more than enough.

Has your poison ivy all cleared up?

The rest can wait, yes?

Yes.

I am online shopping but not online buying. I don't even recognize myself. I am ... browsing. For fun. I think I returned from California broken.

Thanks, David, and thanks for asking about the poison ivy. The rash is gone, but as is my wont the itchies have experienced a post-prednisone resurgence. And I also have my characteristic post-PI hives. So I'm still taking antihistamines, god help me. I hope one can't build a tolerance to those that render them ineffectual. and thanks, Cass. It may seem silly but I find the validation helpful.
