I've seen honest faces before. They usually come attached to liars.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Emmett is convinced that everything Italian is more beautiful (cars, clothes, stuff) than anything else.

I do not disagree. Go on, act surprised.

PLEURISY FTW!

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Language, art, men... Emmett may be right.

And then there's Silvio Berlusconi.

She said "men," not "pigs."

I need to bathe Mister Kitty. And before that, I have to get baby shampoo. He's old (19, maybe?) and just not good at keeping himself catspit clean. And today he peed on his foot in the litter, and it was a mess to clean up. Makes me sad, cause it is clearly a sign he's ANCIENT, but his good mood and appetite (he's totally cheating by eating Devi's food right now) is still there. But his hindquarters are weaker and he does a lousy job of cleaning up after himself. Feh. I know he's pretty much miraculous with surviving the diabetes and doing so well, and really, this is ANCIENT for a perfectly healthy cat, but...

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

Oh, poor Mister Kitty! My co-worker is also going through the worries of having a 19-y.o. cat, who just got her teeth cleaned (she showed me the before and after pic, and the tartar that built up over six months was horrific!).

I managed an average lap speed of just under 55s. For 48 laps. WOOOHOO. It was definite work, though. I usually average 57s.

Wow! My lap time is more like twice that, especially my backstroke. And in yesterday's swim, I was definitely slowing down after I got past my 20th lap.

Now tagless for your comfort.

You guys got chatty while I was out at derby practice!

Cashmere - OMGWTFAsshat. Is there a jumpstarter or crowdsource charity for need-to-replace-stolen-boyscout-funds?

The Council will give us some free popcorn to sell to make some money ($700). It'll help. It doesn't stop us from doing our local stuff so the kids are still having fun.

I wonder if they ever find out I'm an atheist if they'd toss us out or if it just takes embezzling to get kicked out.

Why do I wake up early on days I cannot leave until 9? I'd be at work by 8 if I had my car....

I've been awake since 5 -- couldn't get back to sleep. Haven't accomplished much of anything so far.

hip deep in pie

There seemed to be a conspiracy of cats and smoke alarm batteries trying to keep me from sleeping last night. In the end I won, but it feels like I lost.
