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

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

Just when I thought my Zenni order couldn't be beat for taking at least two weeks to complete the glasses I ordered (let alone shipping them!), my amazon order that originated in California travels to Baton Rouge before returning to California for delivery. But today takes the cake: my Christmas gifts are being delivered today in [My town], Virginia. 3000 miles away from me. Where they are supposed to be delivered. How is this even possible? With street addresses and zip codes?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Hope the purifier helps, ita, and the meds kick in fast. I

After looking at that Hipster Relativity Theory I have a strong urge to become a bee-keeping, pipe-smoking unicorn. How hard can it be to grow a horn out of my head? Im sure I just need to focus.

That's bananas, bon.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

bon, did the phone you give me have a speaker phone on the handset? I'm having a dopey moment.

Thanks, -t. Pain's easing up so far, but I'm definitely going to be screwed this week with meds running out early. Ah, well.

Only if you get one and then fail to supply us with pictures of Kato wearing it.

I don't remember, but probably. But I included the manual in the bag.

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

That reminds me, I've been taking advantage of the insanely strong Aussie dollar to do some overseas shopping. David Attenborough's recent series, Life, retails for $90 at the ABC Shop here. I can currently order it from Amazon UK for $30, including shipping. So I did, along with a Yes Minister/Yes Prime Minister boxed set for a work colleague of Wallybee's (she shares her birthday with Ryan, and has taken an auntiesque interest) and Burnt by the Sun, a Russian movie set in the Stalinist purges, for her employer. (I asked her if we should we read anything into her choosing a movie about the worst excesses of socialism to give to a union boss.)

I ordered them at the start of the week. They arrived yesterday. They crossed oceans and continents in three days. This is beyond awesome.

(PS: Life is breathtakingly gorgeous.)
