And I bought new sheets since I had a 20% off coupon. I did have a spare set (which I put on) but it needs restitching in a couple places at the seams. Courtesy of MK's old threadpulling habit. CATS! Why are you so destructive to my sheets?
I'm going to see to Wesley, see if he's still whimpering.

Very nifty sink! I wish I had one like it. (Mine has a urine-yellow counter top, which was an unfortunate color choice for a bathroom. I'm sure some designer was shooting for lemon.)
I got to fly for less than half an hour before the pre-storm wind gusts chased us back down to the tarmac. But on the way to the airport, on a twisty country road, I stopped for a wild turkey that was crossing the road with its chicks, which was totally worth the trip. Wandering around in humid, 95F weather preflighting the plane totally wiped me, though. I may go to bed in the next half hour or so.

I need to buy a blender. Does anyone have a blender to evangelize?
I'm going to evangelize the VitaMix. Seriously. It's an intense hardcore blender but it purees EVERYTHING. Like you could put a cell phone in and grind to dust.
You can use it to pulverize whole grains into flour.
You can make soup in it because it goes fast enough to heat food.
The clean up is amazingly easy (water + 3 drops of soap = clean!).
And the motor on it is amazingly sturdy.
Plus they have a 7 year complete replacement policy.
We use ours intensively every single day for Grace and haven't had an issue (knock on wood).
They are extremely pricey, but I want to get one for my parents' place.
This blender easily makes the smoothest smoothies ever. It's what they have at the local juice store. highly highly highly recommend.

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

Ow. On the way home from the mall, I was chewing gum and my filling came out. (It doesn't currently hurt, and I stopped at the drug store and got some goop to stick in it, but I'm not sure how well I'm going to eat or drink until it's fixed).
More annoyingly, I called my dentist and their office is closed on Monday! And I have a work trip on Tuesday. Grrrr. Left a message on the emergency number, we'll see what they say.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
If the local theater says Company is playing at 12:00p.m, do you think that's noon or midnight?

Because books.
Noon. Midnight is 12 a.m.

That's what I thought, but noon on Sunday is a weird time for a special showing.
