I just hope they sell a dead cat in a shopping bag.....

I'm unaware of that urban legend.
Or taco.

Do you feel like having a party?
I don't know? Kind of? I like celebrating my birthday. I just don't like having to plan it.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Tacocracy doesn't open until 4
Now that's just downright un-American.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I went to the farmer's market and brought back food, including a honey pecan tart. Now I am in a food coma, which will hopefully pass before my 11AM meeting.

It ain't easy living in a tacocracy.

It is a good one! And not a taco.(I'm pretty sure I'm going to get the details wrong, but....) My grandmother's friend's cat died, and she had to bring the body to vet for disposal. So she put it in the only bag she had that was the right size, which happened to be a Neiman Marcus shopping bag. She was getting out of the car, and put the bag down on the sidewalk for a second while she did something, and some jerk came and stole the bag! The thief thought he was ripping off an old lady of her expensive department store purchases, but actually got a dead cat in a bag.
The end.

I've heard the same story with an old lady carrying dog poop in a nice bag to disguise it.

I remember really thinking it was true when I first heard it. Were we ever so young?
