I think my cat would find "partner" an inaccurate reflection of our household's command structure. (He commands. I generally do. It's a short structure, like an igloo or a hobbit house.)
You never know if a girl's gonna say 'yes', or if she's gonna laugh in your face and pull out your still-beating heart and crush it into the ground with her heel.

So that gorgeous magazine cover of SWINTON that was posted here last night? Pete said that if you ignored the color palette, it reminded him of Anjelica Huston as Morticia. Which led to a dream-casting discussion if a remake (please G-d no) of the Addams Family were to happen. Pete suggested Jeffrey Dean Morgan for Gomez, and then my head exploded in glee.
(Yes, I am typing from beyond the grave.)

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I feel if my cat were a real partner, she would stop peeing on things.

It looks like Everest got tired of being thought of as the "safe" mountain and is telling K2 to move over.

Please kiss Pete for me? That's going to make me happy all day long.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
So who's going to be the first to combine SWINTON, cat partners and Everest in one post?

Because books.
SWINTON would probably have Big Cat partners, but I can totally see her gliding up Everest beside a tiger.

Feline partners. Little fluffy tyrants, sure. Partners? Heck no.
This is my second day in a row in the office and now I remember why I work at home so much. The air and lighting here gives me such a headache. I had just been talking over the weekend about how my headaches have eased off so much - both plain headaches and migraines. Gah.
In the further adventures of CJ - tonight and tomorrow he will be participating in the local sheriff's "Active Shooter" training. No, he won't be handling a gun, but will serve as either a victim or bad guy for the sheriffs to defend or take down.

Confusing headline o' the day:

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
One of our cats has a partner, who we are pretty sure is SATAN. Only way to explain her behavior. The other is just, you know, a really good cat. And our dogs are dogs--if you want to be specific about roles, they are, as we never tire of telling them, good boys.
