Every caregiver needs a break sometimes.
This.
Didn't Bob have to spend a previous 'versary in Chicago as well?
No, but we were in Florida last year and we missed the Xmas Parade. That was way worse!
Anyway, look how cute!!
Oh my god. What can it be? We're all doomed! Who's flying this thing!? Oh right, that would be me. Back to work.

Spotted another mouse last night. Neither Kroger nor Wal-Mart had the catch and release traps I bought a couple years ago, so it's Madame Guillotine for any unwelcome houseguests from here on out.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Supercuties, lisah! I like the glasses frames, too. But not as much as the boy and his dog.
Matilda just informed us that she wanted to watch the new show with the girl that Emmett didn't want to watch.
New Girl? Hec asked.
No, she said, annoyed. The one with the girl with the glasses.
What does she do? Hec asked.
She's a QUIET GIRL. With GLASSES, Matilda said, exasperated.
Is it a cartoon?
YES. The girl with the FRIEND (God, parents, so stupid!)
What does her friend look like?
She has black hair that's short, Matilda grumbled, now completely out of patience with both of us, at which point a light went on in my brain and I shouted "DARIA!"
So now she's curled up contentedly munching a bowl of butterscotch chips and watching Daria. Our little boo.

Heh.
And yep, your boy and dog are adorable. eta: but looking much sterner than either are!
I have to say, I've never planned on being a dog owner, but your CB and msbelle's Bailey have gone a long way to convince me that I could probably love a dog as much as I've loved my cats. I did have a dog growing up, and while I loved her, I just didn't have the same connection as I always have with my felines. Still not planning on being a dog owner (that's just too much work, says she who had 7ish years of her life scheduled around cat meds) but willing to accept that I could be.

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

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Huh. What appeals to her about Daria?
Girl characters who pass the Bechdel test. It's the same reason she likes My Little Pony. Also she may be honing her deadpan snark.

aww, you could! You are welcome to come walk with us any time.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
With GLASSES. And a FRIEND. jeez!
Cutehead.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
Somehow your conversation with Mathilda sounds like mine with my mother, when she is trying to describe tv shows or movies. I am still amazed I managed to get Paul Sorvino from "the man with the daughter"

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
EEK, msbelle. I am glad you are okay!

Have I mentioned I plan to totally pick your brains about dog and cat ownership soon. Same goes for msbelle and others
In just cats news, is it wrong that my only reaction to the cat puke I came home to was "well, maybe that will teach Bubba to stop eating the tree"
Have I mentioned
