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

And now I'm catted. So.

Wow, that sounds so fast, lisah! I hope it really works out that way.

And good luck wit the leak, Jesse. I hope there's a less destructive way to deal with it.

And the cat has released me. OK, the plan is to get the front yard

  • edged
  • mowed
  • the rosebushes semi wrangled
  • birds fed
  • pots watered

before I post again...

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I was full of motivation and plans last night. Today, all motivation is gone and I'm cold and cranky. I may go back to bed.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I will say, my parents' bathroom was generally functioning throughout their interminable re-do, even when there were no walls!

One cat moved next to me, but the other one is now on me. And seriously kneading my bicep however that is spelled.

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

Fun! And probably no candy bars in diapers?

My friend Tim who is hosting kept insisting "no poop games!" every single time the topic of the shower came up. I didn't even know what these things are (now I do) so I had no desire for such a thing...but he was really worried that that would somehow occur. So no. No poop games. No vagina cakes (THE HORROR). Just onesie decorating and bellinis.

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

I don't remember if this has been posted before, but it's good to keep these rules by Greta Christina in mind: Feline Paralysis: "I Can't Help Fix Dinner, I've a Cat on My Lap!"

Onesie decorating and bellinis is all any baby shower needs!

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I got outside for a walk and to pick up cat food before the forecast rain moved in. Now we have a cold steady rain that's expected to go on most of the day, and I'm sitting here feeling warm, dry, and self-righteous.

Something's gonna explode now, isn't it.
