We're not gonna die. We can't die, Bendis. You know why? Because we are so very pretty. We are just too pretty for God to let us die.

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 mean, if my roommate is nearby when I'm leaving I'll say goodbye. I'm not a total jerk.

I say goodbye to my cat when I'm leaving if she's nearby.

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

I do, too. And Walter, who typically either tries to come with me or takes the opportunity to migrate to the backyard. I also tell whichever critter is closest that they are in charge while I'm gone. Because some needs to be.

There are still screaming children nearby and I need to answer a question about lube. What is my life.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Ha! I always do this. The cats need some responsibility, frankly.

I feel a little bad when Pixie or Wednesday is left in charge. They are not very responsible. Not like Walter.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I tell the DH when I'm leaving, and he me, but I never told roommates. They aren't the boss of me, would be my take on it.

Our wings are not tired.

I probably always say something when I am leaving, but I am probably the only one in the house that does that. Then again if I visit mom I must call her when I get home so she knows I arrive safely. It is something we have always done in my family.

It has been like 40 years (really) since I had a roommate, so I don't remember.

eta: I think if I was asked to do so I would make the effort.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

At the library , we have a homework club for elementary school kids. In some of the libraries it goes up to high school. It seems to really help that there are a bunch of kids that are getting together in one place for the purpose of getting homework done. I wonder if something like that would help CJ. It is one way to help with the organizational issues

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I think I could do Saturday brunch - there's a possibility Dylan has a soccer game that morning, I need to look at my schedule at home.
