Um, well, we listened to aggressively cheerful music sung by people chosen for their ability to dance. Then we ate cookie dough, and talked about boys.

Because books.

Seriously, ewww. Good news about the lease, though!

On Blacklist:

1. The whole thing is completely implausible! But I liked it anyway -- James Spader is so perfectly arrogant and smarmy, and the girl playing Liz Keen has some spunk.

2. My biggest problem with it is that I think Red might be her father. Which would really undercut the tension if that turns out to be the case.

3. I don't know about her husband! But yeah, it seems the background of an FBI profiler would be a little more thoroughly investigated. My brother is in Navy intel and even they checked out people around him.

But it was entertaining! Mostly because of James Spader.

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

Oh, Blacklist! I liked that pilot a lot over the summer.

At least the feces I'm having to deal with are from animals that don't know any better rather than grown human beings who should. One of them missed the corner of the litterbox sometime last night, though they were clearly trying, and didn't have a lot of choice locations left within. How can two tiny cats that eat maybe a cup of food a day between the two of them poop so much?!?

Spoke to the guy who wanted the Siamese this morning and he's cool with taking both of them. He has kids who've grown up around cats, so things should work out well for all involved.

That's awesome, Matt. Also, cats are poop machines. I never realized until my outdoor cat moved inside.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Well, shit. After surgery a year ago to remove a tumor and six months of chemo, my mom went in to have her colostomy reversed this morning. When they opened her up, they found a mass on the outside of her intestines that they are pretty sure is cancerous. So they stopped the surgery.

Fucking cancer.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh shit, Cashmere. I hope it's not as bad as they think.

Oh god, Cash. I'm so sorry.

That is a mystery.

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

Oh, no. I'm sorry, Cashmere.

Fuck, I'm sorry Cashmere.
