Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Oh my god, someone needs to adopt Stanley Nubbins McScruffigans ASAP!!!

ION, I just bought way too many pumpkin-flavored foods at Trader Joe's. Which shouldn't be surprising.

I also have cupcakes. One of which is pumpkin.

I don't have a problem I CAN STOP PUMPKIN ANY TIME YOU'RE NOT MY REAL MOM.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

So, there's a children's book that exists about recognizing the signs of a stroke. I mean, I guess?

I want all the pumpkin stuff but first I have to eat my refrigerator full of vegetables. Luckily that includes a butternut squash, which is practically the same thing.

I cannot believe that no one here needs a pet. LURKERS!!! who needs a pet?

BTW, I am also pet-spamming my brother, so you all have company.

Because books.

My cats had to go live with Grandpa, and I miss them like crazy. Woe.

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

I JUST GOT A NEW PET ON MONDAY FOR THE LOVE OF GOD.

IN addition to wanting another dog, I also want kittens, which I know, really bad idea, but in my crazy fantasy world, I am also not needing to work and have energy and time at home to do things like crafts and home improvements and pet-watching.

Therefore I would need these guys:

Thrive to spite them

I want another cat. But technically I can only have one. Technically becuase it looks like no else follows the allowed number of cats/no outdoor cats rules.

I'm not sure how Penny would do with another cat. However if I did get another cat it'd be a male and he would promptly be renamed Sheldon.

The temporary pets I have now are all I have the time to take care of. It was a lot easier when I could just pet them while feeding them in the mornings and then not feel guilty about leaving them alone for the next 23 hours.

Punishingly Intricate

I've been getting Bob used to the idea that we are going to need two kittens soon, msbelle!
