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.

There was a short period in which I was wrestling 4 carriers to and fro.

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

Taking one cat to the vet at a time is adventure enough. Which reminds me, I still only have two carriers. I need to obtain a third for the newest cat. Just in case of emergency.

Though if the kind of emergency happened that would require all three cats to be evacuated at once, I'd probably die from it before I got them all corralled anyway.

Bike ride done, woohoo! Today I will finally conquer Day 3 of Triathlon Training, I feel it!

Gotta remember that it takes half an hour of miscellaneous activity to manage a 15 minute bike ride, though. For day scheduling purposes.

ETA: Shoot, in logging my training I realize I have done today before. Triumph diminished.

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

So lately whenever we've had a lot of rain I've discovered that water had gotten inside my car, and I couldn't figure out where it was coming from. This morning I discovered a bunch more water in the car. I was getting depressed, worrying that I'd have to take it to a repair shop, that the warranty might be expired and that they might not be able to find the cause of it because it only happens when there's a lot of rain.

So I drove to work today and then poked around some more to figure out what was going on--and I'm now 98% sure I found the problem. There was a drain hole under the hood that was plugged with rotting leaves, and it looks like the excess water would drain down under the driver's door and also into the dash. So go me! For... using my brain, I guess.

Go you, tommy! Is it a Chevy? The exact same thing happened to my previous car.

No, it's my 2012 Focus.

I've been noticing leaves building up under the hood for a while now but I've been too lazy to clean them out. Learned my lesson, I did.

I am SHOCKED that it isn't mentioned in the owner's manual.

Punishingly Intricate

Wait, I remember hearing about this kitty crack pad, what is it?! Do I need to get it for my kittens?

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

What I really hate is taking the cat to the vets in a taxi or on a bus. The yowling is even more mortifying.
