Well, other bands know more than three chords. Your professional bands can play up to six, sometimes seven, completely different chords.

Puppy pile! Do you have to pick now or do you wait until they are older? And how old before you take home? 12 weeks? Will K explode before then?

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

ltc!!!

Zen, your friend should start leaving military school brochures laying around. Or... maybe see if a neighbor (is this farmland?) could employ her with some chores? Does she have to earn her allowance?

Puppies!

Speaking of public notices, at the grocery store there was a call to put a stop to the building if a mosque near one our "historic" areas, how it would affect traffic, etc..

The road it was proposed to be built on? Church street.

I'm sorry, your logic right off the bat is faulty. There's already a church there. Is it's Sunday traffic causing major issues? Will the addition of a second church affect traffic in some horrific fashion? Likely not. Do, please tell us the real reasons that you object to this place of worship.

I've been party to "picking" 3 pets in my life. Devi was the adult choice. But the other umpteen have landed one way or the other. I don't know nothing about waiting on a litter!

I picked one pet deliberately (my first actual pet that was my own I dug out of a pile of plywood, and decided I had to keep her after all that effort, and named her Ply) and it was a choice between a scratcher and a hisser for Ply's buddy, so I chose the hisser. She lets me rub her belly now and demands to sleep under the blankets once in a while. Her name is nunya business, because I couldn't think of anything else.

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

We picked Jadzia because she was the one that came running up to us when we went out to look at the kittens. All my other pets have chosen me, one way or another.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Also, Ellen stole Jesse's tumblr idea: [link]

Hmph.

Kat, are you either/both going to get a chance to meet them before you pick? If so, pick the first one that reaches you.

or not.

Really, it's gonna be the one whoever falls in love with the most and has an Opinion. And I'm looking at N&K when I say that.

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

I think I've only ever "picked out" one pet: my cat Niko. We picked her from her littermates by playing with them. The others held back or got scared. She was the boldest and bravest one, and since she was going to a house that already had two adult cats, we figured she'd need the moxie! And indeed, she ruled the place almost immediately. She was the original "Zenkitty".

Zen, your friend should start leaving military school brochures laying around. Or... maybe see if a neighbor (is this farmland?) could employ her with some chores? Does she have to earn her allowance?

Military school, ahaha, that would be great! I can't even imagine her in military school; she'd get thrown out. No one would trust her to do chores; she either wouldn't do them or she'd mess something up. She does have to earn her allowance, by doing chores around the house, but she doesn't do them, or does them halfway and leaves a mess, and she doesn't seem to care that her allowance is reduced commensurately. She doesn't seem to care about either consequences or rewards, nor is she swayed by anyone's opinion of her behavior. I don't know how to get to someone who only cares until the yelling stops.
