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

Random thought during breakfast: what would happen if you ate a bunch of dry, uncooked steel-cut oats on an empty stomach? Would it soak up all the liquid in your tummy, leaving a semi-solid lump of oats?

Our wings are not tired.

Let us know if you test that theory, tommyrot.

I should have DH come talk to your trash guys, sarameg. He has formed a warm relationship with ours. Partly because he talks to everyone everywhere. Partly because with all the construction and so forth he talks to the guys all the time and helps load up the stuff, shares the mangoes, citrus, and bananas, etc. We never get hit with extra pickup fees and they take all kinds of stuff they shouldn't. I am generally pretty friendly and talky, but he takes it to a whole other level.

My plan is to spread stories about it being the latest trend amongst kids and then get MythBusters to figure it out.

Brilliant plan.

I am pleased with my steak and egg burrito. Less than pleased with being awake. I could use another, oh, let's say week of sleep, that sounds about right.

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

I would like for someone to bring me steak and eggs. And coffee. Not enough sleep + whiny cats = sleepy grumpy human.

I'll scan a burrito for you, Zen. I'm out of coffee, though. I'll get some at the office.

It's already "like Tatooine" out there. This does not bode well.

shrift, did the cleaning help? We don't keep veg in the veggie drawer because it's too cold no matter what. Does better on the shelves.

In other news, while I'm a district teacher of the year, my essays were not compelling to move me on to the next level of competition. Which makes sense. I'm not the Make-You-Cry-With-Emotion sappy sort.

I'm always having issues with veggies freezing because I like my water super cold. It's a trade off.

One kitten got her claws in the extendable duster and I dragged her across the kitchen like a cat mop.

Vlad thinks the Swiffer is his mortal enemy, and chases it. Of course, he also thinks the kitchen chairs are his mortal enemies.
