Pix, is that the one with the adorable ears on your book of the face?

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I want to nom on her ears! I can't stand it!

In other news I have a meeting until 6:30 today. The bus leaves at 6:32 a 5 minute walk away. The next bus is not until 7:38, so unless I can leave early, I will not get home until 8:40.

ND says they are Flying Nun ears, which is about right.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Sophia, is there no way you can leave early? Five minutes seems like not very much to ask for.

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

the one with the adorable ears

That is one cute puppy.

I'm drinking a San Pellegrino Pomegranate and Orange fizzy soda-water thing. It ought to be delicious, but it tastes like that "cherry" flavored medicine I had to swallow when I was a kid and had a cough. Ugh. Glad I didn't buy more than one of these.

Zenkitty, when it comes to flavored fizzy water, there's a fine line between "oh, this is pleasantly refreshing!" and "*clawing at tongue* dear god what is this noxious concoction?!"

Ha! Yeah, SanPellegrino flavors have always pleased me before, even the grapefruit, but this one is rather vile. And yet I'm still drinking it.

"Is it still vile?"

"Hmm. Yep."

"How about now?"

"Hmm. Yep."

..."Now?"

I'm betting most people in a meeting lasting until 6:30 would LOVE a valid reason for stopping it ten minutes early, so long as they have advance warning. Having to keep the meeting moving along will motivate participants to be more concise.

Seriously, even if it does take five minutes to walk, ask for ten so that you're covered if somebody important buttonholes you or you drop your packages or trip going down the stairs or whatever.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Our accounting system is about to go through an "upgrade", Friday it shuts down for 10 days. Every person I know who has been involved in any phase of the testing/training says it is a train wreak.

I am SO GLAD I'm no longer part of the accounting group. Sure, the lack of available data will put a dent in my work, but it is nice to be a few steps removed from the front line.
