Huh. Like the way Abercrombie & Fitch used to be a kickass expedition outfitter and now they're, well, disappointing.

The company that makes my CPAP mask for my sleep apnea also does woodworking tools. Conglomerates are interesting.

Those kind of injuries drive me up a wall, sarameg.

They were? That is hard to picture.

Second batch of macaroons definitely not as successful as the first. You can see the progression, getting flatter and blobbier, from the first one I scooped out to the last. Too much stuff needing to be gently and/or lightly folded into the egg whites is my guess. I am not great at that, it is known. Oh well. After they cool down a bit I will taste the flattest blob and see if it's okay.

Anyone know why Ghost Rider is on BBC America?

MIss Erzabet No Biting is a cuddler. She wants to sit on my lap, and will herd me to a chair so there will BE a lap. Better yet is if I have a blanket over my lap, so she can be Under.

Vlad likes petting, but the only time he really wants a lap is if I'm sitting at the work desk. Usually during a phone meeting.

Ruthven wants petting and tummy rubs, but mostly wants to sleep.

The second recipe was not for macaroon at all, but for meringue cookies. The process was so similar I assumed they were the same, but i guess not. in any case, both taste pretty good.

There's an electric toothbrush with bluetooth, so you can keep track of how well you're brushing your teeth and chart it all in an app. [link]

I do not want my toothbrush judging me.

I somehow feel like I should tie that to Teppy's flossing plan. Which I managed for like, three days and then tonight forgot until just now but I'm already in bed. Oh well.

Once of the big library database companies also is in the sport-fishing industry. Companies are weird.

Yeah Aborcrombie and Fitch was a big outdoor gear place -kind of like LL Bean but more outdoorsy. I think they are mentioned in an episode of I Love Lucy when there's an attempt to go camping.

I say attempt because it's I Love Lucy so things never quite turn out right.

Cats I've had:Anna who lived to be nearly 21 years old, she wasn't snuggly but she'd let me snuggle her a bit at night then (I discovered after moving the bed one day) usually go and sleep under the bed right at my head. Easy to find wiht the nest of black cat hair.

Maddie and Dean were sickly little cats - Maddie was so pretty but very shy and when she wanted attention it was a gift from a goddess. Dean was more affectionate and would knock anything over on the table, often waiting until I was looking to do that. ANd he'd scrounge through the trash!

Penny is my current little ball of fur. She's affectionate likes to get on my lap when it's least convienent. Doesn't like to sleep with me unless it's really cold. Or to climb on me with some sort of demand.

Mom's current cat is an under the jacket or blanket type of cat and he'll even crawl under her top to get the kind of snuggle he's looking for.
