"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

Mr. Peabody killed a mouse in the middle of the night last week. He tore the sheetrock to get to it. He lets nothing get between him and the rodent he smells. I've seen him trying to chew through landscape timbers. Now I have your traditional mouse hole, and Mr Peabody has spent every night since watching it.

I'm sticking to the paper snow.

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

Loki cannot resist temptation, no matter what shreds of politesse he may posess.

Rosie can't resist envelope windows. I wouldn't mind so much if she only shredded them, but she eats them. And then pukes.

All of my lockouts have been at night, usually when I'm doing laundry or packing to leave town.

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

None of my cats are paper shredders, but the rabbits sure are. Also rugs. And tarps that are specially made to fit small animal enclosures. Fortunately they are mostly contained by said enclosures. Mostly.

I think I might have my front door set to lock automatically, but I have to throw the deadbolt just to keep it closed, so locking it is a fairly automatic process for me anyway. Keypad means never needing keys, though, so that's nice. Unfortunately I sometimes have guests who lock the non-deadbolt lock and that does need a key. On the upside I almost always have the back door wide open so Walter can go in and out as he pleases. I probably shouldn't post that on the internet. He's a big scary dog, potential thieves, and I do not have stuff worth stealing!

Ferguson update for those not glued to Twitter:

Police are firing tear gas at peacefully protesting families and children hours before the midnight curfew. Media are being threatened by police. Private autopsy report has been released showing that the kill shot came through the top of Mike Brown's skull.

They executed that child and don't care how many more people (mostly of color) they hurt, kill, or detain. This is not protecting or serving. This is savagery.

Captain Johnson, he of the Missouri Highway Patrol, who walked among protesters on Thursday is now arresting journalists for no cause. There are no good guys, no saviors out there in authority.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Nora, I can't find anything about the autopsy report other than he died of gunshot wounds. Do you have a link?
