Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

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

Aw. I have been missing kittens lately.

Me too. Can you be a crazy cat person if you also have a dog to go with the cats?

My co-worker is a tiny tuxedo kitten who will Not let me pick her up!

I think that constitutes a hostile work environment!

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I'm working at my friend's pet store today (in exchange for pet supplies)

My eye slipped and I read it as "in exchange for PUPPIES"

Kato lies on the floor not 5 feet away and makes stinky dog farts all day. THAT is definitely a hostile work environment. Good thing he's so cute.

Punishingly Intricate

Why didn't I give myself time to fix another iced coffee to bring in with me?! I had so much time. And now am stuck and under caffeinated (if amused by kitten antics like falling in a bowl of water while trying to scale a bookcase).

I gave the kitten a wadded up piece of paper. This will keep both of us entertained for hours! We are simple lasses.

Our wings are not tired.

he can no doubt look forward to a babyhood full of gorgeous and totally improbable lullabies.

I do enjoy imagining this. Making up lullabies is even fun for those of us without talent.

I am doing nothing but making calls in between work meetings trying to wrangle insurance, and then once that's under control, I get to move on to wrangling the move since I just got the assessment & quote.

Do I really need to get $500,000 liability? I don't think I do, right?

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

Do I really need to get $500,000 liability? I don't think I do, right?

I'm trying to imagine scenarios where you'd need that much insurance. Like you accidentally drop a fridge on a dinner guest?
