Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Places like TJ Maxx are good for older model covers.

I love TJMaxx! Good one.

Ugh, I cannot get my stuff to transfer from one phone to the other. Annoying!

Edit: You know, I think the problem is the wonky wi-fi I have been dealing with since I got the Android phone. Good times.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

~ma for your dad, Consuela.

It will probably surprise no one that Gary has a couple song snippets he sings about the cats. For Luna(the skittish scaredy cat) there's "The Luna-cat's under the bed(in the hall, etc)" ala Pink Floyd, and "Lunatic cat, I know you're out there"(Lunatic Fringe) Nova doesn't have any songs with her name in it, that I know of, but he sings bits of filk songs about cats at her. (Mostly "Overflowing Cat Box Blues)

Kat, I knew baseball players (especially in the minor leagues) didn't make much, but I figured a football player surely makes a decent base. But my idea of "decent" may not match the player's, I guess!

Lucy got regular choruses of Howlin' Wolf. I AM (you are) A BACK DOOR DOG...when she'd try to get let out the front.

And both get/got "I can't give you anything but love, baybee" (doggie). In response to begging, of course.

I love TJMaxx! Good one.

I got a Kate Spade sleeve for my MacBook at Winners, the Canadian version of TJMaxx, for $15. Whenever I see how much her Apple cases cost elsewhere, I feel so smug.

My iPhone cover is Roots, and my only regret is that it's black, the same colour as my bag, and so it disappears in there when I am looking for it.

meara, base has gone up dramatically since 2008, I think, when one of the CBA ran out. Prior to that base was as low as $200,000 but if you got cut in preseason, which many do, then you get like $37,000. I'm sure the new CBA is different.

My friend who played minor pro hockey was making less than I did on a weekly basis back in 2000, though with perks from the booster club and area businesses I think he had a bit more disposable income.

Minimum salary for an NHL player who finishes the season with the team is currently $575,000.

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

I think gmail fails sometimes and lets different people sign up for addresses that the delivery system doesn't differentiate. I signed up for firstname.lastname but I am constantly unsubscribing FirstnameLastname from lists. I get a lot of her family correspondence too.
