I don't give a good gorram about relevant, Wash. Or objective. And I ain't so afraid of losing something that I ain't gonna try to have it. You and I would make one beautiful baby. And I want to meet that child one day. Period.

I need to remember the evaluation posts next week when I write my quarterly goals. Apparently it's unprofessional to put "Continue to not burn the content servers to the ground" as a goal.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I have to confess my gross person/bad pet owner situation here, so I don't tell my mother, because she would burn the house to the ground. So I got Buddy in October, but he hates other animals and hates the carrier, and seemed healthy, so I didn't bring him to the vet. At Christmas, my aunt pulled me aside and said, "your cat has worms." I was like, how do you know that?? She said, because I see them on his butt. YIKES. I guess I don't look at his butt?? Finally got to the vet today, and when he moved from sitting on the exam table, there was a worm right there! So apparently he's been leaving them all over my home for three months. I am super grossed out, especially because I have never noticed!

So they gave him pills, and he should be fine. Apparently the pills work, because in the 10 minutes between when they gave them to him and when I got him out of the carrier, he pooped in there and it was extra gross with worms already! But again: GROSS.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

54 degrees. This is an acceptable level of cold.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Aw, cowgirl, you are not living in a worm house. They don't usually live outside of a host. If it makes you feel any better, we had dogs when I was a toddler, and my folks discovered they had worms because I GOT WORMS.

Hey sewing types, do any of you use patterns for pirates? Also, any serge machine suggestions? I think this spring I want to start making my own running skirt/dresses and it would be awesome to have a serger to make them.

Worms are gross, but yes, the pills work. And you are NOT the first buffista pet owner to have a wormy pet, I assure you.

Oo Kat, are you going to make a pirate themed running skirt?

I like exercising in skort type things just because I get bored of leggings sometimes

Ah, that mid-60s rural with free-ranging dogs lifestyle. I remember it well.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Kat, I have this serger: [link] and it likes carrots.
