I think this may not be the Neko Atsume thread, but I finally saw Peaches! Still need Bengal Jack and 5 mystery cats.

I have not played Neko Atsume since Pokemon go came out.

It's around -17C here with colder windchills. Working downtown means the winds are brutal. Of course, I've had to leave the office for meetings twice today.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Ha! And now someone is commenting on my friend's post that she (the other person) ran a 10-mile Army race 1 week after getting her gallbladder out, and my friend shouldn't even still be in the hospital. I think it's about to turn into a competition in those comments.

OTOH, someone else emphatically said that my friend should never have had her gallbladder out but should have done a cleanse. I think what those 2 comments prove is that my friend knows CRAZY people.

I think you are right.

I think if someone had suggested a cleanse, I would have suggested they shove a shot glass up their urethra and out their belly button.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

How is your mother's ankle, Jesse?

Foot/knee, but OK, I guess? There's nothing wrong with the knee, per the doctor, but she wrenched it pretty good, so it's been hurting. Mostly I think she's bored. So I feel bad that I'm going out tonight, but not bad enough not to go!

Holy crap, seriously.

The north end of the lake has a rain cloud over it. The south end of the lake is in sun. A cloud is rolling around the corner of the mountain and closing over the south end. I love being able to watch weather develop (and I can have the weather radar website open and watch it develop. It's kind of like having a sports broadcaster calling the action as I watch it unfolde)

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Non-Buffalo wings are meh.

I've had good spicy Thai wings at actual Thai restaurants. (That is, not some Thai flavored thing at a Wingstop.)

Just ran the steps for the first time since the day after Thanksgiving. Not bad. Just gotta...Be Consistent! Be Be Consistent!

Don't bust a stitch, sarameg! Though I'm sure it felt good to get out for a bit.

I'm just getting over the gurgle guts virus I caught from Matilda. 24 hours and done but each trip to the bathroom now is an adventure still because of kaopectate.

I can always tell when people are playing on a private channel of the internal messaging system, stifled laughter coming up from various corners of the room. I love this time of year in my industry, it's nice and quiet.

Looks like President Obama's press conference is starting.

I hope Joe Biden is standing behind him wearing wraparound shades and hefting a baseball bat wrapped in barbed wire.
