It's because you didn't have a strong father figure isn't it?

"You can't put a price on the joy of not giving a shit." -Zenkitty

shrift, who are you rooting for in the playoffs?

Since the Blackhawks didn't make it in and I haven't switched my loyalty to the Sharks, I usually root for the Penguins. Depending on how the first round goes (and it's not going well), I will be dividing the remaining teams into two groups: "Wouldn't Be Mad If They Win It" and "YOU DIE AND YOU GO TO HELL."

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

We had to say goodbye to our ancient, cranky, loving and bossy kitty, Squeaky Fromme, today. She stopped eating about a week ago and just went to bed. She always had to ave her own way and the same was true here. We called in a hospice vet to come to the house and ease her out, which happened this morning. I call them "hospice vets" while J refers to them as "creepy pet killers."

She was J's baby and just ADORED him, so he's pretty heartbroken. She looked a whole lot like Murderbiscuit, and it's nice to see on Facebook that her nefarious-yet-adorable ways are being carried on in Ohio.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Awww, Scrappy, I'm so sorry. It's never easy. Murderbiscuit will try to carry on Squeaky Fromme's legacy.

I'm sorry, Scrappy.

Our wings are not tired.

I'm sorry, Scrappy. Hugs to you and J.

{{{Scrappy}}} I'm so sorry.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I'm so sorry, Scrappy. Hospice vets are a real mercy for some pets, able to stay secure in their own home instead of a scary journey for their last moments.

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

I'm sorry, Scrappy.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm so sorry, Scrappy.

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

Aw, Squeaky. I'm sorry, Scrappy.
