Signs that your grandparents are still sexually active:
(And no, she would not be offended. SHE'S the one who taught me classic expressions like "tent-raising" and stills refers to her lady bits as her "possible" [??!!!]. But for heaven's sake, don't visit her
wearing just a tee shirt [which she hates] or the color purple [hates
more], or you will seriously offend!)

We went to spread the joy of Sushi at a historic mansion that is rumored to be haunted. The place is called Shiro, it's a hidden gem. Here we
are trying to get Cat to try a California Roll. She actually did try it
but it was a difficult sell. We still managed to have a lovely evening
trying other delecasies.

Ok I dropped off Lilly at school a few minutes ago, today she is there all by herself for the full amount of time. Sigh, it is too quiet here. I wonder how long it will take me to get used to this. It feels like something is missing here. I don't like this feeling.

This prince-less princess is fine By Helena Oliviero The Atlanta Journal-Constitution Thursday, September 04, 2008 Girls adore a good princess tale. The bouffant gowns. The prince. The happily-ever-after. It’s all make-believe, of course, but the pressure to meet a real-life prince —- even for grown, fiercely independent women, can be too much, says Susan Johnston, a former Delta Air Lines flight attendant who worked for the airline for almost 20 years.

I learned today that the library authority I work for spends £4.21 on libraries for every visit made to them.
It made me wonder how much motorsport could buy per viewer using that method. However, I don't have any reliable recent figures for worldwide viewers (particularly since under this model each separate session watched would count as another "visit"). So I had a bit of a laugh finding out how far £4.21 would go. It would be possible to get:

Some time in the month of July I came across the NaBloPoMo website.

After it's melted, add 2 tablespoons flour and cook for 2 minutes on med heat.
Slowly add milk and stir constantly to get rid of lumps. when you have added enough milk, you should have like a white gravy consistency.

I think I am going to stop posting to NaBloPoMo. I ran out of ways to write about the August theme of "hot," and the September theme of "ha" provides me with no inspiration whatsoever.
I might come back sometime down the road, if the theme is something I can relate to. Till then... take care!

Well, finally a post that fits the month's theme of "hot" - hot tempers! At work today, I found some work instructions confusing because they omitted a key step, and I pointed that out to the person who had written up the instructions. I guess she didn't care to have her work critiqued, and - even though I wasn't trying to be critical, just trying to clarify things - she got all snippy and sarcastic with me. I took the high road and apologized to her via e-mail for perhaps not expressing myse…

Princess Bubble Doesn't Need Prince Charming to Live Happily Ever After
There's a new fairy tale princess in town: Princess Bubble.
Before you roll your eyes, however, I should note that Princess Bubble is different from other princesses: she ain't no damsel in distress, and she don't need to be rescued.

I decided to take back the harness I was trying to use on Murray. It was a dog harness, and just not made for a cat's physiology - the straps were too wide and rigid, making it like a straitjacket for him. But standard cat harnesses were too small for my big boy. So, I posed a query on some cat discussion Web sites about where to find extra-large cat harnesses, and several people recommen…

I did get a good-quality harness/leash after all (I had a coupon for PetSmart that I had forgotten about, so they weren't very expensive). I had trouble figuring out how to put it on properly; had to watch a "how-to" video on the Internet. I think I've got it now, but Murray doesn't seem to like having it on. He acts as if he can barely walk when it's on. But maybe he'll get more used to it. I'll give it a week or so before I give up on it.
