Email to my sister

My kitty hung out with me all day in the bedroom yesterday watching tv. I figured what the heck, we had a good time and I didn't want to close the door on her at bedtime... after I turned off all the lights I cracked the bedroom door. She waltzed in and immediately jumped on the bed and picked her corner. So far so good, gave me a nose rub goodnight and we settled in. Around five-ish a.m., I woke with a start, noticing some pressure on my leg. Then I moved some more and she POUNCES on my leg! Moved it again and she did it yet again, teeth and all! Um - owwwwww!!! I literally kicked her off the bed. Actually saw her fly off, pretty funny actually. She dusted herself off, and walked out to her litterbox. I jumped up and closed the door, lower limbs safe once again.

Methinks I won't try again til she's a bit older and she tones down the dreams of being a tiger on the Serenghetti and pretending my legs and feet are zebras.

Of Guidos, Guidettes and others...

I am rather amused at all the hoopla over that MTV show. I'd like to see it, but I'm obsessed with Steven Segal's Lawman and too cheap to get DVR. I wonder how a show like this with black kids instead would have been received? After all, if you leave out any and all references to ethnicity, which race would you associate with the celebration of ignorance, monolithic thinking, hatred of real work and stupid girls proclaiming their race of men are the very best?

...perhaps BET will pick up the slack? Wait, they do already...

My cat was right...

...I should have stayed the hell home.

Winter sucks.

Fun fact #136 (from an excellent message board)...

...you could be the best person in the world, but if someone wants to find fault they always will.
