truth = stranger than fiction again: one-legged prostitute killed in Brooklyn. (there's so much sad and wrong and odd with this story. but it's a fascinating writing prompt.)

This CRACKED ME UP: if adults were treated like children.. Worksafe, hysterical, a must-read. <3

Well, the kidlet was late this morning because transportation changed the time on the bus to almost 10 minutes earlier and decided we didn't need to know about it. AUGH.

The flip side of this is that he gets home at about 9 minutes to 4. WIN.

While we were having Bus Issues, the Big Dorky Siamese got OUTSIDE, wandered down our side of the courtyard, crossed the courtyard on the path, went up the far stairs, across the alley, into SOMEONE ELSE'S YARD, then came back, did the courtyard loop again and finally came back inside. I was out there for nearly fifteen minutes calling him. Foolish cat.

Here is the doofus in question snuggling with his mother. Yes, she is almost only half his size. She still rules the place.

kitties!

Also, my instant messenger booted me off and puked on me. :P Silly thing.

awesome things today:

Got a book delivered from amazon that was in the bargain bin ... turns out it was there because the dustjacket was on upside down. It's perfectly fine and I got it for about 1/3 of the price. GO ME.

It's sunny, but not too hot.

Reasonable pain levels today.

Not a lot of stupid chores to do (sweep, put away laundry).

I found Good Bye Lenin! fanfic, which made me SQUEE SO hardcore. I love that movie.

Adopt one today! Adopt one today! Adopt one today!

LOL, and you know this because you could see him do all that?

Cats are funny. :D I love that pic of him snuggling with his mother. Awww...

Yay for the 2/3 off of a not-wrong book!

I could, seriously. I was watching him run around, but every time I got even remotely close to him he kept running. Doofus.

OMG link to the fanfic? Pretty please? I love that movie, too.

Also. Awwwwwww, kitty. ^_^

fanfic here. (http://www.yuletidetreasure.org/archive/56/mmmmmmgood.html) <3 It's one of my alltime faves. I was actually going to watch it again today, funnily enough, but I got doing other stuff instead. <3

Your cats are so cute (yeah, I really really love cats XD) (and my cat would stop at the stairs, because he's too lazy to go further than 2 metres!) <3

Thanks! <3 It's hard to believe Neko (Siamese) is Velvet's baby (Velvet is the black one). they look almost nothing alike, unless you can see their tails: Velvet has no tail at all and Neko's tail is about 1/4 to 1/3 the usual length. <3

so the father must be black! XD
My cat is the opposite: BIIIG, FAAT and he has a long tail. XD

I mean the father must be siamese.

I sometimes think Sean and Corgikid are attending the same school. On the first day of school here, they changed the start time and didn't tell anyone. They "announced" it by handing out flyers as parents drove up on the first day.

[identity profile] phinnia.livejournal.com 2008-09-04 12:08 am (UTC)(link)
... they are aware of these newfangled things like phones and email, yes?

[identity profile] pwcorgigirl.livejournal.com 2008-09-04 12:16 am (UTC)(link)
Apparently not. They also do not seem to have mastered posting anything on a website.

omg the adults link was GREAT!

This sounds lame as hell, but I mean it: Awesome days are awesome.

My instant messenger threw up on my too. It was an ugly mess. Anyway, yay for the kid being in school! And that book thing... I am jealous.

They are! It's nice to have them. <3

i found the adults thing more depressing than funny, because kids really are treated that way!

The adults-as-children link: HILARIOUS. LOVELY.

Goodbye Lenin! Is that the one with the woman who is fragile and they don't dare tell her that USSR fell?

[identity profile] phinnia.livejournal.com 2008-09-04 03:34 am (UTC)(link)
That the berlin wall fell, but yes. She was in a coma and woke up. <3 Such a wonderful movie. <3

Awww, your kitties are so cute! (And adventurous. :) )

And that adults-as-kids link was so funny. Thanks for sharing that!

SIMON RICH = LOLARIOUS. Have you read this?
