3. Hi bleev!
Sometimes I feel like having the "I really care about this country" piece of my brain removed. Caring can suck a lot. x(

7. Happy Friday everyone
I'm livid -- got a call today from someone who heard that Gary Peters (the Dem the DCCC supported against Nancy) may be voting no. He's still reading the bill and hasn't decided yet. Well, I hate to say it, folks, you got what you voted for. It could have been different if you'd let Nancy finish the job she started in 2006.

They seem to be doing okay, with the expected ups and downs. Cassie is a strong little girl.

She sends hugs back to everyone.

43. Which part of her? Face or rear?
Edited on Fri Nov-06-09 08:42 PM by Berry Cool
When Bella gets tired of being ignored, she tends to say it by showing me her anus. You know, just in case I forgot she has one.

The good news: I taught her to sit up by feeding her treats as a reward.

Treats can wait until I'm awake, dammit! x(

55. Oh, I get that too. And the famous sniff at my mouth and nose
to determine whether I'm still breathing and, thus, capable of waking up and feeding her.

59. The late, great Miss Kitty, The Queen of the Universe, used to do
that to me. She'd put her mouth right up to mine, breathe hard, and purr until I woke up.

Tom Lehrer is a thread through my life too. I couldn't take German lit class without thinking of "Alma," about Alma Mahler Gropius Werfel, who inspired poets, and married and/or took as lovers various creative men of Europe.
