Although it feels like the apex of dorkness to quote a mailing list this was too good to leave alone:

Only in this country do you find a culture obsessed with a past in which it was obsessed with the future.

So true. What’s really weird is I’ve had the sim version of these fridges for years.

You are Lawrence Ferlinghetti! Modern rebel and
owner and proprietor of the City Lights
Bookstore in San Francisco, Lawrence
Ferlinghetti is known for his playful tone and
innovative style. He is MY favorite poet, and
the works of lawrence are always eye-opening
socio-cultural critiques in a light-hearted
tone. He is recognized as one of the most
influential poets of the beat era.

Which famous poet are you? (pictures and many outcomes)

We’re going to a picnic today. Our friend Jocelyn is having a picnic at a park near her apartment with a bunch of fellow law students. We’re not sure if dogs are allowed but we’re bringing Winter anyway. We figure we’ll have plenty of legal advisors if someone has a problem with her lol.

Having been loosely dieting for about eight months now I haven’t a clue what to bring. So Cody came up with the idea to bring green chile tortilla pinwheels. I’ve had these before at parties thrown by his aunts and mom. They’re pretty tasty and we can even make a low-fat version too!

As any owner of indoor cats will attest, it’s all about the kitty litter. What holds it, where it goes, the mysterious watermark (so to speak) where beloved fluffytuff decides that the box is too filthy for her dainty paws. I think the most cats I ever lived with at one time was five. My usual three suspects and two belonging to my roommate. So there’s been no shortage of cat shit in my life.

I’m usually willing to try something new if I think it might make things easier. There are two lesser-known products I bought for Winter on a whim and I’m very glad I did.

Zola the hedgehog managed to tube around and push all her blankets against her downstairs water bottle so the entire recently refilled water bottle dripped out into the bedding. I’m glad I just use sherry liners it was much easier to clean up than cellsorb or carefresh would have been. But it was very stinky and the poop had, um, reconstituted. Yick.

I don’t consider myself an authority on a lot of things. Most of the time I’m just talking crap. But I spend a lot of time and money dealing with pet products so I thought I’d include my take on the best and worst of them so maybe some poor soul can save herself some time and money.

It occurred to me the other day that literally is the new inconceivable.

“You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.”
