We have cats grooming each other! One week and two days. Damn, that was amazingly fast. ALSO! And more importantly! Witness the mega-sale at Ellen Million, which includes a lot of my stuff at low, low, discount prices! Plus there’s a new Wombat Droppings up.

*sigh* I don’t even WEAR perfume! Still, okay, maybe I would if I found some I like. And the imp thing sounds like a really easy way to try them out–mind you, if I found one that I liked, I’d probably stick to it, I’m not really into collecting odors, per se. (I don’t burn […]
Okay. I have run into this tangentially a zillion times, now I gotta ask… What the heck is this BPAL thing? I mean, I don’t even WEAR perfume, but I admit, the copy for the Mr. Jacquel stuff–embalming spices! Who doesn’t want to smell like embalming spices!?–makes me twitch. But it seems like there’s more […]
So I’m taking a shower, and I have completed all of the standard grooming tasks, and try this new exfoliating goop that I picked up. In my on-going commitment to try and look good–after all, if you look good, you feel good, and sooner or later somebody’s bound to notice, right?–I started using various such […]

Ladies and gentlemen, I come before you in triumph. Today, I made scrambled eggs. With cheese. Go ahead, laugh. I know. Doesn’t sound like much. But I have never scrambled an egg in my entire life, and it was in the spirit of deranged adventure that I decided to do something with all those eggs […]
It’s snowing here. I canceled my plans to go see a movie–being of Minnesotan extraction, I can drive in anything short of glaze ice, but I fear the other drivers, who once shut down the entire city for fear of a single snowflake sighted somewhere over Cary–and planted myself on the couch. Snow falling outside, […]
Woke up this morning wondering vaguely why my hipbones felt dislocated.* I looked down and discovered that both cats were asleep between my legs. Angus had snuggled down between my knees and Ben was stretched out and partially draped over my right shin. As they are both rather large cats, in order to achieve domestic […]
