Well, we've cracked open the cat! (We bought a very pink, cat-shaped bottle of a nice little Mosel Riesling. All weekend, we've been talking about how when we drank it we would be "cracking open the cat". ;D ) So I said it was time to yank the pussy out of the fridge and we thought Rich was gonna choke he was laughing so hard. Wait, you put your pussy in the refrigerator?? WHO LIKES COLD PUSSY??

Wait, you put your pussy in the refrigerator?? WHO LIKES COLD PUSSY?? Nothing quite like having this be the last thing you read before you head off to church. Well, nobody held a gun to my head. FlashForward comments if you haven't viewed it yet.And, while I find FlashForward a bit portenous and pretenious at times (I mean, really, could we get past the heavy slow music and long shots of a car pulling up to the heavily guarded prison and use those precious seconds to advance the story. Also and, while I'm totally unclear on why they think they have to work toward the future they've seen. [Lead character seems especially confused as he most definitely does NOT want his personal future to come true and yet he is slavishly tied to following the clues from his future clue-board ] Also, it appears that we possibly have at least 2 situations where the future visions have been disproved: sidekick guy who saw nothing vs his fiance who claims she saw him on the beach; AA sponsor guy who saw his daughter vs DNA tests of her remains. All that said, the final reveal this week was intriguing. Why crows? Why only crows (dead)? They have crows in Somalia (yeah, probably)? So that kid didn't faint back in 1991 -- so is he the 2nd guy who stayed awake in 2009? AND what was that big tall pipe which looked to be venting stuff into the air? If it was dispersing knock-out gas "they" certainly improved on the delivery system between 1991 and 2009 to make it world-wide with no obvious pipes. But even that wouldn't account for visions of the future. If I had to give advice to the writers I might tell them to focus on the story-telling and let us look for the deeper thinky thoughts about how "knowing" the future might impact our behavior, rather than attempting to shove the philosophical conundrums down our throats.

Erin - there is so much wrong with this statement, I don't know where to start. FIRST: Your name does not start with "M." It is Erin. Look at the name again. It starts with "E." SECOND: If you are in Vermont, you do not have to travel to Vermont. Therefore, you are not an "M" and you will not be Traveling, how therefore, can you become a "Traveling M." And frankly, I'm little disappointed that I had to explain this to you. But you're welcome and all is forgiven. I have a problem with my brain being missing... Braaaaaaiiiiiiiiiins! **nibbles on Erin's brain a bit** I think you should ramble and roam on over to Minnesota and visit me!

Yes, it is still dark outside. Yes, it is a Sunday morning and everybody else is still asleep. So unfair. First, Patches started rattling the door at 5:25, so I got up and provided food, which they both spurned. I guess that fancy expensive smelly prescription canned glop is getting old. Then The Husband was snoring and twitching, and then my nose commenced running, so I gave up on sleep. I'll try for a nap later. I have come to the conclusion that if you reduced Castle to just NF, his mom and daughter, you'd have a great sitcom. Not that I don't enjoy it in its present form, but think of the tremendous commercial possibilities... Then we watched Fringe. I am very much enjoying the show, but at the same time, I'm waiting for the inevitable disappointment. Either there will be premature cancellation (it is, after all, on Fox) or a total trainwreck by the writers. What can I say, I've been hurt before.

And where did you ramble last? Perhaps you left it there.I'm going to ramble out front and see if the paper is here, and if it's the correct paper. ETA: If Erin's brain is Missing, that makes her Missing-Brain!Erin, which begins with M. So there.

I wrote my first, very short and semi-slashy fan-fic in response to a challenge from Lola. It is in the Slash Fic recommendations, under a spoiler tag here.

Deep cleansing breaths...deeeeeeep cleansing breaths...
Nobody here, sorry, just the pain and the stupidity rampant on the planet is making me need to scream, only my throat hurts sufficiently already.
Julia, by the pain in my tum, I've taken the Ibuprofen, but by the pain in my shoulders-elbows-wrists-fingers, it's not bloody well working

I really screwed up on... Friday, I think?... haulling a 3cu ft bag of wet potting soil around because I was just fed to the teeth trying to get Anna to do what I need her to. Julia, stupid owie upper limbs, ouch

Friday, I think?... haulling a 3cu ft bag of wet potting soil around because I was just fed to the teeth trying to get Anna to do what I need her to. Julia, stupid owie upper limbs, ouch I don't feel like doing housework, and Emily is either allergied or coming down with the family cold, not to mention that her arm is still sore (but getting better quickly), so only the minimum is getting done this weekend. I'll get caught up eventually. Right now, I don't care if everything is dusty and covered with cat hair, I'm just too tired to bother. I did the marketing, I went to Michael's and Aaron Brothers and Joann's and took full advantage of their various 50%-off coupons, I reminded Paul to take Kitty to Staples* and gas up my car, and I made sure everybody had lunch. Oh, yes, and I cleaned up the tea collection and refilled the tins that needed refilled. What I'd really like to do is put the lenticular tree pictures into their frames and rearrange all the kitchen art. Maybe tomorrow while I'm doing the wash. The sushi cats picture would look cute above the neko clock, if there's space, but then I'd have to move Emily's nature photos. Hmmmm. Of course, if I have to drive Emily to school tomorrow morning, which might be a good idea if she's got a cold, all bets are off. I'm going to take a nap, that's what. But after I finish overseeing Kitty's thank-you note writing (which these days is a matter of providing materials and Daria's address). *Kitty bought an 8-gig flashdrive. For $18. Because her old 2-gig is almost full of images. Sheesh.
