Waiting for the Cookies to Cool
Yeah, I know. Nothing for a month, then overwhelming drek. I found this while waiting for my cardamom cookies to cool enough to glaze; I just hope I can embed it on Dear Diary:

Brown Bud Magnolias
If one wishes to crush the spirit of the soul that longs for spring, perhaps the best way is to plant magnolia trees north of the Mason-Dixon line. Plump, pink buds adorned the trees lining the road into town last week. The little star magnolia trees along the thoroughfare had already started to bloom, and…
At the risk of boring you …
Yup, it’s about the dishes again. Hopefully this pitiful saga is reaching a resolution. The Professor swore he was going to be better about the dishes after the shattered plates incident. I know I’m ruining the surprise ending by saying this, but like a fool I took him at his word. Last night I made…
Perspective on my job.
No, candle, my job is not nearly as heinous as J’s. That doesn’t necessarily mean I’m here for the long haul though. And regardless of whether or not I stick it out at the current job, I’m writing. J did give me a good idea to follow up on though. I’ve been concerned that, if…
Freakus controlus
In his updates of today, AussieDeafMan speaks of researching control freaks. My own observations of Freakus controlus may be of some limited use. Control freaks come in several different subspecies. I have had the dubious pleasure of having four of these subspecies competing for space within my own work environment. They seldom herd together, although…
Oh. My.
I was getting ready to leave the office tonight when the phone rang. It was somebody who works with my state’s APHIS (Animal and Plant Health Inspection Services) branch of the USDA. This person had run a long term study at our facility, and we’d gotten to be friends while she was here. It seems…
Classless
Last evening was a madhouse. I didn’t get out of work until 4:30 for my 5:00 dentist appointment. Fortunately there was little traffic, so I wasn’t late. However…. My longer-time readers (you masochists know who you are) will recall my confession of several years back, when I made my first dental appointment in a long…
Welcome back to the big wide world!
Hope the bugs are dead dead dead and gone gone gone.
Nasty little creeps.
Oh, she does look fetching in her lilac sweater!
I’m glad she’s able to enjoy some freedom again. And fingers crossed for good results from cultures.
Awwww. For a fart cloud, she looks awfully cute in that sweater!
I guess the HSUS needs money to donate to those celebrities they recruit for their ads. *snort*
Go, little gray kitty! Ditch that infection!!!!!
I agree with writes_stuff. I would be even more outraged if I didn’t like Sarah MacLachlan and if they paid her. (Did I spell her name right?) I really have no idea if they do.
Speaking of spelling, I think you mean the Humane Society, not the Humans Society. ;o) Yeah, it’s obvious; but I was confused at the beginning so I thought I’d give you the opportunity to edit it before someone else got here. :o)
I will make absolutely certain that any donations I make, or friends make, will go to our local canine or feline rescue organizations! Thanks for the info! (And for the record, every time I see that commercial with the pathetic looking animals and that damnable Sarah McLachlan song, I mute it and purposefully look away! I despise that bit of audio-visual mammalian horror show. It’s like looking into an open, festering wound.)
I <3 SLFC’s new sweater, too. Lavender is her color!
OMG on the video. Evil has officially migrated over to your cat. Those eyes!!! *gasps in horror*
that was hilariously funny!!! thanks for making me laugh!!!
