I feel like I should say something about the oil spill crisis in the Gulf. But really, The Onion said it better than I ever could.
A coworker and I were talking about our kitties, and he was saying that he had a practically brand-new kitty bed that his cat doesn't use, and I was saying that my cat doesn't like the treats I got it, so we did a swap. :D Hopefully Jaime will like this bed more than Zeke did! Last night was another good night on the kitty/doggie front, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed. Jaime likes to sleep pressed up against me, whereas Talis is on and off about it. This morning I woke up with Talis sleeping near the foot of the bed and Jaime at my side. Then Jaime started licking my face with his rough little tongue (I can't get over how rough cat tongues are; I much prefer soft dog tongues). I have weird animals. My cat is in some ways a better dog than my dog is.
The internet cam arrived, but I realized that I did not quite think things through. It's not wireless, and where I want to put it, in the living/dining area where I can get a decent view of most of the shared areas (but not into any rooms), doesn't have an Internet port. Argh! I don't think I have an ethernet cable that stretches that far, and even if I did, it wouldn't be an ideal solution. >< So now I have to look into a wireless one.
After some waffling I've decided to get Stieg Larsson's trilogy that begins with The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. I can't tell whether it's in the teen genre or not, but I also don't want to read too much about it because I don't want to accidentally spoil myself on stuff. It's got huge buzz right now.
I think I mentioned that the lease on my car is ending soon, and I haven't yet decided if I want to turn it in (and get another car), or buy it. My dad is coming up in a couple of weeks to help me car hunt. I asked him to because I really, really hate dealing with car salespeople and the numbers don't really make sense to me, etc.
Sooo, I started Meg Cabot's Airhead. Fun, quick read like all her books, but I cannot believe she went there. If you've read it you know what I'm talking about.
