A cat and yarn! I've never played with a cat and yarn, but it's super-funny! Just like the stereotype!

I can't let my cat play with yarn. As soon as she gets near it she quickly bites off a piece and tries to swallow it. Yesterday, while I was crocheting, she got a hold of a piece and I had to chase her down and grab it away before she swallowed it.

Rubber bands are even worse. My cat can find one in a room like she has radar for it! She will bite it into pieces and swallow them. We have banned them from our house. :)

The Situation and Sarah Palin's daughter promote abstinence and safe sex. One got pregnant at sixteen and the other gets his d*ck wet at every possible opportunity. I love it.

Wow. I guess we're lucky - Petra's not interested in eating them, she just chases it briefly while it's moving. Simon (the dog in my Day in a Life post) is more who you gotta worry about. Petra hunts and kills bugs, and then looses interest, so Simon comes along after her and cleans it up.

Hehe, my cat Yoyo is a major bug eater. This week she has eaten two flies and a spider. Good thing we don't have any poisonous spiders in this area.

This was ridiculous enough that I almost brought it up at work, and did bring it up later with a different group of non-work people. Like... what the hell?

The real problem is that she won't kill a bug that she finds too weird. Which means she leaves all the really big spiders to roam the house at will.

I normally ignore youtube comments because they're stupid and pointless, but I youtubed this one song, expanded the field to see the lyrics, and so looked down towards the comments area. I don't know why, maybe because I needed to relieve some pressure, I laughed at this:

"Lol, my girlfriend caught me listening to this song. I listen to mostly alternative and a little metal. She looked at me like she caught me having sex with a man. I was like "I don't give a f**k." I like this song."

I met with a professor today and for the first 5 minutes I could not stop mentally laughing because his research interests match a (well-known) science fiction author's REALLY CLOSELY and so it was kind of hilarious. Like, is he aware of this? And while we were making jokes & stuff, but like, how do you ask someone whose grants you want to work on--LOL have you read so-and-so? he is way into this stuff.

Yeah.

I was just sitting at my desk, doing data entry, when out of NOWHERE I suddenly remembered the scene in Freaks and Geeks when Nick (Jason Segel) sings "Lady" by the Styx to Lindsey. And it is SO adorable and awkward and cringe-worthy and HYSTERICAL. I can't stop laughing, just from the memory of it.
you snooze, you lose
well I have snozzed and lost
I'm pushing through
I'll disregard the cost
I hear the bells
so fascinating and
I'll slug it out
I'm sick of waiting
and I can
hear the bells are
ringing joyful and triumphant

One of the running jokes with which I routinely irritate my friends and family comes up every time anyone discusses their plans for their mortal remains after their death. I always claim that I intend to have my corpse taxidermied and arranged in a heroic pose — possibly holding a sword, definitely naked — and that whoever wants to inherit my vast fortune will be required to place me somewhere prominent in their home. Now, this is all good fun (or at least it will be until my will is unsealed), but it did make my mind go someplace particularly grim upon seeing a typical Pluggers man-animal in a storefront taxidermist.

I own the one spectacular season of Freaks and Geeks. Why do the good shows get canceled? They have been playing it on IFC recently. So, so funny.

I listen to music whenever I can at work, which is basically whenever there are no patrons around. I've had one song in particular on repeat all day; I do this on occasion with various songs, repeating it until I'm sick of it.

This afternoon, just before closing, my coworker tells me she has this song stuck in her head and am I familiar with [title] by [artist]?

:D

Yep...


I wonder if she knew it was my fault that song was in her head and was passively alerting me to this or what. I do feel a little bad for having it loud enough to be recognizable but mostly I just laughed.

That's my view on Firefly. Sometimes I think it's actually better because they knew it was getting canceled and were forced to focus on important/best stories.

I was rather attracted to him after that and was at work when I read it, so instead of laughing hysterically, I settled for shaking while silently laughing hysterically.

Now, if someone did that to me (and I was dumb enough not to get the hint), I'd be less amused.
