I got many lovely, lovely prezzies yesterday (and many thanks for all the good wishes) but the one that made me giggle the most was this one: Come to the Dark Side — We have cookies. No, seriously. There were then several inappropriate jokes made involving the phrase “Yoda cookies.”

It was 38F when I got up this morning. I realize that’s practically balmy for some of you, but for us down here, it’s effin’ cold. Some highlights from my weekend: Saturday morning, the phone rings.

I can’t even begin to describe all the stuff they had, but the thing that impressed me most were the assortment of creepy Victorian portraits on the [...]

I’m critter-sitting for Boy and Girl this weekend. Dog critter needs two pills in the mornings and evenings. Pill delivery is accomplished by scooping out a spoonful of peanut butter, then sticking the pills in the middle. There are two major benefits to this.
