Lazy Day in SoCal

Posted on by

After beating myself to a pulp last night (and pulling various joints out of place in my hands and legs) while walking to and from the store, I slept until noon today, got In n’ Out (which is just soooooo good for me), and went to my m-i-l’s favorite thrift shop.Â? Lots of lovely clothes — if only I was built normally and not like my dad.Â? They had some truly hideous things which my m-i-l had me try on for fun.Â? (The most interesting: the ankle-length leather skirt — I think the leather looked better on the cow.)

Now that I’ve worked the tension out of my in-laws’ whalebone tabby, I’m going to go swim.Â? Oh yes… my in-laws’ tabby patch cat decided to attack my hair as I was sitting up from petting her.Â? Tabby patches are all the same!

(Speaking of such things, I called my cat sitter in Montana for a “neurotic mommy update” and my monsters are doing fine.)

Updates

A few random things:

[+] A blessed World Communion Day to you all! May it be a reminder that our Body spans the earth and not just the borders of the USA.

[+] The wedding yesterday was tasteful — even the pranks. (If you knew the groom, you’d know that the wedding had to involve at least one prank.) The only problem: the food had a fight with my stomach and my stomach won so I spent half the night praying to the porcelain god while the food retreated upwards from the battle.

[+] Ginger Altoids are the best thing on earth next to sliced bread.

[+] Someone plowed into us in the church parking lot this morning. Thankfully, the only damage was the driver’s side mirror being knocked a couple inches off-kilter.

[+] The nursing facility where Jon’s grandfather is has a tabby patch kitty with creme brulÃ?e markings. His name is Howie and he likes me. 🙂 He remembered me from the visit last night and I played with him for a good hour today while Jon and his grandfather visited.

Off I go to play Text Twist with my in-laws!
