About Jen

Jen isn't quite sure when she lost her mind, but it is probably documented here on Meditatio. She blogs because the world needs her snark at all hours of the night... and she probably can't sleep anyway.

Such Beasts!

[+] This afternoon, I set my tomato soup and pita/hummus down on my desk and closed the door to my study because I thought it was cat-free. When I came back downstairs and opened the door, I saw a little black cat licking the hummus off of my pita. I tossed the pita (not a fan of consuming cat spit) and just had the soup. Edda came and snuggled with me half an hour later… and she still had garlic breath. Ick!

[+] Said a few minutes ago: “Freya, stop eating my phone jack!!!!” The little demon was chewing on my DSL jack.

Currently, the demonic one is sitting in cat-loaf position before Jon’s nail cross. Could she be undergoing exorcism?

Birthday Surgery

Jon’s birthday is today and his big present: 2 hours of surgery under general anesthesia to remove cysts from his head! It went well and after 4 hours of letting the anesthesia wear off, he came home.

Birthdays

Jon’s birthday is Thursday. I got his present yesterday.

My father-in-law’s birthday is in September. I just ordered some llama parts for him off of The Heifer Project. (OK… it should technically be “shares of a llama”, not llama parts. Then again, you probably started reading more closely at that point, didn’t you?)

The giving of donation gifts started when my mom sent me an article on Project Linus and asked if I was going to do anything for them. I offered to donate a blanket or two in her name as a birthday present. When I told my mother-in-law, she told me that she wanted a donation to The Heifer Project. My father-in-law asked for the same thing and asked that it be an animal with big brown eyes and soft fur. I love it when my birthday giving is tax-deductible!
