Why does TVGuide.com have breaking news?
That would make sense if a sporting event ran long and some TV shows were going to be delayed.
Or to alert you in a timely fashion that the penguin on top of your telly was about to explode.
And the thing is, I like my evil like I like my men: evil. You know, straight up, black hat, tied to the train tracks, soon my electro-ray will destroy metropolis BAD.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
As someone who's telly is surrounded by penguins, that is a disturbing thought.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
That is why I have the penguins about my TV cleverly rigged NOT to explode.

So when I put away boxes yesterday, I cleared off the hearth of the fireplace [link] (all full up now!) And randomly tossed a pillow there. It's Devi's favorite spot now. It's funny to see her curled up in the nook.

I have a freestanding gas fireplace. Of course, the cats like to sleep on it when it's off, but the one dumb, fluffy cat goes back to it after I have lifted her off and turned it on. I guess it's not too hot for her for a few minutes, but it wigs me out to see her there above the flames.

I was just wondering how you were doing, Dana.

Mine is a nonworking one. Capped gas line, no venting. Proof: [link]

I really need to work on the mortar on that thing. It's less obvious than in the photo.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
We were at dinner when the game started, and I saw most of the first quarter. Then, of course, I missed most of the action while grocery shopping. But I'm home now. And fortified by a cosmo.
