I had a cat who leaned.
Everybody dies, Tracey. Someone's carrying a bullet for you right now, doesn't even know it. The trick is to die of old age before it finds you.

Loki FLOPS. Seriously. All my cats seek contact in one way or another, but he does this rare fall-down thing that cracks me up. He falls on you.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Puppycat plays "Oops, I falled down" and loves to teach this game to Buffistas. I think she spent hours teaching billytea and was the happiest stupid cat ever.

Matt, you didn't like Indian food!? Crazy man! I know you enjoy food, and Indian food is delish!
Well, I like it now that I've encountered some that tasted good! Previous attempts were at best nothing special...kind of like Mexican food (edible, but nothing I'd seek out).

Ahrg, so possibly I have rats. Neighbor saw a burrow in her planters, I saw one running into the unused garage. Fuuuuuck.

Now tagless for your comfort.
So what are people doing this weekend?
I just gave a speech at a fundraiser in front of 165 people I barely know. It went ok.
Tomorrow, roller derby tryouts.
Sunday, drop dead from exhaustion.

That's what Pico used to do, but he'd end up leaning against me.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
This weekend will be spent as past weekends: praying for some letup from the heat so I can get some unpacking done. Also praying for some letup from the RSI, which had me in bed all day today.
Gonna try to scan in some pics now so I can get rid of some second string ephemera I have lying around.

I've decided to rename my children Frick and Frack, which is better than K's choice of lucifer and upchuck.
It's been a long, long, long day. I'm in a hotel bed which is good. But fuck. I'm tired.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
I hope I'm still swimming when I am 90, should I make it to 90:
LOVE her. One of my fencing mates is a 79-year-old dude who started fencing in high school. He took some time off (for a few decades) but came back to training as a "fuck cancer" move after they announced 70+ world championships right around the time he was diagnosed with lymphoma -- took (sometimes slow-motion) lessons right through chemo, and is currently the first alternate for the US world team. He's waiting on the news from USA Fencing and for his first grandson (who will be a 3rd-generation fencer, of course).
Cantankerous old sonofabitch, but I'm sure as hell hoping to be exactly the same way when I'm 79.
