Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Glad you know how to fall well, sara. It's a good skill to have. I think I lost it.

Laundry washing now, the dress soaked up a fair amount.

Silver lining is free soap? Yeah, not so much.

Thrive to spite them

I did't think about weighing the cats on a kitchen scale. I just stand on the scale holding one of them and then weigh myself without the cat.

The one people scale I have is pretty old and suspect. And since MK has gotten so small and off the insulin for a couple weeks, I really need to track losses of under a pound. Luckily, the largest kitchen scale at Target is 11 lbs. Perfect. He was a lb higher at the vet's at intake, but I'm going to attribute that diff to different scales and establish this as the household baseline.

My scale is nowhere near accurate enough. Best I hope for with my scale is a five pound range when I weigh myself.

Good plan. It's not the exact number so much as the general trend information that I end up needing.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I am so totally putting the kitten in a bowl on the kitchen scale just as soon as he gets here. Just because I can.

Be prepared for a seriously judging look. MK is SOOO laid back. But this was beyond his ken.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I am on vacation! I still have several hours of stuff to do, like pack, and I have to be up at 4:30, and the cat sitter forgot to tell me how much I should leave her, but still, Vacation!

And I get to see Cashmere and Plei tomorrow!

Hey, where's a good place for me to buy a less small than small black leather backpack I can use for work and around?

Wilson's leather, maybe?

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Getting back to karate was great. Only did 30 minutes, but it was a good workout.

Then I ran home to shower and pretty up for my date.

We met at a brewery and I actually drank a beer (very rare event for me). We hit it off well but I wasn't sure if he was into me. We just had our beers and then got back to our cars before the meters ran out. I got a hug good bye and started the drive home feeling bummed that we didn't even have dinner and there was no mention of "talk to you later.

To drown my sorrows, I met up with K-Bug for sushi. As we sat down, I got a text from the guy. We exchanged a few messages that ended with me telling him to have a sweaty good time (he was heading off to work out). So, that is a good sign, right?
