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

Stash booze in this AT-AT liquor cabinet before the Rebels come

It's made of wood (as liquor cabinets should be) and looks rather nice.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Because I was trying to picture a 120 pic album I'd want to hang off my keys and no.

You're a very astute woman.

Thanks--I think I'm going to go with it, Scrappy. I'll head up there after work.

Ticket bought for home, and time off requested. Business/first class (!!) and travel insurance, although I'll probably cancel that, since I don't think it covers other people's medical emergencies.

A guy who plays in the World Series isn't, well, chopped liver. But boy, that article I found about him made it sound like they should have had the janitor playing his position instead.

That's got to smart, that even 30 years after the fact somebody's writing this stuff about you. On the other hand, somebody's writing about you.

would that be a good idea? Buy my parents and my sister photo album keychains and load them up with family pics and other photos I've taken, as a stocking stuffer equivalent?

Ooooh.

What a great idea! I have a ton of old family photos that my dad scanned a few years back: this would be a really fun thing to do with them. Hmm, do I have the time between now & Christmas? Maybe.

How big are they, ita? Can you actually see the photos?

They're an inch and a half diagonal. I thought it was a decent compromise between visibility and portability, but you will have to select your pictures with a bit of care. I'm thinking of the photo keyring my mother and sister carry now (a photo sandwiched in plastic) and it's about the same size, and you can see three of us full body well enough to make it a decent souvenir.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I would guess it depends on the dpi or whatever in the frame. I have a several-years-old iPod mini, and the video clarity is shockingly good. Although I guess it's two inches.

I really like the idea of giving one to my Mom, as something really portable that requires no effort or understanding on her part.

Hey, Sox! I'll shoot you an e-mail momentarily! Actually, Amy, too, with address and such.

Thrive to spite them

So New Kitten is in the house. Dean is not quite sure about what is going on, but so far no hissing. I know I should probably keep them completely separate for a few days but I'm going to wing this.
