I hope I'm not the only one who thought it was cruel to do that to the cats.

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

I kind of want to try the cucumber thing on my cats, but I think the dog might be the one traumatized by the cucumber.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I'm glad that in general, my FB friends are rational on subjects like Syrian refugees. The problem is the assholes that my friends are friends with.

I think brief cucumber freakout (if it even happens, which I doubt) is fair payback for the 5AM wake up caterwauls to fill up an 80% full food bowl. I'm not planning to stash them around the place like landmines.

Well, don't be surprised when you find decapitated cucumbers in your beds.

Fair enough.

hip deep in pie

I noticed that most of the cats are eating and I wonder if a) they're not just so wrapped up in eating they don't hear anyone come up behind them, or b) they're more on guard when they are eating. I accidentally kicked a cat toy right by Oz while he was eating the other day and he nearly did a backflip.

Makes sense. With all the laptop cords and phone chargers around here, I have to assume that any snake-sensitivity in these cats is evolutionarily dead.

Dang, no kidding. I saw a comment on a post (I can't remember whose post anymore) that said "I think we should allow Syrian refugees in [to the US] who are Christian!" And you could tell this person thought that they were being the height of open-mindedness.

Unrelatedly, the city is totally stoked about Monday Night Football being here tonight. The news is covering tailgaters right now. Apparently nothing else is happening in the world other than Monday Night Football.
