wow, that is one zen cat. i WISH i could do that to mine. even bast, while not excessively intimidated, prefers to stay on the opposite side of the room. she won't move until i get quite close, but when she does move she moves all the way over. and the bug, as i've mentioned, has actually developed faster-than-light travel specifically for such critical situations as me dragging the vacuum out.

i've seriously contemplated getting permanent laser hair-removal done on both of them and making them sweaters for the wintertime because they really produce unreasonable amounts of fur (which i then have to vacuum up, and remove from every single article of clothing before going out...), it's like their only raison d'être is to be fur-producing machines. i think it's part of the feline plot for world domination. the only problem is that i've *seen* those hairless cats (i have a friend who has some) and they look like some kind of alien reptile. brrrr. seriously, it's enough to give you nightmares. so a robo-vacuum might be the next best thing.

Back when I spent more time in court, I always wore black suits. I like black suits. That was fine when I only had the one black cat ... but when I got a white cat, the judge was forever teasing me about all the white cat hair on my nice black suits.

Right now I'm looking for my boss (soon to be ex-boss) for the final signature before I walk out the door for good. All my future posts will be from home.

oh god. tell me about. most of my clothes are black too. but some of the mare other colors. the problem is i have one black cat who mysteriously has pale grey under fur (but i swear she's black when you look at ther), and another cat who is half grey and half white. so there is no safe color, whatever i wear. it's like they planned it that way.

just finished sending "reminders" to clients who owe me money. by far my favorite part of working freelance. :ironymark:

hopefully these reminders will be followed by checks within the week. sending checks to the bank : my *other* favorite part of working freelance. :absolutesinceritymark:

RickyMaveety · 09-03-2008, 01:42 PM

And, I'm taking a break after about one hour of lawn mowing. I'll head back in after I've had a soda and cooled down a bit.

I ran through my first tank of gas ... so I took that as a hint that it was break time.

nekokami · 09-03-2008, 01:43 PM

Anticipating with the utmost pleasure :ironymark: a meeting in 15 minutes with someone who heads a committee that supposedly was to have been giving me "direction" regarding the website that consumes my life. Who hasn't had the time of day for me for over a year. I'd write more, but then I'd have to switch to the "Vent and Rant" thread.

Right now, I'm cooking some minute steaks, covered in Reggae Reggae sauce.
Yum!

Sorry ... but that does not sound like a "yum" to me. Let me know when you get to the chocolate.

I finished mowing the lawn .... posted a bunch of stuff here ... and now, here it is almost 4:00 in the afternoon, and I haven't even finished my morning chores. Good grief.

I think this will be the last post of the day.

nekokami · 09-03-2008, 05:08 PM

Taking a short breather after hacking at CSS for much of the afternoon.

Style sheets?? Eewwww. Gack. I think I'd actually prefer cleaning out the litter boxes ... which is what I just finished doing (along with the rest of my "morning" chores), and which is why I'm baaaaack.

At least until I finish dinner, feed the cats, check on the dogs, and then drive out to get my mail and see what Netflix sent me today.

NetSlut · 09-03-2008, 06:13 PM

I have to say, the steaks were really yummy. But! I do now have chocolate! Anyone want a piece?

oh wow, we are really different people, me and you. of course some have equated enjoying coding css with a perversion, so maybe i'm the crazy one of the two of us.

YES !! and you will soon learn that that question, around here, leads to your chocolate supply decreasing at an alarming rate.
