Well this was supposed to be post of fic but *gah* so instead you get post of randomness of the humor and weird variety.

Driving home from work yesterday  I saw a guy on a motorcycle in full Scottish garb- the kilt, the sporran, everything.  I'm assuming he was on his way down to the Renaissance Festival, but the kilt was whipping around in the wind and I could only imagine the windburn he was going to get.

I thought it would be the weirdest thing I saw this week.  I was wrong.   Driving home from dropping daughter off this evening I stopped for a woman in a crosswalk walking what I thought was an ugly dog and carrying a teddy bear.  Nope.  She was carrying a little dog thing (not sure the breed but tiny and poofy and yippy) and walking a CAT.  A rather pissed off looking gray Persiany-looking cat on a green leash.

It was quite a weird thing to see.  Although, considering I got stuck working late because I spent 20 minutes explaining to someone one how 60 is MORE than 45 rather than less, maybe ending on a weird note is a good thing.

Sid is more about the ears than the chin. The ears need lots of skritches.

lots and lots and lots of skritches... *sighs* guess who's trapped under cat again?

Hee! Mine is in "Play with me play with me play with me" mode at the moment.

fuzzbutt is to lazy for that these days. If you twirt the ribbon about he'll bat at it for you. As a favor. because he knows it makes me happy. but he's not going to go out of his way to do that

how are you keeping sid occupied while typing?

We're playing "type a little, get up and give me things to chase until I get tired, rinse and repeat" at the moment. But laser pointers are good, if I'm really involved in something.

oooh, you're a sneaky one! why am i not surprised?

It works pretty well. He's napping again now. He's seven years old--he doesn't have as much chasing stamina at a stretch as he used to.

aww, poor boy. fuzzbutt's 13. His idea of stamina is staying awake the entire time there's a chance of snitching tuna

Sid'll be awake again in ten minutes, you watch. And aww about your boy. I bet he manages it. *g*

for tuna- or chicken, you bet! He's even woken up in time for other tasty delights. not surprisingly donuts are his favorites. he knows the sound of a bakery bag opening!

he's always terribly disappointed if it's muffins instead of donuts

How dare you buy something not cat-approved?

*hangs head in shame* I am a bad underling :(

You'd better buy some donuts soon. *nods*

[identity profile] donutsweeper.livejournal.com 2008-08-24 03:21 am (UTC)(link)
I'm liking this idea of yours...

[identity profile] donutsweeper.livejournal.com 2008-08-24 03:26 am (UTC)(link)
fits me to a tee- innocent all the way, right?

oh yes... no evil club cards for you at all...
