Whatev! I email you!
We'll be at Cougar Mountain Zoo this Sunday afternoon. It's very small and very up-close-and-personal. One of the tigers is named Taj!
I've said it before: invite us over any weekend morning or afternoon, we'll be there.
P.S. You still have out good cocktail recipe book and season 1 of Doctor Who.
lankakitten:
Har de har har.
I want my shit back.

We will be at Cougar Mountain Zoo this weekend as well. I'll let you know if it's Saturday or Sunday.

Just found out my employer is going under. Bad times in the StrongMad household.

Can I just say how much I love being in a town where I can pick up a free print copy of The Onion out of a newspaper box? It makes any subway ride tolerable.

I saw Dr. StrongMad on Wednesday. When I showed up she was sitting down and I thought she looked the same. But when she got up to pee: yowza! Tummy and boobs!

Speaking of which, new best StrongMad quote ever: "Boobs. Is there anything they can't do?"

What time is the appointment on Tuesday?
Miss you!
merritt:
Happy Father's Day, dude smile

... and today I had a giant pewter plate fall on me and break my nose. So I guess you could say moving is going pretty well.

Premeditated domestic violence, maybe? Nah, she'd never do something like that ... during the move.

I don't currently have the words to begin to describe the emotions of the past few days. I'll work on it, though. But don't worry, the tough stuff is temporary and the good stuff is permanent.

The movers are moving today. That has to be a great relief.

Nothing like painting ceilings for about eight hours the day before your birthday to make sure you wake up feeling every one of your 39 years ...

Day 3 without heat. It's 41 degrees in my house. If this $#&@ furnace guy doesn't show up in the next five minutes, I'm going to start burning the furniture.

I hope when the furnace guy finally showed up, you burned him.

The hardware store can be thrilling.

The highlight of my Fourth is a "Dateline: To Catch a Predator" marathon currently running on MSNBC. Have you seen this? I have been fascinated by this series since they started it. If they had a To Catch a Predator Channel (TCAPTV), I think I would watch it all day. These guys are unbelievable.

Which isn't shocking.

Thanks so much to everyone for your good thoughts and kind words. It's been a rough few days, but I'm hanging in there.

Jake was fine until Thursday, but that morning he couldn't stand up and was having trouble breathing. We took him to the vet and she said he was bleeding internally, and that while we could have done a bunch of tests to...

There was many a celebration.

I'm so sorry to hear about Jake. I feel kinda like I knew him, you know? I've even told stories to my dog-loving friends about how fast he could make a whole meatloaf disappear.

I hope you are getting lots of hugs. I would give you the biggest hug ever if I could.

I don't know where eggs go out of their cages. I just know that if they're out of their cartons and I put one on the counter, they roll away a lot, causing a big ol' mess.
stella_marie:
