It’s been a long 14 hours.

Do you think your neighborhood is quite? I did until I had over night guests and I realized I live in Grand Central Station! It never stops. Motorcycles, loud car stereos, ambulance, fire police sirens all night long!, people outside chatting, a train going through, dogs barking - Akita's do yap! I thought they were too big to yap and they do. For hours.

I don’t even hear those things anymore and I don’t think it really bothered my parents but I was up all night listening to all the damn sound. I nearly jumped out of my skin when The Kitty knocked over a plastic thing in the bathroom. Kitty knocks that over all the time , but not at 2:30 am when I have guests in the house! It sounded like a bomb going off.

This weekend I finally removed all the taped-from-TV tapes that I made. I haven’t watched them since I made them and the shows are now available in syndication should I want to watch them, and I don’t do that very often, so I decided that it was time for them to go hide somewhere. I also wanted to be able to access my DVDs more easily. Mission Accomplished.

Kitty has ignored the shelves where the tapes and DVDs live. He wasn’t even around when I did the switch over but he now knows the shelves are not just a part of the wall and he wants to explore them. I store a lot of things on those shelves, breakable things I have to keep out of his way. All night long I kept waiting for him to take the whole thing over



Along with hosting the fam and clearing a shelf I also finally went and picked out this years Bunny Drive bunnies. I was able to get two less than completely satisfactory bunnies for about what I would have paid for one completely satisfactory bunny. I.E, too gender specific, thus the having to buy two, the ribbons around their little bunny necks...



It was hard finding two I didn't hate. Every other bunny either had Jesus Saves embroidered on their little bunny chests or were dressed like little bunny para-troopers and carrying guns. I don't think bunny para-troopers or bunny born agains really honor either group with much respect. "HI! you're putting your life at risk! Here have a bunny wearing a camo tee-shirt and holding an AK-47! Thank you for your sacrifice!!, or "HI! you are a true believer! Here is a your belief system reduced to a slogan on a stuffed animal!! Happy Resurrection Of Your Lord!! While I was there in Plasticsloganland I also opted for some new plastic flowers. The plastic Irisi
