Sorry about that. It's the deadline time of the month for the magazine, and I actually get paid to do that sort of work, so I'm sure you understand.
Not much to report on anyway, although I did clean my hardwood floors with Pledge, so now they're really slippery, and I've spent an unusual amount of time sliding around at night in my socks. The cats seem amazed by my behavior, because for them the slippery floors just mean they fall down quite a bit when they try to go around corners too fast. I've exploited this vulnerability by using a laser pointer to get them all riled up and chasing the little red dot. Then when they're at full speed, I just kind of turn off the dot, and they'll slide right into whatever's in front of them. Hours of entertainment with these floors, let me tell you.

Why hasn't the New Orleans Mardi Gras been cancelled this year?
Because the carnival float!

How's the Star Wars Galaxies working out for you? Have you thought about converting to World of Warcraft yet?
Posted by: simon at September 16, 2005 06:15 PMRyan, you are so evil ;) Um, nevermind what I just said, pretend I didn't write that...Will you take my 2 kitties for 6 months? My mom insists that she's not going to watch my cats for me when I go off to Basic. Sister won't either. You seem to like cats. Give me an address, I'll drop them off in a box with their names on it. They like the laser pointer!?
Posted by: Desult at September 19, 2005 12:18 AMDesult, although I personally would have no problem taking in your cats, history has shown that my cats hate every other animal on four legs that is not them. They even attacked their mother. They don't play well with others.
Posted by: Ryan at September 19, 2005 10:21 AMAh hell...at least I tried. It was fun to entertain the thought. Let me know I still have the boxes with their names on it. I have lots of catnip!
