I have my last appointment with my hand surgeon today at 4:15. I am excited about this for several reasons:
- I really, really want to ride Thunder again.
- I am in the middle of a delicious book, and waiting in the doctor’s office provides me with ample time to read and yet not feel guilty about it
- On top of making dinner, I’m baking coffee cake muffins and crostini and throwing together a large salad tonight. (We’re having dinner with friends tomorrow night and I’m in charge of appetizers and salad.)
So here’s to hoping that my doctor’s appointment is speedycakes so I can do some major work in my kitchen tonight before I have to run back down to DTS to pick Joey up from Hebrew, which ends at 6:30. Sometimes we think it would be nice to have two cars again…but then we remember how amazingly cheap it is to have one (paid off even!) riceburner for a car and we shake our heads and ask ourselves what we were thinking.
Henry gets all bent out of shape when I show up earlier than normal, though. It interrupts his napping cycle and throws off his groove…what I wouldn’t give to be a dog! (You should see him on the weekends. On Saturdays he gets positively cranky due to nap interruption. Brat.)
On a totally unrelated note, I’m trying to get Joey to buy me one of these. (I need a British Blue right now, Joey. Immediately. Or I will die and then who will feed you or fold your socks?! )
And look how fancy they look when they’re all grown up? Seriously, how can you resist that?




I’ll kitteh sit for you if you get one.
They’re amazing.
The only thing worse than indoor dogs (note I said “indoor dogs” – I love dogs – but I like them outside in the backyard) are cats. I really might have to re-consider our friendship if you get a cat and Henry continues to jump on me. Although, if you MUST get a cat – those do like a prettier version of the species!
I almost burst out with a spontaneous “AWWWW!” at my desk. Those putty tats make me miss the Russian blue my father had when I was growing up, Jasmine. *sniff* I miss having a cat!!
Kitties!!! You should totally get one … and if you ever go out of town, we’ll totally watch ‘em for you!
If you get a cat, I will disown you. Doug Laird is my father. The End.
Hey Girl!! I want one too!! I will be so excited for you if get one and I will have to come over and play with it
Miss you!
NEED or WANT? Last I heard you NEEDED a bunny rabbit? Although a kitty would be better than a rabbit.
