You know how I know God loves us and wants us to be happy? \*\* Dark chocolate Reese’s.\*\* A chorus of angels sings whenever you find one of these. The weather guys are tentatively calling for snow tomorrow night, although I notice they’ve changed their predictions about 437 times, 18 of which have happened in the last hour. I have made my prediction that the first snow that actually leaves anything worth anything (1" or more) will be Thanksgiving week. I’m calling for a snowy winter in the Blue Ridge because my snowbringer senses are a-buzzin’. According to a nice lady I met who lives in Hendo, the Blizzard of '93 that people are still talking about came right after a summer just like this past one. Blizzard of '14. I’m calling it, folks. ---

Supper was good - I like cod. Knittage will ensue soon. Another Moanday down the tubes. 😃 ---

Death chikin has been ingested. OYKW had to leave cause he’s got a lot of paperirk stuff to catch up on, poor thing. Luckily he can do it from his place. Heck, he could do it at da cave but I understand the need to be alone to concentrate. Poor baby. **Shoe** the bacon does not crisp but it does render. It’s chewy but nummy. I made it cause it’s good. It is, IMHO much better with dark meat than white meat. I’m sure the recipe could be cut down easily but when I make it there’s enough for a couple of meals which I like. **Spaz** as long as you keep the snow _up there_ I guess it’ll be ok. **Midget** are you studyin’ cat anatomy in skool? 😃 **$2.99** hope you have a good month out on the boat. Come play some while you’re out there. Make sure there’s plenty of tp! **Nettie** kitty party mix for real? ---

Cat anatomy would be more useful to do in school than playing stupid card games, that’s for sure. 😉 ETA: The card game we played today was called “Polemics.” Couldn’t find it on google. I looked up “polemics cards” and Google gave me results for “Pokemon cards.” :eyeroll: ---

Good [gad](http://www.friskies.com/Cat-Food/Cat-Treats/Party-Mix-Beachside-Crunch). Next they will be wanting little umbrellas in their iced water bowl. ---

The Princess probably would enjoy a new toy. She drinks by dipping a paw in the water, then licking it off. Then she gets annoyed because her water gets dirty. ---

Nine different varieties of the _same_ kitty treat? Would the kitty even know the difference? Weird! ---

Some cats do have flavor preferences, and I’m pretty sure our previous cat could read labels. ---

Got through most of my errands today, if not all of my to do list. We’re trying to decide what to do for dinner and nobody has the energy to have an opinion. I think we all want to go out to eat, but we’ve done that too many times lately. ---

Finally I’ve made it to and through the MMP! We’re a chatty bunch today. I know you’ve all been eagerly awaiting my big, exciting news. Right? Right??? :crickets: Well, anyways… RT gave me my graduation present a little early this weekend. He gave me an iPad! :D:D I am so excited, impressed, beside myself that you just wouldn’t hardly believe it. I am completely amazed and overwhelmed by this kind and wonderful human being who has been sent my way. ---

Good morning! We’ve got a couple inches of snow on the ground here. I’d heard rumors, but I was surprised when I saw it. It looks very pretty from my window, but I’m not sure how I’m going to feel in a couple of minutes when I have to go out and clean off my car! ---

> [@VunderBob](#): > > **Bunz** , iPads are Teh Kewl, but I need another program of characters from you. Who is RT? RT is my boyfriend. RT stands for Roaming Troubadour. Roaming because he’s an OTR truck driver. Troubadour because he could outsing any contestant ever on American Idol or any other one of those shows (and yes, I’m biased, but he really is that good 🙂 ). ---
