Black Doggerel

OW OW OW STOP CLIMBING MY LEGS YOU LITTLE SHARP CLAWED BASTARDS!!!!

Shona is sitting on top of my hard drive.

Spike and the kittens have a new "let's drive Cassie nuts" game: knocking away the wedge of video cassettes that holds the bedroom door open so that she's shut out and 1-4 kittens are shut in. She doesn't stay shut out for long; she yells "MROWWWWWW!!!!" at me till I go wedge it in again. I find I can tell her "help me NOW!" noise from her "I feel like making loud noises at you" noises instantly; so can the dogs.

My mother phoned me today to tell me that her friend's mother died, but she phoned in mid-kitten-zoomies. I had to keep interrupting the conversation with OMGSTOPTHAT!

Elda just knocked my foot powder off the bedside dogcrate and under the couch, where it's unreachable until a kitten goes in and rolls it out (I did recover a Cadbury's caramel egg that I'd been trying to hook out with the broom for weeks that way, though. Score!)

I was astonished to learn today that the kittens will not only eat raw green tripe, they like it better than minced chicken or turkey.

The dogs' water bowl got knocked over twice today and Callette knocked a stack of books down between the other bedside dogcrate and the wall and I have no idea if I'll be able to get them out.

Shona's just climbed onto my keyboard. 000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000222222222222222222222222222222222222222222222 ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

I'm gonna miss the lil' fuckers when they're gone...

Happy now, if somewhat wired!

Have been faffing with my layout, too, since it was high time I took advantage of my lovely happy shiny paid account birthday present - please, please look at it and give me feedback and suggestions and stuff, especially those of you who have custom layouts yourselves or know how to work them...

Oooh, and I can do tags now, too - I couldn't with the previous layout, the old system doesn't support them. That'll be a fun thing to do next time I'm in one of my obsessive moods. Heh.
