"There is also a strong possibility that I will remember your pet's name, but not yours. Please, someone tell me I am not alone!"

You are not alone! I have neighbors that I have known for about ten years... Their dog passed away about five years ago, but I still refer to them as "Dusty's Mommy and Daddy'!

[naamah_darling]

Uh-huh! Exactly!

The woman across the street is "Duke's mom" even though he died a while back.

When I think about it, it's not that people are less memorable than pets; it's that pets have names that reflect who they are much more often than people do. I mean, a friend has a corgi named Underfoot. How perfect is that? Tell me when was the last time you met a person with a name that great?

My brother had a pair of friends on college known as "Kan-Dan" and "Tran-Dan" because one was from Kansas and one was a transfer student. Unfortunately for the second, this sometimes got shortened to "Kanny" and "Tranny."

Ha ha ha ha ha! Love the icon. *G*

And I know the feeling about Christmas this year. I got my tree up last night but I'm still not excited at all. I don't think I'll ever really be excited about Christmas again as long as I work for the Post Office. :(

But tonight I bought the makings for one of your Christmas pressies. Aheh heh heh. It's gonna be great. *g*

*EVIL GRIN*

Neither of us are excited about Christmas, but I guarantee squealing when I finish your present and . . . uhh . . . present it. It's been all I can do not to hint about what it is at all.

*wags*

I can't wait to see what you're doing!

[bat_cheva]

I think you are going to laugh your ass off when I present it to you. *giggles*

[naamah_darling]

Oh, dear, dear, dear.

This I gotta see!

[naamah_darling]

Muwahahaha!

Fish will come running when I pull it out, and she insists that I brush her armpits and her cheeks and her chin. It's ADORABLE. Sif, who is terrified of being touched or brushed, loves it.

Tazendra is indifferent, but oddly enough, she sheds the least of them, despite that she's long-haired.

*rofl*

"Crouching Fur, Hidden Dander."

*lol*

I've used the Furminator on myself, and whereas I can't bear to use a slicker brush or stiff-bristle brushes on my own hair (hello, OW), the Furminator feels REALLY GOOD. No wonder they roll around like cheap sluts.

I beg to differ.

Border's and Barnes and Noble killed indy bookstores, Amazon just came in for the coup de grace.

[naamah_darling]

True. The chains were slowly strangling the life out of the indie stores, and then Amazon came along and finished the job.

In a stroke of irony, I've largely forsaken the chain stores, too, in favor of shopping online. I'm sure I'm not alone.

Ahaha! I saw that. It's not enough, but at least the other people in the town see them for the reprehensible crapheads that they are. I am genuinely hoping for some horrific act of violence. I know that makes me evil, but I just can't give a fuck.

Even after watching it 40 times, I still can't decide if 300 is a wonderful movie, or INCREDIBLY BAD. It's beautiful, amazingly beautiful, but oh my god, it's so easy to make fun of. You will probably enjoy it if you go in expecting pretty and dumb.
