Lance is going to his new home soon.  He got a great application Thursday at the meow mixer that was approved today.  The new couple will be paying the fee Monday and then they and I will arrange for them to pick up Lance to take to his new home.  They're a great couple and also adopting a little girl kitten from another little named Emma which I'm ( Read more... )

Anyone in DChave use for a never used 400 watt power supply for a computer, long white cable (coaxil?), or kind of ugly teapot?

So my rent increase is only $20 so I'm staying where I am for now.  I love having Safeway across the street, Whole Foods (and pub and wine) three blocks away, and a ten minute (fifteen if I'm feeling lazy) walk to the metro ( Read more... )

Also, might make it feel less like I'm denying myself something if I sub Latin in for the riding.

Just a thought.  As I curl up with Wheelocks and a notebook...

So I was so proud of myself.  I had woken up before my alarm went off and I was ready for the day  My alarm was still set for 8:50 and 9:15 to give me plenty of time to eat (needed before riding), find breeches (since I hadn't the night before due to laziness, or cooking, I did a fair amount of cooking ahead last night), make coffee, and get out ( Read more... )

So I don't write here as often as I used to.  Huh ( Read more... )

I'm kind of interested now in the book.  The discussion talks about female friendship and how a friendship from one's teens changes as we grow up.
