(x-posted from my plan)

phone conversation:

mom: oh, one of the cats just walked by, i'll put him on for you.
cat: *purrs*
me: oh, that's one of the black ones, right? one of the ones that's not tyrone? (they have very distinctive purrs, like way louder than normal cats?)
mom: yeah, i think this one is marky mark.
me: what?
mom: yeah, they have names now. we took them to the vets for shots and stuff and i didn't think we could tell them that they just sort of showed up one day and we can't reallly tell them apart so we never named them. i think this is marky mark. the other one is.... what the hell did we name the other one? oh, toenofur. anyway, the other one's on the roof.

later:
mom: oh, toenofur just came in, he wants to talk to you too.

aww, kitty phone purring.

also, my parents, brother, and grandfather are taking a motorcycle trip to vermont this summer. and i can't go because i'll be at camp. but mom said she'd bring me back some syrup and a howard dean. so it's okay.

also, the carpet people screwed up our carpet again, after they ripped out the first messed-up carpet and replaced it.

also, my mom is having robot hip surgery tomorrow.

okay, now you're all up-to-date on my family's goings-ons.

(all-new blog content!)

professor kapila's dinner was deliciouscore. yes.

let's see. we're doing bondage (the rest of thunderball and also octopussy) in like 20 minutes, so... i won't actually get any work done in that amount of time, but MAYBE i will clean a little.

my room basically looks like a printer and a shoe store got in a fight. and while they were fighting they started eating dried fruit and drinking diet dr pepper. yeah.
