Nothing - and I mean NOTHING - is sacred or safe in a house where two cats live. Not your quiet little bowl of buttered beans sitting on the counter for 1 minute 20 seconds while you run to answer the phone. No. They're not safe. Not your leather dining room chairs. Not that new pillow that you bought to fluff up the living room just a smidge. Not your string cheese that you pack to take to work. Not your feet when you dangle your innocent toes from the couch. Not the moldings that you nailed between the ceiling and the wall. Not the sealed loaf of bread you left out over night in the kitchen. No. Nothing is safe. The cats rule the house, that's the law. Get used to it. And stop caring about cat hair on the furniture (oh, but I can't!). That what vacuums are for - even if you have to use them 4 days a week. I'm beginning to wonder when I ever had time to work.
Now, Facebook. The thing I love about FB is looking at pictures of other people's friends. Voyeur you say? Maybe. Just a genuine curiosity in humankind, really. I'm not looking for anyone naked or in compromising positions, though if it comes up, I do laugh and move along. Just random stuff mostly, like funny signs people see while on vacation in Alaska... see Carlos' Mexican restaurant photo above. I found this guy on FB today who is a friend of a friend - he took his family to Alaska and Washington for a summer vaca and took a few photos (see photoshopped grizzly bear eating children - I can't help but notice the only kid who's gonna make it is a Red Sox fan - they're so brilliant) and the Space Needle being squeezed by a monster... why do I love this crap? Maybe it's just a Seattle thing... or a Red Sox thing... or a Mexican thing? Whatever it is, Thank Buddha for Facebook. It keeps the unemployed entertained and off the streets. Why do we ever need a police force or homework when there is Facebook?
On unemployment: I like working. I'm not good at sitting idly at home. Sure, it was fun for about 72 hours. I looked at FB, went for bike rides, cooked my lunch vs. packin', and tied ribbons around 100 wedding gifts we're giving to guests. Then what? Oh yeah - look for a job! Have been interviewing for a few weeks - this week being pretty busy (amen). Looks like I am a forerunner for at least 2 jobs, maybe 3. I should have something in the next week or so. Let's hope I'm not jinxing myself by writing that. Work karma - come and get me!
