It's broken, dude. Or are your talking to Wombat? I'm so confused.

Thanks, Womby. I'll stop worrying about them now. I sorta freaked when the kitten was panting the other day, but I think he might just be weird.

But I'll start worrying about the cute little puglet down the hall from me! So cute! So little radiative heat loss!

Man, Ash, that's one fucked up story. Dumb people shouldn't be allowed to own animals.

Still no a/c here. Management fucked up and ordered the wrong part, and then the head girl downstairs went on vacation. So it's 95 in here during the day, and it only cools off at night if I keep the door proped open. I try to keep feeding the cats ice cubes, but only one of 'em really licks them. They seem fine, if a little pissed off. Much like their owners, in that regard. When the perky girl down front gets back (tomorrow), I'll tell her she can shove my rent hike up her tight little ass, along with the bulk of this month's rent, 'cause I ain't paying it.

I'm in my second-to-last week of doing this scientist gig full time, and here I post in between packing up big boxes of hands-on, kid friendly science experiments. We're about done with our summer day camps, and when I'm done here I will go put our day about nature back into storage.

30 is the new 15, or something. Happy day!

I hear when they're actually yours, they're cuter. I hope so anyway. I like kids and all, I just usually prefer to admire them from a distance, or at least play with them until they're cranky, then give them back to their owners.

My sister was the family rooster for awhile too. No fun at all.

It's a good thing we're genetically driven to think they're the cutest things around, or we'd have been an evolutionary dead end millennia ago.

I assumed by "piano lessons", he meant "banging on the goddamned piano at all hours in an endless, tuneless cacophony."
