yeah, I can’t think of anything today

and it’s not that I haven’t been doing anything…there’s all the cooking I’m doing, per the kiddo’s demands for chili, roast, roast chicken, and muffins, brownies, and cookies–that’ll keep anyone busy…and then there’s dress shopping for the upcoming wedding (though I did fall for the first gown I tried on). Setting up a studio space. On the cheap. Meetings. Activities (such a common word when one has children, no?).

I want my cat Nelly’s life. For a week. Nelly has quite a reputation as a merciless hunter, but since coming to my pad, she likes to while away the daytime hours under my bed, snoozing. Then she gets up at night and guards my sleeping self from Fat Cat. Poor Dex.

So, in the absence of any noteworthy deep or wierd thoughts (even my dreams have gone on hiatus!), I have another meme:
