Getting your V-card

Cashier: So are these soy sausauges only for vegetarians?
Me: Yes, yes they are.

Staying Warm

The cat is doing better. We left him out for 4 hours yesterday while we were home and he just slept next to us on the couch while we ate cheese. Yummy glorious cheese, hummus and olives. Drool.

Oh yea, piss cat: This morning he did not as well. He spent a lot of time crying at the walls when I let him out, so now I'm letting him cry in the basement. That little guy has a lot of stamina.

It's cold out this weekend - highs around zero. Although we did take a walk with our smokin' puppy.


"Wants to be cool like all the other dogs"

He could care less that he's walking on snow and it's -10. I couldn't take my hands out of my gloves for more than 2 pictures. We are definitely different animals.

We went to Circuit City and World Market yesterday to see if we could get any good deals. They're closing and I am so, so sad to see World Market go. Obviously I didn't love it that much though because I never even bought their antiqued furniture or imported chocolate. But the deals really weren't that good yet at either of them. 10% off anything worth buying- they've had sales better than that.

In other news, the floors still look AMAZING. Here are pictures. The best part? Sock skating! Oh how I miss pajamas with feet.

So it begins

I promised myself I would start keeping track of my life through blogging. I've been following strangers blogs obsessively and thought that starting my own would give me something to look back on and possibly a way to keep in touch with people. I really do hope to keep up with it!

There are a few new things going on with me. We just had wood floors installed in our kitchen, dining room and entry. There are wood floors currently in the rest of the first floor, and we finally got them done in the rest of the house. I HATED the old carpet in the house since the day we moved in, 3 1/2 years ago so it was long overdue. Even though we had it done professionaly, it was definitely a pain in the ass. We couldn't be at our house from Wednesday until Saturday morning and when we did come home, it stunk like chemicals. Not only did it stink, but our clothes stunk too. The creepiest part? When we ran the dryer it smelled like burning. Can't be good. But they look absolutely, positively, completely amazing. I love the new floors. I will add pictures.

The cat hates the new floors. Hates. We have rocked his world and not in a good way. So far he has peed on a bunch of textiles that smell like us. At least he's not peeing on us. What a high strung little furball!

And Obama officially became President. HELL YEA! That is all.
