I will not see the end of Part II tonight. By tomorrow, though....

Y'know? I think, maybe, just maybe...this book's all right. Am I on schedule for thinking that? Am I too early? Don't worry, I'll most likely kill it in the morning.
-------
some actual dialogue between myself and [livejournal.com profile] kradical:

"Thank you for getting me out of the apartment. I was really ready to kill someone*."
"so we came here, to a large store full of people."
"Yeah, but I expect the people here to be stupid**."
"Good point."
-----------
I am now full of fresh fettucini with a Florentine sauce with extra roasted garlic, which is exactly what is needed after a long stressful day and a brisk walk in cold air. I'd have a glass of red wine, too, but there's work still to be done this evening, and while I can work on one glass of wine I suspect I'd have two, and from there, to *thudsnore*
------------------
The publisher who screwed the pooch on the rush freelance gig still hasn't gotten me the correct info. Massive facepalming on all sides. My poor co-ordinator, it's not her fault. I've been given the go-ahead to invoice for the material I already handed in, tho. So that's Very Good.

------------------------
Alas, I have watched all the episodes of the Muppet Show, second season. *has sadness*

*I have been wrangling writers as well as manuscript, and my temper was stretched just a bit sharp
** not to diss Target or anything but oh dear. Never go there but I see an example of Teh Speshul Stupid. And I didn't even find what I needed.

My son says it's not wrong when it's funny.

After taking a poll here at the casa, the vote stands at:

2 - humans thinking stickers on cats noses is funny, therefore not wrong.

2 - cats who think if humans do the sticker/nose thing again, they will discover the true face of funny is litter-boxing in their shoes.

2 - dogs who think all cats should be covered with stickers, from head to toe. Cats were not amused by this suggestion. *g*

It's only wrong to put a sticker on a cat's nose when they have a cold and you haven't clipped their claws recently.

Only if it covers their nostrils and makes breathing difficult for them ;-)

Have a lovely day! :-)

Target has the *smart* discount store shoppers.

You want "Oh, I hope they don't reproduce"-level stupid, you need Wal-Mart.

Ahh, yes, the dreaded Wally World Zombies. Hate it when that happens. It's why I almost always carry at least a machete, if not the chainsaw...

Any shopping expedition to any store is guaranteed to have at least one exhibit of damn stupid behavior. That's why I only venture out of the house with my DH to keep me calm. Otherwise, I would risk going postal all over the place. ;-)

Shadow says stickers on the nose are just wrong, unless the nose is human. In that case, she doesn't see the point, but whatever floats your boat. ;-)

I think it must be Always Wrong. Mac got a sticker on his leg one time, and shriek! Panic! The fuss of it! There was a Sticker! On his Leg!! And you don't know fren until you have seen Mac frenetic...

My cat, Shyla, is fully clawed and has a mean left-hook.
I have never attempted to put a sticker on her nose.

So I would have to say, not wrong per se, but probably not healthy for owner flesh??
