Pet sitting (not sitting on pets)

Day 1: Kept being woken in the night by the occational fluffy thing. Woke this morning to find Sarah replaced on the bed by Kyle.
Struggled with Little Cat when giving medicine, then had a moment of panicl thinking it was the wrong cat. Meticulous inspection and cat-lifting confirmed that it was indeed the littler cat.
Came back from Danish Pastry Shop and had lovely breakfast on front porch. Lovely breakfast was followed by discovery of poop in dining room. It was rather stinky, stuck to the floor, and had hair matted into it. (There were also poopy catprints nearby)

So, I have all of these ideas for stories and silly poems and such, but I haven’t fleshed them all out yet. Why? Because I’m a procrastinating slacker mostly, but also because I am totally addicted to the web. I am completely hooked on google reader, and spend most of my days reading feeds from a bevy of different websites. It’s like having all of the websites you like delivered to you in one, easy read, simple page. It’s also very cool, because you can subscribe to friends feeds, and see what they’ve marked as interesting enough to share, and they can see what you chose to share. Hours of entertainment!
And as if I didn’t already waste enough of my day reading random things on the internets, I now have a new preoccupation. Sam’s introduced me to Pownce, which I don’t quite understand yet, but it’s pretty darn cool. It is at least a really neat way of sharing links, music, pictures, videos, whatever between friends. Like friendster with a purpose. Like email but easier. Like a blog meets google reader. Okay, like I said, I don’t quite get it yet.

It’s invitation only at this point (it’s brand spanking new) but I have about 4 invites, and I’m sure Mike has some too. So, join us…join us…join us…

Let us know who’s interested, or if anyone else uses google reader and wants to share feeds, I’m always looking for even more distractions!

“If I lived in Springfield, what would my character look like?”

This is the best I could do with the options available. I’m not sure that it looks like me, but it was fun creating it.
