Fireplace FAIL

In: cat|life

Except that my apartment complex STILL hasn’t had the chimney inspector guy come out to [...]

I have two things on my desk right now, an 8×11 notebook planner (open to this week) and a cup of lemonade. The rest of the desk surface is open (ok, the rest of the main desk surface…) And the cat … is laying on the notebook. Perhaps he surmises that if he lays on [...]

  • Seri: Totally agree on the environmentalism thing. Nice to know I'm not the only one. [...]
