This evening when my roommate Tina and I were in our kitchen, one of the cats who has been posted about before regarding a certain "poop" incident started to meow at us. Her name is Onyx and despite being adorable and wanting some attention she's harmless. That being said, she also seems to forever be hungry. She will often try to con the two of us into double feeding her but we figured out a system. Take that!

Now her meow is rather quiet, almost like a whisper, but in succession it is very annoying, especially when she INSISTS on being fed. Once you grab her dish, watch out, she goes into double time. I believe she gets all "a tingle" with anticipation.

Today I was lacking the patience to hear it so as Tina filled her bowl I told Onyx to knock it off or I would, "kick your face off."

A cat with no face. I don't doubt my ability to kick it off so I started to think what that would be like. In my mind the facelessness would be a lil something like this:

Face: Off. Blam-o! I'm a fan of this cat because she knows her place. "What's that? You're hungry? See, I can't hear you because your face has been kicked clear off..."

The shame is that despite this rant, I actually enjoy cats. It turns out I just have to raise them in order for them to be awesome.
Recently I've been able to work from home. This has been "baller" as the kids would say. Translation: awesome.

Basically I get to sleep in, wear my PJs all day if I so desire, watch The Wire, and bake a ton of tasty treats from the array of cookbooks I got for Christmas.

Today I made apple cinnamon muffins, mini blueberry/pomegranate/orange scones, AND apple cinnamon granola. I tried to post pictures but the site was being lame times a million and won't let me. Another sign that technology is starting to think for itself, or perhaps it was a glitch in the Matrix?

ANYWAY - It's official, I'm no longer impressed by bakers. Watch out Martha Stewart because I will cut a bitch. After which I'll sit her down to try these wonders and then she'll understand why I did it.
