Cats. Can't live with them. Can't pop them on the fanny.

I had to put the cats on house arrest today. Yes, seriously. They tipped over two sodas and one glass of water, dumped a flat of seedlings onto the carpet, and then tried to eat the rest of the seedlings. Who knew that cats like tomato... plants. By 9:30, the kids and I rounded them up and LOCKED them in the bedroom. They had access to the master bathroom where we keep the litter box, but the food was still in the kitchen. I was SO MAD! Now they've discovered that there's more catnip at the bottom of the cardboard cat scratch pad, so the stoners have dismantled it. What a mess... Anybody want a cat? Or two?

It continues to be what we down here call "cold". It's 55 and raining. Brrr. The playland at McDonalds was packed -- with children who, based on my observations, may not quite yet be continent. Eww. I always want to disinfect the kids when the come out of those things.

Sorry to whine so much. It's the weather. At least you can ski on snow. Have fun, Yankees!!
