Yes. He is supposed to be eating this special food for his teeth. And he won’t. I mix it with his other food and he just pulls out (with his paws) the biscuits he does not like. He is currently glaring at me. He is plotting to kill me.

TPBM thinks that their pet is also plotting to kill them

Every morning, I go out to feed our feral cat and never know whether I'll return with a bloody appendage or not. It happens about 1/3 of the time that I do.

My guess is it has to do with the little extensions on letters, (serifs)
and that kerning may be the making of these serifs in metal
while designing the font for printing.

Either that, or jamming slave-type-people into big glass bottles...

Well we do host parties pretty much every week and this is no different. We are hosting a Mardi Gras party tonight. What will you do for beads?

saying "taco" in my head, and no response from salivary glands. It's going to be broccoli and zucchini, and some other vegetables I bought feeling virtuous which are close to going off. meaning it's gonna be soup.

Bought with last weeks lottery ticket. First time I ever won in Megamillions, and it was 2 lousy dollars.

tpbm would rather gamble in Reno than Vegas


(kerning involves the spacing between letters- look at the spacing between "i" & "n" and between "p" and "a"- that's an example of kerning. Without kerning there is the same space between all letters, and it makes things nearly impossible to read and really ugly looking)

Well I don't really gamble I'd rather lay by the pool and let Figment gamble and Vegas pools are more fun :) So false

2 oz. vodka 1 oz. Pomegranate liquor, pour over ice, shake and strain into a martini glass.

Yep. Sure do. I almost never sleep more than a couple of hours at a time. Concidring recent events that is probably a good thing.

Yes, but it wasn't because it needed it, but because I really liked it and they asked me to join in early preparation stage so I could be real part of it, not just helper :)

TPBM would love to sleep for a few days.

I really wonder what that would be like? Even when I'm totally exhausted (like decomp), the most I've ever slept is 10 hours. Most of the time, I cannot sleep more than five hours.
