I love mankind…it’s people I can’t stand.

1.  I caught Andy Rooney on 60 minutes today.  He was talking about kitchen gadgets and he held up a device used to remove stems from strawberries.  It was a small hinged pair of rusty metal tongs which he held between two fingers with fingernails that looked like they’d be equally effective.  It looked like a torture device.  I wouldn’t normally recommend a manicure for a guy but I might suggest a buzz saw and a sander for those claws Andy calls his fingernails.

2.  Boss called me yesterday and invited me to brunch.  Then she insisted on paying for it. For the first time.  In about 7 years.  I am…how do you say it…pleasantly suspicious.

3.  I reached for a Kleenex this evening and paused when I noticed something odd.  The Kleenex peeking out of the box had small little pinched looking places in a few different spots.  I did not think much of it until later when I saw Little Filthy, front paws on the coffee table, delicately trying to pull a tissue from the box with his front teeth.  Marvelous.

4.  I need to cut down on caffeine.

5.  Looking forward to a fantastic dinner out on Wednesday and I hope to take some pictures to share.  It’s been a while since I’ve done that.
