It's a good idea, but I can't catch Toadface!
He runs away from me!
Maybe I can get my cat to tie a note to him since he likes to get all in her face.
Now I have to catch my cat and take her to the vet.
It's pretty grey today.
I woke up this morning wanting to buy a nice man cardigan with elbow patches for myself. If I find the perfect cardigan and the perfect house shoes I am set till April you guys.
Fudge has hosed Toadface before. The problem is that cats are so smart that they totally know when you're not around. Toadface would come into our house the minute we'd turn off all the lights and go to bed. I would wake up to the sound of cats figh…
I feel you.
The thing with my cat is that when I went to the cat shelter I specifically asked for an outside cat. The lady there introduced me to my cat telling me "She really wants to go outside. Really bad. This cat has to be let out whoever adopt…
Your description of the weather in Portland fits today's vibe in Anacortes perfectly. I praised the sky and thanked everyone for the grey weather today, then right around dinner time it got hot again...
My cooldude guitar playing friend told my other coolguy guitar playing friend about this. Just thought I'd pass this on:

Sometimes when I see a group of moms with toddlers and babies I think to myself "I don't want to be this way" and it makes me really worried about what reproduction can do to a person.
But here is something important a dear friend pointed out: You d…
A friend of mine died right after High School and he still visits my dreams. He sometimes stands at the foot of my bed and does slowed down silent gestures like the giant in Twin Peaks. He tells me that ending his life was a terrible idea. I have an…
So lovely!
A weird recent development in my life is that it hasn't been so hard to get up in the morning and I really enjoy flopping around and making peppermint tea in this nice crisp breeze. All our windows are still open and I am like, yeah cold …
My cat is dragging herself around the floor, a few steps at a time.
She has this look on her face of her brain melting.
I tried to fan her but the fan scared her.
I put ice cubes in her water dish.
Owls and YT, I feel you guys. I am also a newt/vampire.
I wasn't born on the West Coast, but the summer temperatures were very much a factor in my moving here. I can find hot summer heat sort of entertaining when there have been too many grey days,…
I am prone to fainting.
Very prone to fainting at the sight of blood.
If it's an emergency I will man up and do whatever I can and once all is taken care of and the adrenaline goes down I faint.
Much like Zuck, it happens less now because I know wh…
I love the "see you at five" part.
It's like when Milhouse signs Lisa book with "see you in the car".
RCH/LT, a cool lady I don't see enough of!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
30 is the new 30!
Razz times!
DrJ:
I think it's true what you say. Had I not turned down the offers, I wouldn't be able to tell you guys I did it. It sort of ties in to what LT said about how she is proud to stand by her ideals "maybe especially if it costs her something materia…
Karaoke with YT is life-altering experience.
I can only imagine what it would be like with LT.
I sing Karaoke in up to four languages (two of them poorly).
Happy birthday!
sincerely,
Juice.
By the way, when I got more money (from different sources) I also bought better clothes, furniture, kitchen things, records, books, and stamps for my collection.
I am just as much of a human as anyone else.
You know, I think part of the reason why I am often further on one end of the spectrum than most of the people I know when it comes to making such decisions is because of my dad. My dad quit going to school when he was still in Junior High back in t…
I'm really into your quote, YT.
I think "we infantilize ourselves" truly resonates in me. My way of interpreting this is the refusal to take responsibility for our own lives.
That rant you had on your blog about baby-boomers and our generation's …
LT: I find what you say to be super interesting, I had yet to hear this from a Portlander, and it's almost like you are whispering it. I have a theory that the young creative minds who work for hip ad agencies are sort of playing tag. Some of them a…
I am mostly known for convincing other people I love to turn down offers from companies whom I consider to be shitty when I think the artist can do/deserve better.
I am that kind of animal.
Back in 2005 a representative for Levi's contacted me about an ad campaign featuring "real people with real jobs" and they were looking for a "young girl cartoonist" to be featured in the campaign. They were offering "up to" $10 000 (which seems to …
It's not always about you, bro!
By that I mean that if I choose not to repress a certain record, reprint a certain book, it's often because I am "done" with it and want to move on to other things. Sure, it's not super business savvy not to repress …
Laetitia Sadier is the reason why I make music.
DrJ: As a fan of Courtney Love (the band, not the lady) you really piqued my curiosity, I had heard various version of how Lois picked "Courtney Love" for a band name, but never this one before.
I don't take any of your comments personally, Mikey. I think it's important for me to be subjected to a different world view and if it can be done respectfully and kindly, I am into it. It's fine to roll your eyes at your friends in private sometime…
Feelings towards "being underground" or not are personal.
I like making things in smaller batches and the idea of great success mostly overwhelms me. I don't think I'd be able to do my thing at a larger mainstream scale, the pressure would get to m…
Yeah, that came up at my house this morning.
I say let's eliminate evil one step at a time. To quit an Amazon addiction seems easier to me than to stop using Paypal, or a credit card.
Something else I should have clarified: when the publisher above…
