My horoscope for today...


ARIES: Maybe you have kids, maybe you know kids or maybe you're just a child on the inside, but today is best spent playing and not taking life too seriously like you haven't done in years.

-------------------------------------------


So, for my 41st birthday, Pete bought me a Mrs. Beasley doll from Ebay. I had one when I was five or six years old, but like a ninny, I put her in the bottom drawer of the stove as a "bed," and my mom accidentally cooked her. So, I never got another one to replace her, and for some silly reason, I really wanted one again. But, when we got her from Ebay, she was in need of more stuffing, her glasses didn't fit, and her voicebox didn't work. Pete sent her away to a doll fixer, and we just got her back yesterday.


I could NOT remember, for the life of me, what that doll ever SAID, so each time I pulled her string to hear her words, I squealed and laughed like a little kid....Pete and his mom were falling over laughing at me, and they said if they had a videocamera to show me, it was like I reverted right back to being five or six years old again!! One of my favorite things that Mrs. Beasley says is, "You are my favorite little friend!" and that made me squeal with delight!! I JUST LOVE HER!


Yes, I still have an inner child, folks, and yes, sometimes I let her come out and play. So nyah.


Love, Becky

Hey, this is Justin using Heather's thing...

I don't know if I mentioned this before, but when you move, the cats will try to find their old territory instinctively. If you smear Vaseline on their paws (all four if possible, but definitely the front paws), they will lick it off as fast as possible (man, they hate that), and as a result of that they will lose the scent of their old home. That will stop them from trying to run away.
