You had an accident incident MD?

yeah jackass rammed into my car in standing traffic b/c his unlaced boot fell off and got jammed under the break.  Seriously.  A grown-ass man we are talking about here.


Yikes stubby is some kind of serial pet killer.

He’s e’er so fond of that puppy stew.  We told him he won’t get much meat out of Harry and Daisy, though.

FINALLY spoke to someone at my POS insurance co.  They will have the appraisal done by Friday.  Fuck all knows when the goddamn car will be fixed n ready to drive again.

I mean, wtf?  I am lucky in that I can get by no problem w/o a car since I live so close to the t, but what if I needed my car for work?  What kind of fuckery is this, I ask you?

Well it could have been worse. Ten% premium increase, 50% co-pay increase, 25% prescription increase, 100% deductible increase.

I could have ended up owing my employer.

I have a mandatory meeting in the morning regarding our annual benefit enrollment. Seeing as how the corporation is in bankruptcy, I am sure all increases in insurance costs will be directly passed on to the employees, unless all benefits have been canceled.

We just have a party at my boss’s house and everyone wears pig ears and gets to take a turn sexually harassing one other person (has to be someone you haven’t harassed before though). Then we have a fist fight and break casserole dishes in the driveway.

All on your tax dollars.

Can I come?

Ours is in the cafeteria this year too. And it’s not a party, just dinner.
At least it’s being catered in.

Damn animals and damn emotional investments, anyway.

So much word.

How is the other cat taking Eddie’s absence?

Eloise is doing well.  There was one heartbreaking morning, on Thursday (we put Eddie to sleep the day before) at dawn, when she woke us up crying and running all over the apartment looking for him. 

And she’s still not eating her treats b/c they always ate their treats together, and they had this ritual where she would nose her way into Eddie’s bowl to make sure that he wasn’t getting anything better than she was.  Sometimes she’d insist on eating his treats and he’d just stand back with this goofy “Huh?” look on his face until I scooched him over to the other bowl (filled with the exact amount of the same treats).  so now it’s like she can’t enjoy them w/o the competition.

My shrink says I’m projecting.  I say Bitch quit yer shrinkifying and write up some scripts already.

But thanks, stubby.

I am sorry your cat died, Duchess. He seemed like he was a fine animal, and I’m sure you are missing him very much.

After Old Dog died, I swore it would be a long time before I got another pet.
But it wasn’t a long time.
It ended up being only a couple of months.

Damn animals and damn emotional investments, anyway.

So last night was the annual High School Orchestras’ Holiday Concert. (There are 4 separate orchestras, my youngest plays cello in the Chamber group.) When the Concert Orchestra took the stage as the climactic group, they had the Choir Director (who regularly sings soprano with the Minnesota Opera and a couple of other groups) sing Oh Holy Night. She was quite impressive.

After she finished, and everybody stood up and started cheering, I turned to my oldest daughter and asked, “How do you think she would sound on My Humps!.”
She laughed so hard, I thought she was going to pee her pants. Then I saw the lady next to her. She looked like she wanted to murder me. I just smiled.

I’m in a hotel this week.

I’m taking a class taught by a man from southern India. There is something so soothing and nap inducing about his accent. Then there is a man at my table who suffers from echolalia. Very weird. Any time the instructor says a thing, he says it right after him. I can’t keep from laughing.
Today the instructor tried to say the word “influential”, but he said it “In-Flea-intial”. I nearly farted.

The chambermaid leaves thank you notes. It’s a really cute college town, but the sun sets at 4:30. All the kids are so damn cute and perky. Ugg boots have not yet left the scene. Today I saw ugg boots, tights, nike shorts and a Go Team collegiate shortie tee shirt all on the same bottle blonde girl. at the same time. Might have been the result of some sort of hazing ritual.
There is an unearthly amount of Christmas musak in this town. EVERYWHERE!
I went for a run this morning, I ran for about 1.25 miles, all downhill, then realised that I’m usually in the bathroom at this time of day. Yow! It made for a pretty intense return trip.

he was registered with the city as Buddy Guy so it’s less hassle.

oh sure, that’s what they’d like you to think. first time he leaves a steaming unauthorised dump on the neighbor’s lawn, you’ll wish for a good alias. not that I’m trying to interfere, and I do love Buddy Guy.

Tumultuous turgid tumescence.

We decided to give up our vanity and accept that he responds to Buddy, short for Buddy Guy. Plus he was registered with the city as Buddy Guy so it’s less hassle.

So, not to talk about my fucking cat again, but I did a really bad thing this afternoon.  I cruised the MSPCA website for available furbags.  I don’t plan on adopting any kittehs until after the holiays (if even—need to sort out if the Weez actually prefers to be an only cat.  Stop me, I can talk about this shit for years...) Anyway, check out these beauties, named, perfectly enough, Chloe and Gucci.  No word if they come with a Paddington tote and the perfect low-rise trousers…

Oh, that third paragraph is referring first to the collective “you” of FatJerry inhabitants. In the second sentence, “you” is referring specifically to Tap.

Just thought I would clear that up.

Sorry Dim, was up all night watching the snow flakes tumble down! (We got about 3/16”.)

It’s a helluva drug.
