1. I do not like this holiday overlap so prevalent today, yet my tree is up and ready. Inconsistency, thy name is Jane.

Mamacita says: It’s hard to type with a cat curled up on the keyboard.
1. My two cats follow me all over the house, and lie down to nap only when I sit. They fight over who gets to nap on the table by my left arm. The loser naps on my feet.
2. My BlogHer tiara [...]

Mamacita says:
1. It didn’t rain today, and all the plants, animals, and people are in shock. I mean to say, we don’t know what to do with ourselves. We’re peeking out of the ark and seeing sunlight. I guess one of us should send a dove out to scope for land.
2. All the plants in [...]

3. It’s almost 3 a.m.
4. They are not good essays.
5. They are, in fact, terrible essays.
