In which she rambles quite a lot

Saturday, March 8th, 2003

The unholy fascination with tea continues. I bought myself an electric kettle, because you know I:
1) need something else on my counter
2) need yet another gadget, and
3) need something else that does just one damn thing.
I wanted a regular, on the stove kettle but neither grocery store I went to had one.

Fair warning

I think it’s fantastic that you have an opinion. That’s just super, that you are able to form an opinion. Hopefully you formed it all by yourself, without jumping on a bandwagon or adopting the viewpoint of someone you like without researching it for yourself.

The puppy finally woke up. She slept all the way home and most of the afternoon and evening. So far she’s tinkled 3 times and pooped once in the house, and she has our 85 lb “big dog” completely and utterly terrified. All she has to do is look at him and [...]
