CLARA BOW and a 1920's b-day cake
watched django at k's finally. its good, you learn a lot about slavery, but it has a lot of special affects like the house blowing up at the end and i'm not into that at all.
k has a new handy person, he has gone through more of these than me. he made great food and is serving it on some kind of a warmer that looks really convenient. had beef from a crock pot, his is always good, with gravy and baked potatoes and broccoli, and wine, with water melon for dessert and coffee. as always lately the portions are too big, more than i can handle.
had cake at the house up north for a's b-day, belated. picked up chocolate cake and i should have gotten white, as publix white cakes are the best. hope i remember that next time.
had the brakes on my car fixed and learned there are clips on the brakes to make a screeching noise when the brake gets low. i never knew that. mine were so low that the screeching clip was completely off of it.
the pound called with a persian cat and a siamese mom and babies. they didn't call back yet, they have to be tested first. the persian is and the siamese isn't. e also called and caught the feral babies. she sounded very proud. lol. she should really foster them herself as she just lost one and it would make her feel better, even with all the hospital appointments for her and bud. she also just had skin cancer removed lately. its the second one. wow! what a weird year.
the people behind w moved out. their roof was leaking and they heard noises in the wall. they were only there a couple of months. w wanted me to know that the calico brought over a rat from the down the road where the man is clearing his yard. very proud. and left it in his garage. lol. that was what the yelling of mother fucker was all about. lol.
still reading the queen noor biography. its unnerving to read it as its sooo different than western living. she is a princeton grad and half arabic and half swedish descent. quite an odd life choice. halaby galleries is from her father's family, even though it was sold decades ago.

I saw the words \"chocolate cake\" in this journal and just had to admire your good taste, 79.........pfffffffffft!
Sounds like you are keeping busy... I\'m glad you got your car into the shop before the brakes totally went out. I have a car fund that I save for car repair and emergencies. We are working on replenishing it after our coolant tank broke, but we are just a couple months away from having it all back.
very smart and organized to have a car fund, wish i would do things like that. there are two ways to do things, insurance or saving, most people are one or the other, i generally buy maximum insurance because saving won\'t happen. but with cars, they don\'t really have that. another way is to skip paying credit cards the month you need something big done. i have another big repair coming up and i\'m dreading it.
e adopted out the 3 babies yesterday to her step-grandaughter and the step grandaughter\'s friend. yay!
mike called with more babies and then km called about the same babies sounding super nervous, wth? she can take them, no problem, she says nooooo, she is full. why is she always sooooo wound up. wth? then she is going on how there are so many new rescues with animals from other counties or other states and it makes it difficult for halifax, obviously she had an audience for it. then she says mike told her to call. then she says, well he told her after she got there that i was coming to get them. she wanted to make sure its me. then she wants to know who we pull under, and i\'m like, we pull under OURSELVES? we have been \"official\" since 2005. too weird. then she says time flies. then she says she is her own organization now and i say, i know that but we don\'t do what you do, it would make me too nervous, we just do this after work and we wait longer to adopt until the animal is a good size. then she says, well there is a white mom with a siamese baby, its not going anywhere, they will kill it. i had told m i would do a mom and baby, WHY kill it? the conversation was so fractured. why are all those people so crazed? then she says that she has absolutely NO SPACE and was only taking five kittens (and leaving the mom?) and then coming back for the rest in a week if not dead. and i\'m thinking, why are you telling me this? she wanted to know how many wishes we had for siamese, i said two that i know of. i have to look it up. we only do this after work, for her its her job. there is a difference. when she started talking i was expecting more harrassment because the group that used to be at petsmart is always harrassing. has it ever occurred to her to open a sanctuary, and just do spays and no more adoption and just relax. even better, work on getting the tax to get mandatory spay/neuter for all animals through federal government, only that will change things. i started feeling exhausted just talking to her. i\'m not the one who actually knows her, stevenr knows her.
