OMG!!! Kittens!!!

Yours Truly has just trickled in from the très chic Beehives salon, which is to be highly recommended as I generally get to look at a kitten or a puppy almost every time I go in. To-day they passed around kittens like party favors, and now I am barfing out rainbows and sunshine like nobody's business. There is nothing like fuzzy black kittens to give one a sense of joie d'vivre and bonheur, as well as a bunch of other fabulously French words I am too lazy to look up.

Somehow, they also managed to give me a lovely coiffure while I sneezed and read lovely trashy gossip about anorexically buffed celebrities misbehaving badly.

In other useless news, my dear friend *Gerald went out with us last night and bragged about his new painful piercing. Of course, I'm too much of a lady to say exactly where the piercing is popularly said to be located, but I will say that it rhymes with "clenis".

I don't know about everyone else, but I plan to spend the rest of the day idling irresponsibly and nibbling on things that are terribly, terribly bad for me.



*"Gerald" isn't really his **name (I thought it would be a good idea to preserve his anonymity on teh intranets). His real name is Craig!

** The Random_Speak committee has decided that "Gerald" would be a fabulous name for a kitten, if we ever acquired one

What if there were no hypothetical questions?

I've been, quite sadly, a bit behind on the blogging lately.

But I did manage to pop on over to the Beehives salon for some really intense, coffee house-style intellectual conversation this weekend-- yay!

Not only did we discuss whether one should be pro or anti Mariah Carey (we've decided that I'm Mariah-agnostic), but we also considered the following questions posed by a random scrap of paper:

If a turtle loses his shell, is he naked or homeless?
If all the nations in the world are in debt, where did all the money go?
If you try to fail, and succeed, what have you done?
Why don't psychics ever win the lottery?
What was the best thing before sliced bread?
If the "black box" flight recorder is never damaged during a plane crash, why isn't the whole airplane made out of that stuff?
If buttered bread always lands on the butter-side down and a cat always lands on its feet, what happens if you strap buttered bread to a cat's back?
Why do they put Braille on the drive-through bank machines?
Whose cruel idea was it for the word "Lisp" to have a "S" in it?
