My cats like vodka and other tales
Mia has learned the art of opening the liquor cabinet, and she has a habit of trying to open the vodka bottle. Yesterday, I poured myself a vodka cranberry, walked into the kitchen for a bit, and came back to find her head in the rocks glass. When she lifted it out, her mischievous smile was pink.
's been awhile since I posted, so let's see if I can catch everyone up to speed. As promised, the Astroworld highlights will be posted soon.
Halloween was a nonevent. We passed out candy to Millenials, Gen Y folks and even Gen Xers who were still in the spirit. Mama and Papa Cass kept turning out my porch light (we share a switch) because they ran out of candy necklaces (who eats those, and moreover, who passes them out?). Rumor has it that candy necklaces aren't the worst thing to get for Halloween. A teacher at school was bragging about how she was able to clean out her refrigerator. She gave one kid a head of iceberg lettuce. I'm as stunned as you are, believe me. What level of hell does that get you?
Tuesday was spent giving a test all around (HCC and PISD). Did I mention that they can't pay me because they don't have paper?
Wednesday was spent with Glinda, Gordie, and Edgy in the twinkle room of Chapultepec after I was ditched for my bday celebration. Made up for it.
today was teach all day day--Walker, Levertov, Herrera-Sobek, Wordsworth, Mistral, Burns, Hawthorne, Mill, and Carlyle. It's like a patchwork quilt of authors. I filled my spare time with internet searches and stupid quizzes like, "should you be a librarian?" I scored 100%, damnit.
Damn, I have an exciting life. Anyway, have to finish my eggnog and clean the house for the parental units who arrive tomorrow to celebrate Kimday.
Did you know there is a site called "Free Range Librarian?" It's so nice that the little librarians get to roam the yard in freedom before they become Thanksgiving dinner.
