Happy New Year!
Jan. 2nd, 2009 09:25 pmHappy 2009, everyone!
We had a quiet New Year's with an unexpected surprise at the end. We thought we'd be spending it on our own, but our neighbors came over at the last minute to have a toast with us. Very nice.
So far, 2009 has been a paean to consumerism, because all we did today was spend money: his n'hers black shoes, new litter box and toys for Biscuit, some really cool kites from Costco, LittleBigPlanet as a treat, and other assorted stuff we needed like toilet paper. (One of the great things about belonging to Costco is that we have not bought TP and paper towels in over a year.) Tomorrow I'm going out to the outlets in Flemington, and then we're having dinner with friends. Sunday we'll watch the Dolphins game at my inlaws', since Mom Q is a big fan. I wonder if she'll be half as intense as my mother.
And, as a follow-up to Kitties Don't Eat Carrots:
Biscuit: Want some asparagus!
Me: Okay.
Biscuit: *chomp* *crunch*
Husband: ...Don't feed the cat asparagus!
