What, do you think, Pepperridge Farms, has to do with cookies. How civilian do they think we are? What is seed?

("Send us your table crumbs in the enclosed packet.")

Pepperridge Bakeries, Pepperridge Wholesale Assembly, Pepperridge Fatteners.

- There's a company around here, that has a lot of trucks. The sides of the trucks say, in great big letters, Designer Meat Products ~ Since 1949.

I always wonder what's in there.

Curtains?

It's about 60 and raining here. I saw an article in the paper where people in Seattle are becoming a bit morose about being "cheated."

That's what they call it. "Being cheated."

Because we had one day of 89, one of 90, and I forget the other one, and that was IT.

IT.

You live through ten months of this shit in the winter, and you want August. Period. You understand?

And it hasn't happened, and this week is all rain, and people are REALLY pissed about it. It's not going to be sunny and 80 in November, January, May, or June.

Not me though, because I'm suicidal.

These people are newbies.

I'm sneaking cookies from a pack of Pepperidge Farm Milanos, when I should be eating fruit.

There is a certain mastery to determining just how many cookies one can remove from an open pack before it actually looks like it's been pillaged. I am good at doing this with ice cream, although since I'm the only one that eats it, I'm the only one I'm putting one over on. So the whole things seems quite the waste of time after awhile, after which I change from the teaspoon to the tablespoon.

I loved Coby's descriptions, too. I'm invisible when I sit at the computer.

<<Tesh jumped on a table but he landed on this stack of paper that slowly slid off with him on them. He tried to pretend he meant to do it, >>

Peanut pulled a dumb one the other day. I had backed out of the garage and he went over and sat under the door. Directly under the door, not an inch to the side where the electric eye would stop the door.

Now usually when the door starts down every cat within 30 feet of the door run. Not Peanut. He just looked up and sat there watching the door descend. I waited with my finger on the button to see when he would move. He never did, just laid his ears back and let the door start pushing his head and shoulders down. I hit the reverse button and he still never moved. I had to get out of the Jeep and move him so I could close the door.
