Three or four days would be my max and it would have to be someone very special for me to agree to even that. Heck, I sometimes have problems with just two or three hours. Actually, my record was five minutes -- five minutes after that person walked into my door, I was ready to commit murder and accept my jail time.Jen on the Edgehttp://www.jenontheedge.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29186394.post-52031800983511679242012-04-12T18:03:59.422-04:002012-04-12T18:03:59.422-04:00Yes, I noticed that.

Ce n'est pas whipped cream." And why did the whole thing sound even funnier in French?

My 10-yr old will still snuggle (as will my 14yr old daughter! Miracle!) so that does help. And that existential cat is brilliant. I love that he looks so bored and jaded. Sometimes my cats have the ennui, and sometimes they ARE the white idiot writhing nearby.Ann in NJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08867456693546188505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29186394.post-20837673365292443392012-04-12T09:29:42.735-04:002012-04-12T09:29:42.735-04:00Oh, I died when the cat ran into the cat door.
