Perspective

I was going to post a long and involved post asking why all the Worldcup palaver turned into such sturm und drang, donder and blitzen, Grumpy and Sleepy, but then the Monster kitten spent the last five minutes playing splashies with her water bowl and now I have two little cats sitting on my feet drying off in front of the heater.

And it occurs to me that rather than getting to the heart of why so many of my lovely friends were so drained by Worldcup (I was in the group drained before postings, as opposed to the group who lost the will to live during, who should not be confused with the mods who are even now forming a support network), what I really want to do is hire an aeroplane, jet round the world, pick everyone up, and bring you all here to play with the cats.

 Bugger tea and Xanax, there's nothing like a kitten nomming on your toes to make the world seem a more pleasant place.

I decided I would just keep watching the Discovery Channel's I Love the Whole World commercial until all the icky feelings went away.

and then repeat to myself that I can't not make other people behave like grown ups 5000 times over and over in my head ;p

Now I'm off to E's class to help - we're all making tie-dye shirts today, Woot! - now that's fun

Good call! In all directions! What a great ad, especially the Massai and the giant squid! I'm off to bed and then rowing tomorrow, where people acting like idiots can be splashed.
