The littlest angel

[gwyn]

I am much less woe is me today, thanks to 1) a bunch of my wonderful flist pointing out to me that when they had been on the pinch hit list, they ended up with wonderful stories and not to despair, and 2) picking up an extra for a pinch hit person and getting up with time to spare, because what better way is there to get over your own self-pity than by doing something for someone else?

I'm just letting this insane stress of trying to get so much stuff done before I head off to the east coast that I am more unstable than usual (saying a lot, as I think I'm one of the least stable people I've ever met). Stress is my natural state of being, enough so that the times I get sick most often are the times I am relaxed and stress-free. But this is far worse than normal and I need to chill, but OMG so much to do.

Today I was able to at last go pick up a present for dad, and I also found some wonderful, inexpensive pants so I can have a pair of nice pants to bring on the trip. Yay.

Also I have pics of cat torment. I borrowed the angel wings feochadn got for her cat on Halloween, and put them on Blues. I know better than to even try to put them on miss grumpypants Olive. OMG, he was so angry. But he looked adorable and the more he hated me, the funnier it was. Poor kitties.


First it was all, what the fuck is this?



Then it was how the freaking hell do I get this shit off me? Maybe if I back up...



Then it turned into a blur of "get it off get it off get it OFF!"



And finally, acceptance. Or rather, grumblingly hunkering down in abject misery and thinking "I will cut you for this later, you fucking bitch."

OMG that is SO funny! That first pic is just begging to be LOLCat'd.

I hope you have a lovely Christmas, sweetie. *hugshugshugs*

Hee. Oh kittycat. Your life is so hard.

OMG, your poor cat. Thank you for the morning grins.

As for the pinch-hit list, I beta'd two of them the other night, and they were nicely written and thoughtful and better than some I've seen given as fest gifts over the years. And, at least one, was the original story that the writer hadn't been able to finish on time because of an accident.

awww, Blues is usually a real angel, but he surely does not look best pleased

Happy Christmas!

Mme. Gradka does not approve but I am ever so amused. Boy cats exist to be tortured. It's a fact. -em. ps. Good luck with your flights.
