This is just too hilarious to be true. Yet it is. And so close to your humble states, ladies. ;) j

BB & B

So, as you both know, generally you can bring dogs everywhere in NYC. This being the case, Asa brought Quentin to Bed, Bath and Beyond last week. Apparently BB&B has a "dogs in carts" rule and has special doggy shopping carts for them. Soooooo, all 110 pounds of Quentin had to go in the cart. Somehow Asa hefted him in there and, well, you can see the results. Asa said the looks on people's faces and the comments were amazing.

Every time I look at this photo I cannot stop cracking up. Every time. J

Brando cat typewriter

Still got one more application essay hanging over my head... Young Brando here makes typing on a laptop seem so damn cool. I'll take the inspiration where I can find it.

The Best, See?

The dog bed is a good place for a nap

He's so smooshy and sleepy. I love his big head.

Well, at least there's always Tiffany's when you need 'em

LOVED this, as I'm sure the NY Times Ad copy people did too. J

I'm on a roll today

That's right folks, its that day again. The second most special day of the year. The day when my heart starts beating a little faster. The day when I wake up on a Sunday morning excited, nervous, hopeful, hungry for buffalo wings. The day that can make or break hearts; destroy or build dreams.

I don't even have the words

Asa found this. Don't even ask how. You don't need to know. All you need to know is that it is amazing. A mazing.

heart

To fulfill your cute quota for the day:

This is my neighbor's cat, who has quite possibly the most adorable markings a cat has ever had. You can only see the heart when she sits just so, of course. But the triangle/arrow is also there to help focus your attention.
