A Cookie, a Cat, and a Crockpot

It’s been such a busy week, that tonight at 8:30 p.m. is the first time I’ve stopped working because I’m done for the night, instead of stopping work because I’ve passed out in exhaustion at 2 or 3 in the morning.

It’s a great thing I love my work. Smile

Now my brain is fried, and I’ve nothing to do, so I thought: Hey! Why don’t I share my Facebook statuses, since not all my blog readers are my Facebook friends!

So. Here are they:

May 7: When eating a cookie, I bite, then touch my tongue to the bite mark in order to pick up any stray crumbs so they don’t fall on the couch. Is this a normal technique? Or is this OCD?

May 5: So you remember that cat that used to visit me every night but stopped after I heard a catfight one night and I feared it’d died? It showed up last night!!! I was so happy to see it!!! If it comes back tonight, I’ll take pics for you.

May 3: You know if you take the pot out of the crockpot? My one cat is like: Best. Bed. EVER!

May 2: I love formatting technical manuals. Does that make me the only person in the world who loves technical manuals?

And finally a pic from one of my daily walks in the desert:

What’s your week been like?

    Whoa. I wouldn’t walk there. Took something big and mean to bite off half of that vehicle.

    I don’t totally love writing legal encyclopedia articles but my more artistic friends can’t seem to grasp that there is some enjoyment and satisfaction to be had in organizing information neatly and understandably.

    As for your method of cookie eating, I think any OCD tendency is shown by your thinking about how you eat cookies! (Maybe this is a state of mind you get in from doing technical manuals…)

      LOL! I know, right? I’d love to see someone write a flash fiction piece on that!

      I TOTALLY get how organizing information can be fun. Totally!

      (ROFL!)

    I’ve been paying attention to my cookie-eating since I read your post…noticing that I kind of use my bottom lip to make sure I catch all the crumbs, and I ALWAYS do this. (Yes, it does seem a bit OCD to me.) Cheers!

      Hah! I tried that technique this afternoon. I think it’s even better than the tongue-touch technique!!!
