Birthday Train! Toot-Toot!
I've been seeing these cool purple purses in catalogs and was thinking about getting one for myself. Then, Kris & Laura gave me a new purse for my birthday. It's purple. It's gorgeous. Kris informed me that "Purple was the hot new fall color."
I went to my chiropractor's office, and his wife, the office manager, said "Oh, I like your purse! Purple is the hot color for fall." And she would know, because she is the type of woman that Knows Things Like That.
Then, I got to work, and Wendy said "Oh, Cookie, I looove your purse! Purple is the hot new color for fall, you know."
So, just in case you guys didn't know... now you do.
Leslie said I have to say that she's had a purple purse for a year already.
Whatever.

I've spent 20 minutes today trying to figure out some mathematical equation to express my growing love & admiration for Neil Patrick Harris, minus my sadness that he's gay and cannot be my boyfriend.
Yeah, yeah, he can be my gay boyfriend, I know. But it's not the SAME!
Also, I'm really bad at math!! Even pretend NPH gay boyfriend math!
Wah!

Last night Mojo ate 2 1/2 of Leslie's cigarettes. She performed an emergency procedure to get him to throw up. It was all very scientific. We googled "How to Make a Dog Barf" and then she did most (ie, all) of the work while I tried not to lose my shit thinking Mojo was going to die.
Universe? All those times I said I wanted to throw Mojo out the window, feed him to a shark, leave him at an orphanage, etc? I didn't mean it!!!! He's just a PUPPY!!!!
He woke me up this morning licking my face. Puppy Birthday Kisses are pretty alright. He was in a fine mood and even acted like he had a little bit of sense when I took him for a walk. I was so relieved he was okay. I let him off his leash to run around the yard for a bit while I got ready for work.
When I came back out, he was leaned up against a streetlight (I do NOT know how that got in my yard) wearing a leather jacket, smoking cigarettes and hitting on a calico cat.
I'm telling myself it's just a phase.

I guess it makes sense, what with Kris working amongst all them womenfolk and the magazines that come into the salon... but it's still funny to me that he was the one that knew to get you a purple purse. On our way to the mall, I said "I'm thinking of getting Cookie a purse for her birthday. Y'know, a girly gift." (It was that or a comic book and I'm not sure which ones you've read.) Kris informed me that I should get a purple one. We had so mich fun picking it out.
Happy Birthday! I know it is a day late. I try to call you about once a week, since the new phone book came out. I even thought that I had finally figured out that I could e-mail you by using that envelope on your blog; but it didn't give me your e-mail address. I'm currently umemployed, so I thought I'd take you for a birthday lunch, if I ever could contact you. If you want to call, you can get my numbers from a.j. Have you ever read the Piers Anthony "Xanth" series? The first one is "A Spell for Chameleon".
LBC: I love my purple purse. I get all sorts of compliments on it.
Denise: I'm never home when you call! I talked to A.J. yesterday, I'll try to call this weekend and get your numbers. But I guess they might be on my caller ID, der. I'll look. I delete it a lot so it might not be on there.
But yes! Let's get together.
I haven't read that series. There is a series I have at home that a friend gave me to read in that same genre, though. I haven't started it but I read the first few chapters and it was so good. I'll look at it again and tell you the author/series.
