I was too tired to post last night, and also too tired this morning. We’re taking Cricket to the vet this morning, so I’ll update on that later. Happy Saturday.

Bone-smacking fun!
I didn’t paint that – a preschooler did from back in September. It’s my tie-in to a crazy fun game – Whack-A-Bone! I had fun playing it, and if your home or work environment can tolerate a voice incessantly chanting “Whack-a-bone, whack-a-bone,” maybe you’ll enjoy it, too. The best part about preschool is that I learn a smidgen about everything. If you want to hone your knowledge of ulnas, fibias, sternums and the like, click here! (Don’t click on the game logo that first pops up – wait for the skeleton game to load. It takes about 10 seconds.)
Project Funway
So Cricket’s been sick for a while. In fact, she’s been sick since I made fun of her, dang it. She’s got some , um, ‘leakage’….. and I won’t go into details. Anyway, we’ve had her quarantined in the bathroom for a couple of days to see if The Situation is getting better. It is, but she should probably go see the vet. This is a big problem because she is just awful at the vet. (She once bit through my finger during an appointment.) I’m guessing that the upcoming visit may require some, er…. ‘rectal prodding’ …. and since I really like keeping my blood in my fingers where it belongs, I made this muzzle tonight while I watched Project Runway.
NOTE: I always ask Lloyd to read through posts before I publish them, and now I know that if you’ve never watched Project Runway, the following is completely unfunny.
Tim Gunn: Designers, your challenge is to take this ordinary leather glove and create a fabulous restraint system on a budget of no dollars. Good luck.
Tim Gunn: We’re sending in your models for a fitting.
Heidi Klum: I’m so beautiful, let’s start the show.
Heidi Klum: Designers, we found your work to be careless and unfinished. Lauren – you are somehow the winner of Project Runway. Cricket – have some cat food.
