Bits of Addy
Random wanderings - what I'm dealing with, what's getting me frustrated, what I'm working on (and the progress reports just in case you care) and other stuff that might change from day to day that I just don't feel like putting my sig.
:Interlude: Of Cakes, Cats, and a Concourse...
For your edification:

Dietr: my big brother
D: me
RD: Dietr's roommate
Jericho and Booker: Dietr and RD's cats
Nicki: RD's girlfriend

The actual conversation copied and pasted from a MSN chat window.

Dietr: So I asked RD if he thought that when we're finished with the incredibly delicious cake and returned the pan to you, if you would automatically refill it.
D: Yes, though I will have to get more icing
Dietr: Hey, we can provide the necessary items. We just can't make cake that good.
D: Honey, you should have seen me make it.
D: Mix ingredients together with wisk.
D: Pour in pan.
D: Bake for 40 minutes.
D: Cool.
D: Ice
D: Voila!!!
D: The good part is all hidden in the box.
Dietr: Okay. That's how it would go for you.
Dietr: Here's me:
Dietr: Mix ingredients together with wisk.
Dietr: Contemplate how to remove one particular ingredient (namely the deodorant, I don't know how it got in there).
Dietr: Start over.
Dietr: Mix ingredients together with wisk.
Dietr: Repeat steps 3,4, then 2 again.
Dietr: Pour in pan.
Dietr: Remove Jericho from pan.
Dietr: Repeat steps 2,3,4, and 6.
D: I'd stop you from continuing, but but I'm having too much fun visualizing all this.
Dietr: Call RD into the kitchen, because I, in my gimpyness, can't reach the really high flames.
Dietr: Run for cover.
D: Flames??!!
D: Yikes.
Dietr: They started somewhere between steps 3 and 5.
D: I see.
D: After Jericho was removed from the pan, I hope
Dietr: Yes.
D: Oh, good.
Dietr: Step 8: Help Jericho lick herself clean.
D: *ack* Furball...
Dietr: Step 9: Apply bandages where necessary.
D: And burn ointment/aloe
Dietr: And steri-strips.
D: Indeed
D: Well, since you so clearly require my aid, I guess I'll just have to get around to doing my dishes soon so I actually can make you another cake.
Dietr: Well we're still working on this one.
D: Fair enough. I just want to be ready to "automatically" fill the pan.
D: You know, when most people type lol, they're not actually laughing out loud, but I swear that's all I was doing from the beginning of this conversation.
D: And still am.
Dietr: I haven't gotten around to telling you when we'd attempt steps 22-34 where Booker takes over and RD and I have to convince the neighbors to not call the cops and/or FEMA.
D: I'm just picturing that... wow.
D: Booker has a chef's hat on
Dietr: No, a beret.
D: Ah, ok.
Dietr: Saying "where's that aloe? It needs more aloe."
D: Meanwhile, Jericho's begging to lick the wisk... and the bowl... and the pan... and the jar of frosting...
D: And the aloe?
Dietr: She has wings.
D: Like fairy wings or bird wings?
Dietr: RD, Nicki and I discovered that just a little bit ago.
Dietr: Like Concourse wings.
D: Good for her! I was wondering when cats would take that next step in their evolution.
Dietr: She has so much flab that you can pull it out on the sides and she can become airborn.
D: Ah, but are they aerodynamic?
Dietr: We tested that.
D: Oh my.
Dietr: She's got too much chunky flab around her.
D: Air Jericho. Touching down in the kitchen, garage, and RD's room twice daily.
Dietr: And at her food dish 304,227 times daily.
D: Of course. To refuel!
Dietr: No, just to check for fuel.
D: Well, the intent is essentially the same
Dietr: But there's a difference between "I need fuel" and "I want fuel."
D: This is also true.

*bows* Just proves that it is possible to utterly ruin a cake when most of the ingredients come out of a box.
