So, how was YOUR Friday the 13th?

Mine was mostly okay, but it started off poorly.

My wife put two bags of cat pee into my armoire.

See, it was 12:10 AM, just as Friday the 13 started, and Lis was going to bed. There were two plastic bags on the floor, in the doorway in front of my armoire that she thought should go in my armoire. So she put them there.

A bit later, I asked Lis why there was a huge puddle on the floor in the doorway in front of my armoire. Lis said, "Wait. What KIND of puddle?" We determined it was a puddle of cat pee.

Lis explained that she had taken two bags from the floor there, and put them in my armoire, and I pulled them out, and determined that, yes, the cat had pulled the bags over to where they were and peed on them. And then Lis took those bags and put them in the armoire, leaving a significant portion of the pee on the floor.

On the other hand, when she wrote me a shopping list for Costco, it included, "Soy milk, a bear full of cookies, apples, ingredients for chokklit pah."

I'm apparently going to be making my famous chokklit pah for a potluck for her co-workers. I used to call it "Auntie Debbie's Chocolate Dream Pie," but I guess it's now going to be called "Chokklit Pah."

Also, we picked up the final Lemony Snicket book today; I've read about half of it, but Lis wants to finish reading it before midnight. So I handed it off to her. About half an hour ago. She's not started reading yet; I may go and reclaim it soon. . .

I'm afraid my friday the 13th has not been bad at all... the worst thing that happened was the guest lecturer cancelling because she was sick... everything else has been better than expected.

Honestly, I was a little disappointed. I wanted the series to end as theatrically as it began and went on, and it got all philosophical and naturalistic and a whole lot of bad stuff that should have happened didn't and, well, it's his series, but HM didn't have any trouble with giving it up to let me read it after she finished it, which is not, I think, a good sign.

Did the place you bought the book have the freebies? I went with a friend to pick up her copy, and grabbed a copy of the contest materials and the CD in case you might want them. So ngs on the CD are Scream and Run Away, Walking My Gargoyle andCrows. Let me know if you want them.

Armoire - what's that in, er, other dialects of English? Just a wardrobe? A chest of drawers? More complicated?
