I want some userpics for my Plogs.net account, where I post book reviews (and only book reviews).

I’m looking for userpics with a literary theme that have grade on them (like “A,” “B,” “C,” etc.)

Anyone on my Friends list feeling creative and want to make userpics for me?

I rarely do these, but why not?

1. When was the last time you laughed?
Probably this morning at the vet’s office, laughing about one of the fur-kids, or chatting with the vet I laugh and talk a lot with doctors, usually out of nervousness. How they respond is a good measure of their bedside manner.

2. Who was the last person you had an argument with?
My husband John, for letting the cat out of the house yesterday morning when we needed to confine him. We usually don’t argue much, though.

3. Who was the last person you emailed?
Someone from our Japan office (at work).

4. When was the last time you bathed?
Bath? Um, last Saturday morning, I think. Shower: This morning.

5. What was the last thing you ate?
A blueberry bagel with butter and a non-fat mocha.

I changed my journal style to the S2 style “Component,” with some modifications so that you (well, so I) can read the text.

Hammer and Allegro both had follow-up appointments this morning. Hammer is doing better– the vet wants to wait and see re: pain management, since any painkillers have the potential to cause stomach troubles. Allegro gave a urine sample. Hammer gave a blood sample. Panels to follow.

I’m going to visit my sister and family on Sunday and will be gone or not-around for about 4 days. Don’t know how her current living situation changes affect whether or not I have a couch to surf on, but there’s always a nearby hotel if not.

I am considering getting drums for her son for his birthday (which is tomorrow). Mwahahahaah!

No, seriously. I’ll probably just get him something little and fun, like a maraca. I want to get him a first-instrument kind of thing, but don’t know what would be welcome. I need to chat with her today about it.
