This and That

• I recently discovered that if I ask Goldie almost any question such as: Is your name Fred? Do you like to eat worms? Are you Jack the Ripper? that her answer, invariably, is yes. However, if you ask her if she does in fact know, The Muffin Man, she vehemently insists that no, she does not indeed.
• We have been to IKEA every night this week. Just so that you know.
• There have been two more sightings of Arachnid Ginormus in my basement. One so large that as it was moving, I actually thought it was a mouse for a moment. I am going to consult a doctor regarding having a basement-ectomy because I cannot live this way.
• Ruby is quite surprised, and delighted to see you:

I am an extremely disorganized person. Except when eating Skittles. When eating Skittles, the only proper way to consume them is to line them up just so and then take one of each color at a time to make a perfect rainbow of fruit flavor as it were.
It is only now I notice that the lines are somewhat crooked. That simply will not do.
