Happy Halloween! Today is pretty much my favorite holiday that doesn’t involve turkey!!! I love pumpkins! I love spooky things! I love chocolate! I love wearing costumes! (But either truly scary ones, or good characters — never “Slutty ____”. This year, I am going as Jesse Pinkman.). Anyhoo, we are almost FOUR episodes in to Season 4 of The Vampire Diaries, and have spent the first three episodes gleaning cues to create the most perfect drinking game for this season! But THEN!!! As George and I were riding our bikes to the store last night to get ingredients for pumpkin chocolate chip cookies, I heard the sound of a kitten crying! We pulled over, and found a little black cat caught in a bunch of brambles, shrieking her head off! After assessing that her mother was probably not coming back, we wrapped her up and took her home. You guys, she’s, like, 1 day old! So the rest of the night was spent feeding, bathing, and rubbing her butt. (Don’t ask.) But here is a picture:
She is the size of my finger. And now, for the game!
