We got Amy one of these Treat Ball things. Basically it’s a plastic ball that you fill up with cat food and it’s got a little hole so that when she rolls it around, a few bits of food fall out. It’s supposed to be fun for them. The only problem is that she just…

Friday Five: 1. If you owned a restaurant, what kind of food would you serve?I’d probably run something like a steakhouse, where you’d get lots of really good homestyle food. I’m thinking burgers, sandwiches, mac-and-cheese, big slabs of meat, the whole works. Basically the kind of stuff I like to eat. The Snook would concoct…

The Cult of Diet Coke. I myself am a hopeless addict. I actually paid $2.70 for a friggin’ 600mL bottle the other day because I needed the fix and that damn price-gouging gas station was the only supplier in the area.

Oscar MonkeysI’ve finally managed to finish this year’s prize monkeys for the Oscar Contest. Pretty cute, huh? That’s 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place from left to right there. Please be patient, winners. I promise I’ll have them in the mail this weekend!

The date for this year’s Nike Women’s Classic has been posted: June 20th. That’s just over thirteen weeks away. As I’ve run the 5K the past two years, I’m wondering if I should stick with that and try to improve my pace or challenge myself to complete the 10K. What do you guys think? Any…
