My cats haven't killed me... whoopee!!

Today I had one of those days -- you know the kind where bad thing after bad thing happens. First you get stuck in the rain and then some moron in the street knocks into you, sending your cafe mocha flying in your own face. Well, you know the drill. Soon you find yourself cranky and irritable and wishing everyone would just leave you the hell alone and why? Because of series of seemingly innoccuous events that would normally only make you pause with a moment of crabbiness have all come together at once to make you a rabid, loony bitch. Well, it is easy to get mired down in that kind of foul mood so I've decided to resurrect a past blog tradition and list the stuff I'm grateful for. You know how I love lists!

1. I have working use of all of the parts of my body.

2. I have awesome friends, some of whom actually walk away from their desk and put their bosses on hold to listen to me bitch about my day, my love life, the seeming inequality of a world where people like Star Jones are rich and I'm not. I have quite a few friends like that and for their presence in my life I am very grateful.

3. I have cable. Cable makes everything better.

4. I've survived another day without my cats killing me in my sleep. Or peeing on anything I own.

5. I have more clothes than a department store. No small feat.

6. I still have the ability to get drunk. There is nothing more annoying than people who claim to have a "high tolerance". How much fun is it if you're not drooling and tripping over your own shoes at the end of the night?

7. I survived my club years. Which involved some foreign substances and weird acts performed in bathrooms. That's all I'll say about that.

8. Boobs. I have them. Men don't. Trust me, that kills them.

9. I don't have a penis. They just look uncomfortable.

And big number 10. My parents only called me once each today. Granted both of them did while I was at work and both were surprised that I didn't have time to talk but they're pretty cute, truth be told, in their doddering old age.
