Did You Know?

Did you know that it has been September for over a week now?
Did you know I was super excited for the September-ness until the apartment I really wanted fell through and I am now much more desperately looking for an apartment?
Did you know even Disney movies are not taking the edge off of my stress-stomach when I think about starting school?
Did you know the Gam Fam was together in near completion this weekend?  (George, this whole college thing you're doing has really bad timing)

So let's concentrate on the positives, shall we?

This weekend was pretty split between enjoying having on of these guys on my lap:

And going out with the gals, aka all my sisters to the Los Angeles for some dinner at a very Los Angeles Thai Restaurant.  So LA that the bathroom looked like this:

"You Don't Need a Mirror! You're Already Beautiful!"

And on the really bright side, watching AristoCats for the first time since I was old enough to really get it has been awesome.  Like, there is a scene where a Parisian is drinking a bottle of wine and then sees the little mouse chasing Scat Cat and his gang of Alley Cats and he just pours out all his wine because he thinks he's too drunk.  I always remember seeing that scene and not understanding it which only makes it all the better.  

Also, I'm pretty sure that whole movie is my mom's ideal retirement situation.  Minus the crazy butler trying to kill her cats and plus my Dad.  But seriously living in Paris in a gorgeous home with a billion cats?  Check, check, and check.  

On the weirder side, if I had a crush on a non-human Disney character, I'm pretty sure it would be Abraham Delacey Giuseppe Casey Thomas O'Malley the Alley Cat. I mean, after that name, who wouldn't?

So maybe the answer to life's problems is definitely Disney movies.  Now if only Disnye movies could find me a place to live in two weeks.

P.S. Don't think I've forgotten that I never gave my brother a proper blog-goodbye.  And not to spoil things or anything, but is anyone else suuuuuuper excited for the LA county fair? Let me know if you want to come with (but we already missed out on John Stamos performing with the Beach Boys - I know, I'm still wallowing over the loss).
