Rhonda: Thanks guys. Just set 'em in my room, I'll unpack later. *tips the bats a large mosquito apiece*

*groans* Can you...keep the noise down...please.

Running through walls isn't the best option, you know.

The new kid did it in the film...sounded good...

Yeah, and I bet they had to stop filming for the day with him, too, while he snuggled on the couch with a lump of ice on his head. Drink this, it'll help.

You're the nicest cat I've ever met. Don't shed on me, okay? *dazedly drinks the water with aspirin dissolved inside*

Rhonda: CAT?

I have no idea.

Rhonda: Sheesh... See you guys later. I gotta get down to the station and see what can run tonight without the Plaid Avenger's input, since it looks like he's down for the day.

*meanwhile, in Apt 2*

Pink: Merrrrp merp merp merp...
Blue: Wobba wobba wobba...
*they materialize fully and gulp in shock at the washing machine*
Pink: Ulp! ...what? what what?
Blue: Mm. Dog.
Pink: Awwwww! Dog! *leans close to washer* Woof?
Blue: Greet-ings. Woof.
Pink: Mn...nope. Nope nope nope.
Blue: Card! Yip yip yip. Card.
Pink: Card! AwwwAWWW.
*they leave a happy-arbor-day card for Kathy*

{oh well...it's the thought that counts, right? }

[The Count]

*Batty and Junie unload the bags, collect their pay (though I think they've gotten hooked on mint pellets, darn sweetfangs you know), then depart wing in wing as they're off for the rest of the night.

*Tunes in to watch some TV... Ack, those idiots are attacking the Lorax now? Well, it is an awful movie version of the story. But they're attacking it for precisely the message it intended to send in the original book/animated special? *Laughsalong with the host's parting comment at the moron attackers.

Hm. I'm gonna guess "those idiots" Ed refers to work for Faux News?

They offered me a job once.

You're kidding! Ugh. What did you tell them?

Rhonda: They don't wear plaid enough.

I told them opinion is not fact and spin is not news. *beat* Mommy? Can I have the kiwi lime popsicle now?

Ohboy. Gonna be a long night.

Rhonda: I'll make some popcorn. This might be vaguely entertaining.

[The Count]

Yes, Faux News. Twas posted by frogboy4, and I happen to like Bob the Pizza Boy's comment of how falling for their redderick is assuming that Faux News is, well, "news".

*Uncle D grumbles about a potential prowler in the backyard patio, contacts Pin and Wrench seeking their meddling kids/superhero help to capture the criminal.

 

[The Count]

*Rummaging through the fridge, gets the milk to pour a bowl for Fatatita and a tall glass for self.
Hope Kathy comes out better after her scheduled visit to the doctors today.
*Fatatita purs softly, worried for Gaffer's friend as well.

coming in the door Hi everyone! Whoops! bumping into chair
Rosita: Kathy! Are you okay?
Yeah...I'm fine. Just off balance;that's all. No more headaches though. But I'm starving!
Chef chuckling I can teke a hint. Stay dere.I mede eggie seled.
Prairie: Ed called.He was saying he hoped you came out better after your visit to the doctor.
That was nice of him.I'll let him know that I'm OK. I have to let Kris know later on too. But I think I might be better off sending Kris a message. She's been a busy lady lately.

 

[The Count]

*Is frustrangered with FB's current stupidity.

*Listens to MCR to calm down.

------------------
Frustrangered? For some reason that sounds like the newest excuse for a sitcom on prime-time... "Frustrangered! Starring Kelsey Grammar! Tonight on Lame-B-C!"
Great word though...

Did somebody call me? I'm sorry, I was researching...

Nah, nobody important. Researching what?

Er. Um. ...Stuff...

Rhonda *skitters off to Newsie's room to peek at his laptop*

What kind of stuff?

Uh. Um. Nothing really. Reporter stuff. You know. So, uh, what's the plan today?

I have work in about an hour. Happily only a four-hour shift. Not like those 12-hour ordeals.

Why accept them if they're so bad?

They're not THAT bad, just long and tiring. And as to why: who do you think buys your Chinese takeout?

Thank you. We'll, uh, find something to keep busy.

Rhonda: Something involving online self-help pop psychology tests?

Ack!

Newsie? Are you actually buying into those silly things? You know half of 'em are BS and half are BS by egotistical little psych majors, right?

Uh...yes. Um. I was...I was...doing research on the absurdity of trying to do therapy on oneself using those sort of sites. Heh heh.

Rhonda: Funny. How does "whatkindofsexyloverareyou.com" fit into that report?

Ack! Uh...excuse me. I have, um, stuff to do. Busy news night. Bye. *whoosh*

Rhonda: Dang. He's gone into plaid.
