I was just yelling at my printer and computer, because they didn't print
something the way I wanted it. Nanki-Poo ran into the room, jumped in my
lap and started purring. Who could stay mad after that? Everybody should
have such a tranquilizer!

Words - so innocent and powerless as they are, as standing in a dictionary,
how potent for good and evil they become in the hands of one who knows how
to combine them.

Joy, you absolutely must not yell at your computer. Computers are like
trolls, if they can get you to react they keep trying. It's also a
mistake to let a computer know you're in a hurry. (Or any machine, for
that matter.)
Nanki-Poo has the right idea - calm and collected. :-)

I was at the liquor store last week when I noticed a bottle of wine
(Italian) with the label "Mommy's Time Out". I wonder if that would apply
in this case?

Reminds me of an old (1967?) Rolling Stones tune - Mother's Little Helper.
About a pill, of course. Probably valium.

Yeah, something like that. At least wine is made from grapes... not
imported from China ;)

Me says: It's *hot* onna OUT.
Persia says: Deres birdies anna sqwweerl onna OUT!
Me says: Yeah, but you will watch them for 3 minutes, then want onna IN.
Persia says: NO I WON'T! I want onna OUT!
Me says: Okay.
2 minutes later...
Persia says: It's HOT onna OUT! And dose birdies and squirrels doan care

Me is very tempted to say NO but of course she doesn't :)
Persia is now back on the IN, where there is food, a water fountain and
plenty of soft places to snooze that don't include pine needles and bugs.

Yeah... and I got a good snootful of her yammering to go OUT then yammering
to get back IN.
Cats are like kids and I know because I was one, once :)
... they won't listen if you tell them it's too cold or too hot or raining.
Wear your raincoat! BUT MOM! Or you need a sweater! No I don't! Or, hey,
it's hot outside, why are you taking a jacket? Because it might rain?
Nothing moms or kids ever do is right. But it's always highly suspect by
the cat :)

Was it on this group or another one where I read the tag line

Snoopy would have run away, she hates it when people yell even if it's on
the television.
