a feather in my cap

I'm not the trendiest of people. I live in the suburbs, I'm married and cook for my husband, I drive a five-year old sedan (albeit a sporty German car), and I make googoo eyes at my cats. I contra dance and go to classical music concerts. But every now and then, I feel right proud of myself for being ahead of the curve, if only slightly.

Several months ago, I stumbled on a web site that is so cute and so funny that it has become a guilty pleasure, a little like the small squares of chocolate I eat every day. I'm talking about yes!~ lolcats ~ in the form of ICanHasCheezburger (the image that started it all is on the left).

Well, Time magazine has just discovered this site and has published a short and very fun article about it. (Apologies if the link does not persist.) But for once, I discovered something before Time did.

OK, back to my standard-issue life...
