First off, has anyone been watching Mind Control with Derren Brown?  It's freaky...  What's most freaky is that they're all, "No, he has no powers.  It's all psychology."  Alex and I are hooked.  Last night, I think the freakiest thing was the predictions about the New York bankers.  I don't want to give it away...but you can go see the episode ( Read more... )

We've had Magic for one year today exactly.  We bought him a scratchy-rug hangy thing and a mouse that runs around.  We're so happy.  We love our kitty so much.

Magic's new favorite game is to hide in the bedroom window and then launch himself onto the bed...usually landing on either Alex's stomach or mine.  This is about a five to seven foot jump...so it kind of hurts.  But Magic doesn't care.  He thinks it's great fun :-p.  Oh, and then, if I'm reading, he thinks the wolf bookmark (and normal plastic one ( Read more... )

Yay!  I ate breakfast for the first time in like...months!  (Hello, I do have to try and eat at like 4:45...that's HARD).

Great, now Magic is trying to eat breakfast...and it's a cardboard box.  Gotta go!  Byes!

Did I post that I snuck the little kitty from work out so that the state department wouldn't send her to a kill shelter?  She's here with Alex and I...and she's so adorable and sweet!  She's such an attention whore...just rubbing all up on your legs and she loves to sit in the window and watch everyone outside ( Read more... )

The female kitty at work has adopted me as her foster mommy.  She lets me pet her, even while she's eating (and she's doesn't let many people pet her.)  Yesterday, Dora found kitty all curled up sleeping in my office chair.  SO cute!  Kitty hasn't even been venturing into the office...she usually sticks to the "porch" area (it's really a makeshift ( Read more... )

This link of (mostly) hilarious cat pics had me literally laughing out loud.  Thanks, Em!  There's a whole shitload of them, but I think it's worth the entire scroll.  You'll notice my the (potential) original of the icon of this post is on the page.

~Ramon drew a turkey for a desktop picture today...a turkey with it's head cut off and bleeding from the neck.  Jonathan (my boss) said he "had to nix that."  Lol.

~MOPAC had a nice and free Thanksgiving dinner for the employees today.  It certainly wasn't Grandma's cooking, but it was really nice.  Turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, gravy, ( Read more... )

I finished reading Eats, Shoots & Leaves.  It was very funny.  There were several analogies and metaphors which were just hilarious.  If I was to compare her book to any other book I've read, I would say it is most like Mr. Kelley's book.  (Hopefully, my faithful high school buddies still do a little occasional stalkage).  The purpose of the book ( Read more... )

Tunneling...laundry style

Alex thought this old laundry contraption thingy would make a good kitty tunnel. I have to admit...it does. Magic likes it.
