Dreamt that I was taking a museum tour in NYC with Keanu Reeves.  He started flirting with me and holding my hand.  He was very sweet, gentle.

I saw the local hawk again for the first time in months.  He swooped down low over the train station parking lot, not 10' from my head.  Beautiful bird.  Harried by smaller brown birds per usual.

It appears ( Read more... )

He knows where the treats are.  Meow - look at the treat drawer.  Meow - look at the treat drawer.  But that's only if we're standing in the kitchen.  When we hang out in the living room, we either get glared at, or he sits with his back to us, staring at the wall ( Read more... )

Boyfriend flew off to Chicago for his knife fighting thingy.  Bratticus flitted around the apartment all night, eyeing the door and generally looking morose.  I think he feels betting this morning, having hurp'd all over the goddamn living room.

Poor muffin.  I never had a problem with living alone, and enjoy taking little me-time breaks.  But ( Read more... )

Dreamt that I was working as a garbage truck driver for a major filthy metro.  Just as I was about to unload my truck at the dump, a coworker stopped me.  He pulled me out of the cab and around the truck where I saw that there were still twitching human body parts in my haul of garbage.  I called 911.  The operator refused to call the police, ( Read more... )

Dreamt I was doing research for my final project.  Which is kinda funny since I spent about two hours doing research for my final project before I went to bed.  *groan*

For the first time in years and years and years, I got pictures developed.  The internets, and this spiffy new digi cam made it happen.  I should have invested the money years ago.

Fatticus likes to touch people with his paw.  When we're on the futon, he'll stretch out a foreleg and rest his paw against your thigh.  When you pet him vigorously, he'll tap you with the same paw.  Sometimes he'll lie down next to one of his beloved cardboard boxes and put a paw of ownership on the top, curling his toes around the edge.

I was a very productive young lady this weekend.

Saturday UPenn was holding an Archives Conference specifically for some visiting German scholars.  I snuck into the first half of the lecture series and was surprised to find the attendance sparse.  When they broke for lunch I decided to get something to eat at Penn's awesome bookstore.  By the time ( Read more... )

Woke up in the middle of the night to find Fatticus at the foot of the bed, limp and cool to the touch.  I about lost my shit.  We turned on the lights and I yanked the cat up to find that he was exceedingly warm on the under side and glaring at me.  Apparently he thought I was going to chuck him off the bed when I first touched him so he was doing ( Read more... )

Had an awful dream.  Quite possibly the worst I've had since I joined the Army and dreamt about indiscriminate slaughter on a nightly basis.  Anyway.  I was working in an enormous library.  As I was leaving a group of women were walking down a wide staircase with me.  One of them lost control of her baby stroller, which upended and bounced the ( Read more... )

Dreamt that I was having insane sea adventures on both a ship and a submarine.  I was hopelessly in love with a very swarthy, Bluto-esq fellow who kept coming to my rescue.  Once while riding a whale.

This weekend was a font of activity.  I attended the Weekend Guide information seminar at the Philly Art Museum.  Roughly 100 applicants showed up, ( Read more... )
