I love Flogging Molly so much. It's a very rare day that I don't listen to at least some Flogging Molly and Bob Dylan music, yet I never get tired of either of them. They're the only musical artists I've ever found that I can listen to so endlessly and still be happy ( Read more... )

Quark was growling in her sleep, but it turned into purr-snores. <3

The online weather tells me we're at 40 degrees. Will we make good on tonight's freeze warning? Ah, the suspense.

You know, sometimes there's a stretch of days-or even a couple of weeks-where I just don't want to do any general interaction on the web. Oh, I read my e-mail and flist, and I check the JC and Twitter and all that, but to actually talk to people? Not right then. At that point in time, I'd rather be a hermit. Sometimes this is because I'm very busy ( Read more... )

Häagen-Dazs chocolate peanut butter ice cream is beyond delicious. This was probably a fact I was better off not knowing.

It rained tonight! Heavy rain, with thunder! As in, this might have resulted in actual measurable rainfall! Star Wars weather described it thusly: "Ugh. 81 F, light rain? It's like Dagobah out there. Hot and wet, and not in a ( Read more... )

I have suitcases out. Quark is very, very unhappy. She knows what those awful things mean. If I so much as leave her in another room, she starts yowling mournfully and I have to go reassure her that I'm still here. My poor kitty. Siri couldn't care less, as long as the kibble dish is full and I'm not trying to pick her up. I'm pretty sure she just ( Read more... )

Izzy is so Katharine Hepburn. OMG, Izzy is Katharine Hepburn and Ruby is Mae West. Well, no wonder they hate each other. -Mandy, about her cats

ETA another QotD:

Mandy: So that's where that went! You bastard!
me: You gave it to me ( Read more... )

Shadow and I just took a very long walk, and he practically pulled me at a near-run the whole way. No freaking wonder these dogs can herd cattle, or that I've dropped some weight dealing with him.

Additionally, today Shadow actually touched Quark for the first time (sniffed her tail) and she let him. No hisses, no growls, no claws. Just a ( Read more... )

Still trying to reconcile Quark and Siri to Shadow. They've both had very close encounters with him today, yet there was still no blood. This is an encouraging sign. However, Shadow got very excited to be close to kitties. When Shadow is excited, he has a habit of trying to almost pat you with his paw, as if you were asking him to shake. I was ( Read more... )
