► For those wondering I'm still around. It's funny how quickly I got sidetracked from maintaining my LiveJournal again, especially after ignoring it for three months earlier this year. But that's just the way it goes as you delay finishing a post, then delay another, and the next thing you know two weeks have passed and you have 3 unfinished and unpublished journal entries and nothing else for that span.
I can't even remember what I was going to talk about in the journal entry I started a week ago.
► Last Friday I was asked whether Dean and I could cat sit for a week. A couple of years ago my uncle and aunt moved in with my grandmother and brought their cat. My uncle had to go out west a few weeks ago to help my cousin ready his house to sell, and my aunt is supposed to head out there for a week today. Meanwhile my grandmother will be going out of town to stay with another aunt and uncle of mine for a week so she asked if we could look after the cat.
I was told that my first aunt would bring the cat it's supplies (food, kitty litter and box) before she leaves, but that seems unlikely now since she's supposed to have left already. I had called my grandmother a couple of days ago and she told me that she herself wasn't leaving until Saturday. I now don't know who's bringing the cat, nor when. Hell, I don't even know for certain at this point whether we're cat sitting at all now.
So much for the test run (I've talked about the vague possibility of getting a kitten before so Dad thought this would be a good test, although there's a sizable difference between a gentle little kitten and a big fat old cat).

Adding Monsters to Thrift Store Paintings - While I think this is brilliant and a clever way to give life to dull and mediocre unoriginal landscape paintings, I'd imagine the original artists wouldn't be too thrilled to know what happened to their masterpieces. Additionally, you often hear of lost and valuable pieces of art being discovered in flea-markets or thrift shops. I hope they're mindful of that.

First Look: Aaron Eckhart in "I, Frankenstein" Thriller - He looks less like a reanimated hodge-podge corpse man and more like some dude who survived a car accident. I think they underplayed this a bit too much. But then modern Hollywood is all about making everything look hot and sexy I guess.
Phantom of the Opera from 2004 with the Phantom and his slight blemish, I'm looking at you.

AintItCool: Wanna see what Anthony Hopkins looks like as Alfred Hitchcock? Sure ya' do! - Speaking of movie makeup... I'm suitably impressed at how unrecognizable
Anthony Hopkins is. It sure doesn't look like Hopkins at all! Unfortunately, I'm not sure it actually looks like
Hitch either.
