Meet Poindexter
Thursday morning I woke up to find that the cleaning lady found a kitten roaming the hallway. He was a scrawny little thing with hardly a fat little kitty tummy to speak of. Since that morning he hasn't left and has made a home here with us. When M and I move into our own place we hope to take the little spud with us. We call him "Poindexter" but Dexter for short.
Friday morning we woke at the ungodly hour of 5 am to head to Albuquerque for balloon fiesta "special shapes". The best way i can describe it is imagine hundreds of hot-air balloons taking off at almost the same time in the early morning light amidst thousands of people. At the fairgrounds that had everything from coffee to cheese-steaks to funnel cake available early in the morning for the visitors. This picture shows only a few of the many balloons in the sky, (it WAS special shapes day)
Later that day a man in one of the triangular balloons apparently hit a power line, rupturing the balloon, balloon burst into flames and the man fell to his death. After Fiesta we got breakfast with Jessica and Seth at Frontier then walked around our future college campus at the University of New Mexico. We stayed at Jess and Seths most of the day while M completely dismantled, removed 1 little chip, and re-mantled a laptop that had suffered a fatal coffee spill. In payment we were treated to a movie that evening. We saw Religulous which i would recommend to all whom have ever questioned the concepts of organized religion, and it makes you ROTFL.
Saturday, we did next to nothing......damn "americas next top model" marathon. It did however get all stormy and rainy.
Today was a bit more exciting. Karen and I made pies for a small family get together involving green chile burgers, french fries, and onion rings. I amused the children and kept them distracted from the kitten by playing Harry Potter in blue-ray...perdy.. Now everyones gone and I am writing this and digesting my glorious million calorie dinner, what a pleasant evening.
