Awww, ain't that cute!

Fri Oct 2, 2009, 6:53 PM
  • Mood: Hope
  • Listening to: Nightmares & Dreamscapes by Stephen King
  • Reading: The Rising by Brian Keene (yes, zombies!)
  • Watching: Something or other tv.
  • Eating: Mac & cheese for dinner
  • Drinking: Water! Lots of water, so thirsty!
So, today we stripped the roof. Tomorrow we are hoping to re-paper and shingle it, so that it doesn't rain in. We are also praying that it doesn't rain overnight, or we will literally be sleeping under the stars when the whole damned roof caves in.

So, tonight we had a happy ending. I was helping clean up when I hear meowing. So, upon investigation, I find this tiny calico kitten. Well, not tiny, maybe about 6 months old, good sized. It's under my truck, and it's coming to me when I call. So, it decides that it wants to be on my side of the chain-link fence, and squeezes itself through the fence! No bones in cats, I tells ya. So, it lets me pick it up. I end up putting it in one of the cages, and we are going to call animal services in the morning, I don't want the poor thing roving the neighborhood and either getting hit by a car, eaten by a pitbull or starving to death. I give it some tuna and water and it gobbles it. Well, it got out of the big cage, so I come back to get it, it runs up to me, and I find a smaller cage for it. Escape artist. I'm dreading taking it to the pound tomorrow, it's so sweet and tame. It just wants to play. So, my husband sees it, and says that his cousin has one just like it, and calls to see if he wants it. Well, all-in-all, the wife ends up taking it, it loves the kids, and they have 2 other calicos at home. So, happy ending to be had, and tears avoided. Good news.

Other than that, it's been a reasonably quiet week. But a good one.

Cheers, and here's to happy times.

I hope they don't kill it. It has the potential to go both ways. And I hope the cast some kick ass no name actress for Anita.

Which leads me to this next subject. I know you'll understand this, too. Does it seem like every author in the romance genre is now trying to capitalize off of LKH's world and gimmicks? It's a little sickening. I mean, I know there are no new ideas, really. But people could try to not be such a blatant rip off (unpublished fan fics pardoned, lol).

I think you are right about the capitalization. They all seem to read the same after awhile. It's just sad honestly.
