stoney321- My Sally Derg is afraid of Christmas lights. This is an inconvenient time for this phobia to rear its head.
- A neighbor has an automatron (what the hell are those called?) penguin that lifts and lowers its top hat.
- My dog cowered behind me when we rounded the corner and came face to face with the PENGUIN OF DEATH.
- which was inconvenient as she weighs 90 pounds and she had to go through me to get behind me.
- so I'm limping on a twisted knee.
- she looked thoroughly sad about Hurting Mommy and wouldn't eat her treat until I told her I wasn't mad at her <-- I'm not lying!!
- Hope Cat, my less than intelligent Siamese, believes the multi-colored lights on our roof line are exotic June Bugs that Must Be Destroyed.
- she's been sitting at the back window creak-meowing to lure them closer.
- for two hours.
- Darthanne, the Serial Killer cat, is laying in a patch of sunshine ignoring all of us
- there are two cotton tails at the front door. :((( (um, just the tails.)
- I thought I had MRSA this weekend, turned out to just be a blister from a pair of Evil Shoes (there's a seam along the back ankle that literally ripped open my ankle. Good hell!)
- I took them back and got a different pair that were worn today with no pain = success! *Hiro arms*
- I am going to get a big ol' bowl of Hot and Sour soup today hoping that will keep me away from fajita nachos
- my family is never ever going to speak to me again after I get this book out <-- positive thinking to make it come true
I meant to say Happy Hannukah yesterday, so please forgive. Happy remaining 7 Days!
Finally: name that movie. "Aw, don't sell yourself short, Judge. You're a terrific slouch."

Date: 2007-12-05 04:20 pm (UTC)The description of Hope is cracking me up. Frankie has been making creak-meows at the swirling leaves of the afternoons. Maybe he thinks they're birds?
Cotton tails, like...there used to be bunnies attached to them? D:
If your family stops speaking to you, you would probably gain a whole two weeks of extra time in your year!
no subject
Date: 2007-12-05 04:36 pm (UTC)This may be because there are times when I wish my family wouldn't speak to me. I have them trimmed down to a minimum though, so I can't really complain!

Date: 2007-12-05 04:40 pm (UTC)Probably the bunnies took their tails off, threw them at her, then ran to safety, not unlike a lizard? :(
Oooh, EXCELLENT THINKING!!

Date: 2007-12-05 05:19 pm (UTC)Yes, I agree with the bunnies. Or maybe they got their adult tails, and shed their beebee ones?
no subject
Date: 2007-12-05 04:32 pm (UTC)Are you implying that Darthanne ate two bunnies for breakfast? She rocks.
no subject
Date: 2007-12-05 04:41 pm (UTC)SHE DID. Actually, I think they were her midnight snack, as she ate her cat food this morning when she came in... She's hard core, I'm telling you.

Date: 2007-12-05 04:40 pm (UTC)Those evil shoes are cute, but the new ones are cuter. So there.
I got some Tom Yum soup paste from the Oriental market, so I'm hot and souring it, too.
"my family is never ever going to speak to me again after I get this book out <-- positive thinking to make it come true" *crosses fingers and keeps the good thought*

Date: 2007-12-05 04:43 pm (UTC)OH MAN I MAY NEED TOM YUM SOUP. Dude, so delicious. I had some last friday with the freshest shrimp... MMMMM.

Date: 2007-12-05 04:45 pm (UTC)And awwww on the cotton tails. I'm thinking of the weetle bunny family you had in your yard last summer...I've decided the cotton tails can't belong to them because they will be cute and furry and alive FOREVER.

The bunny tails DID NOT belong to the babies, because I would feel a shift in the universe towards chaos. (She goes hunting in a big field across the way - there are LOTS and LOTS of bunnies in this area. And coyotes and bobcats, too, which is why I don't normally let her out at night.)

Date: 2007-12-05 04:45 pm (UTC)Why doesn't anyone make nice high-top sports shoes anymore? Or lace-up ankle boots with a 1.5 inch heel and no fucking zipper? Or old-lady Oxfords, like grandma and then hippy chicks used to wear?
Julia, shoes, they are a cursing and a byword
no subject
Date: 2007-12-05 04:54 pm (UTC)I bet you could find Oxfords at a uniform shop - they're still standard issue shoes for all the uniform-schools here. (I love them, too.)

Date: 2007-12-05 05:28 pm (UTC)Merrills and I don't get on; I've got a totally destroyed pair in my closet. I used to wear these wonderous ankle boots from Santana of Canada called "Hazel" but they put in a damned zipper, and ruined them.
Julia, with epically bad feet, and that's before we kick in the whole "diabetic" aspect
<---I dreamed his penis was inside me last night.
Date: 2007-12-05 06:06 pm (UTC)Stoney, I am TIR'D. I was unable to get a popcorn tin last night BUT I did have a dream involving DB!sex so all in all, I win at life.

Date: 2007-12-05 07:01 pm (UTC)I love good hot and sour soup. But I am currently eating a chicken quesadilla which is also tasty.
Counting today, you still have eight days of Hanukah. Don't forget, Jewish holidays always start at sundown.
no subject
Date: 2007-12-05 08:21 pm (UTC)And since I realized I almost mailed you fudge in a Santamas box, I FINALLY found a Hanukkah-ish container and your fudge departs at 4pm my time.
Chicken quesadillas make me very happy, too. Maybe dinner....

Date: 2007-12-05 07:37 pm (UTC)Christmas decorations can be bizarre. There's one off-kilter house near mine that is actually a converted Masonic-type lodge -- it's on the corner of a major intersection so I have no idea why anybody would want to convert it to a real home and actually *live* there -- and the wacky family has an ENORMOUS fiberglass Santa that they leave up from November through April. So it's up through Easter, of course. On the one hand, I have to admire their cheerful insistence on doing their own holiday thing, and on the other I shudder at the huge ghastly grin (on the same plane as the Shoney's Big Bob, do you remember those?) that everyone around has to look at for months.
But back to the pets' reaction to holidays: our cats have never dealt with holiday decorations yet. When we put up the tree I expect it will be... interesting. *uncertain laugh*
BTW, I love my Merrill slip-ons, wear them every day in winter. I'm glad you found a shoe that didn't tear your feet to bits.

Date: 2007-12-05 08:26 pm (UTC)There is a house a few blocks over that has a musical light scheme, in that, you set your car radio to 107.3 and the lights are in time to their music. That's a lot of planning, there. (It's like that famous house online, but not as... bright.)
EEK to the Big Boy Santa! (That gave me a PERFECT visual, omg.) Hope likes to lay under the tree, which is very cute. Sally sniffs all the ornaments within reach.
(I love love love my shoes - I can't wear the slip on type, though, as I have narrow feet that slide around in them unless I wear two pairs of socks.)
