8301 - Good... Saturday?

[scottobear]

Dreamt that I was in Disney world chasing a shape-shifting Newton. Hippo, Crocodile, Puma, then Newt, depending on the tone of voice I was using to call to him, and what part of the magic kingdom we were in... mostly Haunted Mansion / Tiki Birds region. He seemed to stick with changing into other animals, but was always recognizable by me, somehow. I finally caught him at Pirates of the Caribbean, on the island with the impaled skeleton. (where the seagull is sitting).

Went with Danny out to Masamune, my first time there. The food was superb. I'd have to say the spicy tofu appetizer was the best I've ever had. I'll be going back pretty frequently, I suspect. I also had a cucumber roll, salad and tempura veggies. It was nice to have about 5 hours with Danny for the first time in an age.. he picked me up at work, did some shopping (I got a new UPS battery at the Depot, and he got a DVD at Barnes & Noble -The Quest for Fire.

Outside was a weird security tower/siege machine looking gizmo.

It seats one inside, has a light flasher on top, wind gauge, speakers on all sides, and can be elevated to about four stories or so. it seats one, and has a nice air conditioning unit on top, a swell as very dark-tinted windows. I wonder what purpose it serves in the parking lot? Some sort event there later?

We got to catch up.. I'm glad things are going quite a bit better for him and Jan, for the most part.

Freaky, sinister seeming Easter tradition in Spain - processions in classic pre-inquisition Christian garb.

Too bad we don't do this here, but I suppose some folks would confuse 'em for Klansmen.

- most found via substitute.

First episode of the new Dr. Who airs in the UK tonight! I wonder how long it'll take for it to be on the torrent sites? I'm guessing 3 hours after.

Who knew that Newtie Liked pb&J on wheat??

I hear and obey!

[scottobear.livejournal.com]

OR NOT!

[blackhellkat.livejournal.com]

He does. He sent me a text message one day and asked me to pick him up a pb&j on wheat while you were at work.

[scottobear.livejournal.com]

I think you're fibbin'!

I just made a PB&J, and he didn't want anything to do with it.... I suspect villainy is afoot!

Consolation to newt of course was that he got an olive to lick.

[blackhellkat.livejournal.com]

Well did you cut off the crusts? Otherwise try making a pb&j& grape nuts and see if that works.

[scottobear.livejournal.com]

his mental commands didn't mention anything about crusts.

hmm.. and we're out of grape nuts now.

Do you think that honey nut cheerios would work?

[blackhellkat.livejournal.com]

Oh no! Newt told me one time that Honey Nut Cheerios make him gag--Special K is AOK though.

[scottobear.livejournal.com]

Well, I'm just going to have to head to the market, then!

Thanks for the info... not sure why the Newtster isn't just breaking it to me straight.

[blackhellkat.livejournal.com]

Well one more thing---he also told me he wants to start watching the Gilmore Girls---he's tired of missing it every Tuesday.

[scottobear.livejournal.com]

Ok, now I know you're pulling my leg... (because it's often on in the background when I'm surfing on Tuesdays!)

Newt already watches it!

[fivefootmayhem.livejournal.com]

This is adorable!! ^_^

[blackhellkat.livejournal.com]

I plead the 5th.

[scottobear.livejournal.com]

She did do a good job on Newt at his most sinister and me at my most, er, whatever.

[scottobear.livejournal.com]

What sammiches does Pye like to eat? I sort of picture him as a turky and swiss sort of fellow.

[blackhellkat.livejournal.com]

No I'm the turkey gal. Pye won't really eat any human food. He prefers plastic bags to gnaw on--which vexes his momma greatly. The closest thing to food he eats is roses or other cut flowers. On Valentines day I always give him first dibs at my roses because he enjoys them so much (I have pics somewhere--I'll have to dig them out.)

[blackhellkat.livejournal.com]

Well in all your pictures you never smile--so I figured you must've been hypnotized into smiling. :D (Although you do have a nice warm smile.)

[scottobear.livejournal.com]

I wonder why it is that I don't smile? Never noticed it before.

Newtie can make me smile quite easily, but so can most nice folks! :D

[scottobear.livejournal.com]

Newt's been known to shred carnations, too. Very sweet of you to donate roses to the maw of pye!

[blackhellkat.livejournal.com]

Most people don't smile easily in pictures I think. Even though I hate having my picture taken I suprisingly have quite a few with me smiling. Although one is post accident and I've got a huge knot on my forehead--so I'm not sure if I'm smiling or just dazed.

[scottobear.livejournal.com]

hm... I'll have ot make a point of smiling more often... I really smiled in that picture to counter the total brnout picture I took a few days previous (after being sick, and not sleeping for a few days)

scotto at his worst -



countered by pigtail mania



got to love the tag search - http://flickr.com/photos/scottobear/tags/scotto/

[blackhellkat.livejournal.com]

I remember when you posted that pic of you--I was really worried.

Well My worst--Pretty damn bad
and not so bad--at least my eyes are open
are now on FLICKR

I'm not a big fan of pictures so I'm usually not making a very nice face or grimacing when I smile. My favorite picture of me is the one where my head is peeking around the stairs of the Edgar Allan Poe house--my brother suprised me and took it and I think he probably captured my natural mischievious expression pretty well.

[blackhellkat.livejournal.com]

I get more enjoyment out of watching him enjoy them than I do putting them in a vase and letting them die slowly.

[scottobear.livejournal.com]

Happy Pye makes for a Happy BHK!

[scottobear.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I was at a rough point there.

It took me a long time to get used to being in pictures, too.

[blackhellkat.livejournal.com]

I don't think its something I'll ever get used to. I look at pictures and of me and I see what's wrong and think "god tha'ts how I look?"

I think girls in our culture tend to do that a bit and depsite being a free-thinker I fall prey to it.
