Beautiful Spring day today - Back is sore and tummy still upset, but it's hard not to love the weather. If anything, it's a bit warm - thank goodness for the breeze off the bay!

Opened up our windows, and let the kitties sniff the fresh air... good to air out the house. Lots of green glow outside, flowers are blooming like gangbusters.

All of our neighborhood kitties were running around, too... most were too fast for the camera, save the chubby polydactyl girl that lives off of 7th and F. She is a master of using her little mitten-hands, too! I fear for the day we ever own a cat with opposable thumbs... our boys are tricky enough without manual dexterity.

Also discovered that the critter up the road we call "Dirty Cow Cat" (sung to Foreigner's "Dirty White Boy") is really named Zorro.

Pyewacket was at the Window, mewing loudly as BHK picked at the catnip out front... I took a time out from what I was doing to dose both the boys up with a little bit of the kitty-weed.

Saw Chicken Dawg walking around while the in-laws were working in the garden. He was having a grand ol' time, and smartly stayed out of the road.  (Chicken Dawg is named such, because the first day we saw the beagle/basset mix, he was running down the street with a chicken carcass in his mouth - looks like he got it from a trash can. He high-tailed it before we could take it away from him.)

Pictures from walkabout - lots of plants, with the occasional kitty or lawn.

Started the week by taking a new route to work! Get an extra 10 minutes or so to sleep in, Fewer road hazards and a shorter trip home! Seems like a winner, so far.

Rice and Beans combined with the last of our yummy thai/curry soup. I swear that BHK is an amazing chef. I suspect that if she went back into the restaurant field that she'd have quite a following.

We watched Curse of the Golden Flower last night... it seemed to continue forever, and didn't grab me at all. I think that I was expecting Hero or House of Flying Daggers, and it just wasn't that sort of flick. The sets and visuals were nice, but it just didn't elicit any strong feelings or thought processes from me.



More pictures from our sushi night on Sunday, and another picture of the "Prisoner Inn" - Flickr uploader has been very flukey lately. It cuts off uploads midstream and drops items from the queue... I may just go with the web interface from now on.

Last weekend, I couldn't sleep at one point.. played a little Tf2, loaded the 2nd life update, but didn't log on, and got to the last level (haven't completed it) of Portal. So far portal-wise, I've gotten 4 accomplishments - not bad, given that I play about 20 minutes or so at a time, and half of that is spent just piddling around the environment.



via duchess_webb - I like these, and tend to do 'em when I spot 'em.

Leave a comment and ask, and I will -

1. Tell you why I friended you or at least try to.
2. Associate you with something - a song, a color, a photo, a word, etc.
3. Tell you something I like about you.
4. Tell you a memory I have of you.
5. Ask something I've always wanted to know about you.
6. Tell you my favorite user pic of yours.
7. In return, you must post this in your LiveJournal. (No stress about it from me - but I'd like to see it continue!)


via consumerist -

That $1,500 Prada bag may have been stitched by an illegal Chinese immigrant working in a Tuscan sweatshop.

Steve Warshak, the snake oil salesman responsible for Enzyte (and consequently for those "Smiling Bob" ads) was found guilty today of conspiracy to commit mail fraud, bank fraud, and money laundering. So was his mom.



Items recently eaten that may have negative / naughty-juvenile connotations, slang-wise.

Big 'Mo - That had a much different connotation when I was in high school. I'd love to see a nascar kid wearing a BIG 'MO cap.... not sure I could keep a straight face.

Screamin' dill Pickle Pringles - Funny, yet, it's about as extreme as tap water... or we just got the most feebly seasoned stack, ever. (Impulse's comment about it being slang for gonorrhea is better than any gag that comes immediately to my mind.)

Hostess Cherry Pie - Cripes... look at the food values. memo to self, just eat a box o' fat and salt. 11 points???

Not to be outdone, BHK recently had a "Jack Pack" of Beef Stick, cheese stick and pretzel stick.

Yikes.
