Piccies!
I haven't posted since Thursday, I see. Probably because there was really nothing much of interest going on. I had a check-up with my doc on Friday. He seems to think I'm good for staggering on for another bit of a while. Saturday and Sunday were a combination of working on Book Selling Stuff and goofing off with Mike.
One thing that was amusing, though not at the time, was last night when Souvenir managed to dash outside at 2 am. We think he's too little to go outside yet, you see, and he disagrees. So whenever he hears us letting the dogs go out the back door, he bides his time, then tries to rocket blast through when we aren't looking.
Which we usually are, but at 2 am, my reflexes are not at their finest. So he got out.
This has happened a few times before, but during the day, when it wasn't much of a chore to recapture him while he was gawking around at the Big Outside World like the tourist he is. But last night it was FOGGY, so the moonlight couldn't shine through and it was dark as the inside of a cow.
Luckily Caro was up. She bravely found 1 1/2 working flashlights, and we soon got our wandering boy back.
I figure his age at about four months now, and while he IS still a baby, I have to wonder where the heck that TEENY kitten went! You see, I had been looking forward to getting my workspace -- the bit of desk in front of Mike's computer, to the left of mine -- back for part of the day when Mike was at school. But lately Someone Else is usually there hogging it up!
(Can you see how his long hair is starting to grow out at his neck ruff?)
Today has been more of the same, putter some, play some. But I did get energized to start touching up my blue hair. This time for lightener I bought some from the Manic Panic people, instead of going the cheaper route of buying whatever was under $3 at Wal-mart. I have to say, it REALLY does the bleaching thing well!
I tried to take a picture myself. Mirror pics are harder than I thought! (Or maybe I should have changed those two burnt out bulbs first.) But I kind of liked how this one came out.
And here is me looking startlingly like my dad.
OK, enough picspamming for now!
