More kitties. We're up to 7 now, and there is a chance of 1 more. Assuming that one shows, this is the limit. So now I'm going to do the annoying pet-parent thing and let you know all about them.

The original ones are Nub and 'Cid. They don't like the new babies, especially 'Cid. Then we got 'Cid's quasi-brother who I named Weezer cuz of his cute little upper respiratory infection. He's basically tamed now, but for the first couple days he was not having the domestication nonsense.

It was supposed to just be Weezer, but the hubby's boss had some extra cats lying around and I got to go get them. I named them Tucker (after Chris Tucker, because he's a little black dude that's really playful and has a big mouth) and Black Jack (aka Jacko). They're smaller than Weezer and have had human contact, so they're good to go.

Then just the other day one of the girls at the office spotted a couple fluffy tabbies at the bank that had apparently been abandoned. They're a bit older than Weezer, so I'm just getting them acclimated to us before I teach them all about living outside on the farm. I named the bigger one Lila (which has been lengthened to Delila), and the hubby named the little one Tinkerbell. Tink is a menace - she's all high strung and psycho and loves to beat up on anything that moves. She'll be a great mouser.

Assuming that Weezer's littermate gets caught I'll have to go through the involved taming process again, because I know he'll be full on feral like Weezer started out. Fortunately I'm good with cats and it'll learn the addictive joys of petting and free food.

Well the kitty quota has gone up. We've apparently lost 1, which is sad, but have yet to find an actual body - could have been got by the coyotes. But now we've got 3 more added - 2 that are littermates and at the end of the stage where their eyes turn color, and 1 that is related to 1 we already have (same mother), that is bigger. The 2 little ones are almost entirely tamed, they're just still jumpy. The other one is only now starting to come around, and he's a little sickly. This is definitely going to throw the routine around here into a spin.

We got the hotwire fence situated today, finally. The 4 cattle we've had in the pen are about out of green stuff to eat, and I had to go out there and shovel cotton seed for them today. We didn't want to turn them out into the back yard today, since 3 of them are still pretty wild, so we're gonna wait until this weekend so we can keep an eye on them while they discover the joys of electrified wire.

I've figured out my new hate on Project Runway. The weird thing for me, watching tonight's ep, was how sad people were that Malan was gone. Apparently he's much nicer in person. Anyway, my venom for Malan has now shifted to that arrogant little putz Keith - who the fuck does he think he is? He acts like he's better than the challenges that are put before him. He put a bracelet on the damn dog and lied about making several outfits for it - totally dodging the whole damn point of tonight's challenge. I want to see him cry.

Okay, enough about him. Here's where the big surprise was - I'm sorry Bradley, I'm so glad you got to stay on board tonight, but that top you made was ugly. I have no idea why the judges loved it so much, I can only guess that you put a serious word in with the birthday candles before you blew them out.

This season has been so weird about that. I've had a couple of moments before when my take on something has been the opposite of what the judges had to say, but it seems that I've been on opposite mode a lot lately. They loved that horrid hair column that Alison put on her model - wtf? They practically gushed over that hair-don't. I thought that look went out with leg warmers. (Wait, are those back in now?) I just don't get it.

I'm sad that Katherine got the boot. I picked Angela's dress for the loser bin personally (because it was hideous, people - hideous!), but I understand that safe is a bad place to design from. And really, neither one of these girls is destined for the winner's circle. Sorry ladies.

Oh, and the winner? Uli's dress was wonderful - I loved it immediately. Okay, I was just a tad wary of the wild fabrics she picked out at the beginning (just like Tim), but when I saw it on the form midway through I knew it would be fantastic (again, just like Tim).

Topic: Head games

All of the Rondaks games I'm doing are on another long pause. *Yawn* It's a little frustrating, but I don't have a huge complaint about it right now because my brain is just out of steam lately. Hopefully this annoyance of hiatus both without and within will be short lived.

Feh, I didn't have anything else to blog about. Sorry.

This is an anti-review. There is a movie that is getting a lot of promo play right now that I do not want to watch. I will be very selective of how I describe it, because I don't want to see a banner ad for it either. Basically I want to avoid this movie entirely if at all possible - seeing the commercials is enough. This move is about a particular disaster - that should tell you enough.
