Tonight was our 13th anniversary! We went to the Melting Pot for dinner – it was exceedingly delicious.

So apparently we’ve both lost our minds, because we’ve just adopted a baby kitten. A baby baby kitten, she’s only about 3 weeks old. Meet Calypso! (photo credit: JustOrb) She is so tiny. You’d think, however, that she was much bigger if you heard her yelling. All the other cats look huge to me now, even skinny George. <grin> I’ll have some better pictures later, of course, once we’re all settled in. So far the other brats aren’t too bent out of shape, but that’s probably ’cause we’re keeping them separate for now. There’s been some hissing, and Jake got…

What the heck Austin, snow?? Jake likes it. :D I’d like it better if I didn’t have this cough from hell. Yesterday I sounded like a de-barked dog.

Update in bulleted form: Reading! The Wheel of Time turns, and Ages come and pass, leaving memories that become legend. Legend fades to myth, and even myth is long forgotten when the Age that gave it birth comes again. In one Age, called the Third Age by some, an Age yet to come, an Age long past, a wind rose around the alabaster spire known as the White Tower. The wind was not the beginning. There are neither beginnings nor endings to the turning of the Wheel of Time. But it was a beginning. Having read #1 – #11 of…

I was tagged by punk_apple… “It works like this: if you use Flickr, go to the sixth page of your photostream and pick the sixth picture there, then post it to your blog, and pass it on to six other people.” Wallaby, Austin Zoo I’m tagging anyone who wants to do it!

It’s the last day of November! So, naturally, I think I should wrap it up with a meme. ;) This photo meme is kinda cool – I swiped it from awdrey_gore. 01. Answer each of the questions below the cut using the [Flickr] search engine. 02. Choose a photo from the first three pages. 03. Copy the URL of your favorite photos [here]. 04. Then share with the world.

Today was another beautiful day – cool and breezy. I decided to take some pictures in the back yard. My dog is such a ham, he always gets excited when I grab the camera. I didn’t get too many good shots, but here’s some that I liked: Grackle Jake It makes you blink, when 65 pounds of dog comes barrelling at you with that look on his face… Originally published at Jen’s Corner.

Today was a beautiful day, cool and clear, so we decided to go to the Austin Zoo again. Bobo the Cockatoo is just inside the gates, and all he really wants in life is a neck scritch. If you succumb to the temptation, Bobo leans into your fingers and closes his eyes in bliss.

Since the one year I tried NaNoWriMo I managed to write myself into a corner in less than 100 words, I’ve decided to instead sign up for NaBloPoMo! I did manage posting every day for one month a couple of years ago, so I should be able to do it again. Visit NaBloPoMo Anyway, Halloween was nice. Apparently the neighborhood does manage to observe the “no lights, no candy” custom, so no one knocked on the door. This left us free to watch the movies that y’all chose for us! :D First up was Plan 9 from Outer Space. It…
