Yep, I’m There

07/31/2009

I just got back from seeing Funny People. I am in the movie. You can see me in the background of the airport scene. If you’re looking for me, look for curly, long blonde hair. I’m wearing a purple top, and my red luggage is beside me. I’m in the scene for several seconds–enough to catch me. And…I don’t look fat!!!

Just what I needed…

He’s a Cheetoh. That’s a new breed of cat that is a cross between a Bengal and an Ocicat. He still has plenty of wild cat in him. He even has webbed feet. This morning I caught him playing in the toilet. I have yet to figure out a name for him. He really doesn’t show much interest unless you meow at him the same way he does.

A Boy and His Phone are Soon Parted

07/17/2009

All it took was a 40 minute conversation after 10 pm for me to take the phone away. I have been dealing with 12 hours of texting every day for about four weeks now. Now it might seem like nothing to be talking at that hour for that long, BUT…his cell phone is roaming and the girl is a in different time zone, making it 12 am for her.

If he’s not texting, he’s playing video games. The one rare thing that makes him interrupt his games is a text from a friend. Every few minutes he pauses his games, reads a text and sends one back. All day. Often he continues well after he should be sleeping. Funny though that he hasn’t begged for his phone back.

Funny People

Finally the release date, July 31, is close. The trailers look good. Please go see and watch the airport scene to look for me. There may be a reward for spotting me in the film. I’m not sure what yet.

The Latest Addition

07/16/2009

I had good returns from a recent garage sale, so the choice was buy a new TV now or get a cat. The cat won. He’s not here yet, but he’s a new breed called a Cheetoh. He will be here in a little over a week. A Cheetoh is a cross between a Bengal and an Ocicat. I don’t have any ideas for names. I haven’t even done a name search yet. I wonder what fits with Baz, Max and Zach. I probably have more to worry about than his name. I am hoping that the cats all get along. Having three cats often means two are fighting. There’s also the odd cat who gets left alone.

Harry Potter

07/15/2009

The new Harry Potter movie is quite well done. For once, I agree with the critics. I’m not sure that’s a good thing though. Unfortunately, the books are so long and the movies are 2+ hours, which is not enough time to really establish the significance of the characters’ actions.

Twitter Gone Wild

07/07/2009

What is up with the Twitter porn? Twitter has been great until the last couple of months when suddenly I’m being followed by anonymous females. I always check out the person who’s following me, so when I follow their links, I end up at some porn site. Has anyone figured out a way to block these other than blocking them individually? Obviously they aren’t really following my posts. It’s all a tease. Maybe the tease would be interesting if I were a guy (the porn is directed to men). I’m sure these “followers” have some way of spamming all of Twitter. It’s time Twitter figured out how to stop the crap followers.
