i just uploaded more kitten pictures, of the two remaining girls, to my flickr.

they are super cute.

i think a lot of us could use some cute today.

this is probably one of the most awesome things i've ever seen.

i have finished all the work on my plate (until a meeting i have in an hour) so let's have some house porn!

It has a studio space on the first floor that i have no use for, but i want it!

I think, though, that I would feel like I was not classy enough for my house if I lived here.

This is actually the house where our Brownie Troop Leader lived last year, before they moved to Vancouver. It is freakin' gorgeous.


Just down the street from one of Sophie's BFFs.

Gah, I need a cigarette now.

we have four girl and two boy kitties - topaz was hiding a couple things under all that fur and pudge!

five have been fixed and are sleeping it off. turquoise was still under two pounds, so she had the room and the toys to herself today. she'll get hers next week.

groggy kittehs are cute.

Our batch of six kittens. More pics to come later!

One of the Mamas forwarded this to me - considering my own family history, this is something likely to affect me and Sophie one day (unless we find a cure, here's hoping!).

Please take a minute (literally, one minute) to sign this online petition to support the Breast Cancer Patient Protection Act, which would put a stop to the current policy by many insurance companies to make mastectomies practically an outpatient procedure.

so i am actually not going out of town for my birthday. instead, i'm going to have a vacation at home, which MIGHT involve getting things done i want to get done, or it might involve napping, or it might involve a day trip. who knows? oh, sweet mystery of life. i am going to keep your suggestions for when soph is out of town in June, tho. thank you for those!

we have six new kittens in the house, for a total of eight felines. they are fluffy. holy gatos. pics tonight.

the story about DMX being arrested on animal cruelty charges is sad but this part:

According to sheriff's deputies, five pit bull mix puppies were taken from the rapper's home by an animal control unit and will be taken to to a jail where they will be cared for by female inmates.

i find kind of fabulous.
