Cats vs. passion fruit

nobody@vox.com(Lurkertype) — Fri, 06 Nov 2009 15:33:03 -0800

One of my videos is too big/long. However, this shorter one is the less-wobbly of the two, Although it has much less gnawing goofyness from tuxboy. I'll try to get the other one edited down for tomorrow.

Here's HRT and TK in the kitchen, and a guest starring passion fruit rind.

Today's cartoon

nobody@vox.com(Lurkertype) — Thu, 05 Nov 2009 14:15:33 -0800

I subscribe to a few cartoons through my iGoogle. One I love (which isn't daily) is Bad Reporter. It's thoughtful and silly all at the same time, in the same strip. The most recent is an example:

Bad Reporter 11/4

We are having technical difficulties getting the kittypix uploaded. :( If you want to see them right now, you'll have to come to my house and I'll show you on the camera. :) Of course, at that point, you could see the kitties IRL.

Finally, content!

Well, sort of. I got cute cat video, but I have to upload it through Mr. LT's computer, and he's at work (the old part-time job).

I had to create it, a la "reality" TV, by picking some ripe passion fruit and seeing if Tuxboy would react the same way again. And indeed he did, nom nom yarrngh yarrngh.

So, tomorrow there'll finally be something worth looking at here.

Right now I'll be over at Laurie's talking beisbol.

The cats. They are not helping.

nobody@vox.com(Lurkertype) — Tue, 03 Nov 2009 16:08:25 -0800

Tried to get tortie wiggling and rotating in a box, and tuxie doing Longcat, but as soon as we get out the camera, they stop doing teh qte.

I need content, their adoring public needs pictures, but they -- being cats -- are being anticooperative.

Fine. I'm just gonna have to go eat some more raisin bread. And look at the pix of Captain Punkinhead again.

Another dull post

nobody@vox.com(Lurkertype) — Mon, 02 Nov 2009 14:40:23 -0800

I tried to get a video of TK yesterday, playing with a toy absolutely nutzo, but of course, as soon as I turned on the camera, he just floomped down. Him's no help with mommy needing content!

HRTortie is apparently beyond the donut stage. I've offered her 3 of them so far this fall and she just doesn't care. More for me. But, again, no cute cat pix.

Last night I tried a new adventure in bread machine -- a raisin-pecan-cinnamon bread. You can't put hardly any cinnamon in the dough or it won't work. But other than that, it came out REALLY TASTY. I haven't had white bread in so long it's like a donut or cookie.

Nothing else happening. I'm off to slap some butter and extra cinnamon on a slice of that bread. Nom!

'hood only -- Cap'n Punkinhead

nobody@vox.com(Lurkertype) — Sun, 01 Nov 2009 14:36:07 -0800

If you haven't already, check out the photos of Captain Punkinhead and his adorable Halloween costume over at rpennefe's. (if you're one of her neighbors too)

I provided the adorable "Pirate In Training" t-shirt and she did all the hard work in providing the rest and the baby.

Cute!

It's that time again already?

nobody@vox.com(Lurkertype) — Sun, 01 Nov 2009 14:09:31 -0800

I feel I have even less to say than usual, b/c I am doing even less than usual. I guess that means taking more cat pix?

Well, dull logo or not (no Happicat? no Yoda? no Doughboy?), we'll try again.

The ever-helpful tortie

nobody@vox.com(Lurkertype) — Wed, 21 Oct 2009 16:15:31 -0700

Last night, our cable modem was out for a while and so Fabulous Daddy went to see if there was anything he could do.

There was a nice open space on the desk, and a floofy little HRT who wanted some attention.

Tortie help

These are camera phone pix so they're not the best, but the tortietude and cuteness still shows.
