Weekender

hobbit.jpgI’m re-reading OoTP–again. I’m surprised by how much I enjoy reading it, but with the details of the movie coming in, I want to be sure I KNOW the story as written, and not as seen through a screenwriter, director, actor, etc. I’m going to pace myself, though, so I’m not finished in a day or two.

With the below freezing temperatures, I’m reminded that my heater isn’t working properly. The temperature stays the correct level in every room except the living room, where I have no vent. I covered the vent to place the armoire over it, and I haven’t gotten around to adding a new vent. Mom said we’d put one in this weekend, so I guess I get to learn about jigsaws and heating ducts. Yay!

istar1.jpgHobbit and Istar are, well, fighting a lot. I *think* they’re playing and it looks like Hob’s fighting back more. I’m glad to see her fight and not run, because he needs to be put in his place sometimes. Overall, it’s a nice little vibe. I do think, however, that he suffers from Stockholm Syndrome or something. He will bite the hell out of Hobbit, me, the furniture, and anything else he can target until I give him a bath. Normally, cats will fight to the death to get out of taking baths, but he LOVES it. After getting a bath, he purrs and calms down and becomes the sweetest thing in the world. Yep, I now have two insane kitties. :jack:

Time Marches On

Thanks so much for the thoughts and prayers, they mean the world to me. For more cheerful things, read on.

So, um, I went to Dad’s house to drop off Cage and caught him watching Laguna Beach. He admitted that he records and watches every episode and we even snarked on the girls together. My dad is soooo weird cool. :love:

Hobbit and Istar are getting along really well. So far there have been no injuries and they seem to love chasing each other around the house. Hobbit seems really happy with him, and that was the whole goal of this experiment. If he can stop biting my toes, I guess we’ll keep him. :jack:

New (and default) theme in honor of October and Halloween. Please welcome Frankie back to the lineup.

Guess What Hobbit Got!

istar.jpgHobbit got a little brother today! Actually, we’re on a trial basis this weekend to see how well they get along. Hob is my number one priority and if she just can.not. get along with Istar (Quenya for “Wizard”), he’ll have to go back.

Wish us luck!!

Update: Saturday 2:32pm Still no contact between the two, just a bit of hissing and growling from the Spoiled One.
