You still up?

It’s round about midnight, and I am just back from the movies – Zero Dark Thirty. Excellent film. What would I have done differently?  Cut it by about twenty minutes, and give the leading lady a signature outfit/look.

Just threw a load of laundry into the machine. I want to get everything out of the waytonight, so I can get out and take some photos of all this snow.

This beautiful fir lives in my friend’s front yard. It’s between 75′-80′ tall. The lower branches are 20′-22′ long. This morning even I was enchanted by all the white wintery wonderousness. And you know what I usually say about snow; it belongs on mountaintops, Christmas cards, and in the movies, but not where I have to walk! But hanging out in the ‘burbs seems to be softening me up a bit.

The second month of the new year is nearly half gone. I have been so busy since Christmas. One more fairly large project to complete, and then things will be a bit calmer.

Finally got a ticket to then she fell. It an immersive theater experience I have been wanting to experience since summer 2013, and come March I finally will.

Taking this Tuesday and maybe even Saturday off. Definitely going into the city; Madison Square Park is on the list, as well Barnes & Nobel bookstore, and maybe another movie.

Okay, time to check on that laundry.

Smooches.

Frances and I are sitting out the Super Bowl, and spending the evening watching a Law & Order marathon. Actually we’ve been watching it all day. The courtroom scenes are the best!

The big guy on the sofa is my buddy Tiger. He does a lot of napping. Speaking of napping Frances took a pic of me catching some zzzzs on my blue chair. Frances says I am the cat’s meow.

Here’s a pic of me looking out at the snow this morning. See how she made it look like a drawing in Little Photo.

Frances just ordered some Chinese food. She made sure I had a nice bowl of kibble and fresh water for my dinner at 4pm.  I saved a few bits in my bowl for my evening snack.

Last night there was a whole bunch of commotion in the kitchen. Something called the Insinkerator decided to leak. My Master, who is also my BFF, crawled inside the cupboard to fix it. Actually only his top part fit inside, the rest of him was stretched out on the floor.

Frances helped by passing the tools. If you Insinkerator leaks you just have to get your pliers and twist them round and round. Oh and don’t forget to say Dammit Dammit Dammit every time you twist – those are the magic words.

Hey, the courtroom part is about to start.

Thanks for reading my post.

Meow. Meow.

it’s all about the tone…

Tone can be as important as text.

from a Manhattan bound 7

Headed to mid-town for a spot of shopping and a late lunch. Don’t really need to buy anything, but it’s nice to just go have a look around. Who knows there might be something fabulous on the clearance rack somewhere.

Last night I started watching a documentary on Netflix, which I finished this morning. It was about a woman who died while watching TV and wrapping Christmas presents in her tiny London apartment. Her body lay in front of the TV for three years before it was discovered. The TV was on when they found her. She was 38 years old. She had four sisters. She had friends. Her name was Joyce Vincent. The film was Dreams of a Life. I can still hear her singing. I can still see her photos on my mind’s screen. I will write more later, and include some links.

The train has stopped for some reason or another. The conductor mumbled some excuse over the poor excuse for a loud speaker.

I can’t wait to get to Times Square. 

I can’t wait for lunch, because I had no breakfast.

When a train stops for one mumbled reason or another, there is always someone who looks worried. Most look annoyed. And there is always one person who sleeps through it.

We are moving. Yay! Times Square.

maximum technical overdrive, full moon rising, Catch Up Sunday

At this very moment my new Samsung Galaxy Note 2 mobile is  on charge, and I’m blogging from a new Toshiba laptop with Windows 8. Both are a bit of an experience. The mobile was a birthday present, and I was a wee bit afraid to fire it up. I spent over a month opening my desk drawer, taking out the box. opening the box, admiring the phone, even showing it to friends, then returning the phone to box, and the box to back to the desk drawer. And yes, I can hear you all laughing.

I got the laptop a couple weeks back, and I am managing with the big 8 pretty well. Small things like the toolbar being on the bottom of the page are a little maddening, but still I’m doing okay. And I do like the start page with all the app widgets.

I decided to use the Note 2 yesterday because a full moon was rising. Anyone whose read my blog(s) for any length of time knows I like to  start new projects during this most auspicious time.

I’ve declared today Catch Up Sunday. I want to catch up with sleep, my journal, laundry, paperwork, and maybe watch some Hulu and/or Netflix.

Till later my lovelies.

Zzzzz….
