weekend blather
so how was your weekend?
happy belated father's day to all the dads out there
toonman told me he wasnt my father, really?
huh
he did speak to both his daughters and our 'son' joseph
the cats on the other hand
were not very celebratory
harry stole a hunk of cheddar cheese off the kitchen counter
got cornered
(dummy ran to the bedroom window sill to hide)
got swatted
for his misbehavior
not to worry
the swat wasn't very hard
he was not at all repentant
that nervy boy curled up on toonman's desk chair
less than 5 minutes
after
being chased around the apartment
there was the usual amount of beautification™
this week the nails/toes are hot pink
not many photos were taken
i was extremely lazy
i did some reading
finished an excellent
fantasy/time travel novel
the first
of a series called
Bright Empire by Stephen Lawhead
The Skin Map
dont let the title put you off
it was quite a good read
then
i read Carole King's autobiography
Natural Woman
she's led a very interesting life
however
i think
she could have used
a better
stronger
editor
as the second half of the book felt
padded
when i get into reading mode i really devour a book
oh yeah
i have this love of bad movies
i grew up watching 'B' movies
unlike a lot of people i loved
ishtar
the english patient
escape from new york
towering inferno
most recently
i hoped
to love
the movie version
of
dark shadows
in my opinon
not even
johnny depp
could save it
i also love animation
we watched
two fun/good movies this weekend via netflix
a monster of paris
totally charming
fabulously animated
with great voices
then
we watched
hansel and gretel witch hunters
it was terrifically bad
so bad
it was good
and
it had
jeremy renner
hey if you're still here you deserve this as compensation for sitting through all that blather

a
'ps'
to this post

i took that shot in
so i went to my blog list

and
clicked on genie's blog
got an error message
that i needed an RSS reader

the error message appeared
so
i went and got an RSS app

what it does or how it works
but

i am now repeating

sigh
