Fall Days are a comin'...

Thoughts…

War Week – Sorry I haven’t had much going on this week. We are working weird shifts and Tiffany is gone on leave right now, so my level of hooliganism and shenaniganism is down this week.

Brush with death – Last night, Tim and I were on our way home from the library and this Mercedes speeding down 1st Avenue almost T-boned us. Tim backed up in time, but the guy behind us had started to follow us out a bit too closely and we backed into him. Neither car was damaged ( ¼ inch scratch on our bumper) so we didn’t do anything about it. It was really scary though.

Costume – I finished my Kanzashi for my costume. I gave up on creating actual Tsumami though. I figure that the reason that there are only like 15 little old men in Japan who know how to do it is the same reason why I am not going to figure it out in time for Halloween, cause it’s damn hard. So, instead I found all these cool silk flowers, took them all apart and built my Kanzashi from them. It doesn’t look quite authentic, but it is really close and really pretty, so it’ll just have to do. Now, on to my Okobo!

Cat Baths – We gave Cleo and Paka a bath today. They were both pretty grungy from playing in the backyard and Cleo was starting to look a little gray from scuzziness, so we got some kitty shampoo and went to it. It wasn’t as bad as I thought, they didn’t really howl or anything but they were really frightened. Thankfully, after we toweled them off and let them wander around the house, they seemed to mellow out and spent most of the afternoon grooming themselves. Cleo looks like a different cat now. She’s so clean and shiny. :o)

Weather – It’s cold and rainy today. That coupled with my Apple Cinnamon candle I have burning in my office makes it feel like Fall. I can’t wait until it’s time for Pumpkin Pie and leaves falling… This is my FAVORITE time of year. Halloween is just around the corner….

Halloween Party – Which reminds me, I am having my Halloween Party on the 29th of October, if you are in the area and have a kick ass costume, then email me and I’ll send you the invite…
