Ice-storm

I'm so thankful for double-paned, argon gas insulated windows. That's ice in the other side = /.

Kitty Burrito!

Salem loves to "help" when I'm changing my bedding. I'll flick the sheet out high over the bed and let it fall on him like a parachute and he waits, wild eyed, for it to fall around him so he can kick and play-wrestle with the sheet. Not a big help, really. Most of the time I lock the bedroom door so I can finish the chore in peace. Last night I didn't think about it and he was there in a flash as soon as I flicked out the top sheet. Somehow while "wrestling" he got all swaddled up in the sheet , decided that was pretty darn comfy, and was out like a light in 2 minutes flat.

(See that large lump? That would be him.)

` So I decided to go ahead and take that long hot bath I had been planning on. Surely he'd be awake by the time I was finished.

Nope. Half an hour later....still sleeping. Ahh, well, I'll just go start that load of laundry that needs doing. Surely he'll be awake any minute now and I can finish making the bed.

Umm.. guess not.

Oh good! He's waking up.

...dang..

I guess someone had a real hankering for some salmon and garden greens flavored cat treats. I thought I heard what sounded like Salem getting into something but I guess I waited too long before going to check on the situation ( yeah, I know, that's going to have to change once we have a child in the house). When I finally went to check things out Salem was nowhere in sight but I found kibble strewn all over the kitchen floor.

(notice the teeth marks and thorough shredding)

He's not admitting anything...

but I know better.

What Doug and I went to see today...

And, boy, was it worth it...it was such a good movie. It was the best movie I've seen this year ; ). No, seriously, it was the best I've seen in a while. The story, the characters...they did a great job casting this movie, I think. It was kind of sad but in a bittersweet way. It was beautiful.
