Happy birthday, JZ! Way late, I know, but hey, you're Left Coast -- it's only 7:30 there!

Skipped and skimmed, as is my habit lately, since we're moving in three days (OMGWTF?!) and I'm crazed.

For them whot loves dragonflies

The dragonfly tiaras are bee-yoo-tiful! I don't know how you guys are finding all the unique ones -- my Googling skills must suck.

Vibes and ~ma to them that needs it, and birthday happies to anyone I missed.

The dragonfly ones are cool.

I'm that way with Bring it On.

Me too.

Lost in Translation is awesome.

Sound of music bugs me for reasons I can't even remotely explain, considering I love musicals and Julie Andrews and singing children (usually) and sentimentalism. But I don' like it.

Finally, babies are cute, attacking boobies are funny, I wish I could IM a Girl for two hours, and ice cream is tasty.

I had to go grocery shopping so the auction ended without me. It's okay though, the seller has more.

I liked the dragonfly tiaras. I find this kind of cool: [link]

This one is intriguing: [link]

Also, the new kitty's name is Trixie Belden Girl Detective.

I don't mean to be all about me today. I've been enjoying the conversation, just haven't had anything to add.

I like the kitty name, Deena.

Thanks, Connie. I thought about a few others, and Greg made a number of (mostly silly) suggestions, but that one just seems to suit. She's very curious and cheerful about it.

ETA: Kara, at first, thought the name should be smoochie-smooch, but then changed her mind and said the kitty's name ought to be snookie.

Snookie would work. My cat's name is Koogie, which everyone thinks is a corruption of Cougar but is really a variant on Pul Kogi, a Korean meat dish. I don't remember why we decided to name him after food.

I like that name. I never thought it was from cougar--though I didn't realize it was food.

Let's see, Hubby's cat's formal name was Cat Mondu, which was morphed from Katmandu (we were watching a show on Nepal when we were discussing names with the tiny little puffball kitten). A friend of ours who had been in Korea asked why we named our cat after a noodle dish. Mondu eventually became Mouse. He answered to both names.

Once we had Mondu and Koogie, we decided our next cat would have to be Pop Dong, which means Bowl of Rice, to complete the meal. We inherited a very old cat from a home in which the middle aged grandmother was suddenly terrified of catching toxoplasmosis. Poor old Pop Dong, booted from her cushy home and family because of idiocy. We eventually just called her Old One. She was a master of the trundle-butt, in which she'd walk in a big circle, picking up speed, ending up with a butt against a person so that that person would pet her. She'd do this for as long as anyone would let her.

I want a kitten, somebody new to hug and name and cuddle and learn their habits.

Mondu eventually became Mouse. He answered to both names.

When I was a kid, we had a somewhat fat kitten that we named Mouse. When Mouse got older he lost his fat, so we renamed him Rodent. Rodent had siblings named Spockat, Tigress, and Foolish Big-Eyed Orange Cat.
