Nah. I just had the scanner fired up and the couch moved so I could fiddle with the USB ports. And it's all good now. yay
I'll just jump in my time machine, go back to the twelfth century, and ask the vampires to postpone their ancient prophesy for a few days while you take in dinner and a show.

OK, so you just want to show off your mad scanner skills! Humph.
You need to live closer.
I've got the itches. I don't know why. No new bug bites. But..itchies.
Oh, and in my infinite stupidity, I went to petfinder.com this afternoon. Next cat will be a tortie kitten, I think. Not anytime SOON, but....oy. Want kitten. Want to see Mister Kitty with a kitten. Devi will hate it, but she hates everything not me.

Aww... Mister Kitty with kitten would be awesome. I had a tortie when I was a kid. I named her Brownie. I was young.

I was just thinking the same about you!
We had posole on Tuesday.

Don't tempt me even more--I'm seriously considering getting Amarna a younger friend, maybe a female kitty between 6 months and a year, that she can lord it over and still play with, and that I won't have to worry about training. I was just now poking at her flabby belly, and I know she needs more companionship as well as someone to chase her around the apartment and help her lose that flab.
Maybe I can swing it later this summer, after Mom and her hubby come out to visit.

Wouldn't he?
We had cats named Sky and Beau and Kitten (!) and Noodle. We got better for a bit, and then I left and the parents reverted. MommaCat and LittleOne (aka Sprocket, but she hasn't been called that in years.)
My brother is equally unimaginative. They've got Momma, Ms. Kitty and Screech.
And I didn't name Mister Kitty. If I had, he'd probably still be a Mister, though.
My dad actually wanted to name one Muffin. My DAD. Who had 2 previous Muffins. The man who would jokingly rename us Irving and Petunia and Gertrude and Slimy and Petronella.
In reality, I just fall for a cat, I don't really pick the type. Hopefully, it will be a tortie, but there is a chance I'll end up with another grey tabby.

How was the posole? You cook, or restaurant?
Damned continent.
Kathy, you might go with a foster group who will do home trial visits, to see how Armana reacts. Not nicely, at first (really rare) but not screaming insanity (as Devi was with MK.) IME, female cats are sooo much pissier about new cats than boycats. But she does sound like she would do ok with a companion.

damned continent, always getting in the way. Restaurant called Doña Rosa.

One thing about the new restaurant near me is that they don't have posole. I might write them a fan letter and see if I can get them to supply me tortillas.
Man, I want everything on that menu!

Mmmm men in skirts...
Figures the only time I am caught up in Natter is when we turned over a thread.
My work week has ended and I am doing a happy dance. Come Monday I'll be alright officially an employee after three months of contract-y status.
Also? Watching Rescue Me from the 12th and wtf is Jesus doing ? And is that Magdalene drinking vodka ? Okay, why am I watching this...
