Those cave crickets are freaky looking. I always jump at first, thinking they're big-ass spiders when I see them at my parents' place.

Yeah, I don't think Loki had any idea that when he pounced on one, he was squashing it. But no worries, there's another one. Good cat toys.

Randy Quaid and wife arrested in Canada, seek refugee status

VANCOUVER (AP) — Actor Randy Quaid told Canada's immigration board Friday that he and his wife are seeking asylum from "the murderers of Hollywood" and will therefore apply for refugee status in Canada, after they were arrested on U.S. warrants related to vandalism charges.

The pair were arrested on Thursday afternoon in a shopping area of an affluent Vancouver neighborhood and were jailed on outstanding U.S. warrants.

The Quaids are wanted in Santa Barbara, where they missed a court hearing Monday on felony vandalism charges.

Evi Quaid begged a Canadian immigration adjudicator not to force them to return, saying on Friday that friends, such as actors David Carradine and Heath Ledger, have been "murdered" under mysterious circumstances and she worried something would happen to her husband next.

"We feel our lives are in danger," she said. "Randy has known eight close friends murdered in odd, strange manners ... We feel that we're next."

During a break in the proceedings, the Quaids' lawyer, Brian Tsuji approached the media to read a single-sentence statement from the Quaids. "We are requesting asylum from Hollywood star whackers," he read, declining further comment on the mental state of his clients.

Huh. Yeah, if I was their attorney I think I'd decline further comment on their mental states....

If bon agrees with me, I must be right. Because she never sartorially agrees with me. However Jesse's point as also kinda on point.

Still! I don't do OTT I don't feel comfortable with. And there's plenty of it I feel comfortable doing. Where do I find a wedding guest dress with a neckline down to my navel? But no red shoes.

If I hadn't left my dinner in my car, I wouldn't have noticed I didn't lock it. Oops.

I have not drawn yet today. I am a bad person.

Because I seem to lack all logic when dealing with yardwork at the moment, I just work for almost 2 hours in my yard. I did transplant on shrub, but mostly what I did was dig up the horrible not good really bad roots of vines and old shrubs that had been cut. It seems at some point people cut some shrubs off in several places in my flowerbeds, but they did not dig up roots, so the roots spread and spread and spread and send up new sprouts of the shrubs all over. HATE. I dug up one 4 foot section of root that was an inch in diameter.

I have that problem with a stump in the back.

Apparently I'm going out to a bar shortly. Alrighty then.

msbelle and sara are my homeowning heros.

I am off to costume strike, which I hate. Too many people trying to help. If we didn't have to clear the dressing rooms in order for them to become storage rooms, I woul d not care, but costume strie is all about the laundry, which frankly, you can only do so fast!

Sounds like (an) asylum is exactly what Quaid and the Mrs. need.

What bar, sara?!

I am home on couch! After doing some crafting and having dinner at the restaurant around the corner with my crafty helper! Honestly I am totally ready for bed.

I don't know! In Hampden, I think. Neighbor and I are going.
