If it's Sunday it Must Be the Vancouver City Dump

Today we went to the city dump to throw some stuff out. Very exciting, because I've never been to a dump before. When I hear dump I just picture a big pile of garbage, but it was all very high tech.

still not sleeping

Watching Murder at 1600. Snipes is cute. Fiddling around with my blogs. Yesterday I finally killed the religion one, and replaced it with a writing one. I wasn't going to have a writing blog... not sure what I'll ever say on it... but one of the agents whose blogs I read says everyone needs a web presence of some kind. I'm not gonna run out and buy a dot com just yet. ! That falls under the category of "fantasizing rather than doing real work".

I don't know whether to watch the rest of this movie, or go to bed. Let's just check the time... it goes for another hour and a half! Forget it.

I'm sleepy like a sleepy moze-foze but don't feel like going to bed.

If it's... bah I don't know anymore.

Wow. I watched yet another adultery movie. Talk about theme of the month!

Today I did nothing but sit on the couch. But here are photos from yesterday's walk...

What the menowz! I FINALLY get into the right mood to open up my novel, give it a last re-read/edit, and write up the outline at the same time... and realize that the version on this computer is not the most recent. I mostly wrote the story on my desktop.

If it's Thursday it Must Be Vancouver

Not much to report today. It was hot and sunny, I had trouble reading my book out of doors. I just ate and watched TV. Dug out my mother's books so she can do a little purging (not the Eating Disorder kind.) It's now that time of night when I look for a good movie on tv, and only find Cedric the Entertainer Goes on Vacation, or movies about adultery.

Let's see...
- robber trying to turn life around has to do one more heist (if Hollywood is to be believed, all bank robberies are by wannabe reforming robbers)
- Claude Rains and dinosaurs
- here's the kind of movie description I love: "An American photojournalist shows up unannounced on his estranged sister's doorstep in rural Nova Scotia." How long is that movie... about one minute? "Hey." "Hey. Long time no see. ...Come in." The End.
- movie about blood diamonds -- no
- vet assistant stitches body parts together to make herself some friends
- Seven -- er, no, don't need to see that twice
- Stephen King story... hmmeh
- movie about adultery (Fatal Attraction)
- Mask -- seen it
- Rounders -- seen it

Sigh. When I was in school I swear every channel was constantly showing something amazing!

SCENES FROM A DAY:

Since seeking out scary things in the Step-mommy room, I thought I would seek out scary things in Mommy Yard. Now suspect she is involved in Dark Arts.

Headless Dragon

Donkey talisman found in shed, no doubt to
ward off gnome thieves.

Prettier things... little flowers

guarded by scary thorns.

Less rare, but less dangerous flowers.

And the animals...

While the dogs are out.

Nature Boy
(who now follows me everywhere)

Sassy

Oasis with his pretty green eyes
He finally climbed up for a schnoogle today

Later: napping Eddy

Napping Rockster

A cat tree hidden in the grasses!
Now that's the life.
