no one of consequence.

The standard “no cameras allowed” disclamer was on the tickets as per usual. However, after leaving it home for the BNL show, I noted that the ACC doesnt seem to have metal detectors or do a pat-down. They just check handbags. Apparently they’re more concerned with someone daring to sneak bottled water in rather than paying their 200% markup. So this time, I slipped my Elph SD600 into my pocket and left the bag at home.

Have finished the Harry Potter book, I thought it was OK, but not fantastic. Im seriously annoyed that Muggle.net seems to have locked their forums to members only. Dammit, I wanted to observe the fangirl/boy freakouts! I could have sworn I had a login there, but apparently not.

Tonight is The Police concert. YAAAAY.

So tired lately. Havent even been gaming. Prolly from adjusting to having kitty around setting my allergies off at low speed all the time.

Saw the new Harry Potter flick. I give it an 8, good, but rushed.

The newest Residents of Limbo.

Lucky the cat, who may not be a permanant addition, with Lee’s new guitar which IS a permanant addition.

After my last post, there is a kitten in our apartment.

He’s a feisty little bugger. Black short hair who has about six white hairs on him in total. SIL’s boss rescued him off the street at a gas station. The old man has a massive soft spot for strays. He may take him back. Oddly enough he’s thinking of keeping him as a pet who wont mind traveling with him as he drives all over the free world. Strange idea. But for now he’s staying with us, since SIL’s resident Kittehs were hatin on him, and we DO have an awful mouse problem this year. Lee doesn’t seem to be reacting much to him though, and thats a good sign. I think.

The timing is however less than fantastic, since after his arrival we had to tear the place apart. The exterminators are coming, and it was implied they’d be here today to lay down roach gel and crap, so we had to pull everything out from the wall and vacume up all of the Diatomaceous Earth I flung everywhere I could reach after the rescued organ was discovered to be infested.

So kitten + furniture piled in the center of the room = strange day.

Today we went to Home Depot by virtue of my SIL. Mostly we needed moldings to complete our kitchen cabinet refinishing job, and some wood for Lee to build a frame for our soon-to-be wall mounted guitar rack. Both items were acquired, as well as pair of nice ceramic pots for my rapidly growing houseplants.

Sassy_Fae? Remember the baby spider plants you gave me? Well, the variegated one didnt survive last winter (if you have any more babies of that one I’d love one) but the plain-leaf is gone nuts. I have rooted off four babies in the last week, and have just moved it into a deep 9″ pot. It had gotten potbound badly enough that I couldn’t keep it watered in the plastic terra cotta look one I originally repotted it to anymore. So I pawned two of the babies off onto my SIL to take home to mom, and I have two more in a single pot I should probably find homes for.

My Ivy is happy and healthy in the other six inch pot, my herbs are doing well and the Wandering Jew is filling out slowly (I cant find a spot it likes where it isn’t in the way). The Aloe pup I was also given by aforementioned Fae I nearly killed by letting it get frostbitten on a windowsill, but it’s recovering, and the big one I rescued is slightly sun burned but is adjusting to bright light. I have a new plain-leaf philodendron on the shelf over my monitor as of today too.

I cant have pets, but I can at least have plants.
