• Bunnies for sale or rent…

    Dawn wants the auburn-colored bunny, but can’t have it ’cause she lacks space for another rabbit. Even if it is cuter than hers.

    Mari wants one of the bunny-babies, ’cause they’re cuter than all get-out. Sadly, her existing resident pets would see her new pet as a potential light snack. Ah well. Cats and bunnies don’t necessarily mix, now do they?

    Me, I don’t want any of them. They make my nose itch, and they smell funny. They are absolutely adorable, though. Especially that gray one with the long hair and the white paw. Le sigh.

  • Over The Hump

    That’s right, as of this posting I’m officially more than halfway through the Blogathon. You know what that means, don’t you?

    It means we can only go downhill from here.

    Yeah, I know, it scares me too. We may all be in for a bumpy ride…

  • Mari, Blogathon Moral Support Squad

    So Mari dropped by (that’s why she called, see?) to see how I was getting along with this ‘thon thingie. That, and to see bunnies. And hold bunnies. And have bunnies claw her. And gasp as bunnies leaped off of her. And wish she could take a bunny home with her. And call Doug to ask if she could have a bunny. (He said no.)

    She also tried playing a bit of Age of Mythology (you thought I was the one playing, didn’t you?) to see what kind of game Geoffrey’s been raving about all this time. She wasn’t impressed. Too much scrolling and what-not.

    For additional fun, she put combs and crimpy-things in my hair. (Neat trick given my hair, wouldn’t you say?) She’s getting into the hair-braiding thing, and spent part of her time organizing some of her newly-acquired supplies.

    As she was at the point of deciding to go grab some grub and head over to Lil’ and Geoffrey’s… she found that she’d locked her keys in her car. After setting a world record for jimmying her car door with a bent coat-hanger, she finally jetted off for her next rendezvous.

    Thanks for stopping by, Mari! It’s never dull with you around… and we wouldn’t have it any other way.

  • Serial Weirdness Lain

    So this viewing was of the 8th episode, “Rumors.” Near as I can tell, all that’s happened is that the writers have added Yet Another Layer Of Mystery And Weirdness.

    I still want to see how it turns out. I still have hope that there will at least be a point, if not that it’ll make any sense. Each episode has one or two interesting elements that make for good imaginative seed material.

    But is it a good story? I don’t know yet. By the end of the ‘thon, however, I might have an answer. Five episodes to go, and I have at least that many half-hours remaining before I get to sleep, no?

  • Plans For Tomorrow

    Here’s my rough plan for tomorrow:

    12a to 6a: Finish last leg of Blogathon

    6a to (undetermined): Sleep as long as possible

    (undetermined) to (bedtime): Stay the hell off the computer

    Sounds like a great plan, doesn’t it?

    Okay, so I am having fun. Enforced journal writing, however, isn’t exactly the easiest thing in the world, even with as lackadaisical an effort as I’ve been putting forth here.

    Speaking of effort… Surprise, here’s more bunnies!

  • When in doubt, watch anime.

    Well, this episode managed to move things subtly forward and provide a history lesson along with some needed backstory. I’m thankful, very. Who knows, this show may not be so annoying after all.

    Mind you that there’s still almost ninety minutes’ worth of material still to get through before I’ll know for sure.

    I’m going to spend some time putting the kids to bed and puttering around the house. I need to move around, ya know?
