is sad

[cornerofmadness]

Geraldine Ferraro and Diane Wynn Jones both died (and right on the heels of Elizabeth Taylor too)

I admired Ferraro so much when I was a young girl. She was too ahead of her time (sad to think that in 81 we couldn't even concieve of a woman running this country).

And I will really really miss Diane's stories. I adore Howl more than I can say. When I finished House of Many Ways in which Howl and Sophie were secondary characters she said she was going to write another story where they were central again. One article I read said she did have another novel or two finished so maybe I'll get a chance to visit with them again. You'll be sorely missed Ms Wynn Jones.

While I was up washing the clothes the local weather kept saying it was going to snow up to 3 inches tonight/tomorrow so I just went straight to the grocery store. Ah Spring, nearly 80 last saturday, this saturday it's trying to snow.

At Krogers I spotted something I never thought I would. I've only seen these products in Think Geek. They had J&D's Bacon popcorn. I had to have it (don't hate me). I know no good could come of it but I just had to have it. Mostly the bacon salt stuck to the packaging. Note to self shake harder.

I think Kanda has SAD. I swear. Once winter rolled around he became an old man. I thought maybe it had to do with Soul coming in the house. All Kanda did was lie around. No more jumping off the walls. No more coming in the tub. But now that it temporarily warmed up he's doing all those things again.

THANKS to everyone weighing in on my traveling to the UK post. it's much appreciated.





I did take a lot of pictures today but the camera is elsewhere so have more wet Rogue

ahahaha to wet Rogue.

Kanda with SAD? I suppose it could happen. Interesting. x_expat might know.

I've seen that bacon popcorn and thought it was too frightening to buy.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

poor Rogue

She might. It's odd. He's back to his old tricks now. Might just be insane.

I had to have it (I also wanted the bacon and horseradish dip but i didn't buy that!)

He's a cat?

So, you're going to give us a description of this popcorn, right? From opening the bag to sticking it in the nuker to ripping open the bag to tasting, right?

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

yes exactly

Oh i could indeed do that. THey put effort into the packaging

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

Maybe a photo montage. Because that'd be way cool.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

Nooooooo, I want a photo montage!

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

i am too lazy for that

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

Pffft.

Oh poor Rogue.

Well hey I had a dog who seemed very depressed, it took a trip to the vet to be diagnosed with SAD! That's when Ishte was living here, I put a multi-spectrum light bulb in the study, and within a month he perked right up.

So if a dog can get it, why not a cat?

I have never even heard of bacon popcorn! But it sounds awesome. I have this theory that anything is awesome with bacon.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

that is the makers theory as well. More on the popcorn later today

I've seen the movie version Of Howl. It never occured to me that it was originally a novel.

It snowed here also. I'm tired of the cold weather.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

The book version is considerable different than the movie. I love them both

I'm ok with the cold. it's the spring pollen i can live without
