and Kanda has been taken care of. The vet kept saying 'wow, he's your buddy' because poor Kanda was trying to meld with my skin. I got him more antibiotics and had his neck shaved. The wound naturally is half healed by now but it IS three weeks out so it's very slow to heal. We talked about Soul. She's never heard of a cat pooping outside of the box to mark territory. She agrees he may be insane. After the porch incident she thinks he wouldn't fair well in her barn but worse comes to worse that's where he's going. As for Kanda he had to have vaccines too so he's pretty upset. He's all head down and refusing to look at me or the others. I guess if someone shaved me and jammed 3 needles into my back fat I wouldn't be having the best day either.

I'm rereading Fahrenheit 451 for banned book week. I'll be reading it on video (if I get a link, I'll share). Reread, ha. It's been nearly 30 years since I've read it and I barely remember it (besides it's creepy opening line). Speaking of creepy, this book brings it, especially now. Bradbury predicted our world. This was published in '53. Montag's wife, like most of the population, doesn't interact with the world anymore. They sit in their parlors interacting with the people on the tv screens. They're each others friends and family. Look at what you're doing right now, staring at a screen talking to your friends and family while others are out there trying to restrict access to knowledge and ideas. Yeah...creepy.

in my nursing class, I have one lone h.s. teacher wannabe and she approached me in the other class she has with me (she needs the human phys because she needs one more 400 level biology before her student teaching starts) and she was horrified at how horrible my students are, facebooking, talking, tweeting etc in class. I'm like y ep, I know and next week, I hand them their tests along with their heads.





Poor Kanda. The white half moon on one side of the bloody wound is the scar from how big the damn hole was in his neck.



This is the informal breakfast nook. Yeah...contemplate THOSE words. I want everything in here

Man, that's a gorgeous breakfast nook. And Kanda, you poor bubby.

I like that the vet thinks Soul's insane. Is he one of Gollum's children, too?

I need to read Fahrenheit 451. I love most of Bradbury's works.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

isn't it wonderful

Poor Kanda the Panda

Yes he's one of Gollum's boys

you'll like it.

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

It is, so very much. I really wish I could've gotten to the Biltmore. What are you doing in August next year?

Kanda needs hugs. And Desserts!

That explains a lot, right there. Gollum was so...odd.

I'm sure I will. I've wanted to see the movie forever.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

working for most of it.

he does.

yes she was. He and Kanda are half brothers

I've never seen the movie

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

Drat, drat.

Find the desserts, Kanda! Find them.

Yeah, I thought they were sibs of some sort. Gollum needs to be fixed. Or something.

I haven't either. I'm pretty sure Rock Hudson is the star.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

why? I finish up summer session in august then start the fall with about a week off.

Gollum hasn't been seen in a year so...

I have no idea

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

If Biltmore offers a discount of over 50% each year in August, that might be the time to go back to Tennessee. Just thinking aghead for a change.

That's probably for the best, Gollum going missing.

That's what I remember reading, at least. I was kind of surprised a SF story would cast Hudson.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

ah yes well that is a good idea

I think it's one of the better things to happen here

we could look it up i supposed

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

I try to think of them?

Yes, as long as people don't dump their kittens/puppies around your apartment.

We could. (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0060390/) Drat, I was wrong. *pouts*

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

there you go

well yes that too

you weren't even close

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

*snicker*

I could swear that he had something to do with it. Maybe he was the first choice and turned the role down?

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

i would have no idea

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

Ah, well. :D

[wildrider.livejournal.com]

Poor Kanda.

Crazy Soul.

I need to read Fahrenheit 451, in my quest to read banned books myself (which is why I just read Slaughterhouse 5... or just books with numbers in the title).

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

poor poor Kanda

Soul just ain't right

It's an easy read but aggravating in that you can see it happening here with people wanting to ban things as innocent as Harry Potter

[wildrider.livejournal.com]

Well, I have known a cat that was just plain crazy, so it's sure possible.

This country is crazier than Soul sometimes.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

i have no doubt of it either. Soul cries in his sleep and wakes up yapping. There is some gear slipping in there

no argument

[sonjajade.livejournal.com]

INFORMAL... breakfast NOOK? suuuuurrrrre 19th century architect. It is lovely though, and I adore those plantation shutters on the windows as well as the stained glass. POOR KANDA! My littlest dog has an eye injury from playing with the biggest dog. but it wasn't a hole like that, my goodness. I snorted at the vet's impression of Soul XD

I think I might go to the library and check out Farenheit 451, we didn't have to read it in school, or animal farm, or catcher in the rye or any or those other famous titles and at the time I was too busy smoking weed and blaring Metallica to give a shit XD

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

yeah i know, lovely isn't it.

Poor pup. And that's healing. Kanda had a nasty bad boo boo

you should. I had to read all of those things while doing that other stuff too

[bay115.livejournal.com]

Glad to hear Kanda is taken care of for the most part. Hopefully the wound will be fully healed soon.

It's been a few years since I read Fahrenheit 451 (had to read it as summer assignment for 10th grade English Honors in high school) and I remember not liking it for some reason, haha. One of my friends love it, though, so I'm considering reading it again one day. You're right though it's pretty creepy the book more or less predicts what is happening now. ._.;

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

Kanda is a sad panda right now

well that's about when I read it too (which is a lot longer ago for me than you). I wanted to reread some of the things of my youth

[caffeinified.livejournal.com]

Poor Kanda, that sounds like a terrible day.

I should put Fahrenheit 451 on my to-read list.

That's a breakfast nook??!?!??? It looks like a dinning room! Beautiful.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

it was just ask him

you should. we all probably should

I know. the rich really are different
