Birthday Wishes

Once again some early, some late and some on time. I even tried to make a birthday graphic (scroll down to see why I never do this. Paint sucks).I figured almost all the birthday people this week came to me by hook or by crook via Buffy the Vampire Slayer so I went looking for a group graphic (forgetting I had a whole file of them), could only find Riley season group photos so took what is probably someone's manip. Still, the thought that counts. Happy Birthday to a2zmom, mamculuna, cala_jane, vampedvixen & atpolittlebit

Hope you had/will have a great day.

Dancing around the sausage tree

If you don't know what that means, that just means you don't live in the same hell as I do. Today is Bob Evans Farm Festival day which is a service day for the students (i.e. most of them work it and we'll get @ 100,000 people through here). Means I get off! I took a pass this year. No one i know likes country crafts and if I buy one more pendant I should be shot.

I'm going to the anime con in Huntington WV. In theory. If I feel like I did today, then no. I'm just wiped out for no known reason other than I slept poorly. Just as I was going to bed, there was this loud noise. I went to see wtf the cats are doing and they're staring at the floor. I think a opposum or coon was under the apartment.

Of course stress is doing it to me too. Soul is being so very friendly now. Today he lept up on the tub and for the first time ever, i hear him purr when I petted him. It didn't last but a second or two. But he will not use the litter so I can not keep him here. I finally got up the nerve to call a local no kill (i finally found one) but there was no answer time and again so I gave up. This is killing me. WHen Soul goes he'll be the third cat I've lost this year.

As for the con I'm not sure if there'll be photos since I'll be alone (though my students might be there). I'm reviving Madame Christmas since well I already wear 90% of her outfit. all I need to do is fix up the jacket and I'm screwed on the hair but oh well. I learned that no one wants to be a brunette.I can find blonde, blue, black, red, pink but no brown. sigh. I had a black that would be more like kimbley but now it's black and white which i don't remember getting so no go there.
