picspam, library squeeing and FMA rambling

just what you all have been waiting for KITTIES

proof that frick and frack can get along…when it’s raining and they don’t want out

the parentals’ tub of lard


the touch my belly trap

the creative sleeper

you are SOOOOO dead


I can’t even look at you

Some Highlights from the cat show

Maine Coon Cat

Egyptian Maus, I like this breed

most perfect trappings

my favorite sphinx picture...am I cat or a potbellied pig

how to look like you tried suicide over the weekend (damn cat)

the highlight of McArthur…a really scary hotel that is MUCH older than the general, 1839

disgustingly cute Black Forest style cottage. seriously if it wasn't SO far out in the middle of nowhere OH, I'd be tempted to buy it's lookalike neighbor

latest mehndi.

So library...well technically the book sale was over but they had the leftovers out with a 'full bag for a dollar sign'. How many books can i fit in a plastic bag? An obscene amount as it turns out. I didn't have [livejournal.com profile] sp23's restraint...



Well not really. It was good. I mean, I've never liked this story. I think that has to do with Rose. Her jell-o spined nature just irritates me like a cheesegrater on skin. She really garners no sympathy from me and I hope we stick with the manga enough that we never see her again except for a bit part WAY down the road

What amused me most with this one was Ed's potty mouth and the fact that Aussie TV allows for them to actually translate that out as Fuck. Oh Ed how cleansed is your speech by the time it gets to America?

And seriously if you got your mother back the first thing she's do is soap your mouth.


hmmm can't stablize my sugar tonight. Even though dinner was a rare trip to KFC (reminding me WHY I never eat there) it had breading and a biscuit with honey but my sugar keeps crashing and I've had a TON of sugar since. bah

I love Maus.. they are just lovely.

I loved the translation of Ed's potty mouth too. I don't mind Roze. i think she is weak in order to give Ed the opportunity to show his own strength, and some contrast between them when he says "Stand up, Move Forward. You've got two good legs." because he DOESN'T have two legs. but he found a way to stand up and move forward anyway. She knows that, so in that regard he teaches her something about having her own strength. And i think she does stand up and move forward. later when she appears, she seems to be doing more to help her people rather than clinging to some false religion, hoping to get her boyfriend back and wanting someone to take care of her. Seems like she kind of takes command of Hohenheim and puts him to work doesn't she? So she's kind of a study in contrasts too.

Maus really are

I'll give you that point about Rose being a good set up for Ed's line.

And manga Rose at least grows but i think I was far too soured b y anime Rose/Noa to give a damn by then
