Hot Dog into a Frozen Wave

Let's see.... what have I been up to this month.... 

Lots of the same.

Sundays are spent with the Daddy. :-) Sadly, we spend way more time shopping than movie watching. Late starts to the day, lots of dawdling (on both our parts :-P ), and multiple errands tend to cut movie watching time down. Doesn't mean fun isn't had along the way!

Monday mornings (and the occasional Tuesday morning), Dad brings breakfast after picking up his job for the week. :-)

Tuesdays are always fun filled with fun and silliness at Target and dindin picked up from Fantastic Cafe. This last Tuesday I rescued a fallen hero.....Some fiend had carelessly left the Batman (stuffed toy :-P ) on the floor. I swooped in (sadly no cape) and picked him up. He didn't even say thank you. Hero work is thankless. Le sigh.

The rest of the week is well quiet apart from the occasional moments of silliness with Mama and the antics of our four fur-balls.

K... Now for the highlights....

The kittens showed up. Spumoni had four kittens (that we know of). She looked bigger this time around, so we thought she'd deliver more than last time (Kumquat and Paprika were two of five). But either she just ate better this time or some of them didn't make it. Poor baby. I've of course temporarily nicknamed them. Tablet (another orange tabby), Calicket/Caliquette (a calico I clearly haven't figured out how to spell the name of), Cottonball (a mostly white kitten with calico coloring on her head and tail), and Fluffball (a fluffy orange and white kitten). They've been living in our landlord's shed, next to our house. They're still skiddish, but Tablet and Calicquette are brave enough to play with my fingers under the security door. Along with feeding them, we kinda have to feed Tom-Dick-or-Harry as he won't let them eat otherwise. Oy.

Mom and I spent last couple of weekends watching movies. :-D Weekend before last she had Friday off due to shift trade, so we watched movies after her appointment. And then another the next day after she got off work. Last weekend, she had a three day weekend and we spent one of them watching the last two movies. Oh, we were watching the entire Fast and Furious series in preparation for going to see the new one (more on that another time). We plan to make movie watching a habit again. Been too long.

Spiffiest highlight of the month? Mom and I got new phones! :-D THANK YOU, DADDY! Late b-day gift for moi and Mama's Day gift for her. We have now entered the world of smartphones. Real smartphones not just the sorta smart ones we had before. Woohooo! SOOOOO many bells and whistles on them. Two weeks in and we're STILL discovering this fun thing or that cool trick, I love it. Samsung Galaxy S4..... Newer and spiffier than Dad's, so he whines. Hehehe... I love it even more now that I worked out how to Doctor Who-ized it. Yay.

ANYwho... Babbled on long enough. I'm sure I'll have more to babble about later. But it's almost midnight and I had wanted this to be May's post not June's. :-P
