It seems some of my newer readers were a bit mystified by the nature of George, and read entirely the wrong meaning from my opening paragraph last night. Meet George: See? Definitely a cat, not a man. I hope that alleviates your fears about my morals 😉 (He normally looks a lot darker than in…
We really know how to have an exciting Friday night in the FutureCat household. Like tonight, we spent the evening waiting for George to wee, and then sucking it up through a tube. Bet you don’t have that sort of fun in your house! The reason for all this excitement is that George might have…
Kimi! In other news, congratulations to the USians. I hope your new president turns out to be everything you hope for (at least he’s got to be better than the last guy!). At least there’s been one bit of good election news this week. I suspect I won’t be feeling so pleased on Saturday night…
Only the usual suspects at last night’s meetup – we did think we were going to have a new member along, but she didn’t turn up 🙁 Still, as always it was an enjoyable evening. Not many books swapped (something to do with having seen each other on Friday and Sunday…), but lots of chat…
So far over on LJ there’s two votes for behemoth, one for dragon. You decide:
With 2009 not so much creeping up on us as thundering towards us like stampeding behemoth*, we decided it was about time to get some real information out to people, which meant getting on with a bit of research. So yesterday lytteltonwitch, rarsberry and I met for breakfast (after a bit of a false start…

Which means I can finally concentrate on all the other things I should be getting done – like catching up on writing my blog, maybe… Yeah, right. Lytteltonwitch had her bookcrossing halloween party last night….
(What do you mean, it’s Thursday already? So I’m keeping up my long tradition of never updating my diary on time…) Underneath my desk there are now four boxes: Box 1: Registered books, all labelled and ready for release. Box 2: Books still waiting to be registered (I needed a MUCH longer weekend!) Box 3:…
Went to visit lytteltonwitch at the hospital tonight. She’s looking about as well as can be expected after surgery, which by the sound of things was a bit more complicated than they expected. She was hoping to get out tomorrow, but it looks like they’re going to keep her in for a few more days….
Ok, so I’m a bit late with the meetup report, but I’ve been busy. Work mostly (it’s end of term, plus we’re in full-on planning mode for our exciting new structure next year (wow, you can hardly even hear the cynicism in my voice when I say that, can you?)), but also more fun things…
