The Final Countdown (Or A Brief Her-story of Cats)

Not to the end of the world. We all know that's not happening. Trust me, there's Mayan blood in me.

If you really want an unflattering picture of yourself, X-ray effect is the way to go. Go on, smile on camera and you'll know what I'm talking about. Water, on the other hand, looks really nifty.

When I'm not distracted by Photobooth and my uncanny resemblence to an X-men, I'm counting down the days for when I'll be re-united with my love, my precious, my Butters.

Oh, long hair...

Even though she's cat and I'm human, we're like two peas in a pod.*

In exactly one month I'll be flying back home to my Mexico Lindo y Querido and hold my cat in my arms once again.
Thanks to technology (and doting family members), distance hasn't been a huge issue.
We've managed to schedule Facetime chats into our busy schedules.

I look great in Facetime snaps. Ha.

It came as no surprise that she wasn't very keen on talking, but rather rubbing against whoever was holding the iPod and meow-ing for tap water. 

Now children, gather round to hear the story of a cats who won the heart of a Cat Lady...

Photobooth and Boredom: In 3 Panels

I don't believe in that "boring people get bored" quote. We all get bored at one point or other- it can't be helped. 

Well, actually it can, but it takes that much more energy than you're willing to give, most of the times. And who's to say a little down time from the comings & goings & conversations & thinkings isn't good? Maybe boring is when I let all those ideas settle and allow then to come to fruition.

Other days, there's just photobooth. 

You know what? I'm happy. 

I'm obsessed with this I Love Lucy .gif * and I've been trying to emulate her, to no avail nonetheless. (This isn't the hardest of the efforts, by the way)

Anyone else practise making faces in the mirror?

*Insert futuristic space sound effect*

Anecdote of the day: That bandaid you see is from my trip to the hospital today- for a vaccine! I hate needles**, so it was still unenjoyable. I had to go see a doctor beforehand to get "permission" for the vaccine, even though I had my vaccine card with all the information, etc, etc. 

Finally, the time came to get the damn shot. It hurt, a little. And when I was getting ready to leave the nurse asked to take a picture of me, from her phone.

Apparently the doctor asked her to and wanted a photo. 

Yeah. It was awkward.

It's been another "I can't be bothered to dress" day. 

I say you upload a photobooth picture too. You know you want to.

* God, she was so good. Don't believe me? Click here. Or better yet, watch an episode of I Love Lucy. I dare ya. 

** How am I ever going to get that tattoo I want?!
