The two cats seem to be getting along well. There was some hissing and chasing to begin with, but now they touch noses, Corny fights/plays back, and Rex is quite comfy sleeping in the chair, the couch or the other chair or even the floor. I think he is just really really happy to have a safe place to live personally. His eye is getting better too, not dribbling discusting puss anymore, and while not open any better, definatly looking better. He doesn’t invade the bedroom/bed at night though, he probably understands that that is Corny’s domain (and Corny has been sleeping beside me since he was a tiny kitten so he’s got his human (that would be me) well marked out).
Just got back from seeing The Generals Daughter. My quicky review is as follows:
The General’s Daughter was good I thought. The relationship between Travolta and Stowe was a little corny. Haven’t we gotten over the “paired up man and his X-gf” senarios? At least they didn’t end it with something hugely corny like them getting back togeather or saying “why don’t we give it another shot” or something. K had issues with the dialoge between the two… as rape/murder investigators you shouldn’t be so flippant etc. I didn’t mind it so much, I thought Travolta had some great lines and the zingers he put in there were just him being him I thought. The story was disturbing I thought, as any movie about a gang rape will be. Great plot twists and turns, and you don’t know whodunnit till right at the end (many many false endings here, I loved that!). I don’t think it was as great as say The Professional or something like that, but a good movie nontheless, if you can handle the subject matter. I did feel like heckling a few times though, but feared the wrath of the Big Guy Beside Me(tm).
Sillz made it here safe and alive, and Kethryvis made it home, also safe and alive. Too bad they did it 4 days apart 🙂 Oh well, there is a big “meet the tim tam” BBQ that Iambe’s holding in a week and a half or so and she’s going to try to make it back (Keth that is) for that. I hope she does, she seems to really miss Canada (and who can blame her!). Course, they are making Noah’s Ark jokes on the radio, so I hope that the crappy weather (it was raining very hard today in Vancouver, but not here thank the $DEITY) is gone by the time she gets up here. We took Sillz to see Real Snow(tm) last week and she was thrilled! Course, the snow was more like ice from a bunch left by the side of the road by the snowplow up at Cyprus. Old crusty snow. Hopefully we’ll get her up to some real good stuff soon though.
Canada Day! Thursday’s a holiday! Yay! Course this means I have time to do things like get the car fixed, insured, pay BCMed, etc. The pile of Stuff To Take My Money(tm) hasn’t decreased much lately unfortunatly. Oh well… the thing that sucks is my trip to San Jose / LA is kinda based off of my 2nd bank account (the super secret put-only-money-in one) and that’s going to go mostly toward car insurance (as my main account is around $30 now I think). Things seem to be going to be going a lot better at work though, so I will be coming down. Be sure of that. There is far too much down there to see and experience for me to miss out, no matter what 🙂
I’d hate to dissapoint the lasses from far away lands you see.
Oh, and this entry is being done in EMACS (for win32 (stuck here doing docs) no less). So to all those who mock me for trying to learn something new: :P~ PPPPPPPPPHHHHHHHHHHTTTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!
Tis a darn powerful little program anyway, “OS with a good editor built in” jokes aside.
