Varmit report
Jun. 12th, 2007 12:55 pmA coon came by last night. She plopped down next to the water bowl, had a long drink and then started to groom her tummy. The angle was bad so I couldn't see if she had milk on board, but with the excessive grooming, I'm hopeful she has a family stashed nearby.
Momma skunks and her 4 babies continue to supply much amusement. For a few days, these little guys didn't go anywhere unless they were all side by side, so you'd get this erratically moving bouquet of black bottle brushes scurrying by the window one way before they'd suddenly reverse. Think of a all bouncing around in a pinball machine. Now, they go about on their own and it's like having four pinballs in play at the same time.
When momma coon was grooming, momma skunk snuck up on her, very concerned and cautious, obviously trying to suss out if she should be concerned. Apparently ignoring others is the proper response and she passed muster.
Brindle's toes are almost normal, but his skin allergy is flaring up. He must have gotten some of Scooter's fish flavored food. I was trying to watch SGA's Submersion around a pastel orange purring fluff ball squeezed up under my chin; it kind of spoiled the scariness. *g*
In other news, I was watching the noon news, Paris this, Paris that, then a fellow with an accent said that Sheriff Baca needed to explain yadda yadda, but what I heard and gave me pause was that "Chewbacca needed to explain why he released Paris Hilton." I had to take a moment and picture that in my mind...Paris on the Millennium Falcon....
And now I must go take a nap in preparation to work my ass off for the next three nights.
Woe.

Date: 2007-06-18 10:40 am (UTC)I try to take avi of the little skunks, but when the light is good, they just run down the hill and stick their faces into the food and eat and eat and eat. It's not til it dark out that they start playing with each other. I'm leaving the camera out so maybe soon I'll catch some decent footage. Planet Earth, I'm not!
Yeah, ol' Chewie is looking rather pretty bad right now.
So, you've fallen for the Dresden Files! Just the tv show or have you read all the books, too?

Date: 2007-06-19 01:50 am (UTC)I have read one of the books and have several more, and will be reading all the books eventually. They are so different that, like other people have said, I think of them as two different universes, the books and the tv-verse. I prefer TV-verse for Harry/Bob of course. It would *really* be difficult in the book-verse ;-)
