Feb. 17th, 2005 05:28 pmCutiepie, the momma raccoon came by last night. She sat her fanny down and dined on kibble for quite awhile. I bet she's incubating some young ones. She seemed relaxed and was in good condition.
Lost was good last night. All you Sawyer fans will be sqeeing away. *g*
No Garage Guy update to be given. It's been about 11 days since he called and there's been no hangup calls during this time either.

Find out what Bush's Social Security plan will mean for you. I apparently will get a 9% cut per year. Oh joy.
Have I mentioned lately how much fun it's been watching Alias Smith and Jones on Encore Western? They are so very, very pretty (the episodes and/or the actors, take your pick.) The writing was good, too. Mom, who will usually guess what will happen by at least half way through, was flumoxed by Miracle at Santa Marta and 21 Days to Tenstrike. I also have to mention that I've been surprised by the differences in characterizations from what I remembered, to what I'm seeing today. I remembered Heyes and Curry more serious. Curry has some slightly silly moments as the show goes on, and Heyes was actually happy and fun-loving, especially when he was alone with the Kid. I feel like there is a noticible change between Season 1 and 2, and well, the Roger Davis eps are a different show altogether for me. A Roger Davis ep showed today and Mom got up and left, saying she didn't want to see any of those. BTW, she's refused to see any of Meridian, the SG ep where Daniel dies, either. I turned off the AS&J ep soon afterwards; I just wanted to see if my reaction to them had changed in 34 years. It hadn't.
The Winternationals of Drag Racing were last weekend. Even though we live about 3 or 4 miles from the race track, for 4 days we hear what I like to think off as really big dragon farts (no smell, luckily.) There were a couple of advertising blimps (airships) floating about. Have I ever mentioned that Big Reg is afraid of blimps? Most cats never seem to notice aircraft, and Reg doesn't mind helicopters or jets, but should he see a blimp, he races inside somewhat frantic. I wonder what that's all about....
