Just a quick up date. It's hot, hot, hot outside--105. And I'll be driving off to a long weekend in Las Vegas where it is 106. Joy. But I will have friends and laughter and alcohol and fannish conversations. Indoors. It will all be indoors unless there's a pool involved. Better yet!

Saw Buddy last night. He was MIA for two days after we made the break though. We were feeling pretty tense about him missing, but he strolled back into the house complaining all the way.

Made a little break through with Emma last night. I hung upside down off the bed and using a flashlight and a mirror, was able to entice her to play a little bit with that cat toy on a stick. She looked yearning for a while and finally couldn't resist and batted it a few times. Then she looked a bit alarmed, turned around and wouldn't participate anymore. Then this morning when I opened the door to say hi, she was on the bed and gave me a belligerent look like 'you gonna make me leave?' That's great! She's feeling like she has rights, so that's a good step forward. But I'm leaving 5 days. I've encouraged Mom to keep interacting with her. Finger's crossed!

Hey, I've filled up my 16g iPod Touch. I guess that means I can move up to a new level of toys. *g* I was thinking about an Archos 5 or 7 or something. Anyone have any opinions about that? I thought I'd try something that isn't all proprietary.

Anyway, you all have fun this weekend!

I was downsized from work after four hours. At 10:30pm not much is open. So, I watched the Tuesday shows (The Mentalist is getting better with more empathy from the main character and less smirking. A really good direction for it.) NCIS was good as usual. I didn't find Ducky referring to one of the cast as a Narcissistic personality offensive at all, but I'm not all that crazy about that character. And I'm still getting caught up on Without a Trace. Can LaPaglia play Jack any more creepier than he is doing? This character bears no resemblance to the guy that was in the first season. Blah!

So, I went back to downloading music. Tonight's big conundrum is trying to find the right version of Jesus Christ Superstar. I suppose the right version is the version one first hears. It turns out I own three copies of JC, SS and none of them are the right one. I suspect that the one they played on the radio was the first one, the concept album they made before they put together the musical. Isn't that strange to think? Andrew Lloyd Weber didn't get a blank check to do the play right off. But it was pretty radical for the time--rock music sullying religion. Horrors!!

Another odd thing was that it took my sound track of Local Hero by Mark Knopfler and split it into 7 different albums. Very odd.
