Weird Marlowe

I know blogland hates posts about cats but I've just gotta...

Marlowe has developed some very strange behaviour traits that I just have to share with y'all. If I'm going to suffer then you shall suffer with me.

The first super weird thing is that she's started coming into the bathroom while we're in the shower (not together...get your minds out of the gutter), perching on the toilet and as soon as we pull back the curtain, she berates us with an evil, drawn out, mreowwwww! It's a little offputting. This morning she was exceptionally hostile with me. I don't know what it is. Without fail she's there...waiting. Once time I peaked out the other side and it didn't even phase her! MREOWWW! The creature has issues.

The second not so weird but equally annoying thing is that she won't eat her food unless I stand there in the kitchen with her. I can be doing something other than watching her (although she likes this the best I think) but once I leave the kitchen, she stops eating to follow me. It's like she believes that I'm about to dish out the good stuff (read= wet food) in another room. That I'm trying to horde it for myself and Lucy and if she doesn't follow, she's going to miss out.

Man alive the feline's a kook!!!

Rabsappardi Wedding

I prefer to say Rabsappardi although my MC husband said Razzoppardi during the reception. I don't know what he was thinking (or drinking) but we NEVER say Razzoppardi! Oh well.

The misnomer aside, it was a beautiful event. The ceremony was on the back terrace of the Old Mill (stumbling distance from our apartment mind you!) and the reception followed inside in one of the banquet rooms. Table 14 rocked with fancy sparkling guest and conversation and although I was coming down with a terrible cold, I managed to consume my share of the open bar.

Head over to Rabs' blog to check out a couple of gorgeous pics. And keep your fingers crossed that there will be more photos to come.

P.S. I managed to make it into my little blue number from San Fran. Yay me!!! Once I'm over this cold I'll keep up with the gym in the mornings. It's been a good energy / body image booster!!
Speaking of Yay me's....shout out to Uncle B, Auntie K and Cuzin R who have been working really hard and are looking mighty fabulous!! Not that they don't always look fabulous!!!

Fall = New TV Season

I love the new fall season of shows. I wait patiently during the summer throwing my attention into Big Brother and Rockstar but really I'm waiting for the fall line-up to get started. I miss my Grey's Anatomy and My Name is Earl!

Already started are The Amazing Race 10 - which by far my favourite reality show!, Survivor 13 (why am I still watching this?!), ANTM 7 (oooh the bitches!) and The Biggest Loser 3 (or 4, I'm not sure. I couldn't watch it last night but have it waiting on the PVR!).

Coming up I've got the aforementioned, Grey's Anatomy tonight along with My Name is Earl. Then somewhere out there is the return of The Bachelor, this time with a real Prince...right. We'll see how fast he's sucking face with all the beauties! And Boston Legal, which I kind of dropped from the lineup last season because there was just too much to watch and not enough time to watch it all, but I think I'll check in on once it starts again.

I'm thinking of giving Heros a shot as well as Ugly Betty but they had better win me over fast because it's a pretty full schedule as it is.

Wha...husband? Cats? Life?! My life is TV people! I was raised by TV don't you know! It's in my blood. I can't just give it up! What are you crazy?!

Newness

Every few months I get tired of my blog template and look to switch things up. Yesterday I was looking through some new possibilities (read - changes ahead!) and I came across "Photobucket". It's similar to Pica or Hello as a photo sharing / posting site but it's got a couple of cool features.

On the sidebar you will notice the new "widget" created with the help of the folks at Photobucket. I figured out how to add it to the template (had to bring it the width a bit) instead of posting it in the blog. Now it's would always be there for your enjoyment. I'll try and keep the pictures current so you don't get bored.

First installment is the Nephews and their trip to the zoo. Ohh the cuteness!

Do we ROCK or what?!!!

I'm absolutely floored that another Canadian has won the summer reality rock event, Rockstar. Lukas Rossi won last night's finale of the show and I just couldn't believe it. Not that I didn't like him, I did. He was one of the more entertaining performers if maybe not the best singer.

I didn't get into this season like I did last year. Unlike last year, there were no heart throbs like Mig or really fabulous entertainers like Marty Casey but the show kicks Canadian/American Idol's butt because it's about rock and roll and it's about performing and putting on a show. The majority of Canadian / American Idol contestants looks as if they are deer caught in headlights and if, god forbid, they start dancing around the stage, they are easily mistaken for prepubecsent teens with two left feet.

So here's to Canada and here's to Lukas for kicking some rock and roll ass.

clickety clack

I'm ridiculously addicted to Point and Click games. It's on the verge of addicted/obsessive. My boss was away for the majority of last week and of course, I had a lot of free time on my hands. Free time = point and clickery! The moment I realized that "I have a problem" was when I stayed at work until 6pm because I was in the middle of a good game. Then there was yesterday at 5:30 and I realized I hadn't set up a meeting for Monday morning.

Now I'm wondering if there is an AA sort of thing for gamers.
